Der of his Official family as secretary
Of the navy. Mr.. Morton has the mat
ter under consideration. and has not

canal commission, but refused it. Mr..
| Morton is the son of the late J. Ster.

SLAUGHTERED BY THE TURKS,
Armenian Men, Women and Children
Are Killed.

Plovdiv, June 22.-Advices from a
reliable sourc say that the foreign
consuls in Armenia know definitely OF
the indiscriminate slaughter by Turks
of $500 Armenian men, women and
children. In two districts of Sussun
where these wholesale murders took
place thirty-ive villages were RACED to
the ground by cannon fire. The i'll.
fated communities were situated in the
mountains. Guns were carried upon
the backs of mules. During the bonn.
bardment the mountains were sur
rounded by four battalions of infantry
to prevent anybody from escaping.
After the firing had lasted several
hours the survivors were permitted to
leave and move to the plains. Four
thousand refugees, entirely destitute,
have arrived at Mush. The foreign
ministers here realize the uselessness
of verbal protests. Nothing car be
done because Russia desires the mat.
ter to rest. With the exception of a
few politicians in England and France,
Europe seems not to care what hap
pens to Armenia.
