RED CROSS is HELPLESS
Denied the Privilege Of Aiding
Distressed Armenians.
TURKISH MINISTER'S STATEMENT

Miss Barton Also Has Something TO Say.
An Appeal TO President Cleveland and
Queen Victoria to Intervcne-Caii Issued
For Convention.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.--In an interview
the Turkish minister said: "Hou ask ma
what have 10 say about the following
statement. The Red Cross society has de-
cidcd not 20 pay any attention to the COM
munication until IL is officially transmit
tod 10 IL by the Turkish government or
the Turkish minister
"My answer Is very simple, and II Is the
following; The Red Cross society has new
er communicated with this legation. lt
has only communicated, 20 my knowledge,
with the press and the public its presi-
dent, Miss Clara Barton, assisting with
out protest at public meetings, where the
most gross and unjust abuse was made OF
the Turkish government, religion and
race. As the Red Cross society or any Of
its representatives never visited this lega-
ton, 1t is clear and logical that this lega-
tion has nothing to communicate to said
society. This legation sent its communi-
cation 20 the press because 1t Is the public
that the Red Cross society took in its con
Uutnntt DNN NNlNlAlll 4 hlMh4n VIII 10
ready and pleased Co give the Red Cross
society any explanation it may think IL
proper TO ask for This whole question,
added the minister, sis a question Of
rights.
In an official statement issued by the
national ArmeniQn relief committee the
situation Is explained as follows: "The
intention of the Turkish government TO
refuse the American Red Cross society
permission to enter Turkey will not cause
the national Armenian relief committee
and It's branches throughout the country
TO relax their efforts in raising funds to
save the $50, 900 Armenians who are per
ishing from starvation and exposure.
Many are not aware of the fact that relief
work TO the extent OF not less than $780,
600 already has been successfully carried
out in Turkey during the past three
months il seems incredible that while
the Turkish government is permitting
such relief work Il should exclude the
Red Cross society,"

M. nnrton Mal.es statement.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 15.-The Press this
morning prints "a letter from Clara Barton
on the Armenia question. She states
that the first appeal for the Red Cross So
cicty to act came from the missionary
boards of Connstantinople To this con-
ditions were made that the request come
from the people of the entire country and
that sufficient money should be realized.
The first was complied with and the ma
tional committee guaranteed sufficient
funds. The international committee Of
Geneva, official heads of all the Red Cross
treaty nations having no objection, prepar-
ations for sailing were made. The Amer
lean Red Cross society had no part In rails
ing the money its only mission being to
distribute. Then came the objection from
the Turkish government Miss Barton dc
clarcs that that government is not antag
onistic TO the Red Cross as such, but OBJ
iects 70 the distribution Of foreign relief
on entirely different grounds, neither in
its power nor that of the society to control
Sho adds that any statement that the Red
Cross is aggressive and intends TO act in
spite OF the prohibition IS entirely incor-
rect and unfoundod.

No such Witness in the Case.

No man in Chicago has a greater repu-
tation for winning over jury than A. S.
Trude, but he met a worthy foeman one
day, says an exchange. 1t was during the
trial of Cornell VS.. the Pennsylvania rain
road, an action for damages. 1t was n
celebrated case, which had been to the
supreme court three times and was con-
tested bitterly to the end Trude repre-
sented the defendant. The plaintiff, who
had been the city attorney of Omaha.
and later member of congress from Ne
braska, claimed to have been injured ner-
manently in a scuffie with an employe of
the defendant road. Mr.. Hynes. the
plaintiffs attorney, had made a yerv
towery and exceedingly eloquent speech
Mr.. Trude, in order to dissipate the ef-
feet of his opponents speech upon the
jury, found it necessary to quote the Ian
guage of the famous Athenian Pisistra-
tus. which had direct bearing on the
case. There he stood with his hands in
the air in pose truly Delsartian, when
Mr. Hynes, who is an accomplished clas-
steal scholar, quickly remarked:
IF the court please, no such witness
testified in the case"
Mr.. Trude was, of course, greatly dis.
concerted. the judge, jury and court spec
tators bursting out in guffaw of laugh
ter at Mr.. Trude's situation.

II is to be hoped that Senator Marion
Buffers letter to Mr.. Watson. notifying
him that he would not take the RESPONSE
biity of giving his letter of acceptance
to the public, which appeared in our dis
patches yesterday, is the last of the Sc
ries of populist communications of an
eient date which will be given to the pub
lie. Mr.. Buffers letter was written Oct.
%, and after giving Mr.. Watson lecture
for advising populists not to support the
fusion electoral tickets, he concluded his
epistle by notifying Mr.. Watson that if
he wanted his letter made public he would
have to give it to the press himself.
But Mr. Watson did not give it to the
press until after the election. From that
fact it Is fair to infer that he concluded
that he wasn't quite as good judge of
what he ought to do as Senator Butler
was. He declined to take the response
bility which Mr.. Butler placed upon him.
Mr.. Bryan was defeated without the aid
of Mr.. Watson's letter, but if the letter
had been published before the election,
it would have been said by Mr.. Watson's
enemies that he had contributed to Mr..
Bryan's defeat, and that he had done so
purposely.
We are bound to accept Mr.. Watson's
statements because, as far as we know,
he has shown himself to be straight
forward and an honest man. He stated
time and time again that he was anx-
ious for Mr.. Bryan's election. If what
Senator Butler says is correct, namely,
that the effect of Mr.. Watsons letter of
acceptance, If it had been published,
would have been to defeat Mr.. Bryan,
we are forced to the conclusion that Mr.
Watson's judgment in political matters
Is not the best. In view of the fact that
he did not publish the letter before the
election, although privileged to do so, the
resumption is that he came to the con-
clusion that Senator Buffers judgment
was better than his own, and that the
wiser course for him to pursue was to
keep his vitrioiic effusion from the pub
lie until such a time, as it could not do
anybody harm.
Whatever Mr.. Watsons private opinion
of Senator Butler maybe he doubtless
feels he owes him debt of gratitude for
suppressing that letter. And as Mr.. But
Ter showed himself the better politician
in that matter, the question as to wheth-
err in the estimation of populists Senator
Butler will not rank higher than Mr.
Watson presents itself However, there
is no occasion for specializing as to the
relative rank of Mr.. Watson and Senator
Butler in future political campaigns. One
or both of them may be obscured by
greater men in the political contest four
years hence.

Tribute to the President.
From the New York Times (Dem.

Looking back on that trying time, after
the great victory for honesty, it is hard
to realize how great was the burden that
for three years rested on the President,
how appalling would have been the conse-
quences had he yielded to it, how vast and
how lasting are the benefits we owe to his
fortitude. Nor is the debt of the American
nation to its noble President chiefly ma
terial Great as that debt is, we owe him
more, far more, for the example of high
morals he has set for us, and for the SUI
preme fact that because of his unbending
honesty. the honesty of the nation re-
mains unstained and unquestioned. By that
service in the long and terrible crisis now
closed it is no exaggeration to say that
his name may be placed in our history with
those of Lincoln and Washington.
