STARVING PEOPLE,

ing in Armenia.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. 23.-The
Italian Consul at Zeitoun, the city
which recently surrendered to the
Turks after being held for months by
the Armenians who captured it, has
written here describing the wretched
condition of the people of zeitoun.
Many of them, he says, are naked.
Starvation is staring hundreds of them
in the face, and there is much sickness.
Baron Won Calico, the Austrian En-
bassador, has started a subscription for
the relief of the sufferers.
Miss Clara Barton Of the Red Cross
Society, who is now here, is eager to go
TO Zeitoun to help alleviate the distress
of the wretched Inhabitants. 1t is prob
able, however, that her presence here
will be necessary fer SINE time, but
through her aid will be sent there. She
has telegraphed inquiring whether
Marash would be a good place to estab-
l;sh her base of supplies. Marash is
only a short distance from Zeitoun, and
is situated on the very borders of the
roughest country of the Taurus
1t has been learned that an angry mob
on January 1st made an attack on the
American mission at Oerfa, an out-sta-
ton of Aintab. Death or worse fate
might have overtaken the missionary
there, Miss Corinna Shattuck, had it
not been for the heroism of six Turkish
officials. These men faced the mob, de-
claring that they would defend the
American lady with their lives. The
mob paid little attention to them, and
ATTEMPTED to continue their attack
when the officials fired upon them scat
tering them like sheep.
Minister Terrell declares that the
names of those men should be known to
the world for they are heroes. He re-
quested the representative of the
United Press to cable their names to
America, and it is accordingly done.
They are Bezak Effendi, Said Effendi,
Mustafa Effendi, Habzan Effendi, Issa
Effendi and Durak Fiffendi.

NEW YORK, Feb. 23-The Ward
Line steamer Niagara. which arrived
this morning from Cuba via Nassau, re-
ports that one of her passengers, A.
Ladenburg, aged 81 a banker, was
missed form the ship on the morning of
the 10th snd no trace of him could be
found 1t was sarmised that he fell
overheard during the night. He was a
passenger from Nassau, and was a
member of the banking house of Laden
burg, Thalman & Co. of this city.
Mr.. Ladenburg, who was in i'll health,
left here five weeks ago for Tampa, Fla.
He suffered from fstula, and this
caused HIM to be very much distressed.
He sent a telegram to his wife on last
Tuesday that he was to sail on the
same day. He had written to her pre-
vious to. that that his health was not
improved
Mr.. Ladenburg disappeared between
IL p. m. Wednesday and a. M on
Thursday last. How he was lost is a
matter of conjecture, as he was not seen
on deck during that time.
The Niagara left Nassau at o'clock

burg had just gone aboard. He was in
good spirits, and seemed well. That
evening he ate dinner and retired early.
During the night the vessel ran into a
severe southwest gale. A heavy sea
tossed her about considerably, and Mr..
Ladenburg, when called for breakfast
the following morning, said he was sea-
sick and desired no breakfast. All that
day he remained in his room except for
a few short visits to the smoking room
accompanied by H. c. Howes of Howes
& Smith, fruit dealers of Philadelphia
Mr. Ladenburg did not eat anything all
day Wednesday, and retired to his
stater0om about z o'clock in the even
ing. At o'clock the following morning
Steward Robert Evans went to Mr..
I.adenburg's room, but could not get in.
The purser was notified, and the door
was forced. Mr. Ladenburg was not
there. A thorough search of the vessel
was then made, but no evidence of his
whereabouts was found.
Mr.. Howes, described as the personal
friend of Mr. Ladenburg, went to Phila-
delphia on an early train.
1t is the belief of Mr. Ladenburgs
family that he ventured out on the deck
during the stormy weather, and had
fallen overheard into the sea. Mr..
Ladenburg is survived by a widow and
cne child.

DisrenutabIe Schemes.

COLORADO SPRINGS (Col), Feb.
23.-The Cripple Creek district with it's
worldwide reputation as the coming
greatest gold camp in existence. is prov
ing a prolific field for all kinds of dis
honest and disreputable schemes by
which unsuspecting Fasteners are
being fieeced almost daily. While the
Sailing Of mines and prospects is not
dangerous on account of the stringent
laws, there seems nothing TO prevent
the organization of mining companies,
which have little if any intrinsic or
prospective value. These people, to-
gether with their co-workers in the
East by Misrepresentation of mining
properties, are fleeing many investors.

COLORADO REPUBLICANS.
They Cannot Hope for Success With
out a silver Plank.

DENVER (Col.), Feb. pa general
opinion exists among the Colorado Re
publicans to delay the holding of State
convention until after all the Presi-
Dental tickets are in the field. 1t is
admitted that the State cannot be held
for the Republican party without a sill
yer plank in the National platform, and
the State Republican ticket would also
be defeated. as it was the last time,
when Waite ioated into the Guberna-
torial chair through the silver agitation.
The managers in this State have
plan to indorse for Presidential electors
the nominees of the party whose plat
form is for free silver, and thus leave
clear the Republican State ticket to go
on its own merits
