Governor General Watched Slaughter at Mal-ash and Made No Attempt to In- . terfere—Feeling of them!- ness In Constantinople. PARIS, Nov. 23. -—A dispatch to Le Matin from Constantinople says 20 'vil- lages northwest of Aleppo have been burned and their inhabitants massacred. The massacre at Marash, the dispatch says, took place in the presence of the Turkish governor general, who did not interfere. Upward of 300 persons were killed. The Kurds, according to the dispatch, are gathering upon the Euphrates and preparing to march into Syria for the pur- pose of massacring Christians. Unrest In Constantinople. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 2 .—The gen- eral situation continues to inspire grave fears. Telegrams received here from Ma- rash, apparently considerably delayed by the Turkish officials, say that the Ameri- can and other missionaries there are again in peril. In view of the repeated assur- ances which United States Minister Ter- rell has received from the porte, this has caused much anxiety. The missionaries begged Mr. Terrell to do everything possi- ble to save them and not to trust too much to mere premises from the porte. . Thereupon Mr. Terrell and Michael Herbert, the British~ charge d’ai‘faires, went Immediately to the porte and de- manded in positive terms that prompt and efi'ective measures be taken to protect the missionaries’ liv.s and property and also that safe conduc s and escorts be furnish- ed to the American and other mission- aries leaving Kharput and Bitlis. The porte immediately promised to take the steps which Messrs. Terrell and Herbert considered necessary, and the endangered missionaries Were so advised. Adviées received here from Siwas assert that as soon as the re-enforcements of the Turkish troops arrive there the Turkish officials Will notify the Armenians that they must surrender all the arms and am- munition in their possession. The Arme- nians consider this to be particularly se- vere and unjust, as it places them at the mercy of the Turks, who can rise and slaughter them at will if they are without any means of defense. To this the Turks reply that no harm will be done them so long as they do not resist the authorities and that if they refuse to give up their arms they will be ferccd to do so at any cost. The Turkish officials assert that if the quantity of arms and ammunition surrendered does not satisfy them the troops will be ordered to attack the Arme- nians. ,. ‘ More Bloodshed Inevitable. Under these conditions it is difficult to see how further bloodshed can be avoided. Members of the diplomatic corps point to the fact that, as the Mussulmans of Siwas are not to be disarmed, the projected meas~ ures against the Armenians create a new danger which may have very grave conse- quences. The concentration of Turkish troops at Marash, 15 miles from. Zeitun, continues as rapidly as possible. Infantry, cavalry and artillery are being hurried to that place, and every efl'ort is making to com— plete the concentration and advance upon Zeitun before winter weather makes the rough roads almost impassable for troops. While this massing of soldiers continues the Turkish commander at Marash con- tinues his negotiations with the Arms- nians of Zeitun, holding out all sorts of promises for their surrender, but the Ar- menians have been so frequently deceived that they apprehend nothing less than a Whol’esale massacre if they lay down their arms. The representatives 'cf the powers take the same view of the case, and have notified the porte that they will not an- swor for the consequences if the Zeitun Armenians are massacred. The exact situation at Zeitun has not been allowed to be known here officially. It is learned, however, that a large num- ber of Armenians are in arms there, that they have built and are still building de- fensive works, and have been strongly re- enforced from various directions. Some reports say that 5,000 or more Armenians are in the field there. If they hold out until the Winter really sets in, it looks as if the Turks will have some hard fighting to do before they reduce the enemy to subjection. But, although the Armenians are understood to have a fair supply of rifles, ammunition and provisions, they are not known to have any artillery be- yond a few old fashioned pieces which be- longed to the Turkish garrison when that place was captured; . An Alarming Outlook. _, ‘ The Armenians of this city who can be prevailed upon to talk on the subject inti- ‘mate that . a surprise for the Turks is in preparation at Zeitun and that a. battle which will show that the Armenians are .entitled to freedom, or at least to self gov- ernment, will be fought there. This may be an exaggeration, but it is the view of the situation which is taken by the Arms- nian revolutionists, and they are undoubt- edly sending money, arms, ammunition, provisions and men to Zeitun as fast as possible. They are laboring under the same difficulties of roads and weather as the Turks. The general opinion here, however, is that the Turks will recapture Zeitun and that the Armenians will pay a terrible price for their short possession. Rumors of fresh troubles have also reached here from Samsun, a seaport of Asia Minor on the Black sea. lation there is almost entirely composed of Turks, and the-few Armenians are, cer- tain to fare badly if disturbances have really occurred. . Probably‘tho most serious feature of the present situation is that resulting from' the demand which the representatives of Great Britain, Russia, Italy and Austria have made to the sultan for firmans al- lowing the passage through the Darda- nelles to this city of a second dispatch boat. The popu- ' Ncrwalk, Conn.

It was at first believed that there would be no difficulty in persuading the sultan to grant the necessary permission, but it is now inti- mated at the palaca that he may decline to grant these requests. Should this real- ly be the case, the situation Will again become strained, as the powers consider that an increase of the number of foreign‘ gunbcats in the Bcspcrus is absolutely necessary for the safety of foreigners in this vicinity, and they may take steps to send the additional vessels here without the sultan’s permission. ‘ Fatal Fire In Chicago. CHICAGO, Nov. $3.—Today a disastrous fire broke out in the Exchange building at Van Baron and Market streets. Sev— eral persons were injured.
