CONSIDERED IMPORTANT.
Concessions Obtained From Turkey
by American Minister.

by American Minister.
Washington, March 10-The state
department has not been fully advised
of the concessions obtained from the
Turkish government by Minister
Leishman, as reported in press dis
patches from COnstantinople. The
Turkish government has up to this
point declined to recognize American
medical diplomas, or even those is
sued to graduates from American in
situations in Turkey, a fact which
naturally greatly diminished their use
fulness.
A more important concession from
a humanitarian point is that respect
ing the wives and children of natural
lied Armenians. The Turkish govern
ment has heretofore held that the wife
of Turkish citizen who is naturalized
in America does not by that act e.
come herself an American. Interna-
tiOnal law admits the rights of the
woman to share the condition Of her
husband, and while our government
has not set up the claim that under
cur laws the wife becomes naturalized
by the husbands act, yet it has con-
tended that under the principle of in
ternatiOnal law above referred to the
TUrEi.h government was not justified
in OBTAINING these women in Turkey
Tie undertaking to recognize the
American educational, charitable and
religious establishments will, it is
said, greatly enlarge their usefulness
and add much to their security, for
, there will hereafter be no question of
their right to claim full military pro-
tectiCn from the Turkish government
il they are threatened i'll times Of riot.

WATCHED WITH JEALOUS EYE.
Development Of American Trade in
British Colonies.

New York, March 1G.-The develop
ment Of American trade in the British
colonies is watched with jealous eye
by many people in this country, says
q London dispatch to the Tribune.
Complaints are raised that the Amer
leans have Of late mOnOpOliZ2d the
markets of Malta for flour and oil to
the disadvantage of British trade.
Formerly these articles reached Malta
from London, Liverpool and Hull, but
the cheaper prices quoted from New
York have ousted the British goods.
This result is attributed to the direct
steamship service inaugurated last
year.
The outlook in connection with the
Canadian trade is all engrossing sub
jcct of discussion in Bristol. At an
early date the Canadian Pacific rail-
way will, it is stated, open a branch
office there and it is understood that
the Grand Trunk line will follow suit,
so that the port will soon be receiving
attention to an unprecedented degree
from two rival organizations of far
reaching influence.

received President Francis of the ST.

The emperor treated Mr.. Francis with
great distinction. He received him
privately, not even Ambassador Tow

nor any member of the imperial house

asked many questions about the ex-
position and was specially interested
in the international congress of arbi-

marked that eXpOsitions did as much
for the interests of a better under
standing between one country and an
other than years of diplomacy.
The conversation travelled to many
subjects and lasted fifty minutes.

clean, N. Y, March 11-Fifteen
number of people were burned or
bruised by an explosion of oil follow
ing a wreck on the Erie railroad
north of this city. Owing to the fact
that some OF the bodies were inciner-
ated in the fierce flames or blown into
the creek by the terrific explosion the
exact number of dead will probably
number of injured, too, is uncertain,
as large number of them were able
to reach their homes and received
treatment there.
The scenes following the explosion
will never be forgotten by those who
saw them. 1t was about 9 o'clock in
the evening when the train was
wrecked. An Erie freight train, west
bound, broke in two on the hill two
miles north of the city. At first the
forward part of the train, released of
all the weight of the cars behind, shot
forward with increased speed. Brakes
were applied and the front portion of
the train was brought to a standstill
at the iron bridge across Clean creek.
The rear cars, gathering momentum
as they came down the hill, crashed
into the forward part of the train.
Lost of the cars in the train were tank
cars filled with refined oil or gasoline.
They weighed thousands of tons and
the impact was terrific. One OF the
tank cars caught fire soon after the
collision. The exact cause of the fire
is not known, but it is supposed to
