FEREBER MAY RETURN.
Pardon Granted the Colorado Man
Who Killed a Mexican.

DENVER, Jan. 5.-Governor Waite has
granted a pardon 10 Jacob M. Fereber,
who was sentenced to the penitentiary in
this State in 1874 for murder. but escared
from custody before being taken to Jail.
Fereber shot and killed Mexican, who
was one Of party that broke into his
cabin at the summit of Sangre de- Cristo
Pass, where he was prospecting. He was
convicted and sentenced for seven years.
The sentence was considered unjust by
Fereber's friends, and one night the Jail
door was purposely left open. The pris-
oner walked out and fled to Mexico, where
he prospered. He has been Mayor OF Mag
daleDa and financial agent of the Mexican
Government, one OF the highest offices
that can be conferred by the President of
the republic. Ferebei's desire to secure
pardon from the Colorado Penitentiary
arises from the fact that he wishes TO again
live iG the United States. his health hav-
ing failed.

REOUISITION DENIED.
Rev. Mr.. Hampton, Colored, Plays
in Great Luck.
Failing TO Receive assurances From
Kentucky, Judge Buchwaiter
Turns Him Free.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 5.-Judge Buchwalt ter
To-day delivered an elaborate opinion in
the case of the extradition of Rev. A. S.
Hampton, colored. demanded by kentucky
for shooting and wounding Mr.. Durham
in Green County. When Hampton was
first before the couri the court had re-
fused to deliver him unless he had assur-
ance from the Governor of Kentucky and
from the Judge of the trial court that
Hampton would be protected from vio-
lence and that he would be given fair
trial.
The court said no such assurance had
been received. BE found both the indict-
ment and the requisition detective in form,
but on the broader ground of securing the
rights of PRISONERS, the court held that lie
was justified In refusing to surrender
Hampton. The presumption that he would
die without legal process IL sent back had
not been rebutted by proof of any kind.
The court cited statistics of ten lynch
ings in Kentucky within a comparatively
short time and recalled the fact that one
of the victims had been surrendered by
this court. The court felt the obligation
to perform moral duy in this case which
could not be enforced by mandamus or
other proceedings.
He was willing to remand the prisoner
upon proper indictments and requisition il
the Governor or other authorities had pro-
vided for force TO protect him from vio-
lence and insure an impartial trial. This
had not been done. and the court felt
bound TO discha arge the prisoner.
So much interest was taken in the case
that other Judges left their benches to
listen to the delivery of the courts deci.

A FALSE PROMISE OF AMNESTY.
Slaughter of Those Betrayed and the
Burning and Sacking of
Villages.

LONDON, Jan. 7.-Professor Minas T.
Cheras, editor of the Armenia and Pro-
fessor of Armenian at the University of
London. has received the following ad-
vices from Armenian sources:
Zekki Pasha, commander of the Fourth
Army Corps, has had given to him by the
Sultan the medal of husbandry. Chendi,
Kurdish brigand at ghahaZekesen,
ordered an Armenian named ADear to be
killed for protesting against Chendi's mis-
deeds. The Kurds have assassinaied two
Armenians at Daghvergan.
The number of men, women and children
who were cut down by sabers or bayoneted
in eleven villages Of the Sassoun district
was $50. 1t is now DrOvsd that the people
from he Sassoun district who, during the
retreat TO Mount Andoka. fought bravsly
for nineteen days ana who gave them
selves up TO the enemy on August 81. were
deceived by the proclamation of Zekki
Pasha, promising them amnesty. The
Turks then outraged the women aud
starved and tortured them for three days.
Sixty young men were finally killed by the
sword. and their bodies were thrown into
a well.
The villages of Shenik and Glenigouzan
have been burned to ashes with their four
churches. Thrty-three other villages have
been sacked and destroyed.

RATHER A THIN STORY.
Turkey Claims to Promote the Inter-
eStS of ArmenianS

CStS VI
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-The following
official telegram was received at the
Turkish legation in this city, dated Con-
stantinople:
Certain newspapers have maintained
lately that the number of Armenians in
Turkey reaches many millions. and that
they are badly treated. Both assertions
are false. According to reliable statistics
the Armenians living in Turkey are little
over 100000. of which 100000 are estab-
lished in Constant tinople itself.
Those of the Armenians who reside 10
the provinces are distributed all over the
country, so that nowhere do they consti-
tute the majority of the population. The
fact, as acknOw wledged even by Turkeys
detractors, that the Ottoman Armenians
have schools and literature not only proves
that they are not exposed to vexatious
treatment. but that, on the contrary, the
Turkish Government favors their ins itn-
tions and assists them to preserve their
Languages and nationality, and has secured
their we'll being.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 5-Senator Teller
who was the special champion in the Sen
ate of the late William McGarrahan in
his effort to establish his claim to the
Rancho Grande grant in California, says
he will not continue his labors in behalf of
McGarrahan's heirs.
II supported Mr.. McGarrahan because
believe an injustice had been done him
and not because of the money involved.
McGarrahan took that position himself
and when money was offered refused to
compromise. Now that his heirs have
taken up the contest they have done so
purely for the property which is supposed
to be involved and not for the establish
ment of the principle"
The bill. 1t may be stated. has passed the
