TO INSIST ON IT
United States Will Not Back
Down Regarding a Consul
ate at Harpoot.
Has q Number OF Reasons for
Desiring a Representative
at That Point.
Battleship Kentucky Will Visit
Smyrna and Good Results
Are Looked For.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-The Turkish
authorizes having refused to grant an
exequatur to DIR. Thomas II. Norton to
act as United States consul at Harpoot
the indications point to some reralia.
tory measures on the part Of our
government in the near future. The
Turkish contention now is that they
permitted United States consulate to
be established at Ezeroum under an
implied understanding that the United
States would abandon its claim to a
consulate at Harpoot. That there was
some shadow of foundation for this
understanding is admitted, but it is
still the purpose of the United States
to establish this consulate because the
British government has since been per-
mitted to locate consul at Harpoot
and, under the favored nation clause
of our treaty with Turkey, the United
States government claims the same
commercial privileges as Great Britain.
There is, beside, a peculiarly potent
reason for the presence Of United
States representative at Harpoot, for,
at that point is located some of the
Most Important and Flourishing
American missionary and educational
interests in Turkey. Moreover, being
located in the Armenian district where
SO many outrages upon Christians have
occurred. it is extremely desirable that
our government should have some i'm
partial and creditable representative to
protect the interests of American citi-
zens' there.
The last adverse decision of the Turk
ish government in this matter has not
modified the orders to the big battle
ship Kentucky to proceed from Naples
to smyrna.
1t is, of course, not expected that the
ship is to make war singie-handed on
Turkey, but it is thought that the
moral influence Of this exhibition of
American naval power may be bene-
fetal in settling the question of exc.
quatur as well as the long pending mis-
sionary claims against Turkey.
