Y A NEW STATEMENT Willi Reference to Condition of Affairs in Armenia. STATEMENT OF THE PORTE Official Utterances of the American Hoard of Coiuiiilaalonera for Ko reign JIIli!ii-Turkey Trying to Aaamiie Auihorlty Over Vorelgnera' Mall. BobTON, Jannary 1. Tlie following staleinent with ref rence to the condi tion o( affitirg in eight dietricta of Ar menia In which ChrUtinu missionaries are etationed wus to-day insued by the American Board of Coiiiuiiuaioiiers for Koreitrn ilisgiona : " Otticial letters Bent recently from the rooms of the American Board of Com- iiiiHsioners for Foreign Mimiions, contain ing accounts relating to the Kuropean Ttirkish missions, were opened by the Turkish official. The letters were sub sequently delivered, but with the Turk ish word 'examined ' written on the en velope. This indicated that the Turkish government is attempting to assume all authority over the muil of foreigners. " When the reports of the massacre of Christians in the Kassoun district of Eastern Turkey became public after morn than two months of suppression on the part of the Turkish officials, the Ottoman government was alarmed at widespread publications in the American and Knglisli press. Under pressure from foreign powers the Sultan agreed to send a commissioner to investigate and report upon the outrages. In view of this promise of the government the repre sentatives of the European powers at Constantinople decided to wait for the reHrt before taking any positive action. But after this decision by the powers, and while they were waiting for the de parture of the Sultan's commission, which had been appointed, and which was to make full and impartial investi gations of all the affairs reported by the English Consul, as well as by many in dividuals from the Sassoun district, the Turkish government gave out the ap pended official statement of the case, which statement was printed in the pa pers of Constantinople. All papers orinted in Tnrkev are nntler close cen sorship, and no paper could refuse to print tbe statement under penalty ol im mediate suspension. Hence the Christ ian periodicals were compelled to print what they knew to be false. The state ment is as lollows: " Some of the European papers have stated, contrary to the truth, that a few Armenian villages have been destroyed, and in the meantime persons have been massacred hv the Turkish soldiers in the district of Sassoun. Others, in order to magnify these reports, have asserted that the news of the outrage was pre vented from leaking out by the obsta cles the government put in the way of travelers from that district. The sub jects of the Empire of Sassoun district are quietly engaged with their business, and the people travel wherever they wish in perfect safety. Some Armenian bandits, being induced bv agitators, be gan lately in and about Sassoun to dis- turD tne peace ana coruiori oi me peo ple by murdering, plundering and block ing the highways. Iu order to put an end to Buch disasters the government employed the necessary means, and con sequently ordered out a sufficient body of imperial soldiers of the Fourth Army Corps. Thus the extension ot tne re volt being checked, the troops were with drawn to their headquarters. There was no interference by I lie Kurds; but, as stated above, some Armenian bandits having ventured to disorderly actions, the Sublime Porte, having been notified by the repoitB of the authorities of the Fourth Imperial Army Corps and also by the Governor of Bitlis, undertook to investigate as to the facts, and subse quently a commission of inquiry was ap pointed, composed ot Atxiauan rasna, Eomer Bey, Medjid Eflendi and Hafeu Tevfix Pasha. The commission will start this week by steamer to the scene of the trouble. In general the Sublime Porte will never allow such outrages to be perpetrated as published in foreign paperB upon her suDjects.' CIIAUXCKV DEI'KW'b PROTEST. . NkW Yokk, January 1. Channcey M. Denew to-night delivered an address on the Armenian atrocities. He began by saying that the year 181)4 haB been a pe culiarly unhappy ono. The world had been visited during tlie year oy revolu tions both social and financial. But the crowning cause of unlinppiness and the one which left a bloody stain upon the history ol the year was the murder ot the helpless Armenians by the Turks. He continued: " It behoves us as public-Bpirited citi zens to begin the new year with a protest against the outrages at Sassoun. The peace of Europe is only maintained by an ever-increasing armament. At Wash inton all may be silent, but America with 65,000,0(i0 voices in a language of her own the universal language of the globe will protest in tones that cannot be mistoken against the slaughter ot our fellow-Christians." NEWFOUNDLAND CRISIS. Government Paoed the Guarantee Bill by a single Vote. St. Johns, N. F., January 1. The government carried the bill of guarantee hank notes through the Council last night by a majority of one. There has been considerable opposition to the pas sage of the measure, and an attempt to defeat it failed a few days ago through the premature publication of the plan. The dissatisfaction with the bill is so general that the noteholders have decided to call a mass meeting at which resolutions will be adopted petitioning the liovernor from attaching his signature to the measnre. I he Union can sharehold ers will hold a meeting to-morrow and the nrst business on the programme to be transacted is the removal of the pres ent Board of Directors and the appoint ment of a new one. Ihfl condition ot the Union Bank, it is said, is very satis factory, and its leading shareholders are confident of its success, for the Bank of Montreal will assist in every way, and the government will provide for special legislation. Murdered by Taqol Indiana. Tcscos, January 1. Frank Dobbs, formerly a resident of Tuscon, was mur dered by Yaqui Indiana in the State of Sonora, Mexico, Friday night. Dobba established an Indian village at the San Francisco Midwinter Fair. He left San Francisco before the fair closed, failing to pay tbe Indians be bad brought from Arizona and Mexico and leaving tbem to return as best they might. Two of j tbe Indians were with Dobbs at the time j he was killed, and the opinion prevail! ; here that they killed bim for his having 1 failed to pay wbat was due for their services at the fair. I THE WAR IN CHINA. I.I Hung Chung Hits lleeu Finally Omted rroiu t'ffloh London, January 1. A Central News Agency dispatch from Peking says that Liu Kun Yi, Viceroy of Liang Kiang, Iibb been appointed to the chief mi' mand of all the Chinese forces, ousting LI Hung Chang. The same agency's correspondent at Antong telegraphs that details from Kung Wesal confirm the re ports that the recent battle was fought with great obstinacy. The Chinese were strongly intrenched. Ihey had eleven field pieces and some machine guns, which were well handled. The Japanese charges were repulsed with heavy loss. Their reserves from HaitCben, who have experienced gieatdifnculty on the inarch. owing to the snow, then joined theru, and they made another charge wun nur- rahB and shouts of victory. This time they carried everything. The Jap- onese admit that they had 450 killed and wounded, and say that the Chinese had 300 killed and wounded. The snow pre vented a successful pursuit of the retreat ing Chinese. The villages along the route of retreat drove away the Chinese soldiers who sought refuge with them. T hey said they preferred to be governed by tlie Japanese. A dinnatch from Tokio savs: "Gen eral Nodzu, who commands the Japan ese army in Manchuria, reports that the natives nave oeen greatly innuenceu ny the clemency of the Japanese, and that many residents who. had fled from their homes are returning with their families and willingly assisting the Invaders. Markets have been opened. Japanese currency circulates freely, and the Jap anese administration is working well." STATE FUNDS ALL RIGHT. Indlunapolla Hurprlaeil by the Failure of Mtate Treaaurer Gall. Indianapolis, January 1. State Treas urer Albert Gall, who was caught for f 16,000 in the failure in 181)3 of the In dianapolis National Bank, and who has operated a mammoth carpet and wall piper house for over thirty years, being reputed one of the wealthiest men in Indianapolis, last night turned over all his property, real and personal, to Adolph Siedensticker and Frederick Baclunan as trustees for his creditors. Treasurer Gall will go out of office in a few days, having served two terms as State Treas urer. He attempted to save himself when the Indianapolis bank failed by taking paper securities from President Haughey, but on an order from the court the securities had to lie returned to the receiver of the bank, and Gall was left to lose the entire amount. Friends are supposed to have come to his relief, bo that the extent of Ins obligations cannot be learned. The trustees refuse to talk of the matter. Gall has never carried less than f 100,000 in stock at his carpet house, and bus suffered on account of the hard times. There was in circula tion last night a rumor to the effect that Gall was short in his official accounts to the amount of (04,000, The rumor arose from the fact of the transfer of the stock. When questioned regarding the matter last night Mr. Gall" said r " ' K--- - " There is not one word or troth in the rumor. Every cent of the funds belong ing to the State is in the vault at the Statehouse, and could be turned over to my successor to-morrow morning if neo estary. I am preparing to pay off a large portion of the State debt, and the payment will be made promptly Jan uary 1." FORTY-TWO PERISHED. Another Added to the Number of Vic tims at Silver Lake. Klamath Fai.i.s, January 1. The latest news of the holocaust at Silver Lake reached here to-day by a'Lakeview Btage driver, Bob Oglesby, who sayB that the reports sent out are correct, with the exception that one more body was found in the ruins, which makes a total of forty-two lives lost. The great distance of Silver Lake from this place, the deep snow and general bad weather have made communications next to impos sible. Of the disposition of the dead and injured nothing is known here. The situation, however, must be terrible. How the dead were buried and where coffins were secured is not known. The nearest settlement to Silver Lake is Pais ley, more than fifty miles southeast. It iB understood help was sent to the death stricken settlement from that place. It seems remarkable that some person has not reached Lakeview or this place with tlie full particulars of the tragic af fair. Aliout one week haB now elapsed since the lire, and no word has been re ceived further than to show that the lives were lost. The residents of South eastern Oregon are horri lied over the dis tress ng affair. Many of the persons burned to death are well-known all over the State. It is understood that a relief party was organized at Paisley and left for lakeview Wednesday, two days after the tragedy occurred. It'was doubtless able to render valuable assistance to the stricken survivors and needed aid in burying the dead. WITHOUT A PARALLEL. Complications Growing Out of a Murder ' on a Border l.lue. Raleioh, N. C, January 1. It may tie safely said that the case of the State vs. Hall in an opinion of the Supreme Court just filed has had no parallel. Deputy Sheriff Hull, standing just this side of the line, fired and killed Andrew Brison, a prisoner who was escaping into Tennessee. Hall was tried and convicted of murder in this State. On appeal this was reversed on the ground that "in contemplation of the law'' Hall was in Tennessee when the killing was done. He was then arrested and held as a fugitive from justice. The Governor of Tennes see sent for Hall on requisition. Hall plied for discharge, but Judge Bellow refused to discharge him. He then a re applied to the Supreme Court, and the court by a majority of one decided he must tie discharged, because, not having been in Tennessee at the time of the killing, he cannot be a fugitive from jus tice. Justice McRae loins in the dis sent on thj gronnd that, if in contem plation of law Hall was in Tennessee at fie time of the killing, he cannot be tried in the court of North Carolina. In the same contemplation of the law he must be a fugitive from jnstice, for he cannot now be found in Tennessee, but in North Carolina. The California Wlnemakera. Ban Francisco, January 1. A special meeting of the Board of Directors of the California winemakeri' corporation will be held next Thursday in this city and all winemakeri in the State, who have not already joined the association, have been invited to attend, when the work ings and object of the company will be fully explained. The director assert that the price of wine ha advanced sev eral cent a gallon since the incorpora tion of th association. THE MONGOLIANS Regulations Governing Coining and Going of Laborers. CONFORM WITH THE TREATY Cerlincat.i of Iteglitratlou, a Personal Description and Three Photographs Among ltruulrsmeiita Neeeaeary to uter the United State.. Wamiinuton, December 81. The regulations for tbe return to the United States of Chinese laborers as provided for by the recent treaty between this country and China have been completed by the Secretary of the Treasury. Under the 'regulations a Chinese laborer who has resided and registered in the United State and departed therefrom, and who also; may have a lawful wife, child or parent in this country or property there in ot the value of (1,000 or debts of like amount due bim, will be permitted to return, provided that before departing he Je posits with the Collector of Cus tom of the district in which he resides, or with the nearest customs officer, a certificate, of registration from the In ternal Revenue Collector and a full de scription ol his family, property or debts. The papers must be accoinpaui.'d by three photographs of the laborer, and the statement submitted by him, if found to be correct, will be certified by the Collector of Customs. Trie paper with the photographs are to be trans mitted to the Collector of Custom of the port fiom which the Chinese person is to depart, and who must return to the country via the port of departure. The certified description ol tbe Chinaman will be filed in the office of the Collector at tbe port of exit as a means of identi fication. Hie return to the united States must be within one year from the date of departure, unless sickness or other disability prevents, in which event the facts are required to be certified by the Chinese Consul at the port from which the Chinese person may depart for tbe United SlateB. A certificate will be issued to thelaboreron his departure, which will not contain a description of the person to whom issued, but which will refer to the identification papers by number. This will obviate the Bale or exchange of certificates and render the lUenililcauon oi tne returning uiiiiieno more certain. Collectors at ports of exit will be required to transmit to the Treas ury Department weekly reports of Chi nese leaving their respective ports, giv inir the name, local residence and oc cupation of such persons. The Collectors will also be required to cancel an certi ficates of returning Chinese and to for ward the same to the Treasury, where records are to be kept on forms specially provided for this purpose. The certi- tjoatea to be issued win oe serially num bered and issued bv the department to OollHctiirs on reauisition therefor, an ac- eotont baiag kept In each instance. . Col lectors will be required to exerciBe un usual care in all matter pertaining to the issuance, cancellation and return to the deportment of such certificates. REPENTANT MADELINE. tateraent Made for the Public by Breck inridge's Former Concubine. Nbw Yobk, December 31. Statements have been made that Madeline Pollard intended to go upon the stage, and that in person or by an attorney she purposes following Congressman Breckinridge about the country to levy upon the pro ceeds of hi lecture tour just begun. Prompted by this aud other statements, Madeline Pollard has asked that public ity be given to the following: " I have not wanted to make a state ment of any kind. I could not see that wbat I did was of any interest to people generally. So I have tried to bear all that has been said of me as a part of the punishment for a failure aB a woman. While in tlie last few day the impres sion has gone abroad that I am under an assumed name; that 1 am friendless and not sufficiently provided for, aud that I am in Washington, if ever a woman had friends, great and true, men and women, it is I. I will not believe that men refuse to give my brother em ployment because of my broken life. Nearly half of America has wanted em ployment this year. I am not going bm fore the world in any capacity. 1 nave no message to carry. 1 have asked a question with my life; it cannot be an swered in a day. 1 have no theatrical friends. I have never been situated so that I could have. Their world is far re moved from mine. I live quietly in pri vate with my. brother and Southern friends. I do not believe there is a man or woman on earth who thinks there is money compensation for sorrow. But 1 am orry if for any reason whatsoever 1 am accused of realizing so little the enor mous Borrow that overshadows my life. 1 am not under an assumed name. I have not been in any place where I was not well known. 1 do not mean to be while I live. I have stained my father's people's name, and with the Christ power 1 shall fight from under the stain." . Will Itemiiln In Han Francisco. San Fkancisco, December 31. The dispatch from Louisville, which stated that Ed Corrigan had engaged twenty four stalls at Churchill Down for his string of racers, created considerable in terest among horsemen here, for it was feared Corrigan was about to desert San Francisco. Corrigan, however, stated that he had no intention of leaving San Francisco, as he considered it a good place to winter. He will keep his horses here until March, when they will be sent to Memphis for the spring campaign. He has engaged the stalls at Churchill Ilowns for some horses at present at Hawthorne and for some yearlings on his farm at Midway, Ky. The Income Tarn Case. Washington, December 31.

He Was Averse to Leaving His Indian Owners. Victoria, B. C, December 31. There is a mystery about the sale into slavery among the west coast Indians of a little boy by Arthur Bellinger. Both are Americans, and the man, who is a crip ple, formerly lived in Seattle. The boy ia too young to tell much of a story, but maintain that he once lived In Michl gan. He says Bellinger treated him bru- tally, and Bay be would be happier among the Indian. The Idea that eel linger ia the child' father ha been abandoned by the police, who now think that there is some reason for putting the child out oi the way. llie boy, who is about year of age, say be went to school atChassel, Mich., for a year, and that the teacher' name was Cooty. Bellinger and the child left here for the west coast three months ago in a schooner, the Favorite, and the police bad trouble getting the child, a the Indians spirited him away. How ever, by the aid of Catholic missionaries he was recovered. The chief of the tribe came here with the police, and will give evidence against Bellinger. The Indians ce'ebrated the purchase ot the boy with a grand dance. He was stripped and painted, and the whole tribe danced around him. They treated him very kindly, and the boy objected to parting with one old Indian woman, who had Wen especially kind to him. Bellinger is to be arraigned immediately. NOT EXAGGERATED. Nebraska Farmer Must be Helped or - They Will starve. 0'Nbii.l, Neb., December 31. For some time past stories of extreme desti tution have come from Boyd county and various parts of Holt county, but they had seemed bo improbable that the peo ple here scarcely credited them. In quiries show, however, that the stories were not much exaggerated. The situ ation in Boyd county is bad, and if the people there are not helped soon, they will starve or freeze to death. J. M. Smith, who live on what is called the Three-Mile Strip on the State line, was in O'Neill to-day, and he tells many har rowing stories of the condition of the people in his part of Boyd county. He say that what ia true of the people there is also true ln almost all part ol the county. Mr. Smith- came with a commission from the people of hi sec tion to collect supplies. He gathered considerable flour and provisions to-day and forwarded them. Supposed to be a Chinaman's Head. Santa. Rosa, Cal., December 81. Quite a sensation is being caused by the finding of the skull of a human being in the bed of Santa Rosa creek near the flouring milla here. The condition of the skull indicates that the person it be longed to has been dead lens than two years. Deputy Sheriff Dougherty has possession oi it, anu many nave been to see it. About two year ago a China man named Wins lewas murdered in a gambling house by a Chinaman named Ah Sam. Sam fled out of the back door just as tbe officer appeared in front, and was never seen since. It wag believed at the time by many that friend of Lee had killed Sam out of revenge and hid den his body. Every effort was made to nnd sain, but with no results, it is now believed that the skull found is that of Sam. who, it is believed, wa murdered, his head cut off and thrown into the stream, while the body was buried else where. 1 Beady for Another Revolution.
