Execution of Armenians.

CONSTANTTNOPLE, Oct. S1.-A sem
sation has been caused by report,
generally believed to be correct, that
three Armenian notabilities of Trebi-
zond, including prominent ecclesias-
tics, are to be executed on the ground
that they are responsible for the recent
voting there.
Advces from Moosh say leading Ar
menians have been comforting with
representative Turks regarding means
to prevent an outbreak there of disor-
ders similar to those in different parts
of Armenia, which resulted in so much
bloodshed.
1t is added that the Turks have stip-
ulated that the Armenian missionaries
distributing relief to the suffering peo-
pie of Sassoun withdraw in three days;
Sacre. 1I-e Iurh4Sn OlnclalS, III lJlJ
there will be a massacre such as has
just occurred at Bitlis.
In view of the critical situation of af-
fairs, United States Minister Terrell
has advised the American missionaries
to withdraw temporarily from Sassoun
and notified the Turkish government
that the United States will hold it re-
sponsible for the lives of the American
missionaries.
The British charge d'affairs, NJ. Her
bert, has made representa- atoms to the
porte of nature identical with Ter
relPS, and the government has declined
to protect the missionaries. But here
another complication arose. The Kurds
of Sassoun are only held in check by
the missionaries and threatened to
plumber the Armenians after the de-
parture of the missionaries. The mere
nf T1Irl ch fo
being a sufficient guarantee against the
repetition at Sassoun of the bloodshed
which recently occurred in other PARTS
of Armenia, and nothing but most en-
ergetic action, it is asserted, can avert
a serious disturbance.
The Armenian patriarch has appealed
to the different embassies here to inter-
vene in time to prevent another mas
sacre. The Turkish officials, in reply,
assert that Hintchek, the Armenian Sc
cret secretary, has provoked all the
riots.

EXPELLS TWO PRIESTS.
Fathers Fitzgerald and Murphy
Fined $50, Must Spend Eight
Weeks in Canada in Holy Medit-

Their Own Expenses-Case Ap-

OMAHA, Oct. 31.-A special to the
Bee from Lincoln says: The long
drawn out fight between Bishop Bona
cum and his priests, which has result
ed in that prelate being in the police
court for criminal libel and the re-
moval of many priests, was renewed
today, when a. diocesan court convict
ed Fathers Fitzgerald and Murphy and
expelled them from the diocese for de-
Tying the bishop. The bishop presided
and the convicted men assert they are
the victims of a padded jury. The de-
PENDANTS were notified to appear for
trial by Lincoln detective, but re-
fused to accept an irregular service.
and did not put in an appearance when
the trial was called. Consequently they
were found guilty of contumacy and
punishment was assessed as follows:
a. Suspension from the exercise of
all ecclesiastical functions for the term
of eight weeks, "and we forlEd any &C.
clesiastic of any rank whatever, save
the Roman pontiff, save such person or
persons as may be delegated by him,

posed

missions.

and penance; they shall atone for the
numerous scandals given to the clergy
and the laity of the Lincoln diocese"
And, lastly, to pay the expenses of the
journey to and from the retreat.
Both priests are determined to re-
sist eviction. They declare they will
yield no right until a fair and impair
tial hearing of the charges is had. and
assert the so-caNed trial is void be-
cause the bishop, as plaintiff, acted as
judge in his own case. The bishop has
appealed the matter to the civil courts.
Fitzgerald was secretary of the st.
Bernard's union, composed of the
priests who preferred charges against
Bishop Bonacum, and in the course of
their duties wrote some very warm let
tiers to the authorities of the church
on diocesan affairs. Bishop Bonacum
and Rev. J. G.. Caraher called at Te-
cumseh last Saturday to take possess
sion of the pastoral residence and
church. Murphy refused to vacate. A
similar visit made to Auburn was also
fruitless. The bishop will attempt to
force his way in.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Oct. Blob
Fitzsimmons and Manager Julian
came in at $40 am. from Pine Bluff,
IN charge of Sheriff billiard. Julian
says Brady's statement that his man
rushed into the hands Of Governor
Clarke's officers at Texarkana is utter
iy false. He explained that he and
Fitzsimmons were in charge Of Sheriff
Hoppe from Marshall, who had war;
rant for their arrest, and they were
willing to go with him. When Sheriff
billiard placed the fighter and manager
under arrest, Sheriff Hoppe was also
arrested. Julian says Corbett and his
co-conspirators have done everything
in their power to avoid fighting Fitz-
simmons, but as soon as he and Bob
reach Hot Springs they VIII be forced
to fight or lay down their hands.
After furnishing bonds here, Fitz-
simmons will go to Hot Springs and
claim the forfeit money from the Flor
ida Athletic club. When he gets this
he will be ready to fight Corbett or any
other man in the world for the cham
pionship and $4,000 a side before any
club offering the best purse. and be
ready to fight on Friday, November 1.
Julian also states distinctly. however,
that the club shall be in no way con-
nected with the Florida Athletic club,
or any of its members.
Fitzsimmons will fight Corbett for
$4,000 a side or nothing. The only
stipulatio Julian will make is that the
fight shall be to finish.
1t is given out as authentic that the
big fight will occur tomorrow.

We are addressing crowded houses.
All along the Coast, so far, they are
very anxious to have us come again
and stay at least a week in a place.
Surely the good Lord is blessing us
abundantly. To Him be all the honor.
At Mississippi City addressed a large
number of candidates for Office, in
Guiding one of the aspirants for Gov
ernor. All had spoken in the after
noon. They said ours was the best by
far, and we had a packed court house.
Mrs. Johnson speaks in warmest
praise and admiration of Mr.. .2Henry
Ware and Rev. N. B. Harmon, Metho-
dist pastor at Bay st. Louis, for the
assistance rendered her, and their zeal
in the Prohibition work. The John
sons will remain in Mississippi at least
two months longer, going next to the
towns along the Mobile & Ohio and
Northeastern railroads.
