NEW oUTRAGES REPORT

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-InfOr- nation that Turkish atrocities up- on Armenans are more severe than ever has led the State Department to consider making new representations to the Porte. No reply has been received to representations for the same purpose by the United States more than a month ago.

NORFOLK, Aug. 9. - Inbound steamers report that never before has such a sight been presented as that now seen on the Atlantic coast from three to four miles out side the Virginia Capes. Eleven large warships of the Allies arc cruising up and down the course which is over eight miles long by possible two miles wide. Black smoke is pouring from the tunnels of the ships, two of which have four tunnels and are believed to be French warships and the propellorS are turning over with all possible speed. On the decks of the boats and in the lookouts are men with glasses scanning the water in all directions. The cruisers have form ed ill battle array in such a man. ner that no submarine could come to the water within a distance of five miles and not be seen. While no word has been secured from the cruisers it leaked out by wireless reports that men are at their guns ready to fire on any object that resembles a submarine.
