Oct 5.— The Constantinople correspondent of the Standard, under date of Wednesday, telegraphs to his ■paper: The Armenian patriarch was on Tuesday invited to attend the porte. but ho declined because i uons of his followers were allowed to , accompany him. He remained at the patriarchate shut up with several hdilßE dred armed Armenians. * Reviewing the incident it appears ; that the police generally were not supplied with ball cartridge* Thoy were instructed to use’the flats of their swords and the butts of their rifle* Such provocation as they gave in the first instance was verbal. The Armenians fired first. With the exception of the massacre of the prisere the most vioieuce was committed by the Sofia* and the lowest class of Moslems, none of whom however, appear to have been arrested or otherwise checked. Constantinople, Oct- 7.—-The result of the cotrff'erenec held by the foreign diplutuajfs here to consider the situation arising from the rioting on Monday and Tuesday, was that the Drago wans of the several embassies and. legations were directed to protest to the foreign minister against the excesses of the police and equally against the barbarity of the Mussulman mob ' in regard to the arrested and wounded Armenians, several of whom were beaten .to death with bludgeon*,, while others were cruelly mutilated. The Dragomans were. directed to call the porte's serious wl.k.ie affair an.l to beg the fonQrA minister to see measures Wre zd» pled to prevent foreigners from suffering and to restore order. lion. A. W. Terrell, the minister of tbe United States, made a special request that measures be adopted for the safety of the American missionaries in the Koiimkapou quarter. His representations had the desired effect. The city is quiet. It is evident that the government has taken every pre- e caution to prevent further disorder, and'to quell any rioting should it occur m spite of the measures adopted to prevenVit. One of th" precautions taken was the posting of' guards around the Turkish quarters to prevent the inhabitants from leaving them in order to go to those parts of the city occupied by Armenians. Late Friday as ernoon the police were withdrawn from the patriarchate and other churches and kahns in which Armenians had taken refuge, and all those who had sought saiety in these structures were invited to return peaceably to their homes. Some took advantage of the invitation, but others, fearing treachery, determined to remain where they were until such t>tne as the popular excitement had further abated. The So.'tas were guilty of great excesses on Tuesday, and especially during the raid on the Armenian quarter, which they made at night At TookurtcheMne, near StambouL the students and populace broke into an Armenian building, killed fifteen persons and woqnded thirty-five others. In addition, it is said that they conveyed the wounded to the shore and threw them into the sea. It is learned from a reliable source that more than 1,000 Armenians have been arrested and cast into prison on the charge of having been actively Concerned in the rioting or having instigated the trouble. During the rioting on Tuesday crowds of Mohammedans took advau'tdSre of the great excitement to loot many Armenian shops and office* Their spoil is reported to have been quite valuable.

MACEO WOUNDED. Leader of the Cuban Insurgents Shot tn a Battle. ; Havana. Oct 7.—The Spanish have dealt the Caban insurgents a severe blow, if the official reports given out are to be rblied upon. The rebels have met with defeat and Geti. Antonio Maceo has been badly wounded. Many of his follower! were killed or wounded. The battle, said to be the most bloody of the present war. was fought in the country between Soa Arribia and San Fernando, in the Holguin district of Santiago de Cuba. The insurgents were commanded by Gen. Maceo, while the Spanish troops were commanded by Geri. EAchulgue. The insurgents, numbering 3,000 lnfan try and 800 cavalry, laid in wait for Gen. Exchalgue, who appeared at the head of 1,300 infantry and 300 cavalry. The Spanish troops also possessed one field cannon.' Gen. Exchalgue distributed ins men in admirable fashion I and planned to fall at certain speci- : fied times upon the positions held ! by the insurgents. The revolutionists, ; aware of his movements, arranged for j a strong outpost to check the impetuosity of the Spanish troops. Th? regular Spanish forces paid little atteni tion to the small body of men stationed at the outposts and rushed to the main force. The insurgents made a desperate resisteuce, which lasted seven hours. Finally Gen. Maceo, seeing his men in a critical situation, rushed to the front with nts staff, lie had scarcely taken a position m front of the line, when he fell seriously wounded, liis followers at once placed him on stretchers and succeeded in carrying kiln off the field. As soon as it was known that Gen., i Maceo had been wounded all wascon- ' fusion.in the ranks of the insurgents, I who. according to official advices here, were put to flight, leaving upon the field twenty killed and several wounded. Spanish officials estimate that . before Maceo fell fully ISO dead and wounded insurgents were carried I from the field. These officials also ass sett that many of the insurgents surf rendered, discouraged by the defeat I and the wounding of Maceo, and they 1 expec: that others will give themselves up. Wasu'.xutox, Oct. 7.—+Thc question of whether the Cuban *|revclutionists ! shall be recognized os belligerents by the United Spates government will be determined, it is believed, by the even ts of the next six weeks in Cuba., The feeling in favor of such a step is stronger at the state department now that, it ■ has been at any time heretofore. Secretary Olney is being influenced by the public sentiment springing up all over this c. untry for the Cubans The meetings held recently in Chicago and the published interviews with the governors of many states, all showing a strong sympathy for the revolutionists, have had their effect on both the presi lent and his secretary of state. They would not hesitate a day to recognise the. belligerency of Cuba but for the ft-‘t that it has been learned officially that Spain has recently strengthened tier military, forces on the islands until they now number 10b, imj -.-stea l of 89,00) as has been generally estimated. A number of important battles will he fought in the next few weeks, the result of which will determine whether Spain can suppress the rebellion. It' would be a costly experiment for the United States to recognise the belligerency of the revolutionists and throw open our ports to them and then have the revolution suddenly fail and the Spanish government move on us for indemnity. Nearly all the South and Central American republics are ready to extend recognition—to the revolutionists, but will wait for a signal from the United States. EXPORT OF GOLD CEASED.

Washing rqs, Oct. 7. — The true amount of the gold reserve at the close of business Saturday was 893,006,886, a net gain for the day of 8208,W7. The present situation as to gold withdrawals, as viewed at the treasury department, is more hopeful than at any time within the last several weeks, a.nd, in the opinion of many, the’ reduction in the rate of sterling exchange, the cessation of withdrawals for export, and the apparently Increasing willingness of banks to exchange gold for non-legal tenders, indicates a return to normal conditions, and a turn in the tide oi gold movements.

CRUSHED AT CHURCH. I disaster Attends the Laying of a Comdr Stone in Loraine, O. Flatform Falls Into a Basement, »Cd • Large Crowd of People Go with It —A Little Giri Killed—Many I Peraont Burt. Loraine, 0., Oct 7.—The laying of the cornerstone for the new St Mary's Catholic church in this city Sunday was accompanied by an awful disaster. Fully 5,000 people were in attendance and the priests were about ready to proceed with the services when an accident occurred that created a panic and killed a little girl and wounded hbottt twenty-five more,. several of them fatally. The foundation for the building extended about 10 feel above the base- ( meat bottom, and on this was erected a platfprm where the ceremonies were being held. Over 1,000 persons were standing on the floor when a section of it, containing about 300 people, sank beneath its burden and precipitated them into the pit. The section which gave way was in two wings, and as it sank it formed a death trap for the people, from which there was no chance to escape. The pit resembled an inverted roof of very steep slant, the ends being closed up by stone walls, and into this it was 1 that there were crowded men. women • and children in one struggling heap. t As the floor gave way, a great cry • went up from the multitude, but in an- • other second it dlad fallen and carried in its ruin the lives of several persons. Those at the top of the mass escaped easily, bat when the. pit was • partly emptied those victims still entrapped could not clamor up the steep aides, and they trampled each other lihe so many wild creatures, the 1 strong getting on top and the weak being crushed beneath the great weight Although there were a thousand people ready to rush to the rescue they could render very little aid to the helpless persons in the pit and several minutes elapsed before ropes and ladders could be procured. When help finally reached the unfortunate victims, several had already been trampled to death and others iatally injured. The old Catholic church near by was turned 'lnto a hospital and morgue. , Into this were carried those who were killed and injured.
