Sayville L I line before the regatta committee fired was a topic of almost general dis cussion in official circles That the minister is manifestly perturbed over the situation of affairs in Turkey is fully realized here His uneasiness over the presence of an American fieet in Turkish waters lest it be taken by the revolutionists as an evidence of tho American gov ernments sympathy with their cause it is thought will not be a strong enough reason for its withdrawal The administration regards it as a sacred duty to see that adequate and prompt assistance and protection should be given American interests in the disturbed districts and for this reason feels justified in having the warships sent to Turkey Contrary to expectation Chekib Eey had not arrived in Washington up to 9 oclock Sunday night and inquiry at the leading hotels failed to dis close that he had telegraphed that lie was coming A number of dis patches are awaiting his arrival here Presumably some of the dispatches are from

Leishman Explains Hov Error Came to Be Made Correc tion Relieves the Tension Wash ington Officials Now Think Diplo macy Will Be Successful WASHINGTON A decidedly new turn in the case of United States Vice Consul William Magelssen at Beyroot Syria who was reported to have been assassinated last Sunday developed Friday night when it became known that the report was incorrect and that although Mr Magelssen had been shot at he had not been injured This re port came to the State department in a dispatch from United States Minister Leishman at Constantinople who said the mistake in making the original an nouncement was due to a mistake in translating the cipher message to the minister The dispatch from Mr Leishman followed closely on the same subject which had been shown to the prominent officials of the government The dispatch of the minister was com municated to the president at once at Oyster Bay but up to a late hour nothing had been heard from him on the subject at the State department Its contents were extremely gratify ing to the officials of the government here as It relieved the situation of its extreme tension and leaves the way open for an amicable and peaceful ad justment of the incident Whether or not orders will be given calling off the proposed cruise of the European squadron to Turkish waters is a mat ter for future determination Acting Secretary Loomis declined to make public the text of Minister Leish mans dispatch tonight but he gave a summary of its contents As stated in the press dispatch it showed that Mr Magelssen had been shot at by some person at the time un known to the officials but that he had not been hit The local Turkish offi cials were prompt to express their re gret at the occurrence and were exert ing themselves to apprehend the as sassin but thus far had been unsuc cessful The ministers dispatch also said that Consul Ravendal had reported to him that some of the consuls located at Beyroot had reported to their gov ernment that the situation at that place had become exceedingly unsafe that this condition of affairs had ex isted for some time and that some thing ought to be done to relieve the tension The opinion was expressed that the attempted assassination of Mr Magelssen would probably bring matters to a focus and some effort be made to avoid further trouble Thankful That Consul Magelssen Es caped OYSTER BAY President Roose velt vas notified Friday night by a representative of the Associated Press of the incorrectness of the report that Vice Consul William C Magelssen at Beyroot Syria had been assassinated The president expressed gratifica tion that Consul Magelssen had es caped without injury from the assault of the would be murderer He an nounced however that no change would be made in the plans of this government and that the European squadron which he ordered to pro ceed immediately to Beyroot would continue to its ordered destination It can be said that the president and Secretary of State Hay both re gard it advisable in view of the pres ent state of unrest in Turkey to have American war vessels in Turk ish waters For several hours President Roose velt and Secretary of State Hay were in confidence at Sagamore Hill They discussed every suggested phase of the situation in Turkey At the con clusion of the conference Secretary Hay announced his intention of re

made on Vice Consul Magelssen was evidently premeditated the bullet missed him and he escaped un injured l DOINGS OF TURKS Evidently Intend Exterminating Bui garians LONDON According to a Sofia tel egram to the Times the Turkish re pressive measures in Macedonia have reached the utmost limits of barbar ism and it is evident that it is the intention to accomplish this by de grees the total

aged have been mas sacred indiscriminately Convoys ol prisoners dispatched to Monastir have been murdered by their escorts on the way A private letter from a foreign res ident in Monastir says even the local Tusks are disgusted and mediate as sassinating the consul in order to pro voke European intervention The insurgents are doubtless taking a terrible revenge and are executing the revolutionary program to the let ter The reported concentration of large Turkish forces in the Adrianople district at Mustafa Pasha Kisylngach and other points on the Bulgarian frontier is regarded with much appre hension in Sofia A special dispatch published this morning gives a gloomy view of the crisis in the Balkans According to reports from Constantinople a rumor was current that war had already been declared against Bulgaria It was proved to be unfounded but tho state of popular feeling is said to be such that no other issue is regarded as possible It is further stated that although the Russian squadron was withdrawn from India it continues to cruise near the Bosphorus It is reported that several Italians have been murdeded by Turks in Is mid a seaport in Asia Minor fifty three

over some statistics that were recently published about the increase of cancer in Great Britain The death rate from that disease in 1890 was sixty eight persons in every 100000 inhabitants but in 1900 it was eighty three in every 100000 Besides the ratio of deaths from cancer to those from all other causes among persons over 3o years of age was only one out of twenty in 1890 but one out ot twelve in 1900 These figures have given rise to much alarm but a con servative student of mortality says that the increased rate is probably due to the fact that vital statistics are becoming more accurate
