Funeral Directors Adjourn.

Atlanta, Oct. 3.-The national associa- ton of funeral directors today reelected w. P. Hohenschoh of Iowa City, Ia., pres ident. The other officers were elected as follows:
 ce-presidents, F. w. Dickinson, Springfield Mass; Jacob Fischer, Chest nut Hill, Pa, and J. G. B. Hickman, But Ter, Mo-; secretary, John H. sharon, Ali ance O.; treasurer, Charles A. Miller, Cincinnati. The executive committee will be appointed by the president.
 A resolution was introducefand adopt ed to the effect that the national baggage association be requested to amend their laws governing the shipping of dead bodies SO that the family of deceased shall retain the shipping permit. This was done for the protection of the family. It is seldom that a body is miscarried, but if at any time the body should be miscarried the family will have the ship ping permit, which would establish their claim to the body if 1t was lost. A com mittee on state organization was ap- pointed. ~
 The association adjourned to meet In Boston next October. ays l.

NO FIGHTING IN TEXAS.
The Legislature Passed the Bill and th
 Governor Signed It.

Governor Signed It.
 Austin, Tex, Oct. 3.-The great prize fight legislation is over with, and the anti-prize fight bill, which was passed by both houses yesterday. was sent to the governor this evening by the sen- ate and he signed it at , o'clock. It is now a law. This setteIs a question which has been agitating the state for two months past, and everybody is glad it is over with.
 Governor Culberson received many congratulatory telegrams from every sec tion, and he says he feels very proud of the way the legislature has backed him up in this matter. The representa- lives say that private advices to them from their homes give evidence that in voting to quarantine prize fighting from Texas soil they have done that which meets with univeral approval. The ex- citement being over now the hotel lob bies are clear. The legislature will ad- journ sine die on Monday, but will in the meantime consider some local bills.

ARMENIAN TROUBLES.
The Sultan Is Sick and Crisis Is Felt to Be
 Imminent.

London, Oct. 3.-The Standard tomor- row will publish a dispatch from Con stantinople, saying that on Wednesday large number of shops were closed and the streets were patrolled by the police. The whole city is virtually in state of siege.
 The dispatch adds that a witness of the occurrence states that respectable look ing Armenian was arrested by two gen dearmes on Tuesday while walking in the Galata quarter When he protested against being arrested the gendarmes immediately riped his body open with their swords.
 The Armenian patriarch read letter on Tuesday inviting him to call upon the government. The letter stated that none of his. followers would be permitted to follow him. The patriarch therefore declined to accept the invitation, and re- mains at the patriarchiate, where he is shut in with several armed Armenians. The officials visited the patriarchiate and summoned its occupants to surren- der, giving them until 3 o'clock this Wednesday, afternoon to comply, when if they did not surrender, the building would be stormed. The dispatch adds that at the time mentioned the police surrounded the building and prepared to carry out their threat to storm it.
 Reviewing the incident it appears that the police generally were not supplied with ball cartridges. They were in structed to use the flats of their swords and the butts of their rifles. Such provo cation as they gave in the first instance was verbal. The Armenians fired first. With the exception of the massacre of the prisoners the most violence was com mitted by the Softas and the lowest class of MoslemS, none of whom however, appears to have been arrested or other wise checked. Doubtless the Armenians will be made to pay dearly for the out burst, but having provoked reprisals it will be difficult for the powers to inter- vene.
 Great consternation prevails at the pal ace. The sultan has been in bed since Monday It is felt that crisis has ar rived. No such terror has prevailed since the Greek revolution.
 A later dispatch to the Standard says that the threat to storm the patriarch has not yet been carried out. The church officials declare that they are not able to compel the refugees to leave the build ing and the latter decline to leave tn eir shelter. It is to be hoped that the police will not resort to force, as in that event @ fearful massacre would inevitably fol- low. The refugees are huddled together in the building with hardly standing room. They depend upon scraps brought to them for food. Seven corpses have been buried.
 The Standard will tomorrow say that the sole redeeming flea ture of the affair is the appointment of Kiamil Pasha as grand viZier He is one of the few Turkish officials having influence whom foreigners can regard with confidence. The paper again attacks the agitato who organized the armed procession, and says these men are the worst enemies of the Christian population in Armenia.
Birmingham state herald., 1895-10-04
Police Fired First.

Constantinople, Oct. 3.-The reports that the Armenians who were arrested for taking part in Mondays and Tues days rioting were killed by being taken into custody have been confirmed. It is known to a certainty that five of the prs- oners were so killed, and it would excite no surprise to hear that others met their death in the same manner. Eye witnesses of the rioting say that the Armenians did not discharge their fire arms until Major Srewet Bey ordered the police to fire upon them.
 Turkish officials view the troubles as being the direct outcome of the agitation in Europe. especially in Great Britain in favor of the Armenians as again the Turks. The foreign diplomats here met today at the Austrian embassy and held a conference on the situation.
