More Serions Than First Supposed-Minis-

 Washington, Aug. 24.-The state de- partment has received information from Minister Terrell at Constantinople con cerning the recent attack on the premises of MT Christie of Baltimore, a brief re- port in regard to which had previously been communicated by Mavroyeni Bey, Turkish consul at Washington.

The state department confidently expects that MT. Terrelps prompt action in obtaining from the porte instructions to the vail of Beyrout to investigate and prosecute those found guilty will secure immediate and full jus tice, as promised by Mavroyeni Bey's communications.
 The United States consul at Beyrout has also been ordered by Minister Terrell to proceed to Tarsus and investigate the matter personally.

THE SPEAKlN' AT LINDEN.
Private Allen Didn't Materialze Captain John ston Makes His Usual Talk-A Pop
 Shells the Woods.

Linden, Aug. 24.-(Special.)-Abo POO people, representing all parties, were as- semblcd at this place today to hear Pri- vate John Allen and Joe Johnston discuss the silver question. A greater portion of the crowd came to hear John Allen, he being featured in the posters as draw ing card but they were woefully disap- pointed, as he did not put in an appear ance.
 Captain Johnston was introduced by Hon. w. E. Cunningham in short and neat address. The captain made his same old talk, which was listened to with great respect and silence, there being very lit- tie applause. except at the beginning and end. Captain Johnston said that he wanted the fight for silver to be made in- side the party and then went on with his usual argument in favor of the white metal.
 After he closed Rev. A. J. Hearn of Choctaw, who is a populite without dis guise, was introduced. He shelled the woods heavily and knocked the free sill yer democrats out in the first round. He said they will not do and could not be trusted and that the silver league was by silver men who had no record to back them, that every true man would vote against the democrats and they would do right to defeat them or any other gold bug party. He was wildly cheered, the friends of the administration joining in on account of the discontinue of Cap tain Johnston and his friends, who quickly got clear of the house when this boom exploded in caffip.
 Pops from everywhere were present, and the best of feeling prevailed. It Is generally thought that Captain Johnston did himself no good by today's proceed ing. Every man who came democrat went away a democrat and the captain has drawn another blank.
