Supplies from Cancasia are im proving in quantity, and it is hoped that they will avail to stave off the worst ef fects of the famine.

On Monday, a large fleet of barges and vessels appeared on the Turkish coast of the Black sea near Derkos, a town about seventy miles northwest of Constantino ple, arid landed 12,000 Cossacks and 22,- 000 infantry. They seized the railroad along the coast from Constantinople to Imada, crossed . the coast range and seized another railway from Constanti nople to Soffia, a town about sixty miles west of Constantinople. . This com mands the two roads to Constantinople, and gives the Russians control of the narrow wedge between the Black sea and the sea of Marmosa. At the point of this wedge lies Constantinople. This movement flanks all the . defenses of Constantinople except those round, the city and renders help from there practi caliy useless. It is said Russia has been accumulating barges and shipping of all kiuds at the mouth of the Danube for six months past without discovery, nnd that the whole of the 240,000 troops as sembled in southwestern Russia can be transported and landed within sixty miles of Constantinople inside of the next four days before anything can be done by England, Germany, Austria or Italy. . .

FROM FOREIGN LANDS Political .Refugees in Chili are in a. Tight BoxThe Junta Hard After Them. Germany and England Trying to Pro tect South American Residents Will Pay Balmaceda's Debts. No Land for Foreigncrs-Don't Like the Duke Can't Join Hands Rifles for Russia. Loxdox, Oct. 21. A special cablegram from Valparaiso, Chili, says: The Spanish legation continues to afford shelter to five political refugees, despite the manifest desire of the junta that they be turned over to its custody. Senor Ordonez, the Spanish minister, has been and is now acting in accord with Mr. Egan, who has laid materiaand pointed evidence before the provisional minister of foreign affairs referring to his rights in the premises. ' Mr. Egan's argument i is so forcible and conclusive that it is strongly probable that a safe conduct will be granted the political refugees in the American legation after the elections determine who is to be Balmaceda's suc cessor as president of Chili. ' - In regard to the row . between the Chilian and American sailors the crim inal judge has assured the consul-general that he will hold a full investigation into the affair,, and will punish those found to have been the aggressors. The ' wounded American sailors are improv ing, and it is believed that all are now ont of danger. MAY END THE SAME. Uermany and England Seeking; to Pro tect Residents In South America. - Berlin, Oct. 21. It is reported that the German government has made a proposition to Great Britain with the view "of taking united action in South America for protection of their common interests." The German government is . determined' to maintain the' demand ' on behalf of German' subjects for indemnity ' for injuries caused during' the Chilian revolution,' as" well as to Becure some guarantee for the proper security of ter mari subjects either resident in or trad- -ing with Chili and other South Ameri can countries in the future.' "While the proposaT, so far as mooted, would appear to call for noting further than united ac tion in exacting damage for injury re ceived, yet in the end it would pfobably amouni to a protectorate over at least-. Chili and the Argentine Republic. ' It is remembered that the trouble with: Mexico, which resulted in tbe disastrous, attempt to establish an empire, began in a similar demand on that republic for the more efficient protection or foreign ers and the payment of arrears of debt ; the demand being sustained by a Brit ish naval and French military . expedi--" tion.. . ; . - .

"The -. enormous debts piled upon Chili by Bal maceda will be a heavy burden on the land for several years to come',' said Mr-1 Moritt. "Balruaceda went into' a ' wildt career of extravagance toward the last, and yet the debts he contracted the Chilian government will be compelled' to pay. The junta, or present, provis ional government, will be supplanted -by a' permanent government organiza tion to take place immediately after the coming election. As soon; as the new E resident and the new congress shall ave been elected, the work of recon struction will progress rapidly." ; " " ' ''" ' ' 1 " " " :' .; ';f ',. ' ''., ' - ' Shanghais Oct. 21.
