CONSUL WALLER,S CASE.
The Affair Appears to Grow More Compli-
 cated


 Washington, Nov. 20-While the state department refuse to furnish any infor- nation regarding the matter the inn pression exists here that the French government has notified Ambassador Eustis at Paris that 1t will not furnish Ia, copy of the record of the court martial proceedings against Consul Waller as a matter of right.
 MT. Walters counsel, Crammond Ken nedy of this city, believes, however, that the record will be furnished to Am bassador Eustis if requested as mat ter of courtesy. It is not improbable that MT. Waller will be notified that the French government will release him from custody as a matter of grace if this government will waive the question of indemnity.
 Mrs Waller strenuously insists on a payment of damages in compensation for his Imprisonment, but it is not un- likely that the whole matter will be referred to the ex-consul to decide for himself. Should he prefer to remain in prison upon the chance of obtaining the indemnity the state department and his counsel will do the best possible for him,

WILL BE A CRIME.
Senator Chandler Denounoes the Presi-
 dents Agreement

dents Agreement.
 Washington, Nov. 20,-The articles of organization of the joint tariff as- sociation, announced in this mornings papers, had the early attention of Sen ator Chandler, who last summer so wig orously arraigned the proposed ''presi- dents agreement" out of which the or ganization grew G1e said to a report CT of the United Press:
 ''That agreement, if it shall ever be signed, will be a crime against both the antitrust law and the interstate commerce law. l don't know but that the presidents of the roads interes ted are playing the game with a view of learning whether or not congress will do anything for their relief. They have put off signing it until the first of the year, after congress shall have been in session @ month
 ''Do you think congress with amend the interstate commerce law so as to permit pooling under the direction and control of the commission?"
 q do not express any opinion now" answered Senator Chandler, 'as to the probabilities of legislation in the fu- ture, near or remote. The condition that this agreement forces upon public attention is for the executive and not for the legislative branch of the gov ernment. As l said in a recent letter to President Cleveland, the proposed crime against the antitrust and anti pooling laws is a public fact as distinct and evident as the Cuban rebellion, which your attorney general eagerly labors to suppress Like many great wrongs those proposed by the joint traf- fic association have their subterfuge and false pretence. The railroad con- spirators say their only motive is to detect and punish violators of the in ter-state commerce law, to protect small shippers from discriminations and to act in harmony with the inter- state commerce commission. Accord ing to present appearances they have swallowed that commission, and will soon devour unhindered the substance of the people,
 Senator, MT. Commissioner Knapp, in his letter to you last summer, called
 
 the public from railroad consolidation in your section of the country. Do you agree with him?"
 Certainly, so far as that goes. No one denies that advantages accure from railroad consolidation. But MT. Knapp, while charged with the duty of preventing railroad consolidation and pooling, is aiding in bringing about consolidation and pooling I am op- posed to pooling at all as long as it is in violation of the law, and favor amending tie law so as to permit it only under certain restrictions. One of these is governmental regulation. My attitude toward this subject is unchang- ed from what it was last winter, when the bill to permit pooling was before the senate. What said then I stand by now"

ALL AMERICANS ARE SAFE
THAT IS ACCORDING TO LAST AD- VICES RECEIVED FROM ARMENIA.

An Appeal to the Sultan to Avert
 Famine--Prisoners Were Daily Beaten
 In Prison-An Appeal Has Been Made to
 the Russian Authorities.
 Constantinople, Nov. 2O,-Advices from Aleppo state that all Americans at Aintab, Marash, Orfah and Mardyn are safe. The missionaries at Kharpout are leaving and returning temporarily to Constantinople The Armenian pro vincial refugees here have petitioned the patriarch here to avert famine in these countries, and ask him to appeal to Europe. It is stated that the min isters refuse to receive the patriarch unless he publishes an encyclical call- ing on all Armenians to maintain order and condemning their intrigues and demands on the Turkish government. The patriarch's position is becoming extremely difficult. He has again ap- pealed to the embassies, informing them of various massacres and begging their good offices to put an end to the situation.
 The officials insist that the Armenian journals here shall publish articles ap- proving the government policy and condemning the Armenians. Several Armenian prisoners who have been re- leased for lack of evidence upon which 10 convict them declare that they were beaten daily in prison to compel them to reveal the plans of the Armenian committee. None yielded.
 M. Nelidoff, the Russian ambassador here, has replied to the recent appeal of the Armenian Catholics at Tiflis. He refers to the conflict in the prov dnces which, he says, were unfortunate ly in most cases caused by Armenians who had been instigated by their revo- 1utionary committee. The result was a terrible revenge on the part of the Turks in the form of a massacre. The sultan has sanctioned the scheme of reforms prepared by the powers and is proceeding to effect them. To this end 1t is necessary for the leaders of the people to persuade the latter to desist from revolutionary attempts, abandon idle hope of foreign intervention, stop all disturbances and cooperate in the restoration of peace.

 Indianapolis, Ind, Nov 20.LThe bi- ennial conference of Indiana repubIi- cans was held tonight. Colonel Rich ard w. Thompson was chairman of the conference. He made a speech, as did General Nelson, Charles W. Fairbanks and others. The feature of the confer ence was a scene during MT. Fair banks speech. All the speakers had eulogized ex-President Harrison and considerable enthusiasm had been en- gendered. In the course of his remarks MT Fairbanks declared that the re- publican party would be led to victory in 1896.
 By the most illustrious republican in the United States-Benjamin Harri- son." Some one in the room at once shouted: What's the matter with Me- Ilinley?" And from all parts of the hall came the refrain 'He's all right; he's all right" The Mckinley senti- ment was evidently a revelation to MT. Harrison'e friends.

FAVOR PUBLIC WHARTES.
l.. J. Matthews Before Committee on Com
 mercial and Misunderstanding Interests.

mercial and Manufacturing Interests.
 The committee on commercial and manufacturing interests were listed for meeting last night, but the only members present were Alderman Mur- ray and Councilman Fullerton, while L. J. Matthews was the only citizen present to advocate the passage of any petition by the committee. For nearly half an hour the members of the com mittee waited for some one else to show up, but no one put in an ap- pearance, and they decided to hear what MT. Matthews had to say upon the subject, even though, as there was no quorum present, no decided action could be taken.
 The matter in which MT Matthews was interested was the establishment of a public wharf at the foot of Sea street. He advocated the establish ment of two public wharves in the city, one in the eastern and another in the western section of the city, but favored the establishment of the wharf in the western part of the city first, because it could be done much cheaper. He claimed that wharf could be erected at the foot of Sea street for from 5000 to s10,000, while, to erect and maintain one in the eastern part of the city would require at least $75,0OO
 BUILDING LINE ESTABLISHED.
 The committee on building lines also held a brief session last evening for the purpose of considering a. petition for the establishment of building line in Livingston street, between Avon and Gamer The property owners were represented by E. c. Beecher, and the committee in executive session, voted to recommend a twenty foot building line on the street.
