A New York correspondent of the

American wedding ever excited such

LONDON, Nov. 5.-Editorials in the

of the announcement from Rome that
the powers had decided to take joint
action in regard to Armenia. The Post
Conservative says: The ambassadors
incurred a terrible responsibility and
have limited a threat that means nothing
less than the occupation of Turkey. Is
England prepared to acquiesce?"
The Graphic says that it is reopening
the eastern question with a vengeance.
1t leads to Russian occupation of Ar

MARYLAND RECOVERING.
Two Sides of How the state Was
Lost to the Democrats.

| BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. 6.-The peo-
pie of Maryland having recovered from
the surprise caused by yesterdays poll
! teal avalanche, are beginning to in
quire how it all happened and what
! the result of it is going to be. Con-
/ gresham George l. Wellington, chair
man of the Republican state committee
! sums it up in a few words as follows:
THE people of Maryland are tired of
German and Gormanism, of Rasin and
Rasinism and yesterday they backed
their sentiments with their ballots.
Chairman H. w. Talbot of the
Democratic state committee said today
| that he thought it was attributable to
the following reasons: "There were
several causes which, combined
brought about the Republican victory.
The chief reason, however, was hos
tility to Senator German throughout
the city and state. Many Democrats
did not approve of the senator's course
in Congress and all the ills which have
affected the people for the past two
years have been attributed to him and
to his course at Washington. The
hard times in this state as we'll as
throughout the country have been laid
by many people at Senator Germans
door and the condition of the Demo-
cratic party in Maryland has been
greatly affected by this feeling. 10

however, assert the result was to a
very considerable extent brought about

American Politics in the Absence
of Issues.
Nov. 6.-The Times says

LONDON, Nov. 6.-The Times says
of the elections:
''The elections have again surprised
American politicians. The Republic
cans were victorious beyond all ex-
pectations The failure to break Tam
many is discoura ging. Such is the
state of American politics in the alb
sence of any great issue Except the
tariffs and the currency, upon which
the contending parties are unable or
unwilling to range themselves face to
face that it is impossible to predict
the result of the presidential election.
Perhaps the Democrats have the most
cause to regret the success of Tam
many, for some of Tammany's moral
discredit is bound to fall upon the

LONDON, Nov. ga Vienna dispatch
to the Standard says:
The porte has replied to the identical
representations of the powers that the
reserves are being summoned to stop
the outrages upon Armenians. The
powers, however, consider that these
measures are inadequate.
The Constantinople correspondent of
the Standard says: 1T is rumored that
decisive European action is imminent.
A great demonstration was announced
for Friday but the sultan, fearing the
consequence, notified the Turkish news
papers of his intention to proclaim a
constitution, whereupon the demonstra-
ton was countermanded. The sultan
then ordered the papers not to publish
the announcement, and arrests began
to be made. Last evening the police
raided the Turkish quarter of Sedik
Pasha. A fight ensued and several
persons were killed
A fresh crop of revolutionary pla-
cards were scattered broadcast today.
Even at the portes house a letter was
found giving the fultan the alterna-
tive of abdication or assassination.
Reports are reaching the embassies
from all directions of wholesale mas
sacres and the victims now include
Greeks and Maronites.
The report is gaining ground even in
diplomatic circles that the sultan has
ordered the determination of the Ar
menian race. The excitement is spread
ing to Syria, Bagdad and Mosul.
Report Fully Confirmed.
A dispatch to the Daily News from
Constantinople fully confirms the fore
going and adds that the British con-
sui, Hampson, telegraphs from Sas-
SCUM that the distribution of relief has
ceased there and that the missionaries
have been obliged to leave. The en-
bassies do not make any secret of the
fact.
The Daily News correspondent adds
that throughout Armenia fanatical dis
order IS rampant and that the lives of
Christians are in danger. 1t is as
serted that several military students
at the Pancaldi academy have been

PITTSBURG, Nov. 6.-Colonel Robert
G. Ingersoll tonight admitted that he
is still Pagan Bob and the election
in Kentucky has not changed his lack
of faith. A telegram was shown him
which said fifteen years ago Ingersoll
had remarked that when Kentucky
went Republican he would believe there
was hell. The people were wondering
if Bradleys victory had converted the
colonel. Ingersoll wrote this answer;
"The above is idiotic. Kentucky going

CHICAGO, Nov. GA special from
Rockford. ILL.,. says: The police of this
city believe they have unearthed an
other Holmes in John C. Bennett, who
was sent to Joliet from here for steal
ing a watch at the Huffman house.
Bennett pleaded guilty and threw him
self on the mercy of the court He is
90 years of age, and apparently in the
last stages of consumption. Since he
was escorted to Joliet a few days ago,
his wife, Mrs. S. j. Snyder of Boyd,
Ill, has been heard from.
In a letter to the chief of police here
she says that Bennett when a young
man murdered his wife in England
and escaped to this country. He went
to the copper regions of Michigan and
from there to Galena, ILL.,, where he
was married to a woman who was DOS
sessed of some property. She was shot
at through the windows of her home
and several accused Bennett of trying
to kill her. He is alleged to have caused
the death of
His Own Two Babies,
and the wife, who dared not tell of his
infamy for fear of being killed. OBJ
tanned a divorce and went to Helena
Mont, where she died a few months
ago. Bennett then married Mrs. EN-
ma Stevenson of Galena. He had
been married to her four months when
he made an attempt on the life of his
wife. She escaped from the window
one night and caused his arrest and
conviction for burglary, stolen goods
being found in the cellar. He was
sent to Joliet for three years on this
charge.
On his release Bennett went to Lock-
port, Ill, where he married Mrs. Sa-
rah Price, woman of considerab BILE
means. Shortly after the wedding the
son of his bride escorted Bennett out
Of the city with a shotgun and he was
not heard from until identified with a
gang of Chicago sandbaggers. He
was suspected of being implicated in
the death of Moss Amelia Olsen of
Chicago, it is said, but nothing con-
elusive could be fastened upon him. He
next went to Rock Island, ILL.,, where
he
Served n Long Sentence
in 1888. On his release he went across
the river to Davenport, Iowa, where he
was caught in the act of highway rob-
berry and sent to the Anamosa peni-
tertiary for six months. In Union
county, Illinois. after his release, he
married another rich widow, now
known as Mrs. Snyder. The latter says
Bennett talked in his sleep and dis
closed a plan for numbering her, and
that upon being aware that his secret
was found out he attempted to kill her
with a knife. He was sent to Chester
for a term of seven years for this and
had been released but a few months
when captured in Rockford.
Bennett has Travelled under many
aliases. and though there are dozens of
witnesses against him for his various
crimes. they are widely scattered and
conviction would be difficult. 1t is
hardly thought he will survive his
present sentence, as it is evident that
disease has a strong hold upon him.
