CONSTANTINOPLE , Nov. 20. As In
timated In these dispatches during the last
fiw diys , the attitude of the Porto or the
miltan has undergone a decided change since
the other fleets began to Join the Brltlsl
fleet In the naval demonstration In Salonlca
lay There Is no doubt that the pressure
brought to bear upon the sultnn has been
stiong enough to mnko him take persona
rharge of the work of reform In Armenia am
It IH now hoped that there will bo no further
bloodshed , except In the case of putting down
the Insurrections which have broken on
against Turkish rule In different parts ot
Asia Minor. It Is hoped , however , that the
Armenian clergy will be able to Induce their
co-rollglonlsts to lay down their arms
especially as the sentiment of the whole of
Europe Is now In favor of the sultan , whose
evident desireto meet the views uf the
powers Is thoroughly approctited and ha
undoubtedly tided over a most dllllcult crisis
in the east. There is no longer any talk of
the armed Intervention of the powers li
the Turkish empire and If any display o !
force Is necesb.iry upon the part of Kuropo
It might t > c In the direction of supporting
the authority of the sultan , as Great Britain
Russia and France are extremely desirous
that ordci should promptly bo rvstorci
throughout Asia Minor
A dispatch received hero from Tlllls
Russian Tinnsc.iucasln , sas that th °
Armenian Catholics hive reeel\ed a reply to
the1 communication which they recently Benl
to the Russian ambassador , M Denldlloff
It Is ns follows. "The Armenians c-f Con
stantinople' are now reassured Th"y are
threatened with no danger In the provinces ,
however , there are regrctable- conflicts which
In some coses were caused by the Armenians
who were Instigated by their i evolutionary
committees. The result is tetrlble revenge
upon the part of the Turks In the shape ol
honlble massacres ot Christians. The sultan
has Dvinctloned the scheme for reform sub-
milted by the tlnee great pnnets and prepar
ations are now proceellng to carry them out
To this end It Is necessary tint the leaders
of tlio people bl ould persuade the latter to
desist from revolutionary attempts , to
ah union the Idle hope of foreign Intervention
to put a btop to all disturb tnces , and to co
operate In the ie-cBtabllbhment of universal
li ? peace. In Improving the situation and In the
Introduction of the new order of things "
AMERICAN MISSIONARIES SATE.
CONSTANTINOPLE. Nov 13 ( Via Sofli.

of the powers hold a oonfercnre } eserda ! > to
discuss certain bupplementary measmes
which will be recommended to the poite for
the restoration of ordet In Abla Minor , aud
It Is understood that some form of common
action for the protection of foreigners lb Im
pending. According to the Turkish accounts
th < > Atmenlans provoked the dlstuibanco at
Maisovan and It is also said tlio Ameilcan

The concentriilng of Turkish troops at
Marash foi th ? advance upon Zcltoun , which
IH Htlll held by the Aimonlans In strong
futce , continues as actively as poislble under
the circumstances. The comm Hiding general
declares that unless the Armenians of el-
toun and HB vicinity are siibjiigited within
a foi ( night fie campaign Is likely to be
both protraclexl and difficult , as he ivy snows
and bad isads , which are to be expected boon ,
will hinder the operations of the tionps.

authorities of the places mentlonel The
Tuikti , it now appears , me really taking

Armenian refugees who have arrived hero
from the different provinces from which
they fled at the time of the recent massacre ,
hue petitioned the pitrlarch to nswlst those
of their ca-rellglonlsts who were unable to
get away , as famine Is threatening their
countiy and say thnt the most teirlblc suf
ferings may lit anticipated when the cold
weather sets In , thousands of Armenian fami
lies being without seller.
APPEAL TO EUROPE FOR AID.
The Armenians asked the patrl.itch to ap
peal to thedirfeient countries of Europe for
food , moncj anil clothing , as It seemy im
possible for the- Turkish government to do
mithing effective In the way of assisting the
dlHtrcssed people There has b.cn borne
bliarp exchange of messages recently between
the Arm-nian patrlatch , the Turkish mlnib-
leis and the foreign ambissadorH. Ihe patri
arch was deslious of calling In person upon
the grand vizier for Iho purpose of placing
eeitaln con plaints before him , and to tcndei
his t > rvlces In the work of relief and reform
But , It nppoirs , the Tmklsh olllclals posl-
tlvclj refused to receive him in audience un
til he bhall have published an encyclical con-
t'emnlng ' the alleged Intrigues and demands of
the Armenians As It has been demon-
stiated that HIP Turk * In the great majorlt }
of cases were to blame for tlio inabsicrss ,
nnd or thu hitltan has agreed to the powers'
sch mn of icforniB foi Armenia , the patil
inch was unable to iRtni" such an encyclical ,
for It would prnctlcallj admit that the de
mands of the Armenians were not Justified
CouEfiiut'iitly the patrlnich made an appeal
to the ambassadors and placed before them
the Htrongest evidence he could procure re
garding the massacres which have. re.contl >

LONnON , Nov 20 The Evening News
publishes a letter from Puctta , a simll town
of Bclooclilstan , near the Afghanistan fron
tier , which btates tint the nmeer of Af
ghanistan Is gieatl } annoyed at the failure
of Nurrullah Khan , his becond bon , to ar
range for a permanent Afglnnlstan repre
sentative at London during his recent visit
to that city. In consequence of tlie rage
of the amcar of Afghanistan , many persons
have been burned alive , a great number of
his bubjects Imvo been Imprisoned , while
many others have fled. A notable who ac
companied Pilnco Nir.rulUh on the occasion
of his vlblt to England , named Kotwal , la to
bo tortured ns soon nb ho arrives It is ex
pected that Nizrullah Khnn hlms-If will be
punished and that possibly lie may be ban
ished from Afghanistan.
The visit of Na/rullah Khan , thu second
sou of the amcei , was one of the feature
ot 93clnl and political lite In London last
Hummer The ameer hlnibtlf wa invited to
pay a visit to England , but his health wouln
not permit him to accept the Invitation. At
II 1st it Vv.is proposed that his elder son ,
Prince Habb'bul , should go to Englmd In-
steid of the ameer , but the ameei. having
virtually handed over the reins of govern
ment to the heir apparent , decided he could
not allow him to leave Cabul. The duty ot
representing the ameer devolved on the second
end bon , Prince Nazrullah. No expense was
spared in selecting presents for the royalties
ot Europe , fully two lakhs of rupees being
expended nt Cashmere for the pin chase of
rich shawls and other costly presents. In
addition to this , large sums were p\ld out
for the purpose ot giving nil the crowd of
his bon' < 4 followers Mitts of clothing and
money suitable to their rank.
The ecc ° ntrlcltles ot Prince Nazrullah
amused and abtonlshed all Emope It was
expected upon hla return to Afghanistan that
ha would wed the daughter of a wealthy
chief. But this part ot the program he teems
to have omitted , owing to tlie dl'favor exist
ing becauwe of the failure of the political
end ot his mlss'on. ' One estimate was made
showing that his few weeks in London cost
the English government 0,000 for entertain
ments and traveling expenses , exclusive ot the
largo bills brought In by the proprietors of
hotels where the prince stopped , becau'tt of
the peculiar methods of the ninety natives
of his suite , some of them even killing mid
pieparlng at the rooms at the- hotels , after
the manner of the Afghans , the animals
Intended for food for their master.

patch received here from Havana the con
stitutional union party of Cuba at a meeting
recently held nt Matanzas renewed Its ad
hesion to the government and General de
Campoa , and expressed confidence that re
forms would be Introduced at the opportune
moment.
The advices from Cuba add that Maximo
Gomer , the Insurgent leader , has reissued
orders for the destruction bv fire of planta
tions and threatening with death all who as
sist in gathering the crops. The purpose of
till * ] order lb to deprive the Spanish army of
means of subsistence In the field.
The rumors that the Spanish generals , Al-
tiavc nad Saurcz Valdez , have been killed
and that General LUU.IIC has been wounded li
engagJinents with the Insurgents prove to be
untrue , as also Is the report that Maximo
Gome/ , the Insurgent commander , was
drowned while wading across the Za/a river
In olllclal circle' it Is said that the sun
and substance of the whole affair Is that
Macea and Gomez , described respectively as
the "arm" and "head" of this rebellion , be-
"levlng " that the Insurrection cannot continue
If It Is possible to grind sugar in the province
of Santa Clara , where the planters are * li
ympathy with the government , decided to
Invade Santa Clara. But , It Is added , the
energy dlsplacd by General de Campos has
compelled the two Insurgent leaders to re-
cross the Zaza river , and It is officially statsd
that they are now nowhere within the bor
ders of the province of Puerto Principe , or
the province of Santa Clara. Continuing , It
Is stated that the producing people' of tha
province of Santa Clara are positive of being
able to grind their sugar cane and arc con
sequently backing with all their efforts the

busters against Spanish authority In Cuba
the United States will not take action for
the sole purpose of securing delay In restor
ing arms to masters of vessels which , upon
arrival , have been acquitted of the charge
hi ought against them. Recently a United
States attorney Instituted a procesdlng for
libel against a suspected vessel , which was
dismissed because of swme , technical error
Today he was lnstruct ° d by the govfrrnmen
to reinstate the proceedings and prosecute
it If , In his opinion , a judgment for the
government should and could be recovered
and thAt no prcce ding should be Institute
or returned to the docket merely for the
purpose ot detaining arnm or men or ves
sels. The duty and object of the govern
ment , tils high authority declared , was the
observance and enforcement ot the laws
with rigid Impartiality.
The following Is a copy ( In translation ) o ;

PITTSBURG , Nov. 20. The Dispatch tomorrow -
morrow will publish a letter from Its special
Cuban correspondent , who Is on the field near
Cumanogagua , In which ho gives details of a
battle at Gutla , near Clenfugos. He says the
Insurgents , numbering 450 , well fitted , were
defeated by 150 Spanish soldiers through the
negligence of Ihe Insurgents' commander ,
Colonel Jose Gnnzales , who failed lo mount
any guaids for the protection of his camp
When the Spanish forces , which had made
a forced march during the night , surprised
the camp In tlio early morning by firing
from un adjoining hill the Insurgent olllccrs
and men lied , save only forty-two Infantry
men , whom Captain Juan Jose Camplllo
hastily organized and who kept the Spaniards
In check for an hour , thus saving the dis
organized retreat of the real of their force
fiom being turned into a slaughter. The 10-
tie.at of the Infantry was Inter made In good
order. Only 250 of the 450 Insurgents had
como Into eamp by the next day , but It Is
not believed the mlbslng were killed , as
most of the fighting was between the forty-
two Insurgents and Spanish , both sides being
well covered. The Cuban forces here swear
vengeance upon Colonel Ooiualca , and he
will probably be shot.

NEW YORK , Nov. 20. The dolega'es ot

reported to have demanded Hint tlio dele
gates of all the other unions call out their

smltlio were employed. In tlio event ot being
called upon to do so.
ly ) tlio terms of the constitution ot the
board all or any of the delegates are bourn
to Join In a sympathetic strike wlurevcr am
whenever called upon by one or more of their
committee
In retaliation for these sympathetic strikers
the Iron leagu Is said to bo contemplating a
general lockout ot all union men employee
by Its members. Such action would throw
40,000 men out of employment.
The striking houscsmlths ha\o caused th °
electric lights to be cut oft on several large
Jobs ot J. 1J. and J. M ConHl and Jlllllkcn
Ilros. . so that work cannot be carried on at
night. The electric currtnt was shut off on
the Immense building of Slogel , Cooper < fc Co
at Sixth a\onue and Nineteenth sire t , the
Ho'el Waldorf annex nt Fifth avenue and
Thirty-fourth stree's and two or three other
structures because nonunion men were em
ployed on them. This was part of the plan
trapped out at the beginning of the strike.
The btrlko managers also called on the
hoisting cnglneTs , the derrick men , the ttone
cutters and the plasterers on several build
ings , and they dropped their tools and quit
vvor.t.
Tim committee of the Iron league met the
commissioners of mediation and arbitration
tonight Commissioner Teeny announced thai
he had seen the delegates of the strikers , and
that they wcro willing to submit the matter
to Just arbitration He pleaded with the
members of the league to take a Just view of
the case. President Coinell "aid the iron
workeis wcro willing to do what they could
and what they though vvao right , and that
their ultimatum had fbuen published In Tues
day's papers. He would not Insist upon this ,
however , until he consulted everal members
unavoidably absent. Owing to the failure of
thc c certain members' ' to be present nothing
definite could be ai rived at. Tomorrow the

CV-NNOT DISPENSE WITH LEGAL TEN

He then turned his attention to Secretary
Carlisle's bpee-eii. The liable error of the

dea that legal tenderx eould be done away i
vltl. entlicly. It could not bo done. Ho
said this In substance
"The great mistake was In the wliy the .
lemocratlc administration had tampered J
with the gold reserve. H should have Issued - !
sued short bonds for fhc yean. ' duration ,
which the people here would hive taken up *

renchlng on the gold retone The "short '
) ends , of eourse , would have been paid fern
n legal tender. Instead of doing this , the ,
administration had permitted domestic and
orelgn bankeis to clear $11,000,000 by soli
ng bonds for gold at 4 per eent. Carlisle' *
