dispatch from Thomas II. Norton, consul
Of the United States at Harput, announc-
ing his arrival at Harput. December q.

nine miles to meet Mr.. Norton. The Amer

awaiting the issuance to him by the Tur-
kish government of an exequatur, which
as consul The porte was reluctant to
grant this for the reason that Harput Is
storm center in the Turkish dominions. and
II was felt that the presence of foreign con-
suls would give strong moral support to he
latent rebellious tendencies of the Arme-
mans in that section.
But the British government having Sc
cured an entry for its consul at Harput. the
United States government felt that 1t had
the right to claim the same privilege. Much
correspondence followed between the gov
ernments of the United States and Turkey,
and this has finally resulted In the issue
by the latter government, not of an exc
quatur, but a permission for DIR. Norton TO
proceed to his post. an indication of pur-
pose to allow him to exercise his functions.

MAY AFFECT CANAL
Concession to British Company on San
Juan River.
OPERATING Line OF STEAMERS
Sir William Forwood Talks of His
Firms Possession.
MUST BE CON LIED

NEW YORK, January 2s.-Sir William
Forwood who is a member of a ship-oWnlng
firm which owns conc ession that. 1t Is
alleged, gives it control Of nav CATION on the
San Juan river for distance Of about fifty
miles from Lake n .carag a, is in this city.
Sir William denied to reporter today that
his presence here has any connection with
the Nicaragua concession which his firm
holds but added:
1T is true that our company holds con-
cession for q aVigation of the San Juan
river and un,.+. It's terms we are now OPP
Grating vessels on the river and also on
Lake Nicaragua as far as Managua. The
concession was obtained in the natural
course of business expansion, and without
any regard to the possible construction of
an interoceanic canal along this route.
Under the terms of our concession We have
gone To the expense Of building line of
railroad from Greytown to a point on the
San Juan river where navigation begins,
and we now convey merchandise back ana
forth between the coast and points on
Lake Nicaragua by this combined rail- and
vessel route.
Il don't see how ii would be possible for
the builder of a canal whether n govern
ment or a private company. to take possess
sion of the San Juan river without consult
ing us as the holders of the concession. AT
the same time l do not wish to be quoted
as saving that our concession will inter-
fere in any way with the project of an in
teroceanic canal across Nicaragua. should
the United States decide to build such q
canal Our interests are small compared
with the gigantic nature of such a project.
