! b “FLYERS FOR THE OMAHA MEET | Beoretary Tuthill Arranging for the Attend- anos of Some Splendid Strings, VEDETTE AND SHAMROCK ARE ENTERED A Williams of 8t. Louis Will Bring the Best of His Stables to the Grounds— Other Tntorests Aro to e Ropresented, . J. A. Tuthill, secretary of the Omaha Jockey club, has just roturned from a suc- cesful trip i the way of enlisting running horses for the meet which is to take place July 4, 5 and 6 under the auspices of the club. At St. Joseph, Mr. Tuthill met A. Williams, the St. Louis stock-broeder, whose big farm at Idgar, Neb, where he formerly sided, is onc of the bust known in the country. Mr, Williams expressed himself belng desirous of entering some of his horses in the first meet with which Mr. Tuthill was connected, and when ho ‘was informed that there was to be a good meet here in July he didn't do a thing but agree to come here with Vedette, the horse who ran ahead in the mile-anden-cighth run in _ Chicago, making the last mile of it in 1:41l; Shamrock, with his five-eighths record of 1:01} made at Gothenburg; Minora, the horse that went a milo flat in 1:43; Patience Templeton, with a threo-quarter record of 1:16; Lysander, who . won four handicaps in Kansas City, making the three-quarters in 1:17)¢, the fastest time sver made on the Kansas City track: Dan Farrell, the winner of three races at St. Louis; J G I, a St. winner, who has run in eleven secconds this year, and several rapid 2-year-olds, ull of which have taken place. R ‘Threo other Kansas City and St. Louis stables will also be heve, and it looks as if there would be a race for every good horse that will come. Mr. Tuthill says that Nebraska and Towa- bred horses have run faster than they are running at Kansas City and St. Joseph, and that they stand a good show to carry off the laurels and otner things at the coming mcet, which will be one of the best of the season. In connection with the running meet, it may benoted thut the Fourth of July cele- bration is to take place at the fair grounds, and it is the purpose of the management to combine a new fangled running meet with an old-fashioned celebration, Latonia Conditions Perfeot.

He promptly pulled the box at Fifteenth and Douglas streets and the fire was extinguished before it had made much progress in the building. « The store is occupied by the Beyer Por- trait company a.:d the principal damage was to their stock which was partially soaked with water. They had a quantity of fin- ished work on hand most of which was ruined. The fire originated in the back room, which was used as a finishing room, and it is supposed that the combustion of chemicals was the cause of the blaze. The building, which is the property of Mrs. M. O. Maul, was damaged to the extent of 2200, The loss of the Beyer company was estimated at about &00. Th erokee Bonds. Fort Ginsox.

He was accompanied by Dr. O'Gorman of Washington. Immediately upon thoir ar- rival in Omaha they were escorted totho episcopal residonce, where they are the guests of Bishop Scannell Tt is stated somewhat authoritatively that the visit of Mgr. Satolli at the present time is significant. Onco before he planned a visit here, but abandoned it. Bishop Bona- cum’s trouble at Lincoln will doubtless be discussed, as a number of Lincoln. priests arrived in the city yestérday. Mgr. Satolli rofused to speak on the matter yesterday. The papal delegate leaves for St. Paul to- morrow night. Satolll 1s Retloent, Mgr. Satolli dislikes notoriety. He also has an aversion to talking to reporters, A press badge, to him, is a signal for rigid reti- cence. In addition to this he pleads a lack of proficiency in the use of the English lan- guage. Dr. O'Gorman therefore faces most Teporters who seck the distinguished papal delegate, and acts as interpreter. Mgr. Satolli and Dr. O'Gorman wero inter- viewed by a BEr reporter yesterday. The following is the result of the interview, after a vigorous application of tho reportorial pump: “What action will bo taken in the case of Bishop Bonacum?” asked the reporter. “My dear sir. we really can’t express any opinion in regard to that matter, as you must understand. The case is still in such shape that for anyone to express an_opinion on either side of the question would be an injustico to all parties concerned.” “What have you to say regarding the ex- pressions of Kather Thomas Sherman when hy in Omaha recently?™ hat is & matter that, while it might have created very much of a sensation here, attracted no attention in the east and has been given no consideration by the delegate.” “You will go to St. Paul next, it is under- stood, and see Archbishop Irelana?" “Why. yes, we £o to St. Paul from here, :)ut not particularly to see Archbishop Ire- ana.’ “Will this country be glven another car- dinal, and will it be Archbishop Ireland?" “My dear sir, there 1s only one power on earth that is authority on that matter, and that is His Holiness. Yes, Archbishop Ire- land stands as good a show as any other man for the reception of the red hat, so far as I know—but, as I told you, oulyone person dictates these things,” Concerning the Schnols, Bishon Scannell interposed with one or two statements, as follows: “‘Only today the delegate received o letter from the pope concerning the school question. In his encyclical, addressed through Cardinal Gibbons, the substance of which you had in Tme Bee several days ago, the pope sustains Archbishop Ire- land in the stand taken byhim, and this will doubtless put a quietus to the school question for some time at least, so far as the chuech is concerned. “The papal deles hospital today and ¢ Mgr. United 8 te visited St. Joseph's fter seeing the institu- tion, spoke in high terms of Mr. Creighton's generosity,” continued the bishop. “Ho presided at the commencement exercises at tho academy of the Sacred Heart on Burt swreet, and may, possibly, ofticiate in a_sim- ilar manner at the exercises to be held at the St. Mary’s avenue convent today." Only One Man Can Tell. *‘How about the situation in Europe? Do you think the pope will interfere, Dr. O'Gorman? It is understood that he' pro- poses to do so in order to effect the disarma- ment of the betigerently inclined countries, if possible,” queried the reporter, as he turned to Dr. O'Gorman. “My dear sir, only one man can_ tell you what action the pope will take in that mat- ter,” replied Dr. O'Gorman, *‘that man is in Rome. Europe has been ready for war and has been reported as about ready to begin operations every week or so for the last ten years. The cloud keeps hovering, but it doesn't settle anywhere. When and where it will do so is a matter that is purely prob- lematical.” While Mgr. Satolli and Dr. O'Gorman are extremely reticent on the subject that doubt- less occasioned their visit to Omaha, Tug BEE has obtained from other sources, as much as possible, a detailed statementof tho Bonacum affair. Mgr. Satolli will not go to Lincoln. Lincoln priests came to him and the matter will be heard here. History of the Trouble. Rumors of trials and investigation of the trounle have been current for months, Early in the year, and as late as April 15, report had it that Mgr. Satolli, the Catholic supreme judge in tho United States, in- tended visiting Lincoln or Omaha for the purpose of personally hearing and settling the difficulty. Theso rumors finally crystal- nized into facts. Some timoe ago instructions were sont by Mgr. Satolli to Bishop Bona- cum that testimony be taken in the matiers complained of and forwarded to the Monsig- nor. At the same timo Bishop Scannell of Omaha was requested to hear and report the testimony of the parties to the controversy and forward 1t to headquarters, ‘The hearing beforo Bishop Scannell was quietly had several weeks ago in Omaha. All varties to the controversy met in Lincoln at that time. As originally filed, the charges against Bishop Bonacum were signed by & large nuin- ber of pricsts, “Several names wera sub- sequently withdrawn, and when the dual hearing was had only’ four names were at tached. Theso were Fathers Corhoty, Kup- penberg, Crowley and Murphy. Charges Preferrod, The charges against the bishop were, in substunce: Disobedience to orders, incom- petency, tyranny and violation of the Balti- more ecrees. The brunt of the contest between the priests and the bishop has been borne by Father Corbett of Palmyra. His relations with his superior have been strained for soeveral years. During the campaign of 1800 Father Cor- bett was an active supporter of the cause of the furmers allian His activity becamo offensive to Cathol in other parts of tho state and complaints were made to the bishop. Charges of a more serious nature were made against him, which the bishop could not ignore. An ecclesiastical trial was had and the case submilted to Bishop Scannell of Omaha for review., The latter annulled the findings, owing to irregularities in the conduct of the case. In this trial the bishop is suid to have acted us a prosecutor rather than as judge, and his conduct sowed the seeds of discord. It was the beginuing of the trouble. Around it gathered the complumts and alleged wrongs intlicted on other priests, until they became of sufticient number and seriousness to justify an appeal to Mgr. Satolli. Ou these chargos testimony was taken in Omaha and Lincoln during the past two woeks. A serious phase of the controversy, and one which imperils the bishop's side, is said to bea violation of orders received from Mgs. Satolli. 1o his instructions to Bishop um regarding the taking of testimony, Satolli enjoined strict impartiality, and no punishment should be inflicted on vriests during the pendency of the case. Notwithstanding these explicit orders, Father Corbett was suspended by the bishop last Thursday, The priest's counsel, Father Phelan of St. Louis, knowing the orders of the pope's representative, advised the priest to ignore the suspensioa and continue per- forming his duties. Particulurs of the bishop's action were wired to Mgr, Satolli. Auother Factor, Another factor in the controversy, but one which is not directly involvea in the present investigation or triul, is the sus- pension of Father Walsh at Lincoln a few yeurs ago. When Bishop Bounacum took charge of the new diocese of Liucoln he brought Father Walsh from St. Louis and made him pastor of the cathedral, Although in this position a priest is subject o rewoval at the will of the bishapl while pastors of other churches aro 'irféthovable except for cause, the pesition 1w seurded with much favor, and appointment-te it is considered a promotion. Tt is a2rewhrd and is rarely given to a priest from-anothor diocese The coming of Father Walsh and tho favors shown him did not tend.to strengthen the bishop in the affections rof his clergy. The latter had struggled and unmmlvlnh\m!l{ had borne the hardships of pioneer life and did not relish the profimiénce given one who Was o stranger 10 thoalisteso and its needs. Father Waldt tneldent. Father Walsh's carder ih Lincoln was of brief duration. It was eut short by an inci- dent as thrilling as it; was somewhat tragic. lmmediately aftor the -whurder of Sheedy, the gambler, in Lincoln, and tho arrest and imprisonment of Mrs. Sheedy on the charge of being an accessory, Father Walsh gave testimony before the coroner's jury which Enml,v offended the prisonor. Some time ofore the crime she professed a_desire for conversion, had sont for Father Walsh and recoived instructions from him. To counter- act the testimony he had given Mrs. Sheedy charged him with various offenses. Bishop Bonacum determined to - investigate the charges, and brought the necused and the ac- cuser face to face in the county jail. Mrs. Sheedy repeatod the charges and succeeded in convincing the bishop of their truth. Turning to the accused father the bishop in- dignantly oxclaimed, **My house, like Cosar's wife, must be above suspicion.” Suspension WAS 8 necessary sequence. It is claimed by the friends of Father Walsh thae the punishment meted out to him was unjust and excessive—unjust be- cpuse he was given no opportunity to refute the charges made against him by one ac- cused at_the time of .conspiring to_take human life, and excessive in that Father Walsh belonged to the St. Louis diocese and the bishop could not do more than withdraw his faculties for the diocese in which he was temporarily stationed. Father Walsh appealed the case to Mgr. Satolli and made n personal call on the papal representative some time ago. is council is the famous Dr. Burtsell of Rondout, N. Y., who championed the cause of Dr. McGlynn and was removea by Arch- bishop Corrigan. CALIFORNIA'S DAY, Dedication of Her Big State Bullding at the World's Falr, Cioaco, June 10.—The. great California building, next to that of Illinois, the largest state building on the World's fair grounds, was formally opened today.

The exercises openod with an address and thé delivery of the kevs to Governor Markham, by Hon. J. D. Phelan, vico president of the California World's fair commission.

Cn1oaao, June 19, —It is very probable that the lines in the Central association will shortly oxtend their limit on the World's fair excursions. The time, as it now stanas, is four days, including the one on which the ticket is purchased. Somuny strong objec- tions have boen made ko tho limit that many of the general agents, jre strongly in fayor of exempting the day,upon which the ticket is purchased, thus making'the time five days. The matter will come up for early consider- ation. ! The decision of the ‘federal court of ap- peals opening the fair on Sunday has given a decided tmpetus to excursion business and some of the ronds arg alrbady pushed for cars to supply tho demand, By tho end of this woel it is thought by several eastern roads thav they will bboverwhelmed by de- mands for Sunday exGursion trains and re- quests are already Yoming in at a rate which justifies this belief, ——————— PASSENGER AGENTS IN SESS1ON.

STOLE HIS BROTHER'S WIFE Unnatural Afl'nr,ti;nd Its Btartling Sequel, HOW A HAPPY I0WA HOME WAS RUINED Thomas Woolett's Soarch for His Wife nnd Brother—Gamblors Set n Trap and Get Canght ln Tt— Minor Police Items. Thomas Wollett, a fireman on the Towa Central railroad. who lives in Marshalltown, Ia, is in the city looking for his wife, who eloped from the above city on Friday. Wollett sought the aid and advice of Chief of Polico Svavey and related quite a tale of woe Soveral years ago he married a bright little maiden in Marshall county, Towa, and began married lifo in Marshalltown, whero he has since resided. Three children were the result of this union and Wollett looked forward with ploasure on his return trips when te could welcome his family. But » cloud arose on his domestic horizon in the shapo of his brother, who boarded near his home. At times when he returned ‘home he heard rumors of the actions of his wife and brother which oaused him much worry. He was loth to be- lieve theso rumors and attributed thém to some scandal monger who wanted to injure him and his family. Last Friday morning he went out on his regular trip and returned home to find his elder tyo children at home crying and a note from his wilo saying she had left his bed and board, On making inquiries he ascertained that his wife and younfcu baby and brother had left the city during his absence and had taken with them &35 in cash and all the port- ablo valuables around the house. Then Wollett realized that Dame Rumor had not altogether lied in her damaging gossip. He became convinced that the guilty couple had started wost and after placing his two deserted children under the care of kind friends started in pursuit. The trail led him to Omaha and was here assisted by the police in locating the elopers. Wollettisof the opinion that he precipitated theclopement by accusing his wife of mavital infidelity with his brother ago. I'he accusation led to & heated argument and tho wife's denials were so emphatic that ho was inclined to give her story full credence. Looated In ¥outh Omaha. G. M. Woollett of Marshalltown, located his truant wife, who had run away with his brother three days ago, in South Omaha last night, or rather Chief Beckett did. The couple had rented a room in a private family and young Woollott had socured a job in one of the packing houses and intended to go to work this morning. WobLlBtt Arabioslted U, 4t the worina hnd her I-year-old baby were taken to a hotel. Mrs. Woellett was seen by a reporter for Tur Beg and said she was sorry she had Jeit her husband and would willingly go back home with him if he would take her. She said that the brother had filled her ears with bad stories about her husband and finally got her to believe them. She could Tow see clearly thatit was a game to get her away. They have been living as man and wife since lenving Macshalltown. The brother, who is not more than 20 years of age, was seen at the jail. He said that the woman was as much to blame as he. He was sorry for what he had done, how- ever, on account of it being his brother's wife. Young Woollett is a brazen faced, smart young man with a reckless, tough air and does not seem to realize the scrious predicament that he is in. He boarded with his brother in Marshall- town, and admits that his brother was al- ways very good to him. No charge was placed against him last night, but probably will be when his brother appears in court this morning. Lite Three gamblers were in the police court yesterday to explain a case of a sharper gotting ficeced. They appeared in court on a polite but persuasive invitation from De- tectives Savage and Dempsey, 1n answer to a complaint by one Shepard, who, with Ed Miller, is alleged to run the Creighton house, After the gamblers were prought into the station it was learned that it was o case of the “double cross,” and tho fleecer go: fleeced. As near as can be learned a gambler namer Berry went into the Creighton house on Sat- urday evening, and as he frequently exhib- 1ted o roll of small bills, which concealed a corncob to give them a plethoric appear- ance, Shepard concluded that the fellow was ripe for a plucking of his wealth, He approached a pair of gamblers named Smith and Peck, who hang around that house, and told them to get Berryinto n poker gante, and aftor geiting him protty full they would *‘cold deck” him and win ail his money, It happened, however, that Berry, Smith and Peck were pals, and_after Shepard had put up the game to rob Berry, who had ex- posed the bogus roll of mmm{‘ns a bait, they concluded to rob Shepard at his own game. Shepard and the party began the game and ordered drinks frequently for the supposed victim. He might as well have poured water into a prairie dog's hole, for the liguor had no effect on Berry. Soon the cold deck was lifted by Smith, so Shepard alleges, but he lllpe)efl the cut and gave Berry four queens while Shepard only got an ace full, ‘T'ne botting commenced, and when the call was made Shepard had in the neighborhood of 100 good silver dollars in the pot. Ho was paralyzed by the sight of four quocns in the hunds of Berry and the game broke up in a row. Shepard complained to tho police, and for his trouble was charged with run- ning a gnmblhlg houso without a license. He will have a hearing today. Peck made his escape to Ceuncil Bluffs, but Smith and Berry are being held as wit- nesses. Looking for t Daughter, Several days ago Henry Huhl, who livos at 1540 Locust street, Davenport, Ia., wroto to Chief Seavey and askell him to find his daughter who had run away from home and was m(nklh!f with soiled doves in Omaha, The chief had the girl looked up and brought to the jail. Now Mr. Huhl writes that he has no money to send to pay the girl's transportation back home, and rather suggested tho ides of tho oity or county bearing the expense. The father was notifled that if he wanted his girl he must send for her and it is probable that he will do so. Work of the Deteotives, The semi-monthly reportof the chief of dotectives, H. P. Haze, shows that sixty- seven arrests were mado the first fitteen dsys of this month and that $400 worth of stolen property was recovered and returned 10 the owners. Out of the total number ar- rested only twelve wero discharged. Very few petty crimes have been committed this ‘month and but a very small amount of prop- erty stolen. The city at present is rumur{(- ably free from crooks, and those who do stay here are kept under constant surveil- lance and don’t have a chance to steal any- thing. Swmall Reward for u Marderer. Murder evidently don’t count for much in Evansville, at least one would judge so from the fact that Chief Covey of the Evansville police only offers a $25 reward for the cap: ture of Dick Hamilton, a negro who killed his wife the other day and then struck out for the west. The Omaha police will keep an eye peeled for Hamilton, and the tirst officer who picks him up will be the richer by u quarter of hundred. In., Wanted In Canada. §. H. Carpenter, provincial government detective of Mountreal, has sent to the local police a description of one Emile Riboulet. alias Kuehne, who is badly wanted by the Canadian ofticials for embezzlement.

Yesterday the chief of police sont the gir's ante-mortom statoment to the county attorney of Gage county with the request as to what was to bo done with prisoner.

The prisoner will have a hearing this morning. George Horman, tho youth acoused of robbing Gray's photogravh gallery, ap- peared in court yesterday and on waiving examination was bound over to await the action of the grand jury in the sum of $600. ‘I'hetWestern Clothing company's store on Douglas street, near Fourtoonth, was en- tered 1ast night by a thief or thieves and a couple of suits of clothing and some shirts stolen.

The following officors were on duty at the bank: Stiles, Ravencamp, Rus- soll and Bloom. Thomas J. Fitzmorris and others have re- quested the police to compel a gang of riot- ous boys who play in the shool yard at Sev- enteonth and Leavenworth streets to keep order. ‘The officor on that beat will see that the citizens residing in the neighborhood are not disturbed hereaftor, The case against Joseph Etherton, who is charged with assauling Mary Ann Donnelly, was continued until today on account of the nonappearance of the complaining wit- ness. The police do not give tho woman a good character and they are of the opinion that she will not appear against Etherton Dotective Hudson left last night for Lin- coln for requisition papers for J. Holnan, who is at present sorving time in Kansas City for larceny. The prisoneris one of a party which broke into Altman's North Six- toenth stroot dry goods stove last March. He will be brought back here and tried for burglary. Gus Schultz, who operates a gin mill at Eloventh and Capitol avenue, reports to the police that his negro portor is missing and also some small chango and several bottles of wine. Mr. Schultz has a habit of locking his porter in the saloon when the place is closed for the night, and as the negro broke out and not in he cannot be tried for burg- lary after he is cavght. This is the third time in a little over two years that porters have broken out of the saloon and carried away some of tho stock. STRI facod the police S tlene S TIED TO VOTES., Enough Congressmen May Favor Knocking Out tho Silver Purchase Act* WASHINGTON, June 10.—President Cleveland is watching with much inter- est the numerous efforts being made by congressmen and by newspapers to poll members of the next congress on the silver question. As a whole the returns have been quite satisfactery to the ad- ministration and they support the confi- dence the president had begun to fecl in the improved condition of democratic opinion as to the necessity of repealing at once the Shorman purchase law. 1t is understood, however, that Seerotary COarlisle is still far from satisfied at the prospect. He has no doubt that a majority of the house will favor the repeul of the law, but he does not yet see that there will be a sufficient num- ber of votes to repeal it without a stipu- lation for something elso as the price of repeal. What with members who will not vote for repeal uniess they can have free coinage for it, and the other mem- bers who insist thatrepeal shall only be granted on condition of the repeal of tho tax on state banks, the sceretary is un- able to cxawess perfect confidence in the action of the house. There is no doubt that before congress is.called upon to legislate there will be an effort to ascertain to what extent the proposition to repeal the tax on state banks will be acceptable in con- gress and among the men who are apt to look at it from a point of view not affected by partisanship. Oddly enough the opposition to stato banks scems to come from sections of tho country that have the greatest need of the facilities that free banking would supply. Kan- sas,which knows itself best, is for green- buacks, and in other parts of the west there is opposition to state banks, while the south is strongly inclined to look upon the proposition as furnishing a good solution with the adoption of care- ful guards for the oft complained of scareity of currency. Congressman Raynor of Maryland has written to all the most prominent oppo- nents of free silver and asks what will be their course in the next congress. The responses are likely to be more definite than those herctofore given for publication, It will be the basis of cal- culation among the anti-silver men. It is likely, also, to advance Mr. Raynor to the leadership of the anti-silver ranks. He is a skillful parliamentarian and one of the best spealkers in congress. Army Officers and the Indinns, The action of the president inappoint- ing army officers as Indian agents meets with the hearty approval of nearly every person who has given any atten- tion to the Indian problem, It has been the belief of those people, and especially 80 was it _the opinion of Helen Hunt Jackson, the novelist, whose ‘‘Century of Dishonor” was such a terrible arraignment of tho government's treat- ment of the Indians—that the frequent risings of the red men have been gener- ally due to the incompetency and dis- honesty and gennral unfitness of the men who have been placed in charge of the reservations, Officials who are familiar with this subject know very well that in many cases men have been appointed as agents who possessed neither tho training, the firmness, the courage nor the peculiar gifts of tem- perament to succossfully manage Indi- ans, It has frequently been said that overy Indisn war, overy massacre of sottlers and farmers by the Indians, is directly traceable to the knavery of government official, genorally to the agent, who, either by baud or foolish treatment, or the curtailment of sup- plies, forced the nation's wards into adopting desperate measures to have their wrongs remedied, The appoint- ment of army officers, therefore, 1s re- garded as a step in the right direction and, while it wdl not immediately rem- edy all the ovils, it will lead to a better administration, Walting for the Commission, Hon. Jumes E. North, the newly appointed revenue collector, has been watched for in Omaha for sevoral doys. Ho Is currently reported as having said, however, that until his commission reachos him he is neither go- ing to sy & word nor move a foot, but that whon tho looked-for docament doos arrave, he will consider humselfspublic property and conauct himself accordiugly.

" Action by the United States. NEw York, June 10.—At the Amorican board of foreign missions in this city it was learned that the outcome of tho trial con- ducted in Angora against the Armonians who were charged with rioting in Cesaren Marsovan lagh spring has greatly surprised tee board. Rev. Dr, Charles H. Daniels, the district socretary of the board, said today: “All these prisoners are natives. The two pro- fessors who have been sentenced to death, Mr. Thouman, the senior professor of the college, and Prof. Kayan, regent. The, were arrested and imprisoned on Januavy and every request to seo them or givoe bai for them was refused. Rov. Dr. C. C. Tracy the president of the college, who has just ur: rived here, has stated that there was no evidence connecting them with the issuing litious placards. Merely boc: anifostos were written with a oy affirmed that they must have issued from the college, and thus the charge was made to furnish a basis for an attack upon the college. On_the night of February 10 a building which was being erected for the girls’ school was seton fire, 1t was at once charged by the Turkish ofticers that the Armenians had started the fire to o al the fact that arms and ammunition were stored in the building. ‘T'he oficial investigation, however, definitely fastened the responsibility on the late officials in Marsovan and the college S cleared of all charges against it of complicity in revolutionary plans. Yet tho two native professors were uot reloased. If they have now been declared gruilty it must have been done by the forgery of alleged documents and by perjured wil A Washington H Gresham was shown a dispatch from Con- stantinople published in this morning’s papers, stating the sentences imposed on Armenians whose trials have just been con- cluded at Angora. *“This is the first news I have received of the trials,” said the secre- tary. “No ofticial information on the sub- ject has reached me and T am unpreparod to say what, if anything, will be done about it by our government.” From other sources, howevor, it was ascertained that the government had taken special pa 10 post itself on the progress of the prosecutions and the history of the ineident on which they are based. A very complote confidential report archives of the Statedepartment. Whilo our government, as a government, has had no authority to mtevfere in the matter of the two professors condemned to death, neither of them being an American citizen, it has placed every facility at the disposal of the American fricnds of tho accused, and the American consul general at Constanti- nople saw to the rotaining of the ablest counsel that could be procured there and sent to Angora.
