LElSHMAN TELLS
TURKISH SULTAN HE
MUST KEEP FAITH
American Minister Puts Hanic
in a Hole on the Schools
Question.

Constaninople, April 23.-Ambassa-
dor Leishman has made a new move
in the American schools question, in
which he has placed the porte in the
awkward position Of appearing TO
thwart the will of the sultan. In his
last communication to the foreign Office
the ambassador pointedly called attens
tion to- the fact that notwithstanding
the formal promises and pledges of his
majesty that a satisfactory settlement
OF the schools question would be ar
ranged, the porte has utterly failed to
carry out the imperial assurances.
The action OF Leishman in thus hold
ing the porte responsible, for the delay
Is regarded in diplomatic circles hers
as very adroit.
Even Turkish circles admit it places
the government in an unenviable light
as seeming to oppose the execution Of
the sultan's promises.

New York, April 24.--Benedict Gim-

chant who cut his throat and wrists
with broken glass in Hoboken, soon
after being arrested, died early to-

by two detectives, who acted on COM
plant Of the boys parents.
Gimbel according to the detectives,
resorted to an attempt at bribery and
offered the detectives $4,000 IL they
would release him.
The detectives apparently consented
and, demanding cash, were driven with
Gimbel to his bankers office here, and
given the $4,000.
Then they informed Gimbel that an
additional charge Of attempted bribery
would be placed against him, and they
took him to the district attorneys Of
a fee, where 1t is alleged. Gimbel Of
fered Assistant District Attorney Kro-
tel, any amount Of money to gain his
release.
Found Nearly Dead.
Later Gimbel was released in heavy
bail and started, ostensibly, for his
home in Philadelphia.
He never reached there. Instead he
went to the PalGce hotel in Hoboken,
and there, with Jagged glass obtained
from a water pitcher which he broke,
he cut his throat in many places and
gashed his left wrist.
He was discovered several hours af-
terwards, almost dead from loss OF
