PARIS. Nov. 7.-At a meeting here to-
day OF delegates representing Armenian

WASHINGTON, Nov. THE Turkish
legation announces the following tele-
gram from the sublime porte under yes
terday's date:
All the news concerning plots, threat
ening letters and supposed uissatIsfac-
ton in the ranks of the army and navy is
Intentionally propagated by well known
newspaper correspondents affiliated with
the Armenian committee to alarm public
opinion. As for the oft repeated asser-
ton of the intended determination of the
Armenians, it is too absurd to be con-
tradicted. Tho efforts of the imperial
government tend, on the contrary, to
quell the revolt of the Armenians. an to
resist their criminal and bloody agita-
tion.
THE Armenian agitation at Diarbekir
was on the point of subsiding when the
Armenians began again their attacks on
the Mussulmans by throwing bombs at
them and by firing at the Muzzeins at
the very tire when the latter we're call
ing the faithful to prayers. During the
ARRAY fifty Mussulmans and ninety Ar
menians were killed and wounded.
Armenlnn rioters attacked the patrols
at Sivrik, killing few Mussulmans and
setting fire to the bazaar. Two hundred
Armenian revolutionists living at Xiv

tackled the village Of LehouKour Hissar
anu killed twelve Mussulmans.
Some of the agitators were arrested.
including part of the Armenian Drigands
who captured Hadji Hassan Oglouhousni.
All news published as to the occurrence
OF trouble at Adana. Taisus and Mesiner
is absolutely without foundation.

reform. and counted upon ngland's gen.
crosby not to increase the difficulties by

Constantinople correspondent, whose
sympatnies lean toward the Armenian
side, admits that the Moslem attacks
have aroused such a spirit of opposition
