- .4...:..\<.- .p‘ ' \ Thhmhimhm. Armenia Has Again Come to the Front ‘ as the Storm Center. A BIG MASSACRE REPORTED. Disagreement of Powers Over Proposed ' Blockade of Greece-\Varlike Prepa- rations on Frontier—A Servian Statesman’s Views. Constantinople, March 24.-——Authentic details of the outbreak at Tokat, in the Sivas district of Asia Minor, when the Turks attacked the Armenians while the latter were in church, show that 100 Christians were massacred. The Ar- menian quarter and bazaar were given over to pillage for eight hours. The representations of the embassa- -dors of ‘the foreign powers regarding the condition of Anatolia‘have made but little impression upon the sultan, who, relying upon the support of Rus- sia, is convinced that he has nothing to fear from the so called concert of the powers. The diplomats here, however, are said once more to be turning their attention to the conductjf the sultan, and it is semiofficially intimated that they are again of the opinion that the system of friendly representations on the subject of Armenia, which has hith- erto been followed, must be..changed for sterner methods. - The embassadors have formally noti- fied the Turkish government of the in- tention of the powers to land troops on the island of Crete for the purpose of relievingthe' detachments of foreign marines now on duty ashore. The porte has raised no objection up to the present, believing that the foreign fleets will then carry out the ‘threat of the powers to blockade the principal ports and coasts of Greece. On this question, however, there is no unanimity of opin- ion, the prevailing impression being that Great Britain and Italy at least will strongly oppose such a step. In the meanwhile the war prepara- tions of Greece are continuing night and day, and there are no indications of a backdown. Troops are being con— tinually hurried to the frontiers, the work of erecting fortifications is pro— gressing rapidly, and all should be in readiness for an advance early in April, when the weather will be much more propitious than now for military pur- poses. It is not impossible that there may be an outbreak on April 6 next, the anniversary of the beginning in 1821 of the Greek war of independence. The Turkish Squadron. The Turkish squadron is still in the Dardanelles, and the opinion is ex- pressed that it will remain there in- definitely. The Turkish headquarters are at Elassona, and the Greek head- quarters are at Larissa. Field guns and other batteries have been placed in position by both sides at the en- trances or exits of the mountain passes leading to and from Thessaly into Mac- edonia and Epirus. The baSe of sup— plies of the Turks is at Salonika, and that of the Greeks is at Athens, al- though the troops and supplies for the armies in the field are landed at V010, Lamia and other ports. The Turks are estimated to have about t0,000 men un- der arms in Macedonia and Epirus, and they are credited with having from 150 ‘ to 200 fieldpieces with them. The Greeks are believed to have about 40,000 men under arms on the frontiers and to be hastening forward every gun procurable in order to coun- teract as much as possible their in- feriority in the number of pieces of ar- tillery. In cavalry also the Turks are said to be much stronger than the Greeks, but by the beginning of April - it is believed the Greeks will be in a much better situation for war thanat present. Money does not appear to be lacking for the equipment of the Greeks, and large supplies of arms and ammunition have been forthcoming from somewhere. The Greeks are an- imated by the strongest feeling of war- like enthusiasm, while the Turks are said to be suffering the greatest priva- tions without ,pay or proper equipment, which has made them sullen and re- sentful, and far from desirous of en- tering upon an aggressive campaign. The hospital and camp arrangements of the Turks are pronounced to be most defective and to have already resulted in serious illness and many d:aths among the redifs brought from Asia ~ Minor into the provinces of Epirus and Macedonia. The Greeks’ Plans. If war is declared, the Greek army frOm Larissa will probably try to enter Macedonia under the Crown Prince Constantine, and a second Greek army Will possibly attempt to enter Epirus from the vicinity of Arta. However, it is still possible that war may be averted by timely concessions to Greece, such as the Withdrawal of all Turkish forces from Crete and the se- lection “f Prince George of Greece as: governor of Crete, with the under- standing that when all is quiet a plebi- scite is to decide whether or not the islar .1 is to be annexed to Greece. The Greek government, according to a dispatch from Athens, has just called out the last of its reserves and has called to the colors all men 32 years of age or upward. Ten additional bat- talions of Greek infantry are being formed, besides 14 more batteries of ar- tillery, etc. These preparations certain- ly do not point to the approach of a peaceful solution of the crisis. A Servian Statesman’s View. Belgrade, Servia, March 24.—A lead- ing statesman in an interview .today with a repreSentative of the press on the eastern questions said: ' “While Servia sympathizes with Greece the Servian government does not regard the present as being a fa- vorable time for the settlement of the Balkan question. If the eastern ques- tion is now reopened, it could only be settled in a way antagonistic to the in- terests of Servia, Bulgaria and Greece. “The recent visit of King Alexaiher to Sofia developed during the course of discussion that Bulgaria and Servia held identical opinions on the subject, and afull understanding was reached between the twocountries in regard to the present situation. Both countries are determined 'to preserve the peace, and no one in Belgrade believes there will be a Turko-Greek war or serious disturbances in Macedonia. The few battalions of Turkish troops sent to the S'ervian frontier were dispatched there in consequence of a demand from Bel- grade." .

Berlin, March 23.——The ceremonies at- tending the celebration of the centenary of the birth of Emperor William I, grandfather of the present emperor, which began yesterday, were continued today. Early this morning the em- peror and empress made a visit to the mausoleum of William 1. Thousands of people lined the Feststrasse, which was brilliantly decorated from the eas— The em— spent 3. turned to Berlin soon after 9 o’clock. The weather was cloudy, but no’rain fell. At 9 o'clock the troops, decorated with thenew memorial medal, and detach- ments of sailors took up the positions assigned to them on Unter den Linden, and at about 10:30 a. m. the emperor, in the uniform of the Garde du Corps, arrived and was welcomed with enthu- siasm. The two eldest princes had pre— viously joined the bodyguard company of the First regiment of guards. After riding in front of the troops the em- peror halted before his ’late grandfa- ther’s palace and ordered the flags and standards, which had been decorated with branches of laurel, to be brought out. He then rode at the head of the colors and led the troops ,to Festival square. The monument was unveiled at 11:30 a. m., according to the programme drawn up under the personal super- vision Of the emperor. The royal per- sonages were beneath a magnificent tent, with embroidered hangings, erect- ed in front of the main portal of the Schloss, facing the monument. They included the empress and Empress Dowager Frederick,'the kings of Sax- ony and Wurttemburg, the prince re— gent of Bavaria. the grand duke of Baden, the grand duke of Hesse and others. Adjoining this tent on both sides were grand stands for the privileged specta- tors, about 3,000 persons, comprising the suits of the princes, the chancellor and all the dignitaries of the empire, includ- ing the bundesrath, the presiding offi- cers of the reichstag and diet, the gen— erals and admirals, the rectors of the universities, the mayors of Berlin, Pots- dam, Spandau and Charlottesburg and the honorary guests. GHASTLY PLOTSAM. Another of the St. Nazaire’s Boats Con- taining Six Corpses Picked Up. New York, March 23.—A boat of the Ville de St. Nazaire was picked up by the steamer Creole, which arrived to- day from New Orleans. tained six dead bodies. No one of the rescued men who ar- rived here on Wednesday last has been able to say how many persons were in each of the small boats from the St. Nazaire, but as the other boats were much smaller than the long boat taken up by the schooner Hilda, which con- tained 37 persons, the remaining 45 on the St. Nazaire were, it is assumed, equally divided among the three boats. This seems more than likely as the Yanariva signaled to the Kaiser Wil- helm that she had 16 of the survivors the day the four survivors were land- ed from the schooner Hilda. As the long boat had four bodies on it when picked up, the survivors lacking strength to put them overboard, it seems likely that the boat picked up by the Creole contained originally more than the six. This leaves one more boat to be ac- counted for. The relatives of the, pee. ple on board of the St. Nazaire will have to wait at least a week for the arrival of the Yanariva at Glasgow to find out the names of the 16 who have been saved. The survivors of the wrecked steamer St. Nazaire who were brought to this port are having a hard struggle to re- gain their health. Captain Berri, Sur~ geon Maire and Engineer Sauts are still confined to their rooms in the Hotel Martin. Their condition'this morning was somewhat improved. They cannot be seen or spoken to yet, but the clerk of the hotel said today that the three men now partake of food with evident relish. Their arms and legs are not so much swollen as they were, and they are able to move about their rooms, be- ing no longer kept to their beds. Progress is also reported in the condi- tion of the surviving passenger, Juan Tejada. He is still at the home of a friend, Pedro Orti, at 260 West Twenty- fourth street. He was markedly better this forenoon. Senator Quay and a Panther. St. Lucie, Fla, March 23.-Senator Quay had an eXCiting adventure with a panther here. Accompanied by his guide, he was returning home with a fine tarpon, when, with an unearthly scream, a big panther dropped from an overhanging oak on the bearers Of the fish. The senator used his revolver, and the guide. a heavy club and knife. Aft- er a short, sharp struggle the animal was dispatched. A liIichigan Town Submerged. Midland, Mich, March 23.—The Titta- bawassie and Chippewa rivers have overflowed, and the water is higher than it has been for 15 years. Consid- erable damage is being done and much lumber and other property is being lost. The whole eastern portion of the town is submerged. About 20-families have been removed. A Roadhouse Burned. Cranford, N. J., March 23.—Michael Heuber’s roadhouse, on the county road at Garwood, was destroyed by fire to- day. The inmates escaped in their night clothes.

SHE MAY DONATE $1,800,000. Ex-‘Minister ‘Straus \Vill Probably Be the Almoner, Although He W'ill Say 'Noth— ing About It. —- The Baroness’ Generosity Commended. New «York, March 24,—Mr. Oscar S. ; Straus, minister to Turkey during Mr. ‘ Cleveland’s first administratiom has just returned from Europe, and coinci- dent with his arrival there comes the story that the Baroness de Hirsch is contemplating the donation of a large amount of money to the fund establish- ed by her late husband. Mr. Straus is one of the trustees of the fund in this country, and while abroad called upon the baroness in his fiduciary capacity and also as a friend. ‘When Mr. Straus was asked today if it were true that the Baron de Hirsch fund is to be largely augmented, he re- 4 plied that he was not in a position just yet to speak about the matter. “I do not know,” he went on, “how the report got out. I certainly have said nothing about it, and I am not prepared to either confirm or deny the report. Yes,I did- see Baroness de Hirsch, whom I have known for a long time, and I am more than ever impressed with her splendid ability and her munificent charity. She is One of the grandest women, that ever lived, and her capacity for work and grasp ,of large affairs and details are extraordinary.” “Is it true,” he was asked, “that the sum contemplated to be given to the De Hirsch fund in this country is $1,800,— 000?” \ ’ "It would possibly work harm to a great many deserving people if I were to speak about that matter. I deserve no credit whatever for what the baron- ess has done, and as this is not a per- sonal matter my lips must be sealed. Further Gifts Likely. “Oh, yes,” smilingly replied Mr. Straus to another question, “the re- port that she will give a large sum to the fund looks probable. Her splendid charities are the warrant for that, but in view of the condition of things at present, any discussion of her projects and plans by me would be inappropri- ate.” Mr. Strausz manner and his answers to questions were amply indicative of the truth of the report. The sum of 81,- 800,000, which, it is said, will be added by the baronesstc the large amount d0- nated by the 1a‘.e Baron de Hirsch for the betterment of the condition of Jews in this country, is to be apportioned among three or more projects. One mil- lion dollars,‘ the story goes, is to be de- voted to new projects of a charitable nature, which will be a radical depar- tIire from the old channels of eleemosy- nary work. - lThemit is said, that the Educational Al"anc_e, in which the late baron was vex v much interested, will be benefited by “$100,000. The distribution of the re‘ maining $700,000 will be on equally ef- fective lines, the precise nature of which is like the entire benevolent scheme, in a preliminary stage only. Baron de Hirsch died at Pressburg, Hungary, April 20, 1896, leaving about $130,000,000, which he had accumulated by railroad building on the continent of Europe and by marvelous business enterprise and acumen. “He was an in- timate friend of the Prince of Wales, and, while unostentatious, was one of the most noted men in Europe. A \Vonderful Philanthropist. His charity assumed the character of magnificence, and his work for the amelioration of the Russian, Austrian- and other Jews will be a perpetual me- morial of the man. His widow was a worthy helpmeet to the great benefac- tor, and she continued the dispensa- tion of the immense wealth he accumu— lated in the same and similar direc- tions laid down by him. The couple were childless, but an adopted son, Ar- nold de Forest, who is reputed to be worth $15,000,000 in his own right, is now settled in New Orleans, becoming an American citizen to escape army service abroad. In 1892 Baron de Hirsch gave $2,500,- 000 for the benefit of Russian Jew im- migrants to the United States, to be used for “their assistance, education, Americanization and support after landing.” The principal settlement in this country established with this fund is at Woodbine, Cape May county, N. J., where 5,100 acres of land are now under cultivation by the grateful bene- ficiaries. Only last November these now contented people dedicated the handsome synagogue they built to the memory of the man who knocked the shackles of- Russian oppression from their wrists and ankles and made them a free and prosperous colony. General Polavieja Resigns. London, March 24.—The Standard publishes a dispatch from Madrid which says that General Polavieja, who succeeded General Blanco in command of the‘Spanish forces.in the Philippine islands, has again tendered his resig— nation, which has been accepted.

ONE DOCTOR TO BE HANGED. Many Deaths Reported From the Same Town In Mississippi—Series of Poi- sonings Alleged' to Have Been Planned—Persons Involved. New York, March 23.—Murder after murder to defraud the life insurance com- panies as, the result of aplot- involving prominent persons of Scooba, near Merid- ian, Miss, is the startling suggestion of a report made today by Charles F. Harper, supervisor of a life association. The conviction of Dr. W. H. Lipscomb, an old and prominent practitioner, once a, medical examiner of an insurance company of New York, for the poisoning of C. T. Stuart in Scooba has led to an investiga- tion by inspectors of ten insurance com- panies which has already brought to light a remarkable series of deaths and attempt- ed poisonings in Mississippi. The chain of remarkable instances which Mr. Harper’s investigations have disclosed hint at more arrests of conspirators. The Mutual Reserve fund has suffered greater losses than the New York Life, the Equitable of New York or the Mutual Benefit Life of Newark; but, according to Mallarper, it is impossible to say to what extent ilvcse companies would have suffer- e'l or how many innocent persons might have been murdered had it not been for the fatal suspicion against Dr. Lipscomb. 50 successful had the plot become during a period of years, beginning in 1892, that it iszclaimed that Dr. Lipscomb had grown ~careless in the practice of insuring poor people and murdering them at his leisure. It was shown in the trial that C. T. Stuart had been insured in the Mutual Reserve fund for 810,000, Mutual Benefit of Newark for $10,000 and New York Life for $1,000. ‘ All of these policies were presented for payment by Guy Jack, a wealthy merchant of De Kalb, who is now under arrest, awaiting trial as an accomplice to the murder. Stuart went; to Dr. Lipscomb to be treated for some slight indisposition. The physician wrote him a prescription that called for a small percentage of strych- nine. This was perfectly regular. Instead of filling the prescription at his own dispensary. as was his custom, the' doctor took it to a druggist and received the medicine in three pills. He substituted for these one large pill containing 1% ounces of strychnine. Stuart took the medicine and died in great agony. Death Sentence For Lipscomb. Dr. Lipscomb tried to throw the blame upon the druggist, of course, showing that the dose as called for in the prescription was harmless. Dr. Lipscomb has been sentenced to hang on May 12 next. The Evening Journal today publishes the above and adds: Inquiries by one of our reporters among the insurance com- panies have brought out the following pe- culiar facts: In 1892 a policy for $5,000 was issued by tho Equitable on the life of Mrs. A. V. Hardin, a poor widow, living in Scooba, Miss. The beneficiary . was A. A. Ham- mack. and Dr. W. H. Lipscomb’s name appeared as the examining physician. Mrs. Hardin now claims that she knew nothing Whatever of the existence of the policy until last fall, when notified by the company that the assessment would be due at a certain time. She swears that her signature to the application was a for- gery and that she was never examined by Dr. Lipscomb or any other examiner. Guy Jack came to New York and made a. settlement with the company, receiving $1,200 upon cantellation of the policy. About four years ago, the life of W. .H. Eaves was heavily insured in the Equitable and’the New York Life. H. Rosenbaum, a merchant of Scooba, was the beneficiary. Eaves was given a bottle of whisky, which made half a dozen _of_his friends deathly sick. An analysis of the whisky, made by a Mobile chemist, showed that it contained large quantities of arsenic. Rosenbaum was indicted for attempting poisoning, but the case was nolle pressed, in the absence from the state of the complaining witness. J. L. Holbro 11; was insured in the Mn- tual Reserve fund for $5,000, Guy Jack again being the beneficiary. While driving home one af‘ c“?‘.00n he took a negro into his wagon to "c a short distance. The negro sand he had been given two bottles of whisky, one for Mr. Holbrook. Thinking that the bottle intended for, the white man would contain the best whisky, the negro changed them. He drank the contents of Holbrook’s bot- tle and nearly died from poisoning. This case was never investigated by the authori- ties. * , - SEX-Judge Carpenter Dead. Hartford, March 22.—Elisha Carpenter, (ax-judge of the supreme court, died today of paralysis, aged 73. He was born in East- ford, lived on a farm, taught school and was admitted to the bar ,in 1846, became state attorney in 1851, was state senator in 1857, was chosen judge of the superior court in 1861 and held that ofi‘ice until 1865, when he was elevated to the supreme court. Fa‘tal Explosion Near Wellsvillc. Wellsville, N. Y., March 23.——Tbe Rock Glycerin company’s magazine located near this village was the scene of a terrible ex- plosion today. H. H.

Lawrence, . worst fire this city has known since the, burning of the Washington mills six years ago completely gutted the Glea- son building, 'one of the best business blocks in Lawrence, early today, and resulted in the injury of eight persons, most of whom jumped from‘the fourth and fifth stories of the Central House, and in the loss of property valued at at least $100,000. Those injured are: John Bowering, a tenant of the Gleason building, left leg injured, severe burns; Mrs. John Bow- ering, left side injured and ribs broken; Miss McKenzie, milliner, head injured, serious burns; William Gallagher, badly burned; Bernard Gallagher, over- come by smoke and seriously burned; A. S. Huntress, slight bums;- W. R. Robinson, left wrist fractured, burns, and Leon Desaultiers, face and nose out, burns. Most of those hurt are now in the hospital. but it is not expected that any deaths will result. The Gleason building was a six story stone and brick building, located on the north side of Essex street. The Central House, one of the leading hotels of the city, adjoined it on one side, and the Pedrick and Classon buildings, in which is Walsh's hotel, on the other. At 3.45 o’clock the roof of the building fell and soon the whole structure was a. mass of flames. Several explosions at about the same time added to the ex- citement. It was evident that the Glea- son building was doomed and the ef- forts of the firemen were directed to saving adjoining buildings. The roof of the Central House had already caught fire, and the Pedrick and Classon blocks on the other side were in great danger. By 6 o’clock the fire was under control. The top of the Central House was burn- ed off, but the building itself was saved. The Gleason building was owned by the Gleason heirs of Methuen, Mass., and was fully insured. One of the heav- iest losers by the fire wil.1 be Abbott & Co., who had a 5 and 10 cent store in the building. Manager Langford of this store says he was in the basement late yesterday afternoon, and before leav—. ing looked the place over carefully. He is satisfied that the fire could not have, been smoldering during the day, and that its origin cannot be easily account— ed for. The Gleason building was sup- posed to be fireproof. After the fire was under control a re~ port spread through the crowds that there were three bodies. in the ruins of the Gleason building. A careful search was begun. The police believe, howev- er, that all of the occupants of the block. escaped. Shoe Factory Burned. Danvers, Mass., March 23.-—Fire has entirely destroyed the Walter Martin Shoe factory on Clarke street. The building was owned by Sawyer & Sears. The loss'on building and stock is fully $10,000.
