State Department Informed of the
Occurrence.


Occurrence.
Washington. Dec. 8.-The state de-
partment has received a brief cable
gram from Consul Davis at Alexandret-
ta. Asiatic Turkey. saying that he had
had trouble with the local police at
AleXandretta and had left for Beirut
i'm consequence. The state department
promptly cabled Minister Leishman at
COnstantinople TO institute a thorough
investigation of the whole affair. II is
expected that Minister Leishman will
call at the foreign office today TO in
qUire of the Turkish officials regarding
the matter.
The navy department has so far
taken no steps toward sending any
warships TO AleXandretta. The state
department officials informed the navy
department officials of what had hap
pened at that place. The san Fran
cisco and the Brooklyn are at Beirut,
which is distant 40 miles from Alexan-
dretta. The state department does not
anticipate any serious difficulty as q
result Of this incident, for it does not
doubt that the Turkish government
viii make proper amends for any mis-
conduct Of its officials at AleXandretta.
The state department has had end
less trouble with naturalized Ameri-
cans who insist on returning to Tur-
key. notwithstanding the fact that the
Turkish government has steadfastly re-
fused to recognize the right Of a Turk
ish subject to expatriate himself. and
the most shat our ministers and con-
suls have been able to do in such cases
is to secure the release Of the natural
ICED Armenian or Turk upon promise
to quit Turkey.

CONSUL DAVIS
WAS lNSULTED
United States Flag Hauled Down
at AlsxandTetta.
AN INVESTIGATION ORDERED
TROUBLE AROSE OVER A VISIT
ING ARMENIAN.

Constanunople, Dec. S.-The United
States nag over the consulate at Alex
andretta. Asiatic Turkey. has been
hauled down and Consul Davis has left
his post for Beirut in consequence of a
serious diplomatic incident. during
which Mr.. Davis was insulted and,as-
saulted by the local police.
The affair grew out of the arrest Of
an Armenian--Channes Attarian-a
naturalized American citizen, Alta
rian had been iB prison at Aleppo dur
ing the last two months and had Just
been liberated through the iuterveu-
ton Of the American consular agents,
on condition of his leaving the country
forthwith. Mr. Davis was accompany
ing Attarian on board a departing
steamer when the police intercepted
the party. assaulted ard insuited Mr.
Davis and, despite the resistance Of the
consul and his attendant guards. re-
arrested Attarian and took him back
to prison.
Lowered His Flag.
MIR. Davis Immediately lowered the
flag over the consulate and formally
broke Off relations with the Turkish
authorities by quitting AleXandretta,
leaving the consulate in charge of the
vice consul. A mob of MOslems seized
on the occasion to make a hostile DEM
orstratiOn against the consulate and
against the Christians generally. The
I local authorities assert that Mr.. Davis
struck the police with a cane and that

The Turkish authorities further claiHl

Fur Clad casteIIanes.

Although Anna, Countess de Castel
lane, has received no social recognition
to speak of, her presence in America is
felt by the youngest generation. The
fashion of dressing her two young
boys has interested scores of mothers.
The two little CasteIlanes spend much
of their time parading the avenue. be-
tween Forty-seventh5 and Thirty-third
streets. They wear entire suits of fur,
from their peaked hoods to their fur
leggins George, the eldest, wears
lynx, and his brother, Boni, wears
Russian squirrel. Their jackets, their
trousers and their attached hoods are
all of fur, and in this garb the boys
look like baby Eskintos. 1t is rather
pretty fashion, for the children's faces
are framed in fur, and, in the instance
of the Castellanes, this style suits
their interesting, dark countenances.
Rarely have such lively, prancing
children amused the avenue. Boni
dragged a sled the other morning
across the clear -pavements, but in
his aunt's Miss Helen Gould, private
yard, he was permitted to tumble in
real snow to his hearts delight. These
fur clothes for children are practical
for shedding, as the boy may simply
Waliow in heaps of snow without
catching cold, but an obstacle to the
popularity is the cost of the furS. The
cheapest fur suits fetch 5000.
