developed to-day that the choieefam from
Minister Leishman at Constantihople.
transmitted late last night 70 ltesaue'i.
& Roosevelt. contained, III addition 70 q
statement Of the incorrectness OF tho an
noinced assassination of Vice-Consul Ma
veisscn. at Beirut, an important report
upon tile situation IN the Ottoman EN-
miro. Minister Leslnun takes q ferrous
view OF the condition of affairs IN Iur-
4 KEY. Pra ctlcallyr the entire dominion OF
tho Sultan Is III a state Of unrest, and ~
some parts the existing turbulence IS
equivalent to insurrection.
Minister l.eshman apprehends serious
trouble, and Indicates his belief thnt
American interests and American lives
arc in peril on account Of the fanuticlsn
or the Mussulman population.
The minister's report confirmed nfor-
nation received by President Roosevelt
an6 Secretary Hay from unofficial sources.
For these reasons it was decided by the
President that Admiral Cotton s. squadron
should proceed to Turkish waters, in ac-
cordance with his original orders, not
withstanding the inaccuracy Of the report
OF the assault on Consul Magelssen. In
any event. that was regarded by this, gov
eminent only as an incident. The fact
that the assault upon the consul was not
attended by q fatal result simply modi-
iies the action OF the United States by
removing one serious phase of sit,Iatian
that otherwise may. become intolerable
very soon.,,I )"
1t has not been decided definitely wheth-
err or not Admiral Cotton'S squadron Will
rendezvous at Beirut, as originally or
dGred. The destination of the vessels viii
be determined by the development of the
Turkish situation.
