American Missionaries at Aintnl* Unvharnicd lu the Recent Massacre.

AN OUTBREAK IN CAESAREA Armenians Retaliate at Enderhln by Burning the Government Buildings and Pillaging Nearby Villages—Americans Afraid to Venture Upon the Streets at Kharpoot, Bitlis and Marash. Constantinople, Deo. 2. — United States Minister Terrell has received from Aiutab, on the southern slopes of Monnt Taurus, a dispatch which states that the American missionaries there are safe and were unharmed in the recent massacre and have not required the services of special guards. Reports of a fanatical outbreak in Caesarea have created anxiety as to the safety of the American mission there and Minister Terrell has wired an inquiry, to which an answer is still awaited. The non-arrival of private letters from Kharpoot and Sivas has had a disquieting effect. Official dispatches describe a small conflict in Zilics, in the villayet of Sivas, in which four Mussulmans and five Armenians were killed, and another at Enderhin, where Armenian .ebels attacked the town, burned the government buildings and pillaged the Mussulman villages in the vicinity of Pias. Troops have been sent to repress the outbreak. The question of extra guard ships seems at a standstill for the present, though the threat of Sir Philip Currie to renew his purpose unless foreigners should be exempt from outrage is still

open.

It is stated that the American admiral at Smyrna recently asked permission to bring an ironclad here to visit the sultan, but permission was refused. VIRTUALLY PKISONKRS. Aniericitn MinslonfirleA at Kharpoot, Bit1U nnd lUnranli Afraid to Venture Out. London, Dec. 2.—Dispatches from Constantinople say that the American missionaries at Kharpoot, Bitlis and Marash are practically prisoners. They are protected by the troops, but are afraid to venture u|>on the street. The surviving Christians of the villages near Moush, Kharpoot and Arab ekir are being offered the choice between Islamism and the sword. The porte has documents purporting to be written by Armenians at Kharpoot, accusing the American missionaries of imbuing youthful Armenians with revolutionary ideas. David, the son of Hali Rifatt, grand vizier, has been exiled to Syria on the snltan's discovering that he had demanded a bribe of £8,000 as the price of his father’s favorable report on the loan negotiations with the tobacco regime. The snltan is fnrions and will probably dismiss Hali Rifaat. REVOLUTION THREATENED. Old Turkry IArty Will Msk. Tronbl. If the Sultan Give* W»y. New York, Dec. 2.—A dispatch to The Herald from Vienna says: The crisis is again getting serious. The old Turkey party threatens to bring about a revolution if the saltan gives way. Russian and anti-English influences at the Y ildiz Kiosk are increasing. The saltan has given the title of pasha to Hussan Usnir, a well known Anglot phjbe writer, and hits also accorded decf orations to a number of Russian notabilities. The antagonism between the grand vizier and Sir Philip Currie is increasing, while Germany is profiting by her good relations with the powers to play the part of the “honest broker.”

IN A VAT OF NITRIC ACID. Chemical Work* Employe Meets Death In a Horrible Manner. Baltimore, Dec. 2.—Robert Janssen, aged 80, employed at the Monumental Chemical works, Anne Arundel county, met with a horrible accident yesterday which resulted in death later. He fell into a vat ot nitric acid. He managed to crawl out and was taken to the Maryland University hospital, but died in awfnl agony a few minutes after his ar-

rival.

COMES TO AN ABRUPT END.

Thomas Brackett Reed Again Made Speaker ol the House,

Senator Hill’s Lecture Tour Met With Discouraging Financial Returns. Minneapolis, Doc. 2.—Senator David B. Hill’s lecture tour in the northwest has proved a failure and came to an abrupt end yesterday, when the senator closed his business arrangements with his manager, canceled all farther engagements and returned to New York with the reason assigned that he contracted a severe cold while at Dnluih, making him adverse to further public speaking at present. The fact is, however, that the audiences which gathered to listen to him at Milwuakee, Minneapolis, St. Paul and Dulnth, were so meagre that the financial retarus were insufficient to pay expenses, and Senator Hill refused to talk for nothing. He lectured Saturday night at Dnluth and came to Minneapolis yesterday. He was booked for ten lectures altogether. Before leaving the city last night, Senator Hill declined to be interviewed and was evidently much disgusted with the reception he had met. ANOTHER CRIPPLE CREEK.

That Noted Camp May He Eellpeed by Weat Creek Gold Dlucoverlea. Denver, Dec. 2.—The career of Cripple Creek may be repeated and possibly eclipsed by West Creek, which is within 50 miles of Denver and almost in sight of the dome of the capitol. The greatest activity now prevails among the miners, prospectors and town site boomers. Two stage lines are kept busy between Rockland Park and West Creek and one between Piatt Station and the camp. Two towns, Tyler and Pemberton, have been established and there are nearly 1,000 people at the camp. EARTHQUAKE’S WORK.

OTHER OFFICERS ELECTED.

Senate Meetn and the New Membem Are Sworn In—Prenident'a Mennage Will Be Read Tomorrow—Republican Senators to Caucuii on the Reorganization ^ueation—Little Work Before the Holiday*. Washington, Dec. 2.—The first week of the Fifty-fourth congress, which convened at noon today, promises nothing at either end of the capitol in the way of actual legislation. The time before the Christmas holidays is usually devoted to preliminary matters aud the work of the session does not begin until after the recess. The new congress will orobably not be an exception to this rule. The senate proceedings may bo enlivened by an attempt at reorganization, but in the house nothing can be

LONG AFTER-DINNER NAP. Alarming Condition of a Young Lady From New Jerwoy. Nr.w York, Dec. 2.—If Miss Jessie Wiley doesn’t awake pretty soon the doctors who are in attendance on her fear that she never will. She wont to sleep after eating her Thanksgiving dinner, coaid not tie aroused next morning, and, although she breathes aud has all the appearances of health, everything that the physicians have tried has failed to bring her to consciousness. She Is about 22 years old, and lives with her mother in New Brunswick, N. J. She came to the city Wednesday to spend Thanksgiving day with friends, and was one of the merriest of the happy party at the dinner table. Before the others of the company had thonght of retiring she complained of “'feeling very weary, and said she would go to her room. When she did not appear at the breakfast table next morning her friends went to awaken her. She was apparently asleep, but they could not arouse her. A physician was summoned, but he has been unable to arouse the sleeping girl. Ex-Mayor of Kankakee Dead. Kankakee, Ills., Dec. 2.—Solon L. Knight, aged 65, died at his winter home in New Orleans yesterday. He was president of the Kankakee City iVatioual bank and the Kankakee Stone and Lime company. He had been mayor /if this city several terms. Remain* lrt>A#r Water Four Minute*. Detroit, Dec. Professor Enoth, an aquatic perfornaer at Wonderland theater, last night accomplished the feat of staying under 'water four minutes and eight seconiHs, which, he claims, breaks all previo us records in

that line.

Many Cisterns In the Ohio Valley Ruined by the Recent Shock. Cincinnati, Dec. 2.—Since the recent rains it has been found that cisterns in different parts of the Ohio valley no longer hold water. The cisterns have been dry for mouths and the general theory is that the cement was cracked by the earthquake that was so distinctly felt throughout the Ohio valley on Oct. 81. Their Skiff Overturned. Uniontown, Pa., Dec. 2.—Five persons were drowned in the Monongahela river below Brownsville. John ihekup, Mrs. Ethel Stephens, Mr. and Mrs. McIntosh and Jacob Eskiu were returning from Brownsville totheir home at Woods Ran in a skiff. They got too close : > the steamer James G. Blaine, which was coming up stream, aud the waves upset the skiff, throwing them all into deep water. It was very dark and nothing could be done to help them.

WJr SPEAKER THOMAS R. REED, lone until the committees are appointed. Speaker Reed says that the com mittees will not be announced this week with, perhaps, a single exception —the committee on rules. This committee formulates the rules which are to govern the house during its sessions and it is customary for the speaker to name it during the first week in order that it can immediately begin its labors. While it is believed that the rules of the Fifty-first congress, over which Mr. Reed presided, will be reported for the guidance of the present house, it is understood that a few changes will be made as a result of experience which are designed to still further improve the house machinery and the facilitation of public business. Oricnnlzatioii of the Honss. Mr. Kerr, clerk of the last house, called the house to order. A rolloall was had and then the following officers selected at Sutu/day night’s Republican caucus were elected and installed: Thomas B. Reed ol Maine, speaker. Alexander McDowell of Pennsylvania,

The man resisted arrest and a fight followed, in which Saugater was killed.

Tony fled.

The father and elder brother were arrested, but were liberated on the condition that they would give Tony up. They did this. Officers started with the prisoner to Unadilla for a trial. A mob took him from them and since then no trace of Sutton can be found. Henry Sutton, his youngest brother, has also disappeared, aud it is supposed
