POOR ARMENIA.
The Turks Quietly Massacreing the Unfortu-
nate Race-Have Given Up Hope.

According to a printed report. the
Turks in Armenia, fearing European
Intervention, have abandoned the old
practices of wholesale massacre, but
during the last year there have been
clandestine butcheries and most terri
bic prosecutions, especially in the more
remote provinces. The Turks openly
boast that they have sworn to wipe
out the whole Armenian race.
The document recites in detail vari-
Gus forms of persecution. 1t appears
that the tax collectors seize the in
habitants If they do not pay everything
demanded. Women are taken through
the streets with chains around their
necks and kept for days. without food.
Tn some cases they are fastened to pill
lars. head downwards. Freezing water
Is thrown over them, or they are beaten
until the blood runs. In other cases
their hands are tied Behind their backs
and then cats, first made furious, are
thrown upon their bosoms. Often they
are burned in various parts of their
bodies with redhot irons.
"All the highways are guarded so as
to prevent emigration. Not single
day passes without one hearing of or
witnessing somewhere within our un-
fortunate provinces some act of fend-
ish cruelty. The Turks and kurds en-
ter the houses of Armenians In gangs
and commit fiendish outrages."
The document concludes with the de-
spairing cry, "Our hope Is dying out.
God help us. May Europe have pity
upOn us.

TROPICAL GREENLAND.
Scientists Leave for the North to Verify I'm.
portant Discoveries

Two scientists of Washington, Mr.. c..
ID. White and Mr.. Charles Schuchert,
acting under orders from the national
museum, left recently for Boston,
where they will join the Peary expedi-
tion which starts for the Arctic regions
in few days. The two scientists Will
disembark at Disco Island off the west
crn coast of Greenland, at about the
10th parallel. Recent discoveries in
this region have brought to light fossils
which IL is said tend to prove that
Greenland was once a country of trop-
ical climate. Disco Island and the ad-
jacent mainland Of Greenland Is espec-
tally rich in interesting fossils and for
nations. Until the latter part of Sep
tember the two men will pursue their
Investigations, when they will look for
the return of the Peary ship.

TO SEIZE HAWAII.
The AmeIican Flag to be Raised on the Island,
Should Japan Interfere.

A special dispatch from Washington
to the Chicago Times Herald" says:
THE administration has taken steps
to keep its grip on Hawaii. Any ag-
gressive interference on the part of
Japan will result in the landing OF ma
rines and the hoisting of the American
flag, with or without the ratification of
the pending annexation treaty. The
administration, realizing that some
crisis might arise while the treaty still
hangs fire in the Senate, have taken
steps to be prepared for any emer-
gency. Rear Admiral Bardsley will
have, when the next steamer arrives in
Honolulu, instructions giving him
power to act at the first sign of aggres-
sion on the part of Japan or trouble OF
any kind with which local authorities
are not able to cope. Rear Admiral
Beardsley will be given sufficient force
to carry out the programme that events
may force upon him.
1T is definitely settled that the bat
tleship Oregon, now en- route to san
Francisco from Seattle, will be dis
patched to Hawaii as soon as she can
be prepared for the voyage. This will
give Admiral Beardsley three vessels
the Oregon, Philadelphia and Marion.
Japan has at present but one vessel in
the harbor of Honolulu-the cruiser
Nanwa. She has another cruiser at
San Francisco, awaiting orders which
may take her to the Hawaiian Islands"

THE TARIFF BILL FINALLY PASSED.
BONDS TAXED.
Six Weeks Of Discussion Results In New
Revenue Measure.

BY the decisive vote OF SO to 2S the
Wednesday. The elimination of the
long and arduous struggle had excited
the keenest interest and the floor and
galleries OF the senate chamber were
crowded by those anxious to witness
the closing scene.
An analysis Of the final vote shows
that the affirmative was cast by thirty
five Republicans, two silver Republic
ans, Jones of Nevada and Mantle, ana
one Democrat, McEnery. Total, 3s.
The negative vote was cast by twen-
ty-five Democrats. two Populists.
Harris of Kansas and Turner. and one
silver Republican. Cannon. Total. 2s
Eight Republicans were paired for the
bill and eight Democrats against II.
The senators present and not voting
were: Populists, five, viz: Allen, Butler,
Heitfeld. Kyle and Steward; silver Re-
publicans two. Teller and Pettigrew.
One Of the most important new pro-
visions added by the senate is that
placing a stamp tax on bonds, deben-
lures and certificates Of stock. Aside
from these more important changes,
the bill. as 1t goes back to the house,
has S4 amendments. Of various de-
grees of Importance, which must be re-
conciled between the two branches of
congress.
The tariff debate began on May 25. on
which day Mr.. Aldrich. in behalf of the
finance committee, made the opening
statement on the bill. The actual con-
sideration Of the bill began the next
day, May 26, when schedule A, relating
to chemicals was taken up. The de-
bate has been continuous since then,
covering six weeks and one day. II has
been notable in some respects, although
II has lacked many of the dramatic and
oratorical features marking past de-
bates. From the outset the advocates
of the bill refrained from set speeches.
and the discussion was narrowed to a
consideration Of rates and schedules
rather than general principles. Alli-
son has been in charge.
Mr.. Aldrich's illness took him from
the chamber after the first day. and
since then the bill has been in immedi-
ate charge of Mr.. Allison. The opposi-
tion has been directed in the main by
Mr. Jones Of Arkansas and Mr.. West
OF Missouri while Senators White, Caf-
ferry, Gray and Allen have frequently
figured in the debate. The bill, as II
goes back to the house, re-enacts the
antitrust sections of the Wilson act,
while the reciprocity and retaliatory
provisions are substituted for those of
the house.
Representatives of the House and
Senate are now in conference trying to
reach an agreement on the new tariff.

WANTS TO FIGHT.
Turkey Dissatisfied with the Inactivity Of
the Powers


A few days ago the Porte dispatched
a circular to its representatives abroad
containing a skillful defense Of the
Turkish case and declining to consider
any frontier line in Thessaly north OF
the River Peneios. which 1t regards as
the natural boundary.
1t appears that the Sultan has con.
vinced himself that the Powers will not
resort to coercion. and has decided to
test the alleged concert OF Europe to
the utmost. On Monday he summoned
council of Ministers for an extraor-
dinary sitting to the YildiZ Kiosk, With
the result that after heated discussion
report was drawn up In favor OF re
suming hostilities IL peace should nor
be concluded within week. The Min
lister ofWar sent a telegram to Edhem
Pasha announcing the decision.
The Turks are rapidly Strengthening
their position in Thessaly, massihp

harvest has already been reaped by the
Turkish soldiers and large quantities.
of grain have been stored at Elassoh.
According to circumstantial report ~
n conversation between the Sultan and
an officer of his household. Abdul Ham.
i'd complained that the war had been
forced upon him, and that when he WAS
victorious Europe refused him eth or
territory or indemnity. Therefore he
intended to resist to the utmost.
After a discussion lasting over M
hour the Cabinet decided that me

Is the expectation of the President that

half of the State of California Rev.

Must Have Our Hons,

II is altogether likely that the sur
plus stock of hops in the United States,
held principally by brewers, will have
some serious inroads made into 1t this
year for export to England. because of
the smallness of the crop there, the av-
erage being the smallest known in 20
years. Louis r. Searles, one of the
large dealers i'm New York State and
Pacific coast hops, says that even with
the most favorable crop reports In
England that can possibly be made
there must be large importations from
the continent and the United States,
and the brewers will be obliged to use
up considerable of their surplus of
two years ago.

POWERS ADVICE 70 THE SAIlh.
TO GIVE UP rHEssALY.
Ths Rulers Dissuads the Turk From Sending
Troops Into crsts.

Queen Victoria, Emperor william.
Emperor Nicholas. President Faure and
King Humbert have replied to the tel
egrams received by them from the sui
tan. and all give advice similar to that
sent by Emperor Francis Joseph that
he give up Thessaly.
Emperor William says In substance
that he regrets his inability to dissoci-
ate himself from the views held by the
other powers. Replies to the circular
of the Turkish government to the pow
ers relative to the frontier question
have also been received by the ambas-
sadors. They all decline to admit the
Turkish pretensions.
The porte has sent another circular
to the powers, proposing that. in view
of the disturbed condition existing in
Crete. Turkey send reinforcements TO
the island. To this the powe have al
so replied, endeavoring to dissuade the
porte from such a step. This latest
proposal on the part OF the Turkish
government Is held to indicate that the
sultan does not intend to yield In re-
gerd to the frontier question.
