Now that matters geeyj to be quieting down again In Constantantinople and in the Asiatic provinces, pedple gre beginning to form estimates of the amount of damage done and the number of lives lost during the recent disturbances. Wel!-informed Armenians astimate the lofses th: events which have just taken p' atolia alone at sen. ounl boo and t of victims at 40,000. Of coutse, these menian estimates, but there sc reason for believing that the property de- stroyed, the number of lives sacrificed and the terrible outrages committed, are far beyond anything hitherto estimated or de- scribed. “CHINESE.

The Secretary of the Navy has approved the recommendation of the Walker board that the ram points of the new battleships be placed nine feet below the water line.

The groom and his best man, Mr. Perry Johnson, his youngest brother, awaited their coming at the bower, where also stood Cardinal Gib- bons, who performed the ceremony, the groom being a Catholic. The bride, who is a charmingly attractive young lady, was elegantly gowned in white satin and point lace. The bodice was almost entirely covered with the lace.

To the or of The Evening Star: I seem to be one of many who have cause for complaint against the delay In the pres- ent delivery of mail matter in the city. I ‘reside not a thousand miles from 9th and S strects, and this morning I received a letter the local postmark on which shows that it was received at the city post office at noon ; yesterday from the north, Yet this letter was not delivered at my residence 1.8 o'clock this morning. I do not wish to criticise the present city postmaster further than to state that under the management of his prede- cessor letters received here at noon and even an hour or two later were delivered at my residence the same 2fternooa. This delay has been my experlence and I doubt not the experience of my nelghbors during the past several weeks. YZ —S The Winged Arrow. A meeting of the press committee of the C. A. C. carnival was held in the club library yesterday afternoon, W. B. Hibbs tn the chair.

Climbing a lamp post without a ladder was the charge against a poorly dressed man named John Angel, who appeared as a prisoner in Judge Kimball's court today. John was under the influence of liquor last night, ard at 14th street and Maryland averve northeast ke climbed a tamp post and vainly endeavcred to light his pipe. He did succeed, ‘however, in extinguishing the light and Policeman Bradicy arrested him. “Ard on the way to the box,” said the offic he imagined he saw spooks and snakes vas very much frightened.” “If he continues to drink iquor,” sald the judge, “the wiil see snakes. Bathiff Kendig told tke court that the man is an ex-inmate of the Insane Asylum, and he considered him dangerous, “I've been working in the country,” seta the prisoner, “and yesterday I came in to buy a pair of shoes, and on my way home I took a drink, but I hope you will excuse me this time. “Can't excuse this kind of conduct,” said the court, and a fine of $1 was imposed. ee An Exciting Ranaway. There was an exciting scene on F street today about noon, when a horse attached to a wagon belonging to W. B. Moses ran away. As Is the usual custom, at ndon their horses are unbridled and given lunch, but today the horse attached to wagon No. 14 took fright and dashed up F street without doing any damage. When it reached 15th street, the hcrse turned the corner as if it had a driver, missing a cable car by an inch. Joseph Burley, a white boy, seeing the animal coming, made a leap and caught the reins, and it was all over. It is a great miracle that no one was hurt, as F street was crowded at the time.

The case was given to the jury about 4 o'clock, after arguments by James Matthews, state's attorney, and Sydney Mudd for the defense. ‘The station at Port Tobacco was burned to the ground Monday night. A quantity of freight was destroyed. The fire is sup- posed to have been accidental. The body of an unknown white man was found floating in Port Tobacco creek yes- terday and was towed to Chapel Point wharf, where Justice of the Peace P. W. Robey and a jury will hold an inque: ‘A freight wreck vecurred on the Baltl- more and Ohio railroad yesterday near Singerly. John M.

Over 250 turkeys, weighing 2,800 pounds, will be served up, with four or five barrels of cranberry sauce and other “fixing,” to the 2,300 people who dwell within that haven for the weary minded. Of these, less than 1,800 are patients, and the rest are physicians, rurses, attendants and employes of various kinds. The day is enjoyed by the patients almost without ex- ception. Dr. Godding says it is rarely that the reason {s so unseated that Thanksgiv- ing, with its turkey and cranberry sauce, cannot be appreciated. In the evening there will be music and dancing. —. LANGERMAN FOUND GUILTY. A Book Canvasser Charged Him With Axsault. The jury in the case of Walter L. S. Lan- german, who was charged with a criminal assault on Barbera Aub, brought in a ver- dict of guilty in New York yesterday af- terncon. Langerman, who stood up while the verdict was being announced, turned deathly pale and clung to the railing in front of him. He would have fallen to the floor but for his lawyer, who helped him to a chair. Langerman was remanded till Friday for sentence. In the meantime his lawyers will try every means to get him out of his pre- dicament. The extre me penalty of the of- fense is twenty years’ imprisonment. The trial has heen fn progress since No- vember 22, and has attracted considerable attention. Last May, while a canvasser for a firm that publishes religious books, Mrs. Roselle, an old school friend, sent her ta Langerman, with a note, asking him to buy @ book of Miss Aub. Miss Aub told how Langerman had sub- scribed for the book, after which Langer: man kissed her, and In return she slapped his face. Then she said he grabbed her around the wals’, and, dragging her into his room, assaulted her. The defendant alleged that she made no objection to his famillarities, and testimony was introduced to show that no cry was heard coming from Langerman’s room, al- though the windows were open. ———+e-____ Thanksgiving at Mt.
