Report from Berlin that Foreign Con- /) suls at Beirut Have Called on the American Admiral for Frotection, and He Has Already Sent a Force of Marines Ashore. Sultan’s Troops Surround 2,000 Insur- ,gents Near Adrianople and May Put All of Them to Death--Christians Threaten to Retaliate for the Turk- ish Atrocities. . BERLIN, Sept. ®&—Annourcement is made in a despatch delayed in transmission from Constantinople to the Lokal Anzeiger that some of the marines from Admiral Cotton's ships have probably already been landed at Beirut. “The Consuls,” says the despatch, “decided to call on Rear-Admiral Cotton fur the protection of the foreign Consulates, which he agreed to furnish. It is considered that the Americans could land 500 men, The American ships are cleared for action. Other warships are expected. “The tension between the Mahometans and Christians in Syria, which has prevailed for a long time, is not connected with the Macedonian move- ment. MURDERS OF CHRISTINS CONTINUE. “Telegraphic Consular reports received in Constantinople say that the murder of Christians in different parts of Beirut continues. Disorder pre- vails and traffic 1s destroyed. The Consular Corps devided to ask for the recall of the Vali, Rechard Bey, through the embassies at Constantinople and to replace him hy the Vali of Syria (Nazim Pasha), now at Damascus.” The German Foreign Office approves of Admiral Cotton's intention to land a guard to protect the United States Consulate at Beirut, if necessary, and of his holding a Janding party in readiness to protect the foreigners there. The officials here say it would be just what the Germans would do under the same circtimstances. " Neyertheless, the feeling in official quartérs over the appearance of the American ships off Beirut appears to be that “it complicates~ the: Tar- kish situation, “because,” it is asserted, “a new element has been brought in, which acts independently of the powers, now that the pressure of the powers is more or less co-ordinated, and the Porte may know what to expect. But the American action is not easily calculated and will tend to excite the Turkish Government and add to the perplexities,”” SOME GERMANS DISTRUSTFUL, Several of the German newspapers, while vather restrained in their lan- guage, look with distrust on the presence of the American warships at Beirut, as likely to disturb the Museulmans. Other papers say it is not fair to ascribe the outbreak to the arrival of the Americans. The Tageblatt says Admiral Cotton is a cautious and feliable commander and not headstrong, and compliments the tone of his reports to Washington, 2,000 MEN TRAPPED BY TURKS MAY BE MASSACRED CONSTANTINOPLE, Sep’. 9.—News reached here to-day that two thou- sand insurgents have been surrounded at Kirk-Kilesseh, thirty-two miles from Adrianople, and official circles here momentarily expect news of their aupihilation, Notwithstanding the large number of troops honoentratea at Adrian. ople, the regiment of Hamidieh cavalry to which the Sultan presented colors Sept. 4 leaves here this evening for Adrianople.

He. a 1 that the Greater New York Democracy will oppose a motiom te natq the Mayor tooth and ail, and that every effort will be made those opposed to the renomination of the Mayor to postpone definite actigm at to-night’s meeting. . Another development in the political situation was the springing the name of Justice Charles H. Van Brunt, of the Appellate Division ¢ the Supreme Court, as that of Tammany's dark horse. It is said the Tammany leaders have decided to nominate Justice Van Brunt Mayor and Representative McClellan for Borough President. ‘he of Justice Van Brunt on the Supreme Court bench expires on Dec. $1, i He Is eaid to be willing to resign from the bench with the expectation serving two years instead as Mayor of New York. * The Sheehan announcement of hostility to Low came as a surprise to the Mayor's friends. They had been led to’expect that Mr, Sheehan and hie. - ganization would get into line in constderation of being allowed to name the candidate for Borough President on the Fusion ticket. The Fastoniste want a young man for this position—a man, in the words of Clty Chamber. _ lain Gould, “somewhat of the stamp of District-Attorney Jerome.” + ae ACTION MAY BE PUT OFF. With the united opposition of the Greater New York Democracy and the German-American Reform Union to the renomination of the Mayor ét fs hardly likely that definite action will be taken at the conference to-night. ‘The understanding is that the Mayor will not accept a renomination unless all of the organizations represented in the Fusion movement unite in indore. ing him. Those who have his campaign in charge thought they had ewung the hostiles into line. Aart John C. Sheehan was in conference with his district leaders all day. Not one of them reported sentiment favorable to the Mayor. Most of them were outspoken in saying that Mayor Low would prove to be the weakest candi< date the Fusion forces could put up. They thought that the strongest men to run against Tammany Hall would be District-Attorney Jerome, A “The Greater New York Democracy,” said Mr. Sheehan to an Eves ing World reporter, after he had conferred with his leaders, “will ‘oppose the renomination of Mayor Low. , Personally, I think he would Prove: weak candidate, but, as I have told his friends who have approached me, I would vote for him and use my influence for him. But I cannot speak for the Greater New York Democracy. “We are opposed to the Mayor because be has not lived up'to dae. idea of fusion. He has appotated men who have retained Tammany Hall workers in positions against the wishes of those who helped to put him in offlce. The city departments ure honeycombed with Tammany men, who are furnishing the sinewe of war for the campaign. e “Street-Cleaning Commissioner Woodbury might just as well Tammany appointee, for all the good he has done the fusion ma Nearly every Tammany man who was in his department when he hold is there yet, front his private secretary down to the humblest estreet~ sweeper. His is one example of many. \ ORGANIZATION NOT PLEDGED, g “There is a strong sentiment in our organisa the Mayor would be the weakest man we could put up. Our is not pledged to any man. I want that understood. We have indorsed the administration of Mayor Low, but we have not declared for his renome ination, and we do not intend to, > “The Greater New York Democracy will have fourteen delegates at to- ae night's conference, These delegates will report to the Executive Committss of the organization. Then it will be up to the Executive Committee to decide what the Greater New York Democracy ts going to do,” Superintendent of Public Buildings Walker was one of Mr, callers during the day. Mv. Walker is at the head of a district o of the Greater New York Democracy numbering 1,500 men, He declares the sentiment throughout hig district is against the renominaion of yor. 3 ea delegation from Queens and another from Richmond have called 6 "said Mr. Walker, “and asked me to assure Mr. Sheehan that the G er New York Democracy organizations In those boroughs 1s not prepared | indorse the renomination of the Mayor. Down in Richmond andover in Q they think he will be beaten. I apprehend that he will not be a o vg. foolish to go into the campaign with a candidate who had not the’ support of all the fusion organjzations,”” The problem confronting the managers of the fusion machine is’ the G.
