UNITED STATES CONSUL DAVIES
AT ALExANDRETTA, TURKEY,
LEAVES HIS POST.
Assault TED BY THE POLICE
INTERCEPTED AND iNsULTED AS
HE is ACCOMPANYING A GIT.
ZEN TO q VESSEL

ConStantinOple, Dec 9.-The United
States flag over the consulate at Alex
andretta, Asiatic Turkey, has been
hauled down and Consul Davies has
left his post for Beirut in conse~
quence of serious diplomatic Incl
dent during which Mr.. Davies was in
suited and assaulted by the local DO
nee. The affair grew out of the arrest
OF an Armenian named Ohannes At
tarlan, naturaliZed American citizen.
Attarian had been in prison at Aleu-
Pc during the last two months and
mad just been liberated through the
intervention Of the American consular
agent on condition of his leaving the
country forthwith. Mr. Davies was
accompanying Attarian on board a de-
parting steamer when the police in
sercepted the party, assaulted and in
suited Mr.. Davies and, despite the re-
slstance OF the consul and his attend
ant guards, rearrested Attariar and
TOOK him back to prison. Mr.. Davies
immediately lowered the flag over the
consulate and formally broke off rela-
uons with the Turkish authorities by
quitting AleXandretta, leaving the
consulate in charge of the vice CONSUL
A mob Of Moslems seized on the occa--
sion to make a hostile demonstration
against the consulate and against the
Christians generally.
Story Of Local Authorities.
The local authorities assert that MIR.
Davies struck the police with a cane
and that after the rearrest of Attarian
the consular cavasses military cou-
IerS) attempted to rescue him and
that in the fracaS which ensued the
cavasses broke the windows of the
prison. The Turkish authorities fur
Their claim that Attarian, who is a
native OF Diarbekir, Asiatic Turkey,
has been travelling about the country
with an illegal passport. They also
point out that the question of Arme-
mans naturalized in America returning
to Turkey has always been source
OF trouble, since the porte invariably
refuses to recognize naturalization
When Attarian was arrested $4,000
was found in his pocket. This, it lis
believed. may have contributed to his
arrest, the Turks suspecting him of
being a revOlutlonist The matter lis
engaging the energetic attention of
the United States legation here. Min
lister Leishman has made urgent rep
reservations to the porte and is now
awaiting a fuller report before taking
further steps.
The outrage, it is anticipated here,
will lead to strong action On the part
of the United States to obtain full
reparation. especially as full satisfac-
ton for the Beirut affair has neut yet
been given.
