made spring for the emergency brake, but

EFFORTS TO SUPPRESS NEWS OF
THE OUTRAGEs IN ARMENIA.

The Off1cia1s EOpen AL Letters and News
papers Are Forbidden Even to Print the
Word "Armenia"-The Armenians
Think the Sultan Would Redress Their
Wrongs If He Knew.
London. December l0.-The Daily News
correspondent in Constantinople writes:
ssDenials of the general story of the out
RACES in Armenia are as foolish and mutu-
ally contradictory as after sthe Bulg garian
massacre. Evidence induces the opinion
that they cannot be compared with the
latter as regards the number killed and
villages Lurned."
In commenting on the efforts of the Tur-
kish officials to prevent the news from leak
ing out, the correspondent says: "Letters
are being ruthlessly opened and nobody
dares to allude to the outrages in more than
general terms. Newspapers here are for
hidden to mention them except as they
receive official communication. They are
forbidden to use the word Armenia
The correspondent ascribes the difficulty
of 5ettering the condition Of the Armenians
since 1878, to the fact that England, alone,
directed the Porte's attention to the abuses
of the administration in Asia Minor. and
the obliga gatiops OF the Berlin treaty. He
finds in Constantinople the belief that Eng
land is in sympathy with the Armenian
revolutionary movements. Affairs in
Armenia have grown worse. he says, since
the system of appointing local governors
was abandoned. All officials are now ap-
pointed in Constantinople and they obtain.
often, the positions. by corruptss intrigue.
These men control everything and prevent
the news of their conduct from reaching the
Sultan. AImenians are strongly convinced
that if the sultan knew all, he would
redress their wrongs. Kurdis have become
more aggressive in recent years. They pro-
fess to act in accord With the wishes of the
Porte and are almost as savage as Indians.
While Armenian committees in foreign
countries usually have worked legally there
have been agents in Armenia forming
secret societies and fomenting revolution.
These and their followers are ready to re-
sort to violence. The great majority of
Armenians are obedient subjects.
