London. Nov 5.-The papers here in
their issues tomorrow will give promi-
nence TO a dispatch from Rome giving
the text of dispatch received there from
Constantinople. The dispatch. which is
dated Nov 5, says that owing TO the
news regarding constantly recurring dis
turbances to the detriment of Christians
of all nationalities, in various parts of
the Turkish empire, the ambassadors Of
the great powers went separately to the
porte to-day TO urge the immediate adop-
tion of adequate measures to bring about
the restoration of order. and to declare
that If such measures were not adopted
the powers would decide in concert upon
the steps to be taken. The ambassadors
required Said Pasha. the foreign minis
ter, to state what the government in
tended to 90 to terminate the state Of
anarchy at present prevailing.
The dispatch says that the mudler OF
Moosh requested Mr.. Sampson, the British
consul, to stop Messrs. Cole and Reynolds
from distributing the fund for the relief
of the Armenians. The mudier promised
immediate reforms IL the missionaries
departed. but declared that II they did
not. he would destroy the remainder Of
the Armenians in Sassoun.
Mr.. Sampson declined to aooede 70 the
request on the ground that the mission
aries were acting under their embassy
authority. kaimal pasha, the grand vi
zier, was warned Of the mudier's threat
by the Hon. NJ. III. Herbet British charge
d AFFAIRS. and he telegraphed to the mudicr
to leave the missionaries alone.
The Post, commenting on the dispatch,
will tomorrow say: "rhe demands made
by the ambassadors far exceed what is re-
quired by the treaty of Berlin. The re-
suits Of the reported step cannot fail to
be most portenuous, and 1t must most
earnestly be hoped that they VIII be con-
sidered before the powers finally embark
upon the policy foreshadOwed. The ann
bassadOrS have incurred terrible respon-
sibility. They have hinted a threat which
means nothing less than the occupation
of Turkey"
The Daily Times will say that this Is
the beginning of the end. Joint inter-
vention by the powers whcihs signed the
treaty Of Berlin would be the end of Turk
ish Independence. 1t would be good
thing. too. Turkey Is now within meas
urabie distance of disruption and parti-
ton"
The Times will tomorrow publish
pondent saying that the diplomatic and
private versions of the troubles in Diar-
bekir viii develop a new version OF the
massacre, Nobody knowing the country

menians attacked the mosques. one en-
bassy learns that the Kurds were the un-
provoked aggressors. The massacre be-
gan on Friday and continued Saturday
and Sunday with Unsuitable and sangui-
nary ferocity.
The correspondent further SAYS he be-
lipVpg that y
to cooperate II Intervention becomes nee
essary, adding that such Intervention GER
tainly looms on the horizon.
The Chronicle will tomorrow publish
dispatch from Constantinople saying that

ing together.
