OLIVER BELMoNT.

mer It was fitting setting for such a scene and worthy of Mr. Belmont's rare talents as host.
 Mir. BelmoEs is fine whip. Last De- tober he made coaching tour with Mrs. Willie R., Colonel and Mrs. William Jay, Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt and the Duke of Marlborough as his guests During the last horse show Mir. Belmont was one of the party that excited the greatest interest
 Mrs. Vanderbilt, with admirable com posture, laughed and talked during the time the crowd stared at her. Mir. Bel mont looked at the crowd with curious and undisturbed interest. The duke was plain " annoyed and kept pulling at bis downy mustache. His feelings so added to his warmth that he took of his hat and kept it of. The duchess wore an expression of dismay. Colonel Jays face was very red, and Mrs. Jay turned around and talked to some people who sqt back of her.

6inllnm nn Armenia.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.--Senator Cullom, who is a member of the senate committee ,n foreign relations md chairman of the subcommittee on Armenian affairs, says that he did not sec what action tho United States could take In the matter of the exclusion of the Red Cross from Tur- key. Any government, he says, has tho right to exclude any or all persons from It's territory It is right which all nations reserve, the United States as well as oth- ers. Neither by legislation nor executive order could the United States compel Tur- key to admit the Red Cross society.
 Senator Cullom says that there is little that congress can do in the matter of Ar menian outrages except to express in em- pbatic terms its horror of the outragcs per pctrated and direct the secretary of state to communicate the action to the Turkish government. Senator Cullom has had no conference with Secretary olney on this subject.
 Miss Rebecca Krakorian, an Armenian, called on Senator Cullom and made statement of the conditions existing there. She claimed that this government should stop the slaughter of Armenians. The missionaries who have been sent to Ar nienia, she argued, have taught the people Christianity and thereby made their pupils the subjects of Turkish hatred.

Americans to Be Protected.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-Secretary ol State Olney cabled Mir. Munyon, United States consular agent at Johannesburg, to secure protection for all American citizens there. MT. Olney has also sent dispatch to Ambassador Bayard requesting him to secure the good offices of British represent atives in South Africa for the same pur- pose. .,.-
 Mir. Olney's dispatch to Ambassador Bayard is considered significant, showing that, despite the somewhat strained feel ings caused by the Olney note and the presidents message on the Monroe doc urine, the relations between Great Britain and the United States are cordial.
 Secretary Olney has received cable gram saying that Colonial Secretary Cham berlain gave assurances that he had in structed her majesty's high commission CT, Sir Hercules Robinson, to extend the same protection in behalf of John Hays Hammond and any other American citi- zen involved in charges of rebellion in the Transvaal as would be taken in the inter- est of British subjects under like oircum- stances

Harrison Has Nothing to Say.

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Ex- President liar rison is at the Fifth Avenue hotel. When he was seen by a reporter, the generals sole reply 10 inquiries was that he must be excused, as he had "nothing to say" When the question was put to him wheth- CT he was engaged to marry Mrs. Dim- mock, as has been reported he said terse- ly: 1T can neither affirm nor deny that. I did not come to New York to get mar ried." This was looked upon by many as an admission that an engagement existed, but that tho date of the marriage had not been settled. There is no longer any req son to doubt, close associates say, that an engagement does exist between the gen eral and the niece of his first wife. twas learned from a warm personal friend of the ex-president that date for his mar riage to Mrs. Dimmock would be decided upon this trip. It is intipated the mar riage will take place before the end of Feb ruary, and that he will take his bride west.

IS HARRISON OUT OF IT?
Ex-scnator and Ex-Minister Palmer says
 He Is Not In the Presidential Race.

Ex-scnator and Ex-Minister Palmer Says
 He Is Not In the Presidential Race.
 NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-Ex-SenntorT Thom. as W. Palmer of Michigan, who Is now in the city, had long conference with ex- President Harrison at the Fifth Avenue hotel After seeing General Harrison, hfr. Palmer said, "In my judgment, General Harrison will not be a candidate for the presidential nomination"
 This statement is regarded by politi- clans as important on account of the close relations of personal friendship that have long existed between the ex-president and Mir. Palmer. They served in the United States senate together, and their intimacy was of marked character. After General Harrison became president he intended that Mir. Palmer should have place in his cabinet and proposed that he should accept the post of secretary of agriculture.
 Mir. Palmer, however, was bitterly op- posed by General Alger and other Michi- gan Republicans. Mr. Palmer declined to place the president in position of antag- onism to the dominant faction of the party in Michigan, and General Harrison gave the portfolio to General Jeremiah Rusk of Wisconsin.

Situation at Johannesburg.

JOHANNESBURG, Transvaal, Jan. 18- The passport restrictions. which were i'm posed during the crisis, have been re- moved, but the burghers are already un- der arms, and have been ordered to re- main in the vicinity of Johannesburg.
 Dr. Jameson and his officers are still at Pretoria, where Sir Walter Hely -Hutchin- son, governor of Natal, has arrived.
 The high court has placed an injunction upon all the bank balances and other prop erty belonging to those arrested for com plicity in the revolution.

Among those arrested are several Americans and Germans. including J. s. Curtis, an Amer ican engineer

but a few minutes, and the mayor at once drove down town to his office in city hall.
 The matter was conducted with great quietness and but for an oversight on the part of the mayor the news might moi have been made public for some time.
 As it happened, when he left the car iage in which he drove down town iron Mrs. Vanderbilt's house, he forgot to take from the scat beside him the printed civil marriage, which he has not yet learned by heart.
 The cabman drove of, and when the mayor missed his little book he at once ent a messenger after it.
 The cabby had found the telltale book. nd, putting two and two together, gossip red with his brother jehus until soon thC lews was spread broadcast.
 Mayor Strong was too busy to go int details when asked if it was really true that he had been called upon to unite the couple in marriage.
 "Yes, sir" he answered, 1T married Mrs. Vanderbilt and MT. Belmont this morning at the brides home. There were some people there, but I didn't know many of them. They were, I believe, prin- cipally friends of Mrs. Vanderbilt. No 1ody stood up with Mir. Belmont. It lidn't take long to do the trick, and lrove down town from Mrs. Vanderbilt's house shortly after 10 o'clock"
 The newly welded couple went at once to Newport, where the first of the honey moon will be passed.
 March 5 last Mrs. Vanderbilt secured a divorce from her husband. The decree was granted on the statutory grounds. It gave Mrs. Vanderbilt an annual income of more than s200, ,0o0 and the custody of her three children, Consuelo, W. K. Wander bilt, Jr, and Harry Sterling Vanderbilt. Mir Vanderbilt's defense was a mere for mality.
 When Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt was married to the Duke of Marlborough, her father gave her away at the altar. The duke and duchess passed their honeymoon at MT. Vanderbilt's place at Islip, N. Y.
 Oliver II. F. Belmont.
 Oliver Belmont is as well known as any man in society. Every club welcomes him. He owns place at Newport called Bel court, one of the finest places of the kind in America. It was built after designs by the late R. M. Hunt.

The Msni.tsr's s.stsmcnt.

wAsHrNGroN, Jan. 1b.-In an interview the Turkish minister said: "You ask mo what I have to say about the following statement; The Red Cross society has de- cided not to pay any attention to the com munication until 1t is officially transmit tod to 1t by the Turkish government or the Turkish minister
 My answer is very simple, and it is the i,llowing: The Red Cross society has new TT communicated with this legation 10 has only communicated, to my knowledge, with the press and the public, Its presi- dent, Miss Clara Barton, assisting, with out protest, at public meetings, where tho most gross and unjust abuse was made of the Turkish government, religion and race As the Red Cross society or any of it's representatives never visited this logn- ton, it is clear and logical that this lega- ton has nothing to communicate to said society, This legation sent it's communi- cation to the press because 1t is the public that the Red Cross society took In its oon- ldence, but naturally l always will be ready and pleased to give the Red Cross society any explanation it may think N proper to ask for. This whole question, added tho minister, lis a question of rights"
 In an official statement issued by tho national Armenian relief committee tho situation is explained as follows: "Ths 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, ,o00 Armenians who arc per ishiDg from starvation and exposure. Many are not aware of the fact that relief work to tho extent of not less than si00,- 900 already has been successfully carried out in Turkey during the past three months. It seems incredible that whilo the Turkish government is permitting such relief work it should exclude tho Red Cross society"

DARING PLAN OF ESCAPE.

Murderous Plot of Criminals to Iiberats
 Themselves From Matteawan Asylum.
 P0TsHKEEPsIE, N Y.. Dec. 1s.-The plottsd escape from the Matteawan Asy- lum For Insane Criminals, which was frustrated through the confession of con science stricken Convict Patrick McCnire, was ono of the most daring ever planned tn any state prison.
 Besides MoGuire Conviots Edward Will Hams and Henry LeStrange both of New York, are known to have been concerned, and other convicts, who Superintendent Allison will not name, are believed to have Leen implicated. Mcclure was the ring leader, ane the arrangements for the es- cape havs been going on for several weeks, Keeper Brown acting as a go between for the convicts md their friends in New York. Thanksgiving night was the time originally set for the escape Just before dark on that afternoon two strangers ap- proached the asyluA and went 10 the southeast corner, directly under McGuire's s cell, from which the convict Sad lowered a rope. The men fastened a large wrench. a burglars tool known as a bar sprea Ter, and 22 caliber revolver, loaded in every chamber. and McGuire pulled them up Into his cell.
 Mcclure had arranged with his pals to spr6du tn6 DarS over the WlDu )WS or tn6lr cells and in this way permit them to escape into the hall. Williams, who is an athletic fellow, 2S years of age, was to have the revolver. and he had been in- strnoted to kill the first keeper he met taking his keys, which would un ock all the doors of the institution. AS McGuire came to realize that one and perhaps more of the keepers would probably be killed, his heart failed him. and that night, just before the attempt was to be made he sent for Superintendent Allison and laid bare the whole scheme. Dr Allison at once set detectives at work on the case.
 McGuire. acting under instructions, gave Keeper Brown a decoy letter to mail to friends in New York, telling them to come to help him to escape. A s2 bill, marked for Identification, was inolosed, with O letter as tip for Brown The keeper was arrested before he left the asy- lum. The marked bill was found on his person, and the letter which it accompa- nied was found hidden in his room. Brown has been held for the action of the grand jury. ......
 Detectives are still working on the case, which leads to the belief that more arrests are to be made soon, and 1t Is rumored that the men who were instrumental ir securing the tools for the conviots axs es~VA. -.-~s~--------.----s

 1t was in the tramcar, that place in which the experiences are varied enough to mako a man cosmopolitan if he will study them. Two girls are talking of what they read.
 ''Oh, choose novel easily enough, l" one said. "I go to the circulating library and look at the last chapters.
