women of the surrounding localities.
They slaughtered in the most horrible
manner the nine men after cutting their
ears off and gouging their eyes out. and
took away with them the two women.
This act of cruelty and robbery. like all
those previously described. could not have
been executed by the Armenian insti-
gators but with the object of provoking
similar acts on the part of the MuSSul-
man inhabitants against the non-MuSSul-
mans and of gaining. by this atrociouS
way. the whole public opinion in their
favor. 1t is unnecessary to say that
the imperial authorities display all their
efforts to prevent the repetition of such
occurrences.

THAT THE DISTINGUISHED SAID
PASHA SHOULD SEEK REFUGE
is AMPLE PROOF.
THE SULTAN'S DUPuC|TY DISPLAYED
Emer Bey, Removed From the Governor
ship of Hadjin Through Minister Ter
rell, is Given a Better Position.
Interior Still Excited.

Constantinople, Dec 6, via Sofia, Bull
garia, Dec. TURKS are pretty gener-
ally admitting the fact that so distin-
guished a person and so well known a
patriot as Said Pasha should shelter with
foreign power is proof positive of the
gravity of the present situation. 1t is
acknowledged ON all sides that unless
the palace clique can be broken up, a
government by the sublime porte will be
rendered impossible.
At meeting of the ambassadors, reso-
lutions were adopted to the effect that
the powers will support Said Pasha in
the event of his agreeing to accept the
Office of grand vizier, but it is not prob
able that he will again take up the duties
of that Office after seeking refuge from
the wrath of the sultan.
1t is believed that Said PaSha is de-
sirous of leaving the country, but he
will not quit the shelter of the British
embassy except with guarantee from
all the powers.
Since last Wednesday a strict watch
has been kept upon the British embassy
by Turkish detectives. All night long
the Cockatrice and the Image, the latter
the steam yacht belonging to the Brit
ish ambassador, have been surrounded
by small boats containing the secret
agents of the Turkish government, the
officials fearing that Said Pasha might
try TO board the British guardship. 1t
is understood that Sir Phillip Currie has
lodged a vigorous protest against this
system of espionage. There has been
n " chon in, ho &c
the guardships.
A telegram from Caesara was received
at the Bible house today, announcing the
safety of all the missionaries at that
point.
Even the Turkish accounts admit that
200 Armenians were killed in the mas
sacre at Caesara on November 20.
Much apprehension is now felt for the
safety of the missionaries at BitliS and
kharput. Owing to lack of confidence
entertained in the escorts furnished by
the officials. the missionaries are afraid
TO leave. These two towns are regard
ed as especially dangerous posts. al
though the missionaries at Bitlis con-
tinue to appear upon the streets. Gen
eral Knapp was, however, attacked by
Turks three weeks ago and since then
he has been obliged to keep in the house
altogether.
Emer Bey. recently governor at Had
jim. deprived of his post through the rep
resentations of United States Minister
Terrell. has been appointed governor at
1arsuS. which is regarded as a better
position.
According TO last reports. the three
American women, Mrs. Jos. L. Coffing.
of Dresden. Ohio; Miss Eula G.. Bates of
Abingdon. ILL.,. and Miss Agnes Eswen-
son of Chicago. We're safe. but the
course of the governor of Hadjin. in this
and in other matters, was so unsatis-
factory that the sultan. in Difference to
the wishes of Minister Terrell. was
obliged TO request him to resign. probably
planning at the time TO transfer him to
better position.

Harry Hayward Feigning Insanity-Says
He Will Write a Book.

Minneapolis. Mimi. Dec. 9.-John Day
Smith. who was associate counsel for
Harry Hayward in the trial, forwarded TO
Governor Clough this morning last APP
peal. The attorney asserts strongly his
belief that Hayward is insane and that it
would be a crime TO hang him. He asks
the governor to stay the execution until he
can appoint commission TO look into the
prisoners condition. There is little like
lihood that the request will be granted.
Hayward passed wild night of it. He
is either rapidly becoming insane or is
feigning such condition. About 3
o'clock this morning he got up from his
pallet and shouted TO his death watch
that Jesus Christ was in one corner of
his cell and Satan in the other. He raved
frightfully and declared that he was
afraid of neither Then he began TO
throw imaginary intruders out of his cell.
1t was daylight before he ouieted down.
This morning he declare that he would
write history of the pas, 10 years of his
life. telling everything without reserve.
His cousin, Ernst Goodsell, would arrive
from Chicago, he said, TO take charge of
the publication. He would dictate the
matter to someone tomorrow.
The carpenters are hard at work on the
gallows and the clatter of the hammers
easily penetrates to Harry's cell. At the
first sound he said 10 his watch. with that
horrid. mirthless laugh Of his:

Wheat as Cattle Feed

The Farmers Review of Chicago
he's received reports from large
number Of correspondents in Illinois,
Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky,
Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa,
Wisconsin, Minnesota and the
DakotaS on the extent to which
wheat is being fed to cattle. In
some parts Of Illinois wheat has been
fed largely, especially where markets
are not easily reached, or where other
feed crops are short.
In other parts less has been fed ia
some other states, apparently because
Of the ease with viii h the markets
are reached and also because no other
farm product is found so salable. So
a good many counties report little or
no wheat being fed. Indiana is feed
ing probably a little larger proper
tion and in some Of the counties a
third of the crop will be disposed of
in this way. Ohio is feeding the crop
freely and in localities more wheat
than corn is being fed. Over a large
part Of tae state half Of the crop will
be marketed in the form of live stock
and there are counties where the
proportion of the crop fed will be not
less than 10 per cent. In Michigan
the amount fed varies greatly, some
counties feeding none and others
nearly all the wheat crop. Reports Of
thirty and forty being fed are quite
common. Kentucky reports large
quantities being fed and some coun-
ties will thus dispose of half their
crops.
Missouri reports "a like condition.
Kansas and Nebraska are feeding
very largely, the low price making it
very economical feed. In some
counties in Iowa it is being fed large
ly, even, up to half the crop, but in
other counties it is receiving little
attention as feed. In Wisconsin,
Minnesota and the DakOtas consider
able is being fed, but the practice is
far from universal.
