It was only last week that portion of the ceiling fell breaking the warden's chair. Fortunately the warden was out at the time.

MIR OSCAR STRAUs CoERcEp THE
 SULTAN.

The story of how Mir. oscar s. Straus. the new secretary of commerce and labor. dealt with the sultan of Turkey in the matter of the claims made by the United States government for the destruction of American mis- sion property during the Armenian massacres. is told by Charles Johnston in Harper's Weekly. "The American claims were not great. They boiled down to S9O. 900. All the other nations had far larger claims. but they could or would do nothing. So MT. StrauS went to his colleagues and asked whether they would join in protest. or at least back him up if he made a move. They finally agreed. and. after convincing the Vizier of the justice of our claims, got an audience with the sultan. Mir Straus said to the sultan in effect: Your majesty. my claims are as follows: and I am fully per suaded of their accuracy and justice. Never theless, t is possible to make mistakes. so I will make this proposal
 Either Turkey shall admit our claims and pay us the indemnity we demand. or submit the whole matter to arbitra- tion.' To submit 70 arbitration would have been to raise before an impartial tribunal the whole question of the com
 plicity of the Yildiz Kiosk in the Ar menian massacres. and that was not quite what the sultan wished. so thc American claims were admitted and the sultan promised to pay them Months elapsed. MT. Straus got an- other audience and another promise, but no payment. Months again elapsed. There was third audience and third promise. but still no payment. At this point MT. Straus thought it best to TO- turn to Washington to push the other end of the affair The matter was taken up with the Turkish minister here. and it was pointed out that the relations between Turkey and the United States were greatly strained. and that it was probable that they would have to be broken. This meant, of course. that the Turkish minister would be recalled. and he saw the force of the argument. Shortly after the matter was settled"
