STREETS RUN WITH BLOOD.

Two Thousand Armenians Butchered Dur.
Ing Riots in COnstantinople-Ame
College and Bible House Guarded by Sol
diers.
CoNsTANTINoPLE,A Aug 3l.-The latest
estimate of the number of persons
killed during the rioting last week is
1000. Although order in the city has
been fairly restored, the situation is
still such as to cause great anxiety.
Secretary Herbert, of the British
embassy, states that he saw one of the
municipal scavenger carts heaped up
with the bodies of Armenian porters.
On top of the load was the body of a
norter whose head was terribly bat
tered, but who was still alive. The
skulls of most of the victims were cleft
or battered.
The Italian ambassador, who wit
messed the killing of a number of Ar
menians by Turks, appealed to the Off
Ger of passing patrol to interfere on
| behalf of the Armenians. The officer
refused the ambassadors request, say
| ing: II. is the people" and proceeded
on his way. The sultan, upon hearing
that the guard ships had landed men,
begged MIR. Herbert to withdraw them
but this the latter declined to do until
the rioting ceased The American col
lege and Bible house were guarded by
troops and the college was visited by
United States Minister Terrell, who
| wished to ascertain whether or not the
occupants were safe. The ministers
appearance had good effect and hC
was assured by the chief of police thai
everything would be done TO preserve
order.
The Armenian revolutionary commit
tee have issued manifesto in whicl
are embodied I2 demands, the chief o
which is that autonomy be granted t.
the Armenians. The manifesto de
rlares that the Armenians will fgh
for their rights until the last of then
have heen killed.

WHERE is SHE ?
Mrs. Mccoy Who Was Expected to
Testify Has, Like Mrs. Tun-
nell, Disappeared.

A new witness whose testimony was ex-
pected to corroborate number of state
ments made by Mrs. Davidson and Mrs.
Ihurston was discovered yesterday in the
person of Mrs. Mccoy, who up to the
day after Christmas resided on Mission
street, near Twelfth.
Mrs. Mccoy, however, like Mrs. Tunnel
and Mrs. Baddin, has mysteriously disap-
peared as though the earth had swallowed
her. Strenuous efforts on the part of in
terested parties are being made to locate
her, but so far they have been barren of
results and In all probability will remain so.
1t is stated that a few days prior to the
day on which Matte Overman confided
her hearts secret" to Mrs. Thurston she
called on Mrs. Mccoy and told her sub
stantlaily the same story of her relations
with DIR. Brown as has been published in
numerous interviews with Mrs. Davidson
1t Will be remembered that on the Mon
day before Christmas the alleged black
mail on the part OF Mrs. Davidson was re-
ported TO the police. The following Thurs
day, which was the day after Christmas.
Mrs. Mccoy left her lodgings and her
whereabouts has not as yet been estab-
lished. She told the la adladv of the house
that she was going north, probably to Sc
attic, but further than this made no state
ment. 1t is presumed that Mrs. Mccoy
became cOgniZant of the fact, probably
through Miss Overman, that the scandal
would inevitably become public and con-
Guided that rather than be involved in the
difficulty she would make her departure
until the matter quleted down.

A Noted Woman.

Since the excitement in the stock mar
ket it is not very likely that Miss Alice
Cornwell of London will open an office in
Wall street. The war scare has at least
frightened her to such an extent that she
will remain in London. Only few weeks
ago it was reported that Miss CornWell
would certainly open an office in Wall
street. There is much that is odd in the
personality of Miss Cornwel. She is the
London Hetty Green, minus the green UNI
brella, black bag and gold-bowed spectacles.
Miss Cornwell has the additional advan-
tage of beauty and literary talent, and is
only 81 years old. She is the most noted
woman in London, and is much better
known as Nine Midas, under which nom
de plume she is frequent contributor to
a well-known weekly paper which she has
owned for seven years, and which consti-
tutes her one fad. Like everythine else
she has touched the paper is gold mine.
Miss Cornwell made her debut as a pro-
moter of the Midas gold mine in Ar
genuine Republic. 1t proved to be glitter
ing success. Once she went to Kim oerley,
South Africa, and, after some personal
investigation, purchased diamond mine
which had been abandoned. In no time
it was being revoked 10 large profit ana
has since become one of the most valuable
mines in the diamond tields.-New York
