TLLMAN AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
He Has a Good Natured Chat With
President Mckinley.

Washington, March Ex-senator Till
man was among the callers at the white
house to-day. 1t was his first visit to the
executive mansion since he entered the
Senate. and he attracted greater attention
than the average congressional caller.
Senator Tillman said he simply called to
pay his respects. He was on hand a few
minutes before 10 o'clock.
Arthur Simmons, the colored doorkeep-
er to the entrance to the Presidents room,
didn't know who he was when the senator
took seat in the lobby. Simmons found
out in a few minutes, and almost collaps-
ed. Surprise showed in his good natured
black face. So soon as it was 10 O'Clock,
Simmons hastened to invite the South
Carolina pitchfork man to enter.
President Mckinley had ascertained that
the senator was waiting and promptly
sent word to have him admitted. The
South Carolina senator was one of the first
men to talk with the President and they
had chat of ten minutes, apparently of
great interest to each other. The President
inquired how the senator liked his work,
and whether things were quiet enough
for him; also desiring to know if the
prongs of the pitchfolk were sharpened.
Then the President mentioned the extra
session of congress, and expressed the be-
lief that the passage of a tariff bill would
do much to brighten things up in the
county.
We'll, We will see what it will do" said
the South Carolinian. 81 know that the pa
tient is very sick We will try your physic,
and if that doesn't cure him, then we will
have to try ours which think is the only
thing which will cure him"
1t is needless to say that the senator S
remedy is free silver and the President
fully understood him. The two men parted
with mutual pleasant words.
1t is well known fact that Senator Till
man hated ex-President Cleveland so
fiercely that he never spoke to him during
his last term, and never indorsed an appli-
cant who wanted office under President
Cleveland. The senator is full of praise of
the democracy of President Mckinley

TREATY STILL UNDER FIRE.
Chiffon and Morgan Again Open
Their Guns On It,

Washington, March 25.-The debate in
the Senate on the arbitration treaty this
afternoon was of short duration. Mr..
Chiffon spoke for almost an hour on his
amendment to the first article. which
amends that article so as to provide that
only such matters shall be submitted 10
arbitration as the Senate, then In exist
ence, may deem proper for arbitration.
Mr.. Chiffon advocated his amendment
with a great deal of warmth and contend
ed that II, as has been asserted, the terms
of the treaty were interpreted as mean
ing this, there could be no good objection
raised to the insertion of words that made
that Interpretation unmistakable. II was
In the interest of clearness and should be
accepted as such by all friends of the
treaty. Without his modification, Mr..
Chiffon said, the United States
might in the future be
charged with violating it's treaty obliga-
tons, IL II refused to submit certain oues-
tions to arbitration when they arose as
matters of difference between The two
countries. He did not want the United
States to be placed in an embarrassing
position of this kind, and deemed lt the
part of prudence to make the text of the
convention so perfectly plain that there
could be no quibbling over what 1t means
or what the Senate had in mind when the
treaty was agreed to, IL It should be
agreed to. The debates were secret, end
in the future the cold, hard text Of the
treaty would alone be accepted as the
expression of what was intended when the
convention was ratlhediand proclaimed to
the world.
MIR. Morgan again spoke in favor OF the
amendment. and took the occasion to eS-
press his displeasure at any proposed
treaty with Great Britain that had for its
purpose any general scheme of arbitra-
tion. The whole thing was snare and
a pitfall, but If there we're sufficient votes
in the Senate to ratify the convention,
Senator Morgon said. he wanted II made
as nearly perfect as possible.
Messrs. Gray, Davis, Hoar and Lodge
interrupted Mr.. Chiffon with questions
tending to show that his conclusions were
erroneous. They also injected statements
in support of the committee amendments,
which had been agreed to, as being sufii-
cient to cover every possible criticism that
could be made against the treaty.
Senator Gray took the floor in opposition
TO the Chiffon amendment after Mr.. Nor
gan had concluded, but not desiring to 60
on to-day. the Senate came out of execu-
tive session and resumed the consideration
of legislative business.

sAVANNAH's QUARANTINE.
Complaint Made to the state Depart
ment by n British Vessel.

Atlanta Ga. March 25.-'rhe state de-
partrnent at Washington. wants Georgia TO
modify her quarantine regulation so that
ships coming to these ports may not be
detained so long for disinfecton. Gov. At
kinson to-day received a letter from AS
slstant Secretary of State w. W. Rockhlll
asking him for copies OF the Georgia regu-
latlons and suggesting that a change
would be desirable If II could be made
without endangering the public health.
The governor referred the letter to May
or Meldrim of Savannah, as the case
which caused the department to take no.
tice of the regulations, came up in that
port.
1t seems that complaint was made to
the British embassy at Washington that
the British bark Gullpere was detained
longer than the officers of the ship
thought necessary al the Tybee quarantine
station, and the matter was duly submitted
to the Secretary of State. probably upon a
claim for damages for the detention. The
matter was communicated to Gov. AtI6in-
son, but he could not see that he had any
thing 20 do with II and referred 1t to the
mayor of Savannah. III Savannah thinks
the regulations might be changed without
endangering public health, the mayor will
probably have the matter taken up
through the proper channel

TAKAT,s MASSACRE.
The Number of Armenians Killed
Now Reported at 700.


Constantinople, March 25.-Further and
probably more accurate details of the re-
cent massacre of Armenians at Tokat, in
the Swas district of Anatolia have been re-
ceived at the Armenian patriarchate here
The first report of the affair was issued
by the government. This declared that
fifteen Armenians and three Mussulmans
had been killed. Little reliance was placed
in the report, for the officials have always
made it a rule to understate the humber
of persons killed in the various massacres.
Later information was received at the tm-
bassies showing that fully 100 defenseless
Armenians had fallen victims to the fury
of the Moslems at Tokat, and this num-
ber. 1t was thought, was probably correct,
The news received to-day at the patriar-
chate shows that both state
ments were Incorrect and that
the number of victims was
fully 200. 1t was stated to-day that these
figures were obtained from reliable per-
sons, and that the number of victims
stated is without doubt correct.
Sir Philip Currie, the British ambassa-
dor, made most vigorous protest against
the massacre, in note to the porte, a
note which was said to have been the
strongest ever delivered by an ambassa-
dor to the Turkish government.
The result of his action was shown to-
day when the sultan ordered the dismissal
and immediate arrest of the Turkish off,
cials in Tokat who are suspected of COM
plicity in the massacre and the appoint
ment of a special commission to try them.
1t is believed that the British ambassa-
dor will watch the trial closely to see
that it does not prove farce, as so many
trials of Moslem officials charged with the
murder of Christians have been.
Mgr. Ormanian, the Armenian patri-
arch has made protest to the sultan
against the murders at Tokat, and has
added force to his protest by insisting
that the sultan shall accept his resgna-
ton, which was rendered some time ago
At that time the sultan refused to accept
it, and promised the patriarch that furth-
er concessions would be made to the
Armenians. His majesty asked, however,
that the granting of these concessions be
deferred until after Easter. The mass
acre at Tokat followed.
Eight Armenians were arrested here to-
day as a measure of precaution, the gov
ernment fearing that the news of the To-
kat massacre might precipitate an out
break. The prisoners are suspected of
having been engaged in an attempt to
make a demonstration here.
London March 25.-The correspondent
of the Chronicle telegraphs that another
agent of the British relief fund for the
benefit of suffering Armenians. has been
killed near Diaborkir, aand. robbed of sl50.
The agent was a Gregorian priest.

British and American merchantmen and

blockade, Mr.. Curzon said, was a measure
of police enforced with the consent Of the
sovereign power.
Mr.. Curyon also said that Sir Philip Cur
