THE SULTAN ALONE.

Shown by Recent RefusaIs That he Has
Not Bncker in All Europe.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Dec. 4-Diligent in
quiry here among the diplomatic corps
and Turkish government officials,
failed to obtain confirmation of the re-
port that Sir Philip Currie had said he
would force a passage of gun boats
through the DardaneIes Saturday if the
drmans were not forthcoming.
1t became known today, to the surprise
OF the skeptics, that Russia ia really in
accord with the powers, and that the sui
tan need look for no sympathy from the
car.
When Great Britain threaten to force
the passage of the Dardanelles the sultan
appealed personally to Russia, Austria,
Germany and France, begging them not
to press their demands. In no case did
he meet with success.
Thus apparently the sultan was shown
that he no longer has hacker in Eu-
rope. It is understood that the corcen-
tration of troops at Marash is about com
pleted and the advance upon Zeitoun
may be expected at any time
The general opinion is that the Ar
menians of Zeitoun will be shown no
mercy.
Turkish officials at Erzeroum, Ersing-
Jan, Baiburt and Bitlis continue to force
the Armenians, under penalty of impris-
onment and torture to sign addresses of
gratitude TO the Turkish government for
the protection" extended to them by the
local officials and others during the
''recent disorders"
The police here have resumed making
arrests of Armenians At the rate they
are Low working, they should be able to
thin down the Armenian population of
Constantinople very considerably before
the new year.
The Armenian patriarch has issued an
appeal to the Armenians throughout the
world and to all christian nations, ask
Ing them to send help to relieve the
misery.

Scheme to Form a Spring Cir
cult in the West.
Will Include Kansas City, To-
peka, st. Joe and Lincoln.
OTHER HORSE NEWS
John Seely Will Handle Miss
Anna Wilson's Horses.
Walter Veale Brings a Pair of
PAGERS from Texas.

Topeka may have two race meetings
next year for the light harness horses.
The big one in the fall during festival
week is practically agreed on. There is
now movement on foot to have a spring
meeting at the fair grounds track.
The scheme is to get up a spring cir
cult in the west. 1t is to include Kansas
City, Topeka, St. Joseph and Lincoln,
probably in the order named. There
will be four weeks of racing, one week,
or the greater part of it, at each town.
The circuit will begin about the middle
of May and last until the latter part of
June.
This is good scheme, and should be
pushed along. Topeka can stand two
meetings a year, while the other towns
in the circuit have that many every year.
1t ought not only to be success of its
own merit, but it would work up great
interest for the big meeting to be held
carnival week, the last week in Septem-
Der. 1t would be a great thing to keep
racing alive in the town.

PULLING THE LIONS TAIL.
That's What London Papers Think of
Mr.. CIeveIand's Venezuelan Talk.

That's What London Papers Think of
Mr.. CIeveIand's Venezuelan Talk.
LONDON, Dec. 4.-Referring to Presi-
dent Cleveland's message the St. James
Gazette this afternoon says: "There is
nothing whatever of the lingo in Mr..
Cleveland's message. In spite of all asser-
tions to the contrary, there is not the
least probability that the United States
will put any obstacles in the way of a
proper settlement in Venezuela"
The Pall-Mall Gazette remarks: $50
far as our relations with America are
concerned, the message is not likely to
raise any unpleasant questions; but we
fail to see how Mr.. Clevelsnd's definition
OF Monroeism applies to Venezuela"
The Globe says: There is nothing sur
prising in the fact that the Monroe doc
trine bulks rather largely in the message
nor in the hostile tone adopted towards
England. Isn't the presidential election
drawing nigh? Pulling the lions tail
may look to the old world as curious
way to catch fish, but it has been found
to answer in the turbid waters of Ameri-
can politics."

Again Breaks
All Records.

This is the greatest show
ing the STATE JOURNAL has
ever been able to make for
q period of any six months
in its history.
This is greater figure
than was reached by any
daily paper in Topeka for
the year 1894. The Ameri-
can Newspaper Directory,
issued in June, 1895, and
covering the year 1894, gives
the average daily circula-
ton Of the Topeka Daily
Capital for the year 1894, as
only STA. These figures
were furnished by the pub
fishers Of the Capital, to the
Directory, and are guaran-
teed to be correct by a for
felt of 500, which will be
paid to any one disproving
their correctness.
The following figures, sub.
stantiated by sworn state
ments in detail, giving every
issue for the first six months
in 1893, 1894 and 1895, shows

The boast Of the Topeka

proves the meagerness of its
local circulation as COM
pared with that of the STATE

paid on any circulation
