HORRIBLE STORY AGAIN TOLD

An Armenian Refugee Tells of the Mas
sacre in Marsovan.
New York, March 25.-Mharim Dali
majian, an Armenian refugee who re-.
Gently escaped from Turkey and has
just arrived here, said last night:
"The massacre in Marsovan occurred
November last. The first thing done
on the morning of the massacre was to
put guard of Turkish soldiers around
the American college. This was to
protect the college from attack. Two
or three houses in the town in which
the naturalized American citizens lived
were also guarded. The Turkish SOL
diers began by killing in cold blood all
the Armenians whom they found in
the market. They did this partly with
guns, partly with bayonets and partly
with hatchets.
'Then they killed all the Armenians
whom they found in the streets. They
did not, however, enter any Armenian
houses, except four, where several
women were assaulted and killed.
Meanwhile each of the five mosques
in the town had a Turk crying out
0V0Iy LOW mluQt06 budb tu0 AIm6llduS
were sacking the mosques and killing
the Turks. This added greatly to the
public excitement and added the Turk
ish populace to the soldiery.
''Over 1000 persons were killed in
all the massacres in Marsovan. It was
freely acknowledged by the soldiers
that the Armenians were killed by di-
rect orders from Constantinople. There
are altogether 500,O Armenians
under Turkish dominion and if they
remain under that rule for ten years
longer they will be exterm:nated or
converted to Mohammedanism.
Between $4,000 and 40, 600 Armen.
ians have been massacred up to the
present time. The governor Of the dis
trict is now busy arresting all the
young Armenian men whom the SOL
diers or police find in the streets. The
result of this massacre is that all the
young men are keeping in the houses
and sending out the old men to buy
food

the Herald from Rome says:
King Menelek demands an indem.
nifty of 10000, 900 lire from Italy.

able, and further complicates the situa-
tion. The negus' forces now threaten
to surround Asmara, while continuing
to advance upon Massowah.
The Marquis di Rudini is evidently
losing ground. It is believed that in

General Trade for the First Quarter IL

New York -Bradstreet' review of
trade says:
General trade throughout the United
States for the first quarter of 1895 ia
Disappointing. When the improve
ment in industrial and commercial
lines between Msrch and September,
1895, is recalled, occurring as it did,
two years after the panic of 1898, rea-
son would seem to have been behind
the confidence that the current oalen-
dar year will bring general revival.
But the most favorable reports at this
time are those which declare the vol.
ume of business only equal to, and in
a few instances, in excess of the like
total one year ago. The fact that in
terror merchants are buying more free
ly in Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and
parts of Nebraska, where the snow and
rain has prepared the soil for the crops,
constitutes almost the only favorable
announcement for the week. In almost
all other parts of the country east Of
the Mississippi, stormy weather has
tended to check the volume of business
and still further restrict mercantile
collections, which have now been OK.

The usually large number of business
failures taking place during the first
quarter of the current year promises to
make record. The total for the cur
rent week throughout the country is
800, or i8 more than last week; SO
more than in the like week in 1895;
103 more than the corresponding week
in 1894 and SO more than the CORE
spending week in 1894 and 90 more

ports of wheat, -four included, from
both coasts of the United States this
week, the total amounting to only L.

Condensed Record of the D0ings of the
Nations Lawmakers-senate.
Washington, March 21.-Cuba had
the entire attention of the senate today,
speeches being made by Gray, Chiffon
and Caffery, the debate being enlivened
by many spirited incidents. Gray's
plea for Cuba brought on a running
cross fire of comment and inquiry from
Hale. The Delaware senator caused
much amusement by referring to Hale
as the senator from Spain. A fresh,
vigorous contribution to the debate
came from Chiffon, who has seldom
addressed the senate. He urged that
there was abundant work at home to
occupy the attention of congress, in
stead of enlisting in humanitarian
crusades abroad, with their possibili-
ties of war. Caffrey also opposed the
Cuban resolutions. A resolution au-
thorizing the use Of the unexpended
balance of the appropriation for the
canal and locks on the Columbia river,
Oregon, amounting to $40, 900. was
adopted.
Washington. March 23.-During the
Cuban deabte in the senate the floor
was yielded temporarily by Sherman to
Allen, to state his views on the claim
Of Dupont. The statement had more
than passing interest, for the six
Populists votes are regarded as decisive
in the contest, and this was the first
expression of Populist senator. Allen
contended that Dupont was not entitled
to seat without certificate or cre-
Dental from the executive of the state,
and when this was lacking, as in this
case, the courts of the state could COM
pei the issuance of credentials by the
governor. A resolution, offered by
Chandler, was adopted for an inquiry

judge-advooate-general of the navy;
for the survey of the mouth of the Yu-
kon river, Alaska.
Washington, March 25.-An unex-
pected climax to the Cuban debate was
reached in the senate today when, on
motion Of Sherman, chairman of the
committee on foreign relations, the
Cuban resolutions were recommitted to
the committee. The vote to recommit
was unanimous and without the for
mality of roll.call. Sherman, Nor
gan and Lodge were appointed to rep
resent the senate in further confer
ence. Hoar gave notice of proposed
amendment to the rules for the purpose
of enabling the senate to dispose of
public business more promptly" It
proposes that when any bill or rasolu-
tion shall have been under considera-
tion for no less than four days, it shall
be in order for any senator to demand
that the debate theron be closed. If
the senate decides to close debate, the
question is to be taken on the measure
on its successive stages, according to
the rules, but without further debate,
except that every senator desiring
shall be permitted to speak not more
than once and not exceeding an hour.

Beached at High Tide.
Astoria, March 23.-The British
ship Glenmorag, Captain Archibald
Currie. of Glasgow, bound for Port
land, in ballast from Callao, went
ashore on North beach, about three
miles north Of Ocean Park, at 8 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. Two of the crew
were killed and four injured. The
ship struck about high water, and now
lies with her port side to the shore.
From Captain Currie, it is learned
that the first indication of danger was
the cry, Breakers on the port bowl"
from the man on the lookout. The
captain Immediately attempted to wear
around, and had almost succeeded
when the ship struck and swung round,
broadside on, with her head to the
southward. The after-port and star
board boats were at once cleared away
and lowered, both reaching the water
about the same time. The mate, who
was in the lee boat, attempted to pull
out to sea, but was forced to let her
drift inshore. The boat which had
been lowered on the weather side, in
rounding the stern, was caught by
tremendous sea and dashed up under
the ships counter, crushing the occu-
pants in cruel manner and smashing
the boat considerably. the air-tight
tanks with which she was provided
alone keeping her afoat. The captain
next set about lowering the forward
boat, and reached the shore in safety,
about an hour later.
On landing he discovered that two
men had been killed, James Adams
and John Keedy, and four injured.
The injured were removed to the hotel
at Ocean Park, where every attention
was given them.
The Glenmorag is an iron full-rigged
ship of 1867 tons register, and is
owned by R. & G. Allen, of Glasgow,
the same owners as the Strathblane,
which went ashore on the same beach,
but five miles below, just four years
ago. Captain Currie has been in COM
mand of her for the past nine years,
and up to yesterday has never had
serious accident. The srew speak

DECISION OF THE UPPER COURT
to Questions In Interstate Com
merce Matters Sustained.

merce Matters Sustained.
Washington, March 25.-A decision
was rendered by the supreme court of
the United States today in the case of
Theodore F. Brown, involving the
right of the court to compel an answer
commerce matters, Notwithstanding
that he may plead self determination
as result of the answer. The deci-
sion was opposed to Browns conten-
tion, that he was protected by the CON-
stitution from this requirement, and
the decision of the court below was
affirmed.
The opinion was handed down by
Justice Brown. Justices Field, Shiras,
Gray and White dissented, holding the
constitutional provision was sufficient
to relieve Brown from all requirements
to answer.
This was advanced on the docket of
the supreme court on motion Of the at
torney general made &C the instance of
the interstate commerce commission.
It was considered test case. and the
claim was set forth in letter written
fur the commission that large number
Of similar cases must wait upon IT'S
final decision by the court. The case
came to the supreme court on an appeal
taken by Brown from the decision Of
the circuit court for the western dis
trict of Pennsylvania in refusing to
grant writ of habeas A0orpus, and
arose from proceeding by the inter-
state commerce commission against the
Allegheny Valley Railway Company,
of which Brown is an officer He was
witness before the grand jury for the
commission in this case and refused to
answer certain questions propounded
to him, on the ground that in so doing
he might incriminate himself. He
was then proceeded against for con-
tempt of court, found guilty and sen
fenced to imprisonment Brown
pleaded his constitutional right of ST.
lence, but the statute of February IL,
1898. requiring answers in such ques-
tions, was invoked against him and
held to be valid by the circuit court.
In announcing his opinion, Justice
Brown said the question involved was
as to whether the law of 1898, specific.
ally relieving witnesses in interstate
commerce cases from prosecution, when
they reveal facts which might incrimi
nate Themselves, operates to take from
witnesses in such cases the privilege of
silence as guaranteed by the constitu-
tion, and the conclusion was that it
did. He said this act was in the ma
ture of general amnesty in such cases,
and had been SO regarded and upheld
in half dozen decisions in the state
courts.

Metropolis Assert That the
Spanish Cause is Lost.
Chicago, March 2s.-A dispatch to
the Times Herald from New York ssys:
The Cuban insurgents have dealt
Spain a crushing blow. Trustworthy
information has been received from
Havana that the battle fought few
days ago at Pinar del Rio, which the
dispatches sent with the sanction of
the press censor described as Spanish
victory, was in reality a lamentable
defeat for the forces of General Wey;;
Ter. This news reached Havana today,
and was sent to this city in a brief
cipher cablegram. The source of the
information leaves no doubt Of it's reli-
ability.
The Spanish officials will not permit
the report of insurgent successes to be
sent out of Havana. 1t is expected
that details of the battle will be smug-
gled over to Tampa and there put on
the wires.
1t is the firm opinion in this city
among persons informed of events in
Cuba that the Spanish cause is lost. II
is also believed, despite denials, that
this last defeat will so add to the dis
satifaotion against Weyler that either
his resignation or recall will follow.
