I".1 foreseen ami uneoni roimoJe circum-siam-es arise the uprising will take place as announced. "The exact date lor the uprisinc has not yet been lixed ov nig lor the mos5 part to tlie laet that the extreme section "t the revolutionary party is njt ready for active o[ieraiions, \vhetiier (u* not 1 he. central section AVIII v.'ait for the eastern Avmg longer man the month of Mav 1 do nof kuov.- nor has tho matter ictually been decided. I am led to i»eheve that the eastern wing can. not i.e ready tor hostilities Hay. and possibly nor before the 1st ol July. The eastern Y»'ing has been and is having a hard :i ol' it, ov.'ing to circumstances over "winch tlie leaders have no comrol. "in tne lirst place, fne mountain jKisses leadiug to Van have been blocked v.'itli snow ior sonie montiis, so that only special messengers loilov."ng the regular routes ol travel could get through. And, therefore, it was impussible to forward uuns and ammunition iruin Kussia and 1'ersia to the distrieis at.out Lake Van. There are. guns now on the border awaiting transportation ^.nto Armenia. "in the second place the Armenians tne. eastern end of Turkev are in a condition bordering upon starvation. It is obvious that people this section can not lignt. On tins point a leading executive olJieer uf the re\olutlonary parry said to me three days ago: 'if men have nothing their stomtichs nat can they do

any paper in the

before v»'e can expect them to

lh:ht. When Me can get food enough on hand to last them two mouths then Ave snail show the world how Annomans can ngnt.' -"It is this question of food that the revolutionary leaders will iind niosfc dilllcult of solution lor the problem ox smiu-'-giing guns into Armenia will bo solved with tlie coining spring, wnich 3.- now just beginning to be ielt in the •. I lov, or valleys. It is plain that if no 1 ood is to be had. pe ple c.an not be fed, no matter .how much money they may nave, and it is a fact tnat in the easier par ol Armenia food is so scarce that tne well-to-do and r.eh people have no I more tlian vhoy actuaJiy need. ew cro|is were gnnvn last summer,

wuat the poor people had left in the way of provisions or

Russia and 1'ersia, taking Mifli them only the roues winch covered their persons. Hundreds of them died on the I rad of starvation and exposure. Of these the old women and young elnldivn were the must numertms but in many cases strong men broke down nudei' tin? strum ot hunger and despair, 'j here will no no crops planted in eastern Armenia this spring, ior tlie country everywhere is sullering from a reign of terror. "i'he presence of the commission of lnquiiy at Afoosh and tin* indignation ot the Christian powers ol Europe have had absolutely no eilect on the conduct ot either tho Turks or tlie Kurds in eastern Turkey. I am just receipt ol trustworthy advices from a lion-Ar-inenian source at Van co the effect that a massacre is looked lor at any moment. "It is a fact which the British government can verily by consulting tlie report of Mr. Paton, an official of the

British consulate at Tebraiz, Persia, that in several cases the Turkish officials the devastated district of Armenia tried hard to save the Armenians Irotu death and their property lrom destruction, but when tiiey protested against the murderous raids of the troops the officers read to them the orders of the sultan, and so nothing could be done. "Mr. Puton lias lately returned to Tebriz from an investigating tour among the Armenian refugees along the border between Persia and Turkey. He found plenty ot them from the Lake Van and Moosli districts, but not. one from Sassoun. There are no Sassoun survivors in Ouriiiaia, .Salinas, Diliman, Khoi, Tebriz or any other place in Persia, and so very few in Russia that they are most difficult to lind. This absenco of Sassoun people among so many refugees lrom other districts of eastern Armenia suggests the dreadful possibility that few of those wretched people escaped the massacre. "The investigation of Mr. Patpn along the Persian border has been cofifirmed, and confirms now the facts in a general way which I have incidentally obtained (luring the past eight weeks. He has collected many heartrending stories of persecution, robbery, outrage and murder, with names, dates and places, and as reasonable proof that tho re.ugees who gave testimony to lnui told tlie truth it may be said that in a general way tlie facts obtained in different places were practically the same. The events of the massacre were so horrible that even the chronic exaggeration of the Armenian mind fans to add anything to them. "Mr. Patoii was accompanied ou this

cvf investigation b.vDr. Wright, an .--.nierieau m.s-iouary. stationed at baimas. These gentlemen took the testimony from several witnesses to the effect that when tlie Turkish soldiers and Kurds appeared at-ft certain village they killed some- of the villagers who dared to protest against their outrages, 1 and many of the dead men were eat up and thrown into a kettle and hulled in a manner like su much beef. The boiled pieces were then given to the villagers for ioo'l. The wretche-.i creatures were compelled to eat their fruinds to the last mouthful. "In another village a party of Kurds found a child asleep in a cradle. They overturned the. cradle and smothered tlie child. Then they dissected and I roasted pieces of it before the fire. As a climax they compelled the members of the family, including the child's mother, to eat the roasted pieces. But

these are only casual instances picked out at random from the mass of testimony taken by Mr. Paton and Dr. I Wright, tlie details of which will be found in Air. Pa ton's report if it is ever •mule public. So much that is horrible in the way of torture and outrage is scattered through this testimony that the leport- may not be made public. "Tho refugees who tell these stories are for the most part ready to return to

Armenia to wreak vengeance upon their persecutors as soon as they are supplied with ammunition, arms and loud by tin-! revolutionary party, and, as alreadv stated, the only thing lacking is food.

ue weapons I have seen are known in Kussia as "boldatski" guns that is tlie sr.ins issued to the soldiers ot the regular army uf liussia. The gun is the Bcrdan rifle, a simple, efficient arm particularly well suited to rough usage. "One of tne bitterest filings the Arjnenian revolutionary leaders has to refleet upon is tlie fact that many" Armedians' act as spies for ,^ie Turkish government. It is a melancholy state o! things lreely admitted bv the Armenians themselves, that hundreds of Armenians can always be found ro sell •jut their country and their lrieuds for a few pieces ot silver. The revolutionary lea dors hardly know whom to rely imon.tor their most trusted agents may le in the pay ot the Turkish government. "Tlie leaders and a: euts whom nave met are apparently sincere mil. jrnstworthy. There was no bluster or brag or buncombe about anything they said. One man told me, while engaged in the preliminary work of the revolutionary movement, he once walked from Tihis. Uussia, to Constantinople, a distance ot nearly a thousand miles. In Constantinople he worked as a bootblack. As to his present plans, this man's only concern is to supply food to the people ot eastern Armenia. In a general way the man impressed me as being one who will never give up until lie nas accomplished what he set out to do. "Tlie headquarters of the revolutionary party are in London, and it is in .London that the head leader issues his orders to his executive loaders Russia, Persia and Turkey. It is my duty to give a word of warning to the knnlhearied persons in (Jreat Britain and America who are subscribing funds for the relief of the Sassoun refugees. If these contributors have no desire to aid tlie revolutionary party they should ascertain verv truly tlie ultimate destiny oi their contributions. As I have already pointed out, the Sassoun relief funds are merely revolutionary iumls disguise. "t am convinced that any relief money entrusted to any Armenian will sooner or later bo used to help the revolutionary cause. The entire Armenian people are interested tins revolution. At present the only possible way in vi hieh the starving people of Armenia can be helped is by means ot the Christian missionaries Turkey and Persia. I say tins not knowing what the complication might arise between the missionaries and the Turkish government, but to give money to Armenian committees is .limply to aid the revolutionists. Help is needed, however, and that •lainediatelv."

UNION OF REPUBLICS

New Treaties Made of Reaching Importance

Salvador and Costa Itica. \Y.\h inc ox. May 27.—Now 'treaties of far reaching importance have recently been made between ^Nicaragua and Honduras, and official copies have just been received in Washington. The treaties have ueeu under negotiation for some time, and were finally put into effect by proclamation un the loth of last month.

They are the lirst practical step toward the formation of a Central American nation out of tho several small republics, Nicaragua, Honduras, I Ciuatemaia, Salvador and Costa Rica,

The first treaty forms a defensive alliance against common enemies. It obliterates commercial frontiers so that I foreigners once admitted to one count ry are free, to enter another. An express provision is made against tlie possibility ot war between the countries by an article requiring differences to be adjusted by arbitration of some government on tlie American continent.

Article is the one looking to the union a simile nation, and is as. lul1ia\S: "The high contracting parties solemnly declare that they can not and will not consider as foreign the other Central -a inericaii con'itrie-,, and that they will labor constantly to main tarn the family bonds and tlie greatest cordiality in their relations maivdig a common cause with tliem in case of war or diniculfies wiili foreign countries, and mediating tiieir internal relations. To this end the present treaty will lie submitted to their consideration, inviting tliem to subscribe to it as a common Central American treaty, until tlie arrival of tilt! day when tney shall be incorporate I into a singh nation."

The features of the treaty show tho closeness of tho alliance now formed between .Nicaragua and Honduras. Article 1 binds the government lo "unity their foreign policy, to act jointly in matters concerning Central American coiint.ries and to endeavor to bring ahout the same uniformity and harmony with tne other governments of Central America."

Tho article pledging a mutual offensive! and defensive alliance is as follows: "Loth governments declare that there shall exist between them a defensive alliance in case ol foreign war, and an offensive one against common enemies."

Article -1 arranges a plan ol arbitration ellocting all Central American States. Succe.eding articles agree on unilurm postal, tanll: and other laws, uiulorm diplomatic representation abroad, etc. in every way possible the boundary line is wiped out, and the countries form a complete political union or alliance. Article JS). expresses the extent ot this union as follows "The. saitl contract government desirous of acting jointly everyt'j&ng aifeeting their interests, besides avonn. to make unaorm their foreign policy and to have a common representative belore other nations, shall endeavor to agree upon a basis upon wlueli they shall conclude subsequent treaties with foreign nations and make concessions to steamsn.p,Vailroad and other companies."

Article iiO against war tor reprisal is as loliows: "Should any or tho articles of this treaty be violated or lnlnnged in in any v»ay, or should any other cause of disagreement between the two republics arise, it is expressly stipulated that lieititer of the contracting parties shall order or autnon/.e acts ot reprisal nor declare Avar until all peacefi.l means ot satisfaction of agreement have been exhausted."

These means shall be tlie setting forth memorials uf the 'Menses or damages indicted with compere'it proofs or testimony to be presented bv the aggrieved government, and should satisfaction be denied the decision ot the matter shall be submitted to the arbitration of one of the governments of Central America ur ot the. American con incut.

There has been mure ur less conjecture as to the formation of a Central American nation, but this treaty appears to be the first practical step toward its accomplishment. Its proclamation at Tegucigalpa on April 15 was followed by a meeting at Managua of the ministers of Salvador and Honduras aud the other republics, with a view to carrying out Article 5:5 for the acceptance of the treaty by all of the countries.

The text of another Nicaragua-Hon-duras treaty has also been received. It provides lor the arbitration of their boundary question by a commission to be chosen by the two countries, and if an agreement on the commission is not made then Spain is constituted final arbit rator.
