representative the subject Of the riots of
the last few days in Constantinoplc. If"
nc said. the American people can sylnpa.
thizc with the struggles of the insurgents
in Cuba thcy surely can extend a helping
hand to the Armcnians, whose position
for centuries has been infinitely worse
than that of the Cuhans. Their fidelity
to their faith has been the chief source of
their many Affections.
"Thoy received the Christian faith in
the second century and have held fast to i,
through all the years in spite of incc>sant
persecution and many general massacres.
They have a magnificent literature and a
great history and are surely too noble and
intelligent people to be wiped from the
earth by the unspcakable Turk. All that
the Armenian people ask is protection 70,
life, honor and property. and surely such a
demand should meet with the sympathy
Of the American people"

LONDON. Oct. J.-Forcign Office officials
have expressed the opinion that the dis
turbances mt Constantinoplc will seriously
cmbarras5 the powers i'll their efforts 10
bring about reform in Armenia. They
hold that heavy responsibility rests upon
the Armenians for precipitatin- the riots
mt Constantinople and the opinion is gain
ing ground that the recent events there
have caused II rcvulsion of feeling through
out Europe, and those who were urging
their governments to take immediate
steps TO deliver the Armcnians from op
preston begin to see distinctly that there
is another side To the question.

taking of Antokhdagh Pass was at the
most 800 TO 800.
1t is also claimed that the report will
demonstrate that there is no evidence that
any one was killed in cold blood oc that
thcrc were any Inutilations of women or
children. Finally, il is asserted by the

of the Pail Mall Gazette, that only about
forty persons Were buried in the death pit
at Gheliguzan, and that the statement
that nuinb'r Of women threw themselves

LANSING, Oct. o.-One of the most i'm
portant cases ever decided by the supreme
court of this state was that of the state vs..
Haug. The question raised was whether
the state had jurisdiction of the lakes and
sloughs along the Iowa shore of the river.
\ local fisherman, Gilbert Haug, was ar
rcsted1on complaint of the Lansing Rod
and Gun club for seining on Big lake.
The district court discharged him, hold
ing that because the sloughs are fed by tie
Mississippi river they are part of the
river and exempt from the operation Of the
statute.
The supreme court now rcvcrscs that de-
cision and thereby holds that fishing can
only be legally prosecuted hereafter with
