THE TURKISH OUTRAGES !
The Senate Passes Resolutions Urging
Decisive Action.
SUPPORT OF CONGRESS PLEDGED.
To the President in the Most Vigorous
Action He May Take For the Pro-
lection of American Citizens
in the sultan's Domains.

WASHINGTON Jan. 25.-After brief but
stirring debate the senate yesterday agreed
to the concurrent resolution urging de-
eisive action by the European powers
against Turkey. and pledging to the presi-
dent the support of congress in the most
vigorous action he may take for the pro-
lection of American citizens in Turkey.
Mr.. Cullom, of Illinois, who reported the
resolution, urged its adoption in u speech
which set forth the startling extent Of the
massacres, the greatest in the history of
the world, the senator said. Mr.. Blanch-
ard, of Louisiana, spoke in the same line.
The climax of the debate was reached
when Mr.. Frye, of Maine, supported the
resolution in speech which aroused great
enthusiasm from the galleries for its ex-
pressions of sympathy with the Arme-
mans and for its bitter arraignment of
Great Britain's course towards America.
The following is the essential feature Of
the resolution:
InaO II Is tn imperative duty, in the in
terest of humanity, to express the earnest
hope that the European concert brought
about by the Berlin treaty may speedily
be ven it's just effect in such decisive
measures as shall stay the hand Of fanata-
cism and lawless violence, and as shall Sc
cure to the unoffending Christians of the
Turkish empire all the rights belonging
to them, both as men and Christians, and
as beneilciaries of the explicit provisions
Of the treaty above recited.
Resolved, That the president be re-
quested to communicate these resolutions
to the government of Great Britain, Ger
many, Italy and Russia.
Resolved, That the senate Of the United
States, the house of representatives con-
curing, will support the president in the
most vigorous action he may take for the
protection and security of American citi-
zens in Turkey and to obtain redress for
injuries committed upon the persons of
such citizens.
Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, gave notice that
on Thursday next he would ask the senate
to sit until vote was taken on the silver
bond bill. MIR. Baker, of Kansas, spoke
for an hour on limiting the pending silver
coinage substitute to the silver of Ameri-
can mines.
Inerc were no important incidents at the
night session of the house, which was de-
voted to the consideration of private pen
sion bills. About twelve bills were passed.
among them one to pension the widow of
the late General William Cogswell of
Massachusetts,, at SO per month This
bill has passed the senate.

THAT REPORTED ALLIANCE.
Despite Oficial Dcn.ais, 1t - Believed a
Treaty Has Bgeh Concluded.

Despite Otiicial Dcn.ais, 1t - Believed a
Treaty Has Eeeh Concluded.
LONDON, Jan. 35.--iu spite OF the denials
official and semi-oilicial, that have been
made from many quarters, the report of
the offensive and defensive alliance be-
tween Russia and Turkey which was
printed by The Pail Mall Gazette on
Thursday is not viewed with entire in
creduliUy. Special dispatches published
by the London newspapers this morning
from the European capitals, notably from
Berlin, Paris and Vienna, show u tend
ency to admit the possibility that Russo
Turkish treaty has been concluded.
1t is pointed out with obvious plausi-
bility that Turkeys impecuniosity may
have driven her to seek an alliance as a
means of obtaining loan, as was the case
recently with China. If such treaty has,
in fact, been concluded it is certain that
the fact will be kept secret until the last
moment. So far there has been no au-
thentic confirmation of the report from
any quarter.

FINANCE AND TRADE.



NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-R. G.. Dun s. Co. 8
weekly review of trade says: The week
has been marked by improvement appar-
ent rather than real. Prices of some pro
ducts have risen, but only because sup
plies are believed to be smaller than was
expected. The senate still Injuries all bust
ness by doing nothing, and the treasury
cannot expect to gain in gold as yet, but
loses less than was expected. 1t is gener-
ally assumed that the new loan will be
placed without difficulty, though the sue
oessive payments may cause continued dis
turbance.
Textile industries do not gain, because
the demand for future delivery is so mar
row Cotton manufacturers have for
months been storing up staple goods, but
prices have gradually declined ever since
Oct. H. The iron and steel business finds
encouragement in the advance of Bessemer
pig to Sl3 at Pittsburg, and grey forge to
Sll25 but these are results Of the advance
ordered by combinations in coke and ore.
The demand is plainly too small for the
supply, and the works in operation are
killing profits for each other by under
bidding.
The failures for the week have been 1878
in the United States, against 1853 for the
same week last year, and 81 in Canada
against SO last year.
Bradstreets' review says An analysis
of special kilograms to Bradstreets' from
the more important business centers
throughout the country shows consider
able irregularity in trade the most favor.
able feature being the tendency of staple
prices to advance.

CITIZENS PRIMARIES HELD.
Unprecedented Vote POlled by Candidates
in the Third Ward.
TOSH AND BIERSTEIN WIN.
Justice Dengler is Renominated by the Citi-
zens of the Second ward-Edward Mason
Nominated for High Constable-A
Ticket Put up in the First Ward.

The most spirited primary ever held in this
town was that in the Third ward last night.
The ward has frequently been the field of
stubborn, hard battles and many times have
the votes been rolled up to surprising figures,
but last night the climax was capped and it
is doubtful if as many votes will be polled at
any primary election in the ward within the
next few years. Last year the people
marveled when the votes at the primaries
ran up to 1884. Last night they aggregated
4l6, or but20 votes short of what was polled by
both the Citizens and Democratic parties at
the election in that ward last February,
when the Democrats made desperate at
tempt to elect their candidate to Council.
The causes of the great poll were due to big
fights made by Councilman T. J. James and
Constable Thomas Tosh for denomination,
and Justice p. W. Bierstein for nomination
to the Office to which he was appointed last
year. Mr.. James race changed surprisingly
and he won in q canter, but TOsh and Baker
and Bierstein and Kimmel were neck-and-
neck from start to finish. For over an hour
while the vote was being counted the tally
did not vary ten between Tosh aud Blaker
Mr.. William T. Trezise has reason to feel
proud over the excellent manner in which
he was carried through the complicated
battle. He had no opposition and, therefore,
every vote cast for him was of compli-
mentary nature, and he received 346 of them.
This demonstrates in an unquestionable
manner that it is the wish of the people that
Mr. Trezise shall be returned as a member of
the School Board and that they have every
confidence in him as their representative in
that body. The compliment is emphasized
| by the fact that Mr.. Trezise received from Al
| to 80 votes more than the other candidates
before the primary who had no opposition.
The much-talked-of fight at the Second
ward primary over the nomination for JUS
tice of the Peace between Justice C. w.
/ Dengler and Thomas Bells resulted in an
easy victory for the former. The votes
| pollcd exceeded by one the number polled in
the hot contest between John j. Price and
B. c. Church for the nomination for School
Director at last years primary. Justice
| Dengler was nominated by majority of 81
In the three other wards there were no
contests except ON the nomination for High
Constable, and in that Edward Mason proved
a victor III every ward. Mason's aggregate
majority over the present incumbent, James
Emanuel, is 2l3. He received majority of
4 in the First ward, 9s in the Second, lO6 in
the Third, 80 in the Fourth and ? in the
! Fifth
