The Sultan Receives Some Advice
Which He Does Not Relish. '
THE NEW MINISTRY’S TASK.
The Outlook Is Decidedly Discouraging.
Armenians, Goaded to Desperation,
Assume the Offensive and Are
Censured For It.
LONDON, Nov. 9.——In spite of the fact
that Sir Edgar Vincent, governor of the
Imperial Ottoman bank at Constantino-
ple, has succeeded in bettering the finan-
cial condition of Turkey by suspending
, for a month the payment of gold for bank
notes it is believed only momentary relief
will be afforded, and that, together with
the change of ministry at Constantinople,
it will have little effect.
The latest review of the situation from
Constantinople came today in a dispatch
to The Times as follows:'
“The cgndition of things here is regard-
ed as unbearable by all the diplomats, and
the sultan, whose sole idea of policy is to
play oil one pOWer against the other, is
nonplused at their unanimity. All the
pctVers are friendly, and they give him
sound but most distasteful counsel. None
of their manifestations has any selfish
purpose. Among the advice tendered him
much bears u on the insecurity of the
capital, as evi enced by September’s riots,
which left the Mohammedans in a state
of unprecedented excitement. But the
remedy suggested is an increased number
of spies, arrests or secret executions, and
therefore the advice of the powers does
not meet with response. Much also has
been said about the bloodshed in the prov-
inces and the enormous detriment to
trade in the greater part of Asia Minor
and Syria. But the only answer is the
annihilation of the reform scheme by the
appointment of the palace creatures to
’3?) board of control, of which one of them
i president. Nowhere, however, are fears
entertained of any wholesale fanatical
outbreak against the Christians. The
danger lies quite in another direction. ”
Said Pasha’s “Defense.”
‘ The Constantinople correspondent of
The Standard sends an interview with
Said Pasha in which he says that he could
not claim that the Turkish administration
Was snow white, but it was certainly not
as black as it was painted. The minis-
ters, he said, were working hard to carry
out the scheme of reform and counted
upon England’s generosity not to increase
the difficulties by encouraging the revolu-
tionary Armenians, who, instead Of being
grateful for the concessions that had been
made, Were in open revolt throughout
Asia. A dispatch to The Standard from
Vienna says that it is believed that the
changes in the Turkish ministry are in-
tended to appease Mohammedan disaffec-
tion and are not a demonstration against
England, although Kiamil Pasha, the
outgoing grand vizier, was the most pro.
English of the pashas.
The Daily News Constantinople corre-
spondent, whose sympathies lean toward
the Armenian side, admits that the Mos-
lem attacks have aroused such a spirit of
Opposition and despair among the Arme—
nians that instead of allowing themselves
to be killed quietly, as at Trebizond and
Akhissar, the Armenians themselves com-
menced the attack at Zeitcun, Erzerum
and elsewhere, besides making ill advised
and mischievous demonstrations in Con—
stantinople. “It will take years, ” this cor-
respondent continues, “to revive confi-
dence and trade and commerce lost through
the present condition of anarchy, due to
the deplorable weakness and inaction of
the government.”
Terrell’s Troubles.
As an instance of this, the correspond-
ent cites the fact that United States Min-
ister Terrell has been trying for two
months to obtain permission for United
States Consul Poche at Aleppo to see an
American citizen of Armenian origin who
has been sent to prison there for life. He
. has secured orders from two grand viziers
to the local authorities at Aleppo to grant
this permission, which has either been re-
scinded before the consul had an oppor-
tunity to act upon it or has been disobey-
ed by the local governor, the desired result
being evaded rather than refused. “This
is the more remarkable,” The Daily News
correspondent observes, “because Mr. Ter-
rell has considerable personal influence at
the porte. ” Yet now, after demanding the
dismissal of the yell at Aleppo, or that the
porte itself should assume responsibility
for refusal, he has only succeeded in get-
ting an order for the prisoner to be brought
here. The retiring grand vizier has been
appointed veil of Aleppo, to succeed the
Official who has held that place during
Mr. Terrell’s efforts to secure an inter-
view with the prisoner.
The only hopeful sign in the outlook,
according to the opinion of The Daily
News correspondent, is the report that the
troops at Erzerum, under Shakir Pasha,
high commissioner to enforce the Arme-
nian reforms, have attacked a Moslem
mob, which had formed with a purpose of
doing mischief to the Armenians. “If this
is confirmed,” the correspondent thinks,
“it will show that Turkey really desires
that the massacres shall ”cease.” .
A cipher letter received from Erzing-
hian, the headquarters of the notorious
Zekki Pasha, commander of the troops at.
the time of the Sassoon massacres, states
that 2,000 Armenians have been killed,
during the late disturbances.
from its correspondent there says that he
hears that unless there is an amelioration
in the condition of affairs Russia will oc-
cupy Armenia~siinultaneous1y with the
holding of the European conference.
Ilfiery Pingree’s Latest. _
DETROIT, Nov. 9.—-Mayor Pingree has
sent a communication to the council fa-
voring the abrogation 'of that portion of the
treaty between Great Britain and. the
United States which prevents building
warships on the lakes. The document is
more glngery than the average state pa-
per, and in it are rehearsed the story of
Perry’s victory and the history of more
recent Warllke episodes pp“ the lakes.

HANNIGAN’S RBSPITB.
His Trial For Killing Solomon H. Mann
’7 Adjourned Until Monday.
NEW YORK, Nov. 9.—The trial of David
F. Hannigan for themurder of Solomon
H. Mann, which has attracted so much
attention for the past two weeks, was not
resumed today in the court of oyer and
terminer for the reasouthat Justice In-
graham has business connected with the
supreme court which must be attended to.
The trial will be resumed Monday and
will doubtless continue for fully a Week
from that date. ~
The examination of William Hannigan,
the aged father of the' defendant, which
resulted perhaps in the most important
testimony for the defense so far brought
out, will be reéumed Monday. 7
,The old man is what lawyers call “a
magnificent witness.” His story was
graphic, impressive and carried conviction
of absolute truth with every word. At
times the old man was much affected by
his own recital, and even the jurymen
were moved to tears. ~ .
' Monday he will tell of the identification
of Mann by the dying daughter, Loretta
Hannigan, and of the attempt of David to
shoot Mann at that time.
Then the defendant’s mother and later V
his wife will be called. After that testi-
mony is in the battle royal of the experts
will begin and probably last for three or
four days.
This fight will, so far as can be judged
at this time, be a bitter one, and when it
is over the jury will have as knotty a
problem to crack as has ever been put be?

i A MATRIMONIAL TANGLE.
A Combination of Marriages and Children
Worthy of Williamsburg.
BROOKLYN, Nov. 9.—Charles Marshan
of 58 Delmonico place, Williamsburg, was
accused of assault in the Lee Avenue po-
lice court today by his wife Mary: The
couple were married about a year ago.
Marshan was a widower. He had been
married twice before, and each wife bore
children. Mrs. Marshan had also been
twice a widow. Her first husband had
been four times married. When Marshan
and she were married, all the stepchildren
—and there were many of them—lived
with them. _
Everything Went along well until re-
cently, when there were frequent quarrels
between Marshan and his wife about the
children. Marshan. it is alleged, struck
the Woman, and she threatened to leave
him.. They patched up their dificrences,
and all went well until Wednesday, when,
it was charged, Marshan struck her again.
She had him arrested on a warrant this
morning, and when he was arraigned in
court he denied the charge. Mrs. Marshan
was not inclined to prosecute him. and the
case was adjourned.

THE on gun DYING
Allen G. Thurman Is Believed toiilc
- Approaching the End.
A' SLIGHT FALL THE CAUSE.
One of Ohio’s Strongest Characters—Judge
and Senator and Unsuccessful Gu-
bernatorial and Vice Presi-
dential Candidate.
COLUMBUS, 0., Nov. 9. —-On Friday
evening last Judge Thurman had‘afall
which resulted in a serious injury to his
hip. No bones being broken and his
constitution being so wonderfully strong
led to the belief that he would soon re-
gain his accustomed health. The efl'ect
of the nervous shock soon appeared to
have passed away, and Tuesday and
Wednesday he had improved so much that
his physicians and friends thought he
would undoubtedly get up again in a
short time. Yesterday, however, a seVere
relapse occurred, and there is today but
little hope that-he can recover. His vig-

it. This information comes from mem-
bers of the family. .
Mr. Thurman was alone in his parlor
when he fell. He thought he was strong
enough to walk to the library and back to
his chair. In returning to his chair he
fell. ’
Mfr. Thurman’s Career.
Allen G. Thurman was born in Lynch-
burg, Va, NO. 13, 1813. His father was
a schoolteacher at the time and his
grandfather a Baptist clergyman, who
from motives of conscience freed all his
slaves.
Six years after Allen’s birth the Thur-
man family movcd to Ohio, where his
uncle, William Allen, was afterward gov-
ernor of the state. Young Thurman
graduated at Chillicothe academy at the
age of 18 and studied law.
He was admitted to the bar in 1835.
’ Nine years later he was elected a member
of the Twenty-ninth congress and in 1851
was made judge of the supreme court of
Ohio.
From 1854 to 1856 he was chief justice.
He was a strong Jackson Democrat and
in 1867 was induced to run on the Demo-
cratic ticket for governor of Ohio.
Although he polled 35,000 more votes
than had over before been given to a
Democratic candidate for the same office
in that state, he was defeated, his suc-
cessful opponent being Rutherford B.
Hayes. Eight years later his uncle, Wil-
liam Allen, was defeated for the governor-
ship by Hairs.
Not dismounted by his defeat, Thur-
man was a mint ’IilC for the limited States
senate two years later and was elected as
Benjamin ill. Wade's successoi‘.
Thurman’s 1:3 yours’ service as senator
ended in 18:51. His most famous act
while there was his brave and successful
fight to force the Pacific railroad corpora-
tion to keep its word to the government.
In 1888 be was nominated for vice pres!
ident of the United Slates, but he and
Cleveland were beaten by Harrison and
Morton.
