Persons suspected of disloyalty are arrested upon information being lodged against them by any spy.
The Armenian recently arrested for attempting to murder an archpriest in the Koom Kapou quarter of Constantinople was to-day found dead in his cell, it is alleged that his death was the direct result of the tortures inflicted upon him. The officials at Van, Armenia, are still arming the Turks, and outrages upon the Armenians there are of frequent occurrence.
