Turkish government has officially an
nounced that the missionaries in Asia
Minor will not be expelled, so long as
they comply with the laws II becomes
more and more apparent as idcts leak

in spite Of the understanding in his
case arrived at between United States
Minister Terrell and the Turkish govern
ment. after It had been proposed to try
Knapp on the charge Of melting the Ar

ment.
Almost daily negotiations on the sub
ject take place between the United States

still misunderstood and seems to be as
suming a graver aspect as time passes.
