    LONDON, Oct. 1,--In reference to the plan of Henry Morgenthau, American


    Ambassador to Turkey, to transport to America the 550,000 Armenians who
    have
    escape slaughter. The Chronique has received some additional details
    from an
    authority on near Eastern affairs who has information direct from
    Constantinople
    by way of Sofia.

    Besides offering to make himself personally responsible for $1,000,000


    defray
    the expense of the emigration, Ambassador Morgenthau has offered to
