LONp0N SURPRISED.
England Hs Taken No Part IN steps
for Mediation.

London, lnne 30.-The news from
|Washington that steps were believed
to have ben taken looking to media

eminent na only has taken no part in

would be Asstssis ere role Of arr

use all itslnffuence to urge the bellig-

able medistor There seems to be no
reason for thinking that the govern
mert would not fill that role suitably,
but Russian opinion Is always a rather
unknown actor
From the highest official sources here
and from the Japanese legation comes
the positive statement that nothing
whatever has resulted from the inter-
views between King Edward and EYn-
peror William at Keil that In any way
was connected with the Russo-Japan-
.ese war. There seems to be no doubt
that responsible ministers seriously
warned King Edward that he must not
Initiate any step In that direction with
his imperial nephew
The Japanese legation, II appears,
made discreet inquiries as to whether
or not this advice was carried out and
Ut was stated here tonight that there
was every reason to believe the war
was not discussed at Klel. except In the
most informal conversational way.
. It was pointed out also that the Jap
anese legation, which was entirely ig-
norant ofany news concerning move
ment toward mediation, that the pres
ert moment would be the most oppor-
tune, so far as Japan Is concerned, for
any such step. Japan, 1t was MAIN

PRESSURE on THE PORTE.
Brought By Great Britain in Favor of
Armenians. .-r- -

London, June So-Great Britain has
successfully brought pressure to bear
on the porte for the relief of the perse-
cuted Armenians, according to state-
ments in a letter written by Foreign
Secretary Lansdowne to the Anglo-Ar-
menian association. The letter says
that Sir Nicholas O'Conor, the British
ambassador at Constantinople in a
long interview with the grand vizier on
June IA pointed out to that official the
responsibility Of the porte should the
reports Of Kurdish outrages prove true.
The ambassador called the attention
of the grand vizier to the design which
had been accredited to the Turkish au-
thorities of driving the Armenians from
their mountain homes to the plains, and
urged that orders should be sent to the
Vail of Bitlis that refugees be allowed
to return to their homes and be given
protection from the Kurds.
The grand vizier acquiesced in the
wishes of the ambassador and tele-
graphed orders to that effect in his
presence. The British vice-consul at
Bitlis was notified Of the grand vizier's
action, and was instructed to report its
effect.
Lord LansdoWne said that the porte
had also granted permission for a Brit
ish officer to accompany any troops en-
gagged in expeditions against the insur-
gents.

Who will they nominate after they
have beaten Parker Z he asked.
Would it be Cleveland9' he con
tinued. why, there is more than a
third Of the convention that will stay
here until the election before allowing
the nomination Of Cleveland. An at
tempt to nominate Cleveland will
throw the convention into the handsof
Bryan. The convention will nominate
Parker because they have noother man
to nominate.
Senator Dubois declares that he will
force an anti-poligany plank into the
national platform. That will be his
principal work while In st. Louis. He
says that the republicans feared that
they would lose Utah, Idaho and Wyo-
ming If they declared against polyg-
amy, but he claims that q strong dec
laration Of that kind IN the democratic
platform will carry these states for the
democratic party.
