Turkeys Defiance.

Constantinople. June iS.-The Turk
ish government has made fresh reply
to the note of the powers outlining re-
forms insisted upon for Armenia. The
porte accepts the principle Of the pro-
posed reforms, but requests that sew
eral points be discussed before any ac-
tion is taken. The Turkish government
expresses the sultans sovereign right
not to be prejudiced. The impression
which prevails here is that this last
reply Is tantamount to a refusal, and
1t is feared the powers will adopt more
urgent measures to enforce their de-
mands. The British Mediterranean
squadron. which arrived in Beyruth In
June. has sailed for Tripoli. Reinforce
ments for Russian troops have been
sent to the Turkish frontier in the vi
cinity of Armenia in order to prevent
the passage Of marauders and supplies
of arms and ammunition.

RIGID INQUIRY.
The Pacific Mail Company VIII BE Asked
to Explain.

San Francisco. June lS.-An evening
paper says: When the government In
vestigation shall he held there will be
no lack Of testimony to show the cul-
pability of the Pacific Mail in the CO.
lima wreck. Besides the testimony
given before the hull and boiler in
speetors. A. d. Mcclellan received a
letter from his brother. who has 4
coast ranch in Mexico. near the scene
of the wreck. Ten Of the wrecked
passengers are being cared for by him.
and their story Of the wreck corrobo-
rates all that has been said against
the management Of the ship. Mcclellan
writes that. from the story told by the
survivors at his place, the wreck was
all due to Captain Taylor. Certain II
is" adds the writer, that he made
no attempt whatever to gave the pas
sengers."
The government inquiry will be d.
rected to ascertain. among other
things. how the captain of the San
Juan failed to pick up the passengers
who have been drifting ashore near
the scene of the wreck, after the San
Juan's departure. There is abundant
evidence that they made n)thing like
a thorough search for the survivors.
and it is thought that many lost their
lives through his neglect.

REGIONS SIDERED.
Great Britain Looks at the Question OF

Washington. June ls.-SIr Edward
Gray's statement In parliament yestcr-
day that Ambassador Bayard had been
Informed that Great Britain would con-
sent to the arbitration Of the venezue-
Ian question under certain conditions
creates some surprise among officials
here, as Sir Edwards statement Is cal
culated to show that Great Britain has
accepted the suggestion Of the United
States. whereas II had been declined.
The desire OF VenezL ia is to arbitrate
the entire boundary question and the
r. quest Of Mr.. Bayard In behalf of the
United States was In this direction.
But the answer Of Great Britain as
given In the associated press dispatches
at the time. was that no arbitration
was admissible as regards certain ter
ritory which Great Britain asserts In
defensibly hers. though she offered to
arbitrate concerning certain territory
to which apparently Great Britain re-
garded her title as less clear. The
practical effect Of this was to reject the
