Constantinople: The reply of the
Turkish government TO the notes of
the representatives of Great Britain,
France and Russia in regard to the
proposed reforms which these powers
demanded in Armenia. has been de-
livered and is not satisfactory. The
Turkish government does not agree to
the principle of the control of the pro-
posed reforms by the powers After
receiving the reply the ENJOYS of the
three powers decided TO refer the
whole matter to their respective gov
ernments. The position is serious, as
only the previous week the British
embassy informed the porte that Great
Britain had resolved not to accept any
notifications of the propositions af-
fecting reforms in Armenia and the
representatives of the other powers
have made the same declaration to the
porte. The presence of the British

comply with the demands of the pow

REVIEW OF TRADE.

Dun's says: The tide OF business is rising,
even as 1t was falling Just two years ago with
surprising rapidity. The gain has gone so far
and so fast in some branches that the more
conservative fear IL may not be maintained.
But the period OF dizziness which comes in
each market after an unusual rise brings as
yet nothing like corresponding decline.
Industries gain much, halt OF fall back little
and then gain once more. The demand for
consumption steadily increases as the en-
ployment and wages OF the people increase.
Demand for money expands, The serious
question remains whether crops will be full
enough to sustain large business. But the
worst reports are better by far than the esti-
mates recently current. There is neither holding
back OF wheat by farmers nor anxious haste in
purchasing by foreigners to support belief in
scarcity. Iron pushes upward like the great
buildings into which so much OF IL goes, and the
advance in finished products has become gen.
