Last week Mr. Leishman informed the Porte that he would not discuss other matters until the terms of the settle ments already agreed upon had been car ried out. The demands included the re- building of the American mission house at Kharput destroyed at the time of the Armenian messacre snd the granting of permission to Armenian women and chill dren to join their husbands and fathers who are naturalized Americans. His in tercourse has been with the Turkish min ister of foreign affairs, whose agreements have been anrulled by the grand vizier.
