Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States, Transmitted to Congress, With the Annual Message of the President, December 5, 1892

Mr. Newberry to Mr. Foster.

Legation of the United States,
Constantinople, October 25, 1892. (Received November 14.)

No. 585.]

Sir: I beg to inform you that Bartlett has evidently left Kara Hissar. A telegram I sent him on Saturday has been returned here with the information that Bartlett has left that place. A short letter to Dr. Dwight, dated the 18th, says the authorities have finally moved, and have arrested the ringleader in the attack on his house and sent, him to Constantinople. The petty insults and persecutions, however, towards the converts of the mission still keep up, and I can see no way to offer them protection.

I have, etc.,

H. R. Newberry,
Chargé d’Affaires ad interim.
