A VIGOROUS NOTE
Presented to the Sublime Porte by
the American Charge D'A flares,
Yesterday.
1t Was Not an Ultimatum, But is
Couched i'm Strong anguage and
Insists Upon an immediate Reply.
The Porte Disagreeably Surprised.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Saturday, June
2S.-Lloyd c. Griscom, United States
Charge d'Affaires, to-day presented a
fresh note to the Ottoman government,
insisting upon an immediate reply to
the United States for a settlement OF
the indemnity in connection with the
losses Of Americans at the time OF the
Armenian massacres.
Although vigorously phrased, tne
note is not an ultimatum. 1t is said
however, to have been a disagreeable
surprise to the Porte, testifying as i;
does to the intention of the United
States government to pursue this matter
Of indemnity to the end.

A TALE OF TWO KIDS,

This isn't a tale of two cities. It's
simply a brief account of two babies.
They occupied almost an equal amount
of space in a big New York paper, a
few days ago. One of them, Paul
Mathis, was sold by his starving, de-
serted and despairing mother, on a reg
ular bill of sale, for $100, to a woman
who had money but no babe. The other
case was that of John Nicholas Brown,
worth ten millions as soon as he was
born, and who will have thirty mil
lions when he is twenty-one years of
age. Here is a contrast as sharp as any
ever drawn by the pen of a romancist.
1t would be interesting to follow the
lives of these human units, to see
wheeler he who was sold for a century
note to relieve the distress of his
mother does not run equal in the race
with him who had millions for his
birthright.

the administration claim that the war
is over. On the contrary, 1t showed
that the natives of the islands were
very much alive and decidedly belliger-
mt. Nine American soldiers killed,
two officers and ten men wounded and q
sergeant missing. out of a total force
of one hundred men of the Fortieth
regiment, with the Americans forced to
retire, constitute a very nasty little af-
fair, and shows that the elements of
what the administration would prob
ably call discord and discomfort still
exist.

AN INTERESTING DISCUSSION.

The United States District Court at
Boston has just made a bankruptcy Ge-
cision of considerable interest to busl-
ness men. Section 50 Of the Bank
ruptcy law provides that when the cred
itors of a. bankrupt exceed twelve in
number three of them are necessary TO
be joined in a petition to have the debt
Or declared a bankrupt. In the Mat
ter OF Miller ct al, it appeared that
there were eighty creditors, all OF
whom. with the exception of the Amer
lean Wooden Company and one or two
others, assented to an assignment. 1t
refused on the ground that the firm
vas able to pay 100 cents on the dol
lar instead of So cents which it offered.
Objection was made to the petition of
the wooden company on the ground that
there more than twelve creditors, and
therefore that three were required to
bring a petition. The company contend
ed that there were less than twelve
creditors, inasmuch as those who as
sented to the assignment ceased to be
creditors who could join in bankruptcy
proceedings. The Court sustained the
contention of the company, holding that
the creditors who assented to the as
signment could not be joined in the
petition, and therefore could not be
counted in reckoning the number of
creditors under section SO of the Bank
ruptcy law, and that, therefore, the
wooden company had the right to bring
the petition alone.

Secretary Long returned from an

day resumed charge of affairs, relieving
Assistant Secretary Hackett. The Sec
rotary looks greatly refreshed. About

arrival was the fighting and bloodshed
of the American marine forces near
Tien Tsin.
Order COuntermanded.
Later in the day the order contem-
plating the sending of the monitor
Monadnock to Taku was countermand-
ed. Admiral Remey reported that the
vessel had been stripped of her officers,
presumably for duties on the other yes
sells, and for this and other reasons it
was not deemed advisable to send her.
Secretary Long said that he expected
Admiral Remey with the flagship
Brooklyn would get way from Manila
promptly for China, probably tonight.
No further news came from Admiral
Kempff during the evening.
The Chinese officials according to adj
vices received here are apprehensive as
to the possible effect of the landing of
foreign troops on their territory. Min
lister Wu's advices show this to be the
case and they are using every effort to
avert such action because of the effect
it may have on the people.

by any means, despite the wishes of Han

of Col. Roosevelt.

BERLIN, June 24.-An unfavorable
impression is caused here by the at

distrust of Germany in connection with

in the Chinese empire and that the
future will clearly demonstrate Ger

the six delegates to the National Re-

have contributed $4,000 each to

then they were anything but gentle

about this particular case is that the
