1mercm Consul Says 4nother
armenian Massacre Is Expected.

Washfn.ston. Sept. THE American Consul at
Harpoot has reported 10 the State Department
that he has visited Bits and Is now in Moush.
lie says that the Governor General of Moush
paid him a visit ca his arrival and offered him
am escort to visit the Sasun Mountains
The consul states that the district OF Sasun IS
tranquil and the strategic points are garrisoued
ny infantry detachments and permanent bar
racks. The survivors of the massacre are in
destitute condition. but are attempting 70 re-
build their burned villages with little gov
ernment aid. The consular corps at Bitlis estt-
mates that $500 have been nassacred or have
died from exposure and hunger. The American
colony at Bitlis does not appear In be in danger
In the AIoush district insurgents have adopted
a guerilla form of warfare, and arc ambuScadinS
the Kurds. They demand certain reforms which
chiefly concern matters of local administration
and economic questions not involving the ~
tcgrity of the empire. \ number of villages
have been plundered and burned and many per-
sons killed and matreated. Another massacre
is daily expected by the Armenian population,
which is i'll destitute circumstances. About
fifteen thousand have lost everything and are
starving. many being ill and wounded Small
contributions toward their relief have been re-
Ceived through the American Board of Commits
sioners for Foreign Missions at Bitlis, but much
more is urgently needed. the conditions being
similar to those in Macedonia last year.

TO CONTRIBUTE FOR WINTER TRACKS
Poolroom Syndicates Plan to Keep Them
Going and Keep Open.

There has been considerable talk for some weeks
that after the local racing season ended the pool
rooms here would have 10 close because there
would be no thoroughbred racing this year on
what are known as the winter tracks. One OF the
winter tracks is New-Orleans. and two others are
Ingieside and Oakland
It has been alleged that winter racing was largely
maintained by money contributed to these glorious
contests for improving the breed OF thorough
breds" by poolroom men. as these contributions
were likely be practically nothing this year, on
account OF the war that has been waged IN various
parts OF the country against poolselers.. u WaS
thought that there was little Likelihood OF winter
racing this year -, - -
II Vas learned from trustworthy source yes
terday that the poolroom men would lose more oy
the abandonment of winter racing than the racing
associations which hold winter meets, and tnat IN
yievy OF that the winter game viii undoubtedly go
on this year just merrily as II has IN the iast
