WITH THE MOSlEMS
He States That There Was Ri
oting and Shooting on Every
Side, Armenians Firing on

Constantinople, May L. Stephen
Trowbridge, OF American board Of COM
missioners for foreign delations, who
was the only American or European
in Adana to witness the killing OF his
fellow missionaries, at Rogers and
HApry Maurer, has supplied an account
cYthe rioting to the grand vizier and
the mission board. In part he says:
Firing began on April ii between
Armenfans and Moslems. BY nightfall
incendiaries were at y6fk and several
districts Of the city Mere blazing. The
smoke rolled over/thc country where
vineyards and country houses were
burning. Moslems and Armenians
sheltered themselves In houses and d.
rected steady fire at each other.
"The next morning the conflagration
spread to such an extent that we began
to fear for the school. All the streets
were deserted but the firing continued.
We spent the morning In nipping OF
projecting woodwork and porch posts.
All the time there was neither police
men nor soldiers to stop the riots.
Mr.. Maurer, who had been carrying
water, helped me with a crobar and
we threw down a wall nearest the FIRE.
We repeatedly begged some young Ar
menians who were skulking In the
neighborhood to assist us but they ap-
parently, were afraid to show them
selves
DR.. Trowbridge's statement then con-
tinued with the efforts to protect Am
ericans. He said:
The danger that was impressed up
on our minds was not the loss OF tho
buildings but the perlious position OF
our American friends. the hundreds of
Christian refugees and eighty school
girls would find themselves in, in case
they were burned.
There was rioting and shouting now
on every side. Mr.. Rogers came from
Miss Wallace's school across the street
and began to carry water. We had
worked for considerable time without
being molested when the Aremnians at
one end Of the street began firing upon
the looters in the houses. Two shots
rang out simultaneously and Mr.. Rog-
ers, who was in the street with pail
of water in his hand fell. He cried out
to me that he was shot. The next in
stant Mr.. Maurer was struck near the
heart by bullet

somewhere ...etween $2.100,O00 and
$2.3O0.000 to pay for the 2.1OO. 900 bush
els Of wheat delivered to the Bartlett
Patten House half an hour before the
opening, today. 1t is estimated that
the average price OF the big Patten
line of wheat was around $1.O5, possi-
bly, as high as $1.1O.
The deliveries this morning were not
larger than expected and not as large
as frequently occur on May contracts,
but it makes great difference wheth.
er wheat is taken and paid for at about
so cents q bushel. or at an average
price Of about $1.1O. This big quanti-
ty OF wheat was delivered to Bartlett
Patten Company by the Armour Grain
company, Peavy, Hulburd-Warren I.o-
witz and Company and others. 1t was
mostly wheat Of the hard variety as
the No. 2 red wheat Is a scarce article
and commands a premium of 1Sc to
zoe over the May price and naturally
would not be delivered on contract.
This is only the start Of the delivery
on May contracts and more wheat can
be passed around by those who have
1t to deliver any morning or afternoon
during the month. It Is known that
1,00O,00 bushels, possibly 2.0O0. 900 or
5000. 900 bushels Of Duluth wheat are
held in readiness to come to Chicago
for delivery providing 1t 10 more prof
liable to bring it here than to sell 1t
to millers and eastern consumers dur
ing the month.

CLARK On TARIFF
Says Payne Schedule Is as
Bad as Anything That
Could Be Cohcefved.
IT MAKES 9efEs HIGHER

Washington, May 1.-When asked
what he thought of the tariff substitute
on the maximum and minimum rate
Representative Champ Clark said to-
day:
The Payne maximum and minimum
rate is about as bad as anything that
could be conceived, but the substitute
offered by Senator Aldrich is much
worse. It is direct slap at the COM
mercial nations of the world. The ef-
feet of it will be to make the tariff
rates at least 25 per cent. higher than
in the Dingley act. It is not revis-
ion Of the tariff downward as promised
by the Republicans"

A southern banker gave his young
S., and instead Of spending it the
boy handed it back to his father to de-
posit for him in order that he might
draw the interest. A few days later,
however, the youDgster saw something
he wanted more than he did the inter
est, so asked his father to please re-
turn the money.
This the banker refused to do, ex-
planning that the son had no note for
the money and unless he could prove
In black and white that the money
had been handed him the SIS was his.
The youthful inancier looked both
puzzled and unhappy. Then his coun-
tenance cleared. He called the colored
butler.
"John, did you see me give father
SIS the other dayT
He was answered in the affirmative.
Then he put the same question to his
grandmother.

The Wrong Line.

Two telephone girls were talking
over the wire one afternoon. The sub
ject Of the conversation was a lawn
party which was to take place the next
day. Both were discussing what they
should wear and after five minutes
had come to no decision. In the midst
Of this important conversation a mas
culine voice interrupted, asking hum
bly, what number he had. The lack of
any reply did not squelch the inquirer,
for he asked again for the number.
One Of the girls became indignant and
scornfully asked:

sure; but, judging from what l have
heard, I should say I was on a clothes

was In the habit Of sending his son
out with a small trap to deliver or
ders. The lad was a careless driver,
and n day he knocked down an old
lady. The inevitable lawsuit followed,
and the butcher had to pay heavy
damages.
Shortly after this the son was the
cause Of another accident, which had
a similar unfortunate result, and the
drain on the butchers resources
brought him to the verge Of ruin.
