first, not quite as homclike;
you’ll soon become accus-

like them ever so much bet-

rearranging the different
rooms at home.
Down stairs we have
widened the passageways
leading to the large room
adjoining the Crockery and
Silverware departments and
shall devote it to our rapidly
increasing Kitchenware trade
and the enlargement of the
Toy department. The Stair—
,way leading from the main
floor to basement has also
been widened. -
While you have been intent
upon your buying we have
been busy studying your
convenience. In a day or
two at’the farthest the entire
institution will be thrown
open for your inspection, and
we trust- to your favOrable
consideration.
Only a few of the N ottin g-

a rare chance to secure these

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 13.—The reply
cf the porte to the communications sent
to it after the meeting of the embassadors
yesterday was announced today. The
porte, replying to the identical notes of
the embassadors of Germany, Austria and
Italy, simply said that information re-
garding the scheme for reform in Ar-
menia would be forwarded to the repre-
sentatives of the powers “without delay.”
In other words, these three ambassadors
at least have obtained no satisfaction at
all. It is not yet known if the notes ‘of
the embassadors of Great Britain, Russia
and France have been replied to, but it is
presumed that they were also assured that
their requests for information regarding
the proposed reforms would be complied
with “without delay. ”
A Display of Force.
It was stated this afternoon in European
official circles here that, as a. result of an
additional exchange of views between the
powers, through their representatives here
and at the different capitals, it is believed
that a joint course of action, involving a
display of naval and possibly of military
force, has already been decided upon,-with
the view of restoring order in Armenia,
recent events having clearly demonstrated
that the sultan has no intention of really
carrying out the scheme for reform agreed
upon some time ago. Nothing definite
appears to be known regarding the course
decided upon, but the sultan is not likely
to be allowed to trifle with the ambassa-
dors many days longer. News of an im-
portant nature is expected at any mo-
ment.
A prominent member of the diplomatic
corps was quoted today as saying that
“the end of all this wretched business is
fast approaching,” and this is the view
taken now of the situation by Europeans
generally. It is reported that the powers
have decided that further “identical
notes, ” orother similar communications,
are useless, and that only prompt and
efficient military action is likely to have
any results. '
The rumors persistently circulated for
many weeks past as to the probability
that the sultan will be deposed were re-
peated on all sides today and may have
been revived by some statement on the
subject having been overheard at one of
the embassies.
The Financial Situation.
The financial situation here continues
to be unsatisfactory in spite of the efforts
of the Imperial bank to bolster up the
finances of the Turkish empire. Bourse
business here is almost suspended, and
this state of affairs is expected to continue
until the European powers demonstrate
to the sultan in the only manner that he
is capable of understanding that the peace
of Europe can no longer be allowed to be
endangered by the cruelty and incompe-
tency of Turkish officials.
Surprise is expressed, even by the diplo-
mats of this city, who expect almost any-
thing from the ports, at the action of the
sultan in sanctioning the official note is-
sued yesterday expressing the sultan’s
thanks for the “energetic measures taken
by the imperial authorities” in suppress-
ing the disturbances in Asia Minor, as-
serting that “order has now been restored
in all the districts recently the scene of
riots and conflicts,” and that “precau-
tions have been taken to insure the main-
tenance of order.” This really looks like
mocking the ambassadors and is on a par
with the snub administered by the sultan
to Great Britain in decorating Bahri Pasha
and giving him the command of the
troops going to Zeitun after he had been
removed from a governorship at the in-
~stance of the British embassador fqr ill
treatment of Armenians.
As . to order being restored in the dis-
turbed districts, it need only be said that
the mobilization of about 150,000 troops
to be sent to these districts is progressing
as actively as the Turkish government
can posh such an undertaking, hampered
as it is by lack of funds and the incom-
petency of-its officials.
The Outlook Grows Darker.
The outlook grows darker every day.
Advices received here today announce
fresh riots at Marash, Bitlis and Siwas,
with their attendant massacres.
It is announced that a battalion of
Turkish troops which was, in garrison at
Zeitun, and which recently distinguished
itself by surrounding and shooting down
‘a number of Armenian insurgents, was
liter besieged in its barracks bythe Ar-
menians, to whom the soldiers eventually
capitulated, with arms, ammunition and
supplies. The Armenians now occupy the
quarters at Zeitun previously occupied by
the soldiery. The Armenians have also
garrisoned ail‘the important positions in
and about Zeitun and are gathering am-
munition and provisions, throwing up oth-
er fortifications and in every way prepar-
ing to hold the place. Zeitun is on the
route from Arabgheer to Aleppo and is an
important iron mining center.
Considerable anxiety is felt in Ameri-
can circles here on accOunt of the absence
of news from the districts where the
American missionaries were stationed,
telegraphed to Commissioner Darnham at
Harput asking him if the American mis~
sion there is safe.
According to advices today from Had-
jin, several villages in that vicinity have
been attacked by rioters, who killed the
inhabitants and plundered their property.
It is feared that the disturbances will
spread to Hadjin.
From all accounts received here of the
recent massacre at Dairbekir the blood-
shed must have been terrible. A large
part of thefitown was burned.
and United States Minister Terrell has
~r
Further Mobilization.
The government decided to mobilize an-
other 20 battalions of redifs, or reserves,
which will make (30 battalions mobilized
thus far. It is understood that these
troops are intended to occupy certain
strategic points in Asiatic Turkey, from
each of which flying columns will be sent
out into the surrounding country to at-
tempt the suppression of the constantly
occurring riots and massacres.
The Turkish government is evidently
greatly alarmed at the regularity and per-
sistence of the outbreaks in Asia Minor,
and the ministers ' claim to believe that
they are due to the influence of the for-
eigners. This does not tend to make the
position of foreigners in Armenia or else-
where any more secure.
The Sultan Is Alarmed.
LONDON, Nov. 13.-—A dispatch to The
Standard l‘rom Constantinople says that
the sultan is alarmed because of the pres.
ent critical state of affairs. From Arabia,
the most vulnerable point of the Turkish
empire, news has arrived of a conflict be-
tween the Turkish troops and the Arabs,
near Senha, in which 30 persons were
killed. 'Despite the reports of trouble in
the Arabian provinces, the last detach-
ment of troofi sent to. Arabia was de«
tained five days at Port Said for lack of
money to pay canal dues.
A dispatch to The Times from Con-
stantinople says that reports have been
received there of the new disturbances at
Mush. The British embassy at Constan-
tinople is in possession of these reports,
but so far no details have been received.
The Times publishes a letter from Con-
stantinople explaining the situation
throughout the Turkish empire. The
writer says that owing to the rigid cen-
sorship exercised by Turkish officials the
lower classes among the Turks are quite
ignorant.
, Hate the Armenians.
They believe that the sultan inaugu-
rated the policy of oppression, but to some
extent it is stated that the Armenians be-
lieve the contrary. The Turks think the
Armenians will be treated as they were
20 years ago, and beside this they enter-
tain the idea that the Armenians are un-
grateful. Thus a feeling of hatred toward
the Armenians prevails, and the ignorant
Turks really appear to fear being massa—
cred by the Armenians. The government
officials, according to this letter, are di-
rectly responsible for disseminating the
idea that it is the duty‘ of the people to
kill and plunder the Armenians: _There
is no reasonable hope that an improve-
ment will take place through a change of
public opinion. Turks and Christians
alike seem doomed to endure such scenes
of unspeakable suffering as marked the
Roman empire.
‘ A dispatch to The Times from Constan-
tinople says that Kiamil Pasha, just ap-
pointed to the post of vali of Aidin, after
having raised strenuous objections to the
representatives of foreign governments be-
cause of his appointment to the undesira- .
ble position of rail of Aleppo is still very
ill. He was suffering severely when he
embarked on the steamer ordered to take
him to Smyrna by the Turkish govern-
ment, but members of his family reeeived
significant hints that it would be advisa-
ble for him to depart at once. Not one of
his friends was allowed to approach the
house or the boat for the purpose of bids
ding him farewell.
IiIore \Varships For Constantinople.
PARIS, Nov. 13.—At a cabinet council
today M. Lockroy, minister ’of marine,
announced that the ironclad Devastation,
the cruisers Charner and Faucon and the
dispatch boat Linois had sailed from the
Piraeus, Greece, for Constantinople.
llInrmon Elders Ejected.
ASHLAXD, Ky, Nov. l3.——A report from
White Post states that two Mormon elders
were taken from a church there and rid~
den out of the state on rails. The elders,
who have been at work in West Virginia
for some time, crossed Tug river in defi.
ance of the warnings of the farmers and
were exhorting alarge congregation to ac-
cept the Mormon faith, when they were
assailed.
T‘nc Cuban Rebellion.
WASHINGTON, Nov. ill—The govern-
ment authorities at Madrid have sent. out
official confirmation of the reported minor
engagements which took place in Cuba
the latter part of last week. The recent
activity of the insurgents is due to their
efforts to cripple the sugar industry at the
time when the work is beginning. Those
efforts have failed.
Alleged Seizures of Sealers.
'OTTAWA, Nov. 1'33. ——The government
has received no advices of seizures by
Russians of any Canadian sealing vessels
in Okhotsk sea. If any are in custody, as
reported, they must be American, as all
Canadian vessels are either at home or
wintering in Japan. Moreover, Okhotsk
sea is. not a famous sealing ground.

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.—Miss Pauline
Whitney, daughter of William 0. Whitney,
tax-secretary of the navy, was wedded at
noon today to Almeric'Hugh Paget in the
Protestant Episcopal church of St. Thom.
as in the presence of a distinguished as-
semblage, which included the president
of ”the United States, the secretary of the
navy, the secretary of war and members
of the diplomatic corps, among whom
were Sir Julian Pauncefote, Lord West-
meath and Mavroyeni Bey. Mrs. Cleve-
land had been expected, but was unable
to attend the ceremony, much to her re-
gret.
The church was as elaborately and
beautifully adorned with flowers as it Was
on the occasion of the Marlborough-Van-
derbilt nuptials. The musical pact of the
service was magnificent. The organ was
in charge of Dr. George W. Warren, and
there was a string orchestra directed by
Nahan Franko. While the instrumental
music was beautifully rendered it was
MR. AND MRS. ALMERIC HUGH PAGET.
clear that the majority of the wedding
guests were intensely interested in the
vocal music, in which the principal fig-
ures were Mme. Nordica and Edouard (lo
Reszke. In addition to'these famous
artists, there was Herr Frank Ondricek,
the violinist who is to make his debut at
the first Philharmonic concert. Gerald
Paget, brother of the bridegroom, was
best man. The ushers were Goold Hoyt,
John C. Furman,“H. Maitland Kersey,
William Cutting, Winthrop Rutherfurd,
Jared HOWe, Crawford Livingstone and
Harry Payne Whitney.
Man and Wife.
The arrangement of the bridal proces-
sion was very much after the fashion of
the Marlborough weddzng, with the ex-
ception of the addition of the lovely little
flower girls. The ushers led the way to
the altar, fellowed by the four little girls
with their heaped up baskets of roses.
After them came the bridesmaids, and
then Mr. Paget and Miss Whitney. As
soon as the ceremony was completed the
chimes began to peal, and the bride and
bridegroom passed down the aisle and out
of the church to their carriage.
:3, To the inartistic eye the bridal gown
probably did not appeal as strongly as did
some of the many beautiful costumes in
the brilliant assemblage in the body of
the church, but to one who could appreci-
ate the skill and exquisite taste of one of
Worth’s creations it was a dream of love-
liness. The material was of the heaviest
white satin, and the skirt fell in a long
train. It was trimmed in front with a
vllonnce of lace so delicate that it looked
like spider web, and the corsage was high.
The sleeves were puffed out from shoulder
to elbow, and from elbow to wrist they
clung closely to the shape of the arm.
Around the bride’s neck was a collar of
point angletcrre, the lace falling over the
sleeves. Through the lace on the skirt
were fastened garlands of small roses and
empire knots. The flouncc was over a
full chiifon frilling and did not lie direct-
ly on the satin. A long train of orange
blossoms fell over the waist and skirt on
the left side.
Beautiful Bridesmaids.
The bridesmaids—Miss Emily Vander-
bilt Sloane, Miss Gertrude Vanderbilt,
Miss Beatrice Bend, Miss Barney, Miss
Dimmock and Miss Edith Blake Brown—
made a beautiful and attractive picture.
The gowns they wore were selected for
them by Miss Brown in Paris. They were
made especially to suit the general style
and complexion of the Wearers. Miss
Brown’s own costume was a pale green
moire poplin, with a perfectly plain skirt,
fastened at the left side with three silver
and pale green clasps. There were five
plaits at the back of the skirt, and the
bottom was edged with sable. The waist
was caught at the side with flat silver
clasps, and there were lace and sable bands
on the front. The elbow sleeves were full
and drooping and, slashed with three lace
insertions. The collar was one shade
deeper than the gown and of the same
material. The Elizabethan ruff of plaitcd
gauze and fur i’iared out fully four inches
from the "ruler.
