summary of its contents. AS stated
in the press dispatches. it showed that
Mr.. Magelssen had been shot at by

mini Nter's dispatch also said that Con-
SUI Ravndal had reported TO him that
some OF the foreign consuls located at
Beirut had reported to their govern
ments that the situation at that place
had become exceedingly unsafe; that
this condition Of affairs had existed
for some time, and that something
ought to be done to relieve the ten-
sion. The opinion was expressed that
the attempted assassination of Magels-
sen probably would bring matters to
a focus. the attention of the Turkish
government being drawn to the matter

would be made to avoid further trou-

Demonstrations Necessary.
The latest development in the Turk

circles, where the view was held that
the denial of the report of the killing
Of Mr.. Magelssen relieves the situation
of its immediate awkward and embar-
RAISING feature, but will not prevent
our naval vessels continuing to the
east. Minister Leishman, in one of the
dispatches to the department suggest
ed that conditions were such that il
might be well to have some American
naval demonstration In those waters.
Reports also have come to the govern

Boston, Aug. 2s.-Letters have been
received here from Monastir indicating
that the attack upon Vice Consul Ma
gelssen Just fifteen days after the as
sassination Of the Russian consul, NJ.

disappearing people there. For a Ions
time it has been understood that the
native proprietors, feeling that their in
vestments were insecure under Turkish
rule, have been working to secure for

of a plot involving the assassination OF
consults have been frequently heard. In
fact. reports had become so well
grounded that the cOnsults had con-
sidered the advisabhity of asking their
governments for national guards, but
bad delayed taking definite action.
