The Concurrent Resolution on Ar
menian Affairs Discussed.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The meeting Of
the Cabinet to-day lasted for about two
and half hours. and II is believed that
much OF the time was occupied in the
discussion of the expediency of acceding
TO the request of Congress as set out in
the concurrent resolution relative TO Ar
menian affairs and communicating with
the governments Of Europe on the subject.
As the Secretary of State declines TO say
what course was decided upon as regards
the resolution. IL is surmised that the de-
cis;on has been actually reached. IL is
known that some members Of the Cabinet
are troubled with serious doubts as 10 the
advisability Of meeting the request of Con-
gress. and IL has been urged that in max
ing the representations desired in the in
terest OF these Armenian subjects of Tur-
key, the State Department would deprive
Its argument in favor OF the Monroe doc
trine, as set out in the note of last July
concerning Venezuela of all points. since
IT was based on the admission Of the right
OF European powers to regulate the affairs
OF Europe free from our interference as a
condition for the free exercise by the
United States Of similar right TO control
the Affairs OF this hemisphere, without
European interference.

Safe Robbery at Edwardsport,

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
EDWARDSPORT, Ind, Jan. 31-Last
night thieves, supposed to be from Vim
cennes, took the hand-car from Bicknell,
five miles south of here, and ran it to this
place. They broke into the blacksmith
shop of Freund & Schaefer and took some
tools. They then went to Thomas Bart
let's store. and, having forced an en-
trance, they drilled two holes in his safe
and blew off the outside door. DR.. j. ".
Reem has his Office In the same block, and
when he heard the explosion he ran out
the front door. There was a sentinel on
the outside, who commanded him TO throw
up his hands Not needing the warning,
the robber shot at him twice, but missed.
This aroused the neighbors, but the rob-
bers had fed. All they got was IA cents
in pennies from the money drawer. Last
week the same gang broke into five stores
at Bicknell, blowing two safes, and taking
a lot of jewelry, watches and some money.
Bloodhounds have been put on their track,
but failed to do any good. This is the
second time Mr.. Bartlett's safe has been
wrecked.
