TO STARVE THEM.

Turkish Government Has Prohibited
Food Supplies Going TO HISTORIANS.
The Turkish government, tits claimed, has
just taken the preliminary steps in what may
result In massacre Of HISTORIAN Christians
In the mountains of Kurilstan. It is assert
ed that the government has given, orders to
starve the independent tribes OF HISTORIANS
In the mountain region Immediately west OF
Caviar, which may be described as lying
about midway between Mosul and Lake Van,
about so miles west of the Persian frontier.
The orders, II is stated are that no food sup.
plies OF any kind shall be allowed TO enter the
territory OF the independent tribes. and
measures are said to have been taken To EN-.
force these orders 20 the letter.
This action Is apparently taken as q means
OF compelling the independent tribes to sub.
nit 10 Turkish authority and TO pay the taxes
demanded by the Turkish government, and
Ia regarded as the first serious attempt that
the Turks have made to oxtort taxes from the
independent tribes. From tho earliest times
in the history OF the Ottoman empire these
tribes have been independent OF Turkish
rulo. They have paid no taxes. and they
have acknowledged no allegiance 10 the
Turkish government.

The UNREPENTANT TURK.
Sultan Refuses TO Acknowledge the
Right OF the Powers.

The reply OF the Turkish government to
the notes OF the representatives OF Grea'
Britain, France and Russia in regard TO the
proposed reforms in Armenia has been de-
livcred to the envoys. The porte's answer
is not satisfactory. The Turkish government
does not agree To the principle Of the control
OF the proposed reforms by the powers. Az
ter receiving the reply the ENJOYS of the
three powers held meeting, at which
they decided to refer tho whole
matter To their respective governments.
The position ~ serious, rs last week the
British embassy informed the ports tha I
Great Britain had resolved not 10 accept any
notifications OF the propositions affecting re-
forms in Armenia, aud the representatives OF
the other powers interested have made the
same declaration to the porle.
The reply Of the Turkish government
causes surprise and II Is thought that such an
answer would not have been given without
encouragement from some European power.
But the presence OF the British Mediterranean
squadron, consisting OF seventeen ships, at
Beirut. points to an agreement between
Great Britain, France and Russia to force
Turkey to comply with the demands OF the
powers. Consequently interesting news may
shortly be flashed from Beirut, Syria, where
1t II believed the British fleet will be called
upon to support the demands OF the three
bowers.

CABINET APPOINTMENTS.
0LNEY SECRETARY OF STATE
That was as Expected but His Successor
Caused Astonishment.

The place left vacant at the Presidents
filed by the transfer OF Attorney General
Olney to the secretarysh.y OF state, while
Judge Judson Harmon, OF Cincinnati was So
lected by the president to succeed Mr.. 0nley
rs head Of tho department OF justice. The
latter appointment came as a complete sur.
prise to everyone here, and II Is believed that
the attorney y-generalship was tenderes to
Judge Harmon, only that day.
The selection of the Cincinnati man is gen.
orally attributed TO the influence OF Secretary
Carlisle, OF whom the new attorney-general
IL an old friend and associate. Ii shows once
more the reliance with which the president
places In the judgment OF his secretary OF the
treasury.
1t is believed that the attorney generalship
WAS arst offered to two or three eminent
New York lawyers, who did not care TO re.
linquish their vastly remunerative practices
In order to assume the more arduous duties
OF chief law officer of the government fof
the comparative Insignificant salary OF q, 600
year.
Mr. Harmon was for long time judge OF
the common pleas court, and Is about 90
years OF age, and one OF the most conspicu.
Gus lawyers in the west. Upon the retire
ment OF Ex-Governor Hoadly from his Gin.
Harmon took his place at the head OF the firm
Of Harmon. Colston, Goldsmith a Hoadly, the
last named being the son OF ex-Goyernor
Hoadly, OF Ohio.
Judge Harmon Is not only recognized as
one OF the foremost lawyers and iurisis OF
this state, but Is one OF the most popular
citizens. lie was born near Cincinnati 40 years
ego, has always lived there, and is known by
all His father, Rev. B f. Harmon. was a
Baptist minister. we'll known throughout the
Ohio valle-. Judge Harmon graduated u,
Denison university, Baptist institution, at
Granville, o.. In 1866, and began the practice
Of law In Cincinnati In 1869.
He was "a Republican TIL 1879. whea he
Greeleyiaed. lie was elected superior Judge
In 1878, reelected IN 1883. and wnen ex-Goy-
ernor George Hoadly went to New York, In
1887, Judge Harmon resigned from the bench
To become the head OF the firm OF Harmon.
Colston, Goldsmith Il Hoadly, which repre-
sen,s several railroads aud other corpora
.ions, and with which firm he will continue
bis connection. When Judge Harmon re-
signed In 1887, Governor Foraker appointed
Judge William Taft, now United States
circuit Judge aud formerly solicitor-general
to the vacancy.

AWFUL MASSACRE.
All the Missi onaries, their Families and
Households at Chengtu Killed.


A special dispatch from Shanghai says
that It Is almost certain that massacre Of all
the persons connected with the English.
French and American missions at Chengtu
has occurred. Neither men, women NOT
children have been spared, according 10 the
report IL Is admitted that kilograms have
been intercepted by the government. the OBJ
ject being to conceal the news OF the massa-
ere A French gunboat Il On route TO Wuen-
chang 10 investigate the report
Reports published about Japan's prepara-
tlon to occupy Cofea are mucn exaggerated.
Only small garrisons remain at Seoul and q
few others points. and, even in respect to
these, Russia will shortly require Japan to
fix a date OF evacuation. IL Is not expected
here that japan will offer any serious Difficult
ties as regards compliances with this re-
quest.
One OF tho principal provisions OF the shi-
monoseki treaty Is that which afilrms the In
dependence OF the Kingdom OF Corea A.
Russia has from the outset Of the war pro-
tessed herself desirous TO see Corea unfetter-
cd by outside control. II might be presumed
that she is now doing no more than bringing
pressure to bear upon Japan TO give effect TO
her agreement with China by speadily eyacu-
nting the country. Ii has. however, been
hintei that Russia is anxious 10 obtain n com.
manding influence Tor herself in the Corenn
peninsula. This view Is supported by recen,
dispatches from Seoul, the Corean capital
that Bokuyeeko. who has just been appointed
acting premier OF CoTea, has formed an al-
lance with the Russian minister.

the San Francisco Argonaut. A
French lady was staying at hotel
with her child. when the latter was
taken i'll with scarlatina. The land
lord endeavored to evict her. and the
energetic intervention of doctor was
needed to prevent removal which
might have been attended with fatal
results. A claim for damages esti-

case was brought decided against him.
he appealed. The Court of Appeal has
