ARMENIANS ALARM MACEDONIAN PRISONS FILLED WITH BABYLONIANS Bashi Bazotiks Are Committing All Kinds of One Engagement In Albania a NumbeJ Were Killed and Wotinded Constant lnople--Tho Turkish authorities are disquieted at tho recent appearance of bauds of Armenian revolutionists, coming from Russia, in the districts ol Bayazid and Sasun, Armenia, and are adopting rigorous measures to guard the frontier. Tho Armenians cross in small parties iu the neighborhood of Bayazid and thence mako their way Sasun mountains, where they are safe from pursuit. It is alleged here that tho Russian authorities of Karia, Asiatic Russia, are aware of the movements of the Armenians, but they do not intend to interfere. It is believed that the appearance of these bands indicates a revival of activity on the part of the old Armenian committees, who are understood t'j be anxious to take advantage of possible complications arising from the Macedonian situation, in which case the claims of the Armenians will be re rived and the same advantages gained by the Macedonians from European intervention will be demanded lor Armenia. Tho Turkish government has notified tho Bulgarian oxarch that Geras- simos, bishop of Strumitz, Macedonia, has been removed, and has invited the exarch to appoint his successor.

The exarch, however, refuses to recognize the authority of 1 Turkish government to remove tho bishop and has advised (uTassimos, who is practically a prisoner iu his owu remaiu firm. It i.s alleged that Bishop Ceras- simos is a supporter of the Macedonian movement, but it is also stated that the charges are brought by the clergy. Tho prisons of Macedonia are overflowing with Bulgarians, the Turkish wit hot-it hoping to thereby paralyze the of tho Macedonian committees. It was announced that the Turkish troops had entered Ipek.

Their companion in duty, Private Harlow, was wounded at the same time. Captain Overton's troop of the Fifteenth had been scouting in the department of the Mismisis, Mindanao, on the trial of the insurgent leader, Flores. The cavalrymen captured fifty of Flores' followers an! confined them in a house at Sucatlan. Captain Overton and three men remained to guard the prisoners while Lieutenant Cameron continued in pursuit of Flores. The prisoners suddenly broke out of the house where they were confined, secured their bolos and the four Americans on guard.

Baldwin, a pioneer miner and prospector, stood on tho edge of his mining shaft, after one of the side walls had caved iu, and picked up what he thought waa do- composed granite to throw after the tumbling ruins as parting salute to the scene of his struggle. As the boulder was about to leave his hand he was attracted by a glitter. Examination showed that rich sulpurets covered free gold. lie had picked a rock from the site of the cave.

A few strokes of the pick exposed a rich veiu at tho side of which Baldwin had toiled bravely unrewarded for many years.

Recruiting Suspended in the navy has been suspended for the present, owing to the prevalenec uf cortagious diseases at various training stations and aboard receiving ships on the Atlantic and iflc coasts.
