THE SULTAN PAYS Up.

So long az the Sultan Of Turkey
evaded all claims made upon his govern
men; by the United States for lndem-
nifty for loses suffered at the time Of the
outrages IN Armenia there was a good
deal OF attention paid 10 the subject and
public interest in il was keen. In fact,
at one time when an American warship
sailed for he Mediterranean it was ru-
mored that the objec, was 10 compel
the sul;an's compliance by a display ot
force. Lately there has been very little
said about the subject. and now that
the announcement comes tha, the sultan
has pail $4,000, which our government
asked, IS treated as a matter Of course.
Il is natural that men should pay
more attention to matters Of strife than
Of peace, and have more to say about
man who talks 9t war than Of one
who goes quietly 10 work and accom-
plishes his ends by peaceful means; but
none the less the peaceful victories are
far more useful to a nation than strife,
and the man who achieves them de-
serves credit for his work.
When Secretary Hay undertook to re-
cover from the sultan the amounts due
10 injured Americans ne had a difficult
task upon his hands. The sultan has
had a long experience Of evading pay
ments Of all kinds Nearly every diplo-
matlsy Of high rank in Europe has a;
one tims or another been engaged in
the task Of getting a financial settle
me1t with the Turkish government. .
Most Of these claims are s,iu unpaid,
and consequently IN seeking ne pay
ments due Us our government had no,
only TO deal with the evasiveaess f
the Turk. bu, with the j-alousies 4
European governments who wisa=d F.
their own claims paid first.
The work OF bringing the SULTAN 90 I
a payment Of the claims has been under .
way for more than ten years. since i /
began several ministers have served .
this country al C5nstan,.1ople, but /
though each was jealous IN the task,
l,tla or nothing was accomplished be- ,
yond collecting evidence TO supper. The /.
claims and obtaining from -hs sul-an's
government some more or less serious
consideration Of them. Accordingly
when Secretary Hay entered tn state
department it was not expected that
he would be able to achieve more than
his predecessors. Many people believed
that We, like the nations Of Europe,
would have our Turkish claims as IN
everlasting possession. Il is therefore d
proof Of Mr. Hays diplomatic
frmness and tact that with The as
sistance Of the present American min
ister at Constantinople, Mr., Leishman,
the sultan has been brought not only 10
TO pay the indemnity but 70
actually pay It. The full sum Of $685.
100 has been paid over to the American
and drafts for it have been
received at Washington.
In comparison with the greater inter-
rational questions with Mr. Hay has
1ad to deal this of the Turkish claims
: but a small matter. Il nevertheless
lffords another proof Of his mastery
lbillty in handling diplomatic affairs.
Ie has succeeded where many before
lin failed, and some Of the greatest
oreign ministers in Europe would be
,lad if they could be equally effective in
ealing with the Turk.
