The proclamation of amnesty issued by the sultan through the Turkisli consul gen eral In New York, Is taken by the local Armenians with a grain of salt. K. K. Gregory' and others of his race In the city are considerably skeptieal as tej the sin cerity of the preK.lamatkn "This Is the fourth offer of freedom which has been issued by the Turkish gov ernment during tlie laal century," id Mr. Gregory, "and Ira earh of the previous in stances the new conditions did not last any appreciable length of time. To satisfy the majority of ti, refugees in this country and to have ll.cm believe In the sincerity of the proclamation of the sultan, we would ask that the foreign, powers represe nteet at the Tiirkmh cipital, endorse tlie proe-lama-tlon and assure us of their assistance in the enactment of it. "The exponents of the new government are the younger Turks who have been educated In tlie large colleges of Kurope, many of whom returned us professois in the schools of Asia Minor and implanted the '.vaf'r dissatisfaction in the minds of the Turks themselves." continued Mr. OreR'ry. "The old style of government has be en so rotten that It ranrxit be chang. el in a day. week or a montii, but If we tr assured that the new conditions aie to prevail there will he a great Influx of tic: refugees into Turkey."
