THIEDE WRITES A STATEMENT.

armed with a permit from the marshal

Ding to the statements of the guards,
Thiede is a model prisoner. He will
ingly obeys all the rules and causes no
trouble. Association with his fellow
prisoners seems to have no charm for
him, and he spends his time alone. He
- as been IN confinement just nineteen
months. but aside from the pallor that
is natural to one who has spent so long
time III a priso, cell, he appears to
be in good health and spirits.
The fact is, Thiede is hopeful. He
expects the supreme court OF the Uni
ted States to reverse the decision of
the supreme court Of Utah, and to soon
be free again.
Il have been twice sentenced to
death" said the prisoner, land during
nv confinement have suffered many
deaths A guilty man soon settles down
and makes the best of his fate, but
with an innocent man it is very Off
ferent, and God knows L am innocent"
You do not expect to be eXecuted?'
Ger tainly not. An innocent man
cannot resign himself to that. / be-
lieve that I shall vet be freed"

or Armenian versions of the affair.
Certainly many hundreds were killed
and it is even said that some victims
were skinned alive, while others were
soaked with petroleum and set fire to.
The Turks of Erzeroum, as usual,
claim that, the Armenians were the ag-
gressors, but Independent reports ac-
quit the Armenians of doing anything
more than attempting to defend them
gelves at Erzeroum, and at Diarbekir,
although at Zeitoun where they cap
tured a Turkish battalion, and at
Marash, the Armenians admitted the
initiative in attacking the Turks. The
latter are not always to blame for the
outbreaks, but there seems to be no
excuse for the fiendish massacres
which follow. When once a Turk be-
gins killing, he never knows when to
stop. Further troubles are also re-
ported at Kharput Mahtich and Arab
kir. and at Marash. Bloodshed and
outrageS are said to have been more
terrible and prolonged than at Zeitoun.
During the rioting at Marash, Harjin
and Orfah, American missionaries,
thanks to the strong representations
made on the subject to the Porte by
the United States ambassador, Terrill,
We're protected by the Turkish gen.
d'armes. This, it is known, was by
III GU vi uCl VI luc OIle, CSI6SIdpueQ
to the Turkish officials at the places
mentioned.
Owing to additional disquieting news
Just received here from Sivas, Terrill
has renewed his demand on the Porte
to protect the missionaries and is hold
ing the Turkish government RESPONSE
BILE for their lives. Abdul Pasha,
formerly president of the Sassoun COM
mission of inquiry, and Sabdan Pasha,
hare been sent to Erzeroum and Bitlis
respectively, to take command of the
Turkish troops in these places. This
lends color to the report that Shakir
Pasha is coming back to Constantine
pie and is to be appointed grand vizier.
There is no improvement in the
financial aspect of affairs There
are ugly rumors that certain palace
officials have made large sums recently
by buying and selling Turkish securi-
ties at the right moment upon informa-
ton received from high sources.
There are rumors in Russian circles
here of great activity being displayed
in connection with the Black sea fleet
Of Russia, and for some time import
ant movements of troops are known to
have taken place on the frontier
of Russia near the disturbed districts
of Asiatic Turkey.

DEADWOOD.
Murdered ut Alliance, Neb., on
Oct. 1.-the Description Given.

LINCOLN. Neb. Nov. 14-It is now
believed G. R. Kimban, the banker who
disappeared from Deadwood Septem-
Der while temporarily insane, carry
ing 100000 in cash and securities, is
the man who was murdered at Alliance,
Neb., October Is. The body was found
by the roadside with the skull crush
ed. There was nothing on the corpse
to identify it. In some manner his
friends learned of the murder and sent
a photograph to the authorities, who
think they identified it. He is sup
posed to have been killed for his
money. This letter was received by
the governor yesterday from Mrs. Kim
ball:
'I enclose proof of a photograph ia
ken of my husband while in Jail at
Tecumseh. He had d scar on his knee,
also one on his foot. His thumbs were
quite short for the length of his hand.
Corydon Rood, city of Tecumseh, can
give you information concerning him
while under arrest at Tecumseh if you
wish, as he released him, or rather
procured his release. If this murdered
man answers my husbands description
In the least, 1 am anxious to know it
as soon as possible. as 1 wish to see
for myself. OF course the longer the
delay the more difficult the recogni-
ton"
Kimball was arrested on a train at
Tecumseh September IL, his strange ac-
lions and appearance attracting atten-
ton. He was thought to have gone
on toward Kansas City, since which
time all trace of him has been lost.
Kimball left his wife and sick babe at
Deadwood, representing that he would
go to some neighboring towns on bus
mess and would be home within two
days He wore a, blue sack coat, bust

he was without collar. his shirt i'll

Save Armenia.

CHICAGO, Nov. 14.-The Associated
Press today received the following
from DR.. NJ. M. Manga Sarian, leader
of the society of ethical culture in this
city, and one of the most eminent Ar
menians in the United States:
1.-THE very recent nlassacres of Ar
menians reported from Trebizend,
Erzeroum, Moosh and Diarbekir, fully
confirm the words spoken by the Turk
ish commissioner general to the
Worlds Columbian exposition, Haiku
Bey, IF we Ghe Turks cannot have
their country, we shall see that you
(the Armenians) don't get it
There is very little doubt that the
Turks believe their days are numbered
and are therefore determined to ex-
terminate the Armenians, root and
branch, before they themselves have
been finally and forever driven out of
the civilized world. If Europe is to
act at all, it must act at once, for soon
it will be too late to undertake the
salvation Of Armenia, as there will be
no Armenia left to save'

her up again, laid her down again, and

to whom I said my wife had been
murdered and went on.
We found the doctors door locked,

me from the house. I kept begging
