THE SITUATION IN TURKEY.
Every Effort Put Forth to Protect
American Citizens.

Occurrences in Turkey have continued to
excite concern. The reported massacres of
Christians in Armenia and the development
there and in other districts of spirit of
fanatic hostility to Christian influences ma
turally excited apprehension for the safety
pendents of the foreign missionary societies,
pendents of the foreign missionary
societies in the United States reside
in Turkey under the guarantee of law
and usage and in the legitimate performance
of their educational and religious mission.
No efforts have been spared in their behalf
and their protection in person and property
has been earnestly and vigorously enforced
by every means within our power
I regret, however, that an attempt on our
part to obtain better information concerning
the true condition of affairs in the disturbed
quarters of the Ottoman empire by sending
thither the United States consul at Sivas to
make investigation and report was thWared
by the objections of the Turkish government
This movement On our part was in sense
meant as a gratuitous ENHANCEMENT of the
United States in the so-called Eastern ques-
right and duty which belong by treaty to
certain great European powers, calling for
their intervention in political matters af-
fecting the. good government and religious
freedom of the ron Mussulman subjects of
the Sultan, but it arose solely from our de-
conditions in our efforts to care for those
entitled to our protection. The presence of
our naval vessels, which are now in the
vicinity of the disturbed localities, affords
opportunities to acquire a measure of famil-
iarity with the condition of affairs and will
lection of any interests of our countrymen
within reach of our ships that might be
found imperiled.

BRITAIN MUST GIVE IN.
Presidential Message to Congress
May Result in an Ulti-
matun1.

Chicago, H., Dec. GA special to the
Times-Herald from it's Washington cor
respondent says: WAR between the
United States and Great Britain is
threatened. 1t can be averted only by
surrender on the part of England. The
contention over the Monroe doctrine has
reached stage which will produce the
gravest anxiety on both sides of the
Atlantic until the facts become known.
If the American Congress will support
the President, and of this there can be
no doubt, Great Britain will soon be
given the choice of surrendering or fight
ing. Upon authority which cannot be
questioned" reads the dispatch, st is
known that this government has re-
ceived cablegram from Ambassador
Bayard, giving briefly the contents of
the note which the Marquis of Salisbury
has mailed in reply to Secretary Olny's
dispatch of last July. This reply is in
substance refusal to arbitrate any of
the territory east Of the Schomburg line.
Moreover. Lord Salisbury raises a new
case. He now contends that the Schom-
burg line was not arbitrarily run; that
it was in fact, located upon authentic
data. and that it can be proved by the
records the treaty descriptions and .he
maps that it correctly represents the
western limits of the territory of Great
Britain acquired by cesson from Hol-
land -

ANDREWS & co. FAIL.
Manufacturers Of School Supplies
in Chicago = Name a
Familiar One.

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec 5.-The sheriff to-
day took possession of the store and
factory Of A. II. Andrews Il CO., the
well-known furniture manufacturers of
this city Judgment for $50 700 was
entered by the Globe National bank.
1t is understood that the liabilities will
reach $250,000 but the assets are be-
lieved to be sufficient to cover them.
At Lao o'clock this afternoon the COM
pany made an assignment i'll the county
court to Frederick A. HolbrOok, its sec
Rotary. The assets were given as be-
tween S500,O0O and 100000 and the la
bilities between $350,000 to 100000.
Alfred Ii. Andrews, the president of
the company, is one of the best known
men in his line in Chicago. He made
an engagement to travel for Il New York
educational establishment and it was in
that way he first came West, which at
once offered such attractions to man
IF his energy that he determined TO
make it his future home.
He first settled at Beloit, Wis, but
later came to Chicago, where he soon
apparatus company. Eight years OF
hard work with that firm gave him much
knowledge in connection with furniture
used at that time and his inventive
genius began to devise improvements,
the result of which has in the last TWEEN
ty years made the name of Andrews
known all over the country among peO>
pie connected with educational institu-
tons. Upon leaving the Holbrook com
pany, he formed a partnership with S.
Bigelow under the name of Andrews
& Bigelow, which, however, was soon
changed to A. H. Andrews & Co. In the
spring of 1884 the interests were incor-
porated and Mr.. Andrews was elected
president The concern was, it is said,
the largest and most exclusive of its
kind in the world. 1t had a capital of
$1.000,000 and manufactured over
$2,000.000 worth of goods annually.
The company operated factories in Chi
cago and Buffalo and had branch sales

cordance with usage and diplomatic propriety,
GU minister to the imperial court mas been
directed to represent our government on that
occasion.
Regarding Russian COnsuls.
Correspondence is on foot touching the
practice of Russian consu1s within the jur1s-
diction of the United States to interrogate
citizens as to their race and religious faith,
and upon ascertainment thereof to deny to
Jews Authorization of passports or legal doc
Iments for use in Russia. Inasmuch as such
a proceeding imposes disability, which in
the case of succession to property in Russia
may be found to infringe the treaty rights
of our citizens and which is an obnoxious
invasion of our territorial Jurisdiction, it has
ELECTED fitting remonstrance, the result of
which, it is hoped, will remove the cause OF
complaint.
The pending claims of sealing vessels of
remain unadjusted. Our recent convention
with Russia, establishing modus vivendi
as to imperial jurisdiction in such cases, has
prevented further difficulty of this nature.
The Russian government has welcomed in
principal our suggestion for modus vivendi
to embrace Great Britain and Japan looking
to the better preservation of seal life in the
North Pacific and Behring sea and the ex-
tension of the protected area defined by the
Paris tribunal to all Pacific waters north of
the 35th parallel. 1t is especially noticeable
that Russia favors prohibition of the use of
fire arms in seal hunting throughout the pro-
posed area and a longer closed season for
pelagic sealing.
The Samoan Situation.
= In my last two annual messages called
the attention of the Congress to the position
we occupied as one of the parties to a
treaty or agreement by which we became
jointly bound with England and Germany to
so interfere with the government and control
of Samoa as in effect to assume the manage
ment of it's affairs On the 9th day of May,
1894, I transmitted to the Senate a special
message with accompanying documents giving
information on the subject and emphasizing
the opinion / have at all times entertained,
that situation in this matter was incon-
sistent with the mission and traditions of
our government, in violation of the princi-
pies we profess and in all its phases mis-
chievous and vexauous.

ton of the Congress and ask for such legis-
lative action or expression as will lead the

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
Careful Diagnosis of Our Financial
Ills. with Prescription.

AS we turn from a review of our foreign
relations to the contemplation of our ma
tional financial situation, we are Immediately
aware that we approach subject of domestic
concern more important than any other that
can engage our attention. and at pres
ent in such a perplexing and delicate pre-
dicament as to require prompt and wise
treatment
We may well be encouraged to earnest
effort in this direction when recall the
steps already taken toward improving our
economic and financial situation and when
we appreciate how well the way has been
prepared for further progress by an aroused
and intelligent popular interest in these sub
iects BY command of the people, a customs
revenue system, designed for the protection
and benefit of favored classes at the expense
of the great mass of our countrymen, and
which, while inefficient for the purpose OF
revenue curtailed our trade relations ana
impeded our entrance to the markets or the
world has been superseded by a tariff pollcy
which in principle is based upon denlal OF
the right of the government to obstruct the
avenues to peoples cheap living or les
sen their comfort and contentment Ior the
sake of according especial advantages TO Ia
vorites and which, while encouraging our
intercourse and trade with other nations,
recognizes the fact that American Self-reil-
ance, thrift and ingenuity can build up our
country's industry and develop It's resources
