THE ARMENIANS.
Refugees Coming Here May Be
Refused Admittance.

Paper on Criminal Law Reform-Pen-
sion Papers Returned-Canada
Money at Discount.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3O-The atten-
ton of Commissioner Stump, of the
emigrant bureau, was called to the
movement looking to the colonization
in this country of Armenian refugees
Mr.. Stump said that Secretary Carlisle
and himself had been fully advised of
such a movement. and various appeals
had been made from Lady Henry Som
erset and from Frances Willard and
English and American relief associa-
tions asking for the cooperation of
the government in furnishing these
stricken people an asylum in the United
States. but while the sympathies of
all good people must be aroused in
their behalf, the officers of the
government must enforce the
laws as they exist The matter was
being investiga ted, and if any lawful
means could be found they would be
exercised in behalf of the refugees.
The law on the subject, however,
strictly inhibits the landing in this
country of all persons likely to be-
come a public charge. and also ANY
person whose ticket or passage is paid
for with money of another, or who is
assisted by others to come" This be-
ing the case, although Mr.. Stump did
not so state, it seems altogether proba-
BILE that the law necessarily was found
to be an insurmountable obstacle in
the way of relief in the manner pro-
posed.
THE NATIONAL PRISON ASSOCIATION.
MILWAUKEE. Sept 3o.-Homicide was
discussed at this mornings session of
the National Prison association. 1t
was concluded that the census taken
on the subject and the magazine edi-
torial on it partake largely of the
nature of sensational journalism; that
the world is growing better, and that
homicide is on the decrease. j. d. Mil
liken, of Mcpherson, Kan, mem Der of
the American Bar association, read the
report of the standing committee on
criminal law reform. His report was
a clear and comprehensive one and was
listened to in an enthusiastic silence,
which changed to a volley of questions
and comment.

field. They had been carried $50 miles

the field, but were uninjured with the
exception of being badly water soaked
CANADA MONEY AT A DISCOUNT.
SANDUsKY, O., Sept. 3o.-The four
national banks of this city have posted
notice to the effect that they will
hereafter accept Canadian silver only
at a discount of 20 per cent. An ex-
tensive trade is carried on between
Canada and this city. The action of
the local bankers is in retaliation for
the position assumed by the bankers
across the lake, who have refused to
accept American silver except at dis

FORCED CURRENCY FAILS.

Gen. Weyler's Attempts to Uphold Cuban
Bank Notes Fruitless.
LONDON. Sept 30--The Times has a
letter from it's Havana correspondent
describing the forced currency issued
in Cuba, in the course of which he says:
both the customs house and the Span
ish bank itself refuse to accept the
bank notes. 1t is, therefore, ridiculous
to hope that Capt Gen. Weyler's de-
cree will maintain them at par" The
correspondent predicts that within a
few months the bank notes will be at
so per cent discount.
