There is no diminution in the rancor
displayed by the Mussulmans towards
the Armenians and no sign of the re-
linquishment of the Turks contention

against the sovereignty of the sultan
and, as such, invite the stringent re-
pressive measures that have been used
against them.
Since Friday there has been large
increase of the patrols of cavalry in Thre.
rapia, the suburb of Constantinople in
which are situated the French and
English ambassadors residences, and
in Buyuknere and Pera. This is the
sultan's precautionary measure against
future outrages, in compliance with the
warning contained in the note from the
powers.
Orders Of the Dryad. E. II
The British vessels carrying Arme-
nian refugees are guarded by the Brit
ish warship Dryad, while in these
waters, in order to prevent the arrest Of
their passengers by the Turkish author
tiles. The Dryad's commander has
received explicit instructions from the
British ambassador to resist any inter
ference with the rights of British ves-
sells on the high seas.
The refusal of the Roumanian author
tiles to permit Armenian refugees to
land in Roumania has created very
bad impression in European circles,
and may lead to serious complications
later on.
The joint Commission.
The joint commission Of Europeans
and Turks, appointed to inquire into
the recent massacres and their origin,
held it's preliminary meeting on Satur-
day, but the fact that most of the Ar
menians who could furnish the neces-
sary evidence to place the blame where
it belongs have been killed, imprisoned
or banished, leaves the commission lit.

police officials, whose evidence literally
amounts to nothing at all. But the
work of the commission, happily, has
been forestalled by the embassies, where
all the evidence necessary to conclu-
sively prove that the massacres were
officially planned and authorized from
the palace has been collected and sub

CRISIS APPROACHING
OTTOMAN EMPIRE THREATENED
WITH DETERMINATION.

Limit Of Patience Reached and European
Powers Likely to Act Soon-Sultan
Seems Unconscious Of the Blow Now
About to he Struck.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Sept. 14.-To those
who have eyes to see there there is more
and more evident the approach of q
crisis in the affairs of the decrepit Otto
man empire. But the Turk himself
offers no signs of an appreciation of the
fate that is impending over him in the
limit that has apparently been reached
in the patience of the European powers
with the rsocess of determination Of
the Armenians that has been steadily
and relentlessly pursued by the Turks.

In the state legislature the Democrats
win have less than half dozen Of the
representatives in the house and not
one In the senate.
As anticipated, the Republicans polled
. tremendous vote and secured many
Democratic ballots. On the other hand
many disaffected Democrats remained
at home and only few voted for the
nominee of the gold standard wing.
The Populists and Prohibitionists votes
have been received only from a few
towns, but it is evident that neither
party polled as large vote as two
years ago.
An Interesting Campaign.
The present campaign was the most
interesting Maine has seen in 70 years,
II ever In her history. 1t has presented
the unique feature Of son arrayed
against father in the case of the Hon.
Harold Sewau Of Bath, who took the
stump to argue against the principles OF
Hon. Arthur Sewall, the Democratic
nominee for wee president. But in all
the strife and contention the contest
was remarkably free from personalities.
The most effective work was done from
the stump and never did more for.
midable array Of campaign orators ex'
pound Republican doctrines in New
England state. But the struggle was
mot entirely one-sided. With internal
dissensions and lack Of funds to con.
tend with the Democrats
Made . Very Strong Fight,
especially in the cities. Candidate
Frank did good work on the stump,
and while the speakers, generally from
outside the state, were not orators OF
great fame, their work was productive
Of some results. In the last two weeks
the gold Democrats took a hand in the
struggle and several Of their leaders ad-
dressed large audiences in the cities but
the returns indicate that the principal
effect of their participation in the cam
paign was to strengthen the Repubh-
can ranks. Candidate Bateman was
the main strength of the Populists in
their canvass, his efforts being mainly
devoted to keeping the members OF his
party who favored free silver out OF the
Democratic ranks. In none OF the con
gressional districts was there close
contest. All Of the Democratic candi.
dates for congress evidently believed
that il was impossible to defeat the Re-
publican nominees, and their canvass
was not very active.

est display ever witnessed by the clti
zens of Washington was the Easter
opening of Messrs House and Herr

Cor. of 9TH and | streets, northwest on
last Monday night.
From the hour that it announced
that the opening would take place,
thousands of people assembled on the
outside seeking admission
Every minute or SO the cable car
would stop at the corner and crowds OF
people get off, and owing to the crowd
on the inside, from basement to
dome admission was impossible.
On the second floor fine orchestra
was placed and classic music poured
forth which caused one to imagine
that he was among the grandure OF

The red Venetian cloakS that gentle
men of an artistic turn of mind set uI
in 1891 were very much admired
by their womenkind, and now Venetian
red cloth dresses are coming in fol
ladies. One of the smartest walking
toiletteS that has been seen this spring,
was made of it, relieved with black
satin tabs, each of which was fastened
down with fancy button.
Grass cloth is fast coming in as a
bodice material, and it is embroidered
with open work designs the color OF
the dress appears underneath it.
Mohairs, goats hair cloth bareges,
grenadines, canvas, will be preferred
to crepons. For dressy wear, soft
satins and glace silks, with printed
patterns, taffetaS chimes with flowers,
leaves, or without will be most seen
Tulle will be much in vogue for balls
and evening dresses.
In the make of dresses it is again
rumored that they will be two distinct
changes, namely, the sleeves reduced
in size and the skirts trimmed either
with flounces or bows of Louis XIV.
ribbon.
The general effects of the gowns thus
far are puffy and volumonious, es-
pecially with the capes in light material
covered with frills or fiounCes, rucheS,
ribbons, etc.
In the way of bonnets, miliners are
trying to bring in again wide ribbon
strings tied under the chin, but as it is
not becoming and also warm mode in
summer, it is likely not to be accepted.
Togues and hats are moderate in size,
the capoteS small ornaments, rather
high than wide, and consisting princi-
pally of masses of flowers.
Fawn capes are popular and the
newest are made with double box
pleats turned inward not outward, in
the middle of the back and over each
shoulder.
Many Capes whether in black or fawn,
are covered with applique designs in
cloth or silk, showing velvet under
meath.
Cotton chevoits will be greatly used
for the finer grades of shirt waists, and
can also be utilized for entire dresses.
Buttons will be used on every style
of dress and braiding will be much
seen on tailor-made gowns, not only
the fat braid but round cording.
Much trimming is the order of the
day in cape fashions. Broadcloth
capes in Spring-like shades of tan with
elaborate applique work, are seen in
all the stores.
