Il have made careful investigation of
the rumors that President Cleveland had
intimated to number OF Democratic
leaders that he would take advantage of
the meeting of the Democratic National
committee here TO formally announce
that he will not be candidate for re-
nomination. Such all intimation has not
thus far been received by any Of the
leaders who are now in the city.
con the contrary. am told that they
are not expecting any announcement
from the President on the subject
"a member of the Cabinet very close
to the President told me tonight that the
President certainly did not want a re-
nomination; would do all he could to
discourage any movement of the kind.
but that he certainly would not come out
in a formal statement to the National
committee that he would not accept a
nomination for a third term in advance
of any indication that the honor would
be rendered him..

ANOTHER App EAL.
The United Friends of Armenia to the
American People.


Boston, January 16.-An appeal to the
people of the United States by M. H..
Gulesian of Boston, secretary of the
Society of the United Friends Of
Armenia, of which Mrs. Julia Ward
Howe is the president. is as follows:
''The attitude taken by the Sultan and
the Porte in refusing to allow the Ameri-
can National Red Cross society to enter
Turkey is special insult to the people of
the United States, and an insult to civil
ization at large. If the Turkish govern
ment is successful In her refusal to per-
NIT the Red Cross to give food ana aid to
the starving Armenians, the next step
she will take will be to stop tho di stribu-
tion ut present made by the American
missionaries. Then God pity the remain
ing Armenians. Every successive act Of
the Powers of Europe, such as sending
commissions to investigate, ,andattempting
to introduce reforms, has only irrtased and
enraeed the Turks beyond all expression.
If they could not force successful ter
mination to their plans for reform, they
had much better have left the Armenians
alone, and not have lifted a voice or
made protest. Therefore. we beg in
the name of God and humanity, that the
people of the United States raise their
voices in one solid cry from the platform
and from the press and from all quarters
of this country, that the Red Cross shall
enter Turkey without delay. If this aid
by Americans, through the agency of the
Red Cross fails, the Turks will be mora
than ever encouraged in their barbarism."

A TRADE WITH DENMARK.
Senator Lodge Thinks Uncle Sam,
Should Buy Hcr Islands.

Their Value to This Country-Now They
Are a Menace-Greeniand Should be
Included In the Purchase-Dennark
Wants to sell-NIr. Lodge Introduces
A Resolution for an Investigation.
Washington, January 16. Senator
Lodge, who introduced in the Senate to-
day. resolution to investigate the re.
port that the Danish governments was
willing to sell its islands in the West
Indies in substance said: In 1857, q
treaty was signed at Copenhagen for the
cession to the United States Of the
Danish West India islands of ST. Thomas
and st. John. The inhabitants of the
islands voted in favor of annexation, but
the Senate failed to ratify the treaty. 1t
is now reported that Denmark would be
again willing to part with the islands
and would prefer to sell them to the
United States. 1t is very important that
we should have in the West Indies good
naval coaling station, which would be
furnished by the harbor Of ST.
Thomas. But there is involved the far
more important question of our general
policy. The possessions of the small
European powers are constant danger
because they may, at any moment, be
offered to some of tn 9 great powers of
Europe and their transfer would bring
up very periiousl question. A treaty Of
oession between Denmark and the United
States ought, if possible, to include all
the Danish possessions, inolud-
ing St. George, st. Thomas, and
Greenland. do not suppose it can be
said certainly whether there is mineral
wealth in Greenland, although I should
suppose it was quite possible. But it is
portion OF the American continent in
an important position geographically,
and it is much better it should be in our
hands and in no danger of passing into
the hands of any one else. Both the
islands and Greenland could essily be
managed by making them territorial
governments.
