Consul Caughey at Messina , Italy , stating
that the Italian government , beginning to
day , exacts 1 lire (19 ( 3 cents ) tax per ton on
sulphur besides the piesent export duty of
11 lire per ton. The importance of this
change to American drug Interests Is ex
plained In a recent report by Consul Hitter
at Catania , Italy. He says the Anglo-
Slclltan Sulphur trust has been formed to
control the sulphur market , having Its cen
ter In Italy. The capital stock Is $3,000,000
'Ily an arrangement \ , \ \ \ \ the government ad
ditional duties were provided The United

sulphur annually and Consul Hitter Bays
the higher late of the crude brimstone will
therefore cause great Injury to the acid
makers and other manufacturers of the

CONSTANTINOTLi : . Aug 27 A guard of
Trench sailors from the guardshlp Lii I'lechn
vvas Installed at the Piciich embass ) this
inornliiK to protect the embassy from rioters )
Her majcst ) s ship DO ml arrived early this
morning from Ihcrapln Her majesty's ship
CocKntrlco , en route to the Danube , remained
hcio on account of , the riots.
The- leaders of the mob which attacked
the offices of the Ottoman bank surrendered
nnd will bo expelled from Turkey. The
official account of the tioulilis attributes
the riots to nn organized effort on the part
of the central committee ot the Aimcnlnn
revolutionists to stir up a i evolution The
Invaders , as If b ) a preconcerted arrange
ment , suddenly entered the great hall of
the Ottoman bank , armed with revolvers ,
daggers nnd dynamite bombs. Foimlng In
small groups they were accosted by the
olllcei of the guard , who demanded from
them a statement of their business with the
bank. Without stopping to repl ) they blew
out his brains , and then killed and beheaded
the gendarmes , throwing the heads of the
dead men out Into the stiects. Dur
ing the resultant confusion they closed
the doors of the bank and
hurled a number of bombs Into the
street. Tour Turkish ladles who were driv
ing along In a cirrlage were blown to pieces
by the explosion of one of the dtmniltc
bombs , Two of the rrench employes of
the bank , while descending from a win
ilow ot the bank by a rope , were wounded
by one of the explosions. They narrowly
escaped with their lives by reason of the
timely Intervention of the Imperial troops.
Iho rioters also captured a hotel In the
city of Constantinople and bombs and shot
and missiles fairly rained upon the heads
of the passersby , wounding many persons
Many similar events are repotted from
various portions of the city. It Is Known
that a great many persons have been Killed ,
but It Is Impossible to ascertain the exact
number owing to the excitement nnd the
desire on the part of the Armenians as well
as the Turkish authorities to Keep the Iden
tity of the killed and wounded secret. The
Armenian patriarch has excommunicated all
Armenians concerned In the latest uprising.
The disturbances , which began with the
attack on the Ottoman bank ) cstcrda ) after
noon , have subsided today. None of the
staff of the bank were Injured and the bank
vvas not robbed. A number of the rioters
and a score or more of Turkish soldiers
were killed. The bank was attacked by
about twenty men armed with revolvers
and bombs , who first killed a number of the
gendarmes on guard. The cmplocs of the
bank closed the doors to prevent the ad
vance of the mob and fled to the quarters In
the bank building occupied by the' tobacco
syndicate , which has control of the collec
tion of the taxes on tobacco In the Turkish
empire The Invaders mounted the roof of
the building and from the windows fired at
the police In the street below. The police
returned the fire In a vigorous fashion and
several were killed and wounded. The riot
then became general. Shops were sacked
and bazaars Invaded , and the wildest ex
citement prevailed throughout certain quar
ters of Constantinople. This was Kept up
for the greater part of the night , the mobs
tn the Oalata quarter constantly Increasing
In numbers. A bomb was exploded , killing
and wounding a largo numb or of soldiers
in a guardhouse near by. There Is no doubt
but what tbo movement had Its origin at
the secret meetings of the Hlnchaklst Ar
menians nnd that It vvas Intended as a revo
lutionary coup.
PAHIS , Aug 27. The manager of the
Ottoman bank hero has received a telegram
from the directors of the bank at Constanti
nople saying tint the disturbances there arc
over. Olllclal dispatches icceived hcio from
Constantinople say that the French charge
d'affalrs there has Installed a guard of sail
ors from the French guardshlp La Fleche
at the French embassy as a measure of
precaution. The Trench rovernment will
Immediately dispatch a second gunboat to
