Why the Trouble Arises With the Ottoman Government
The dispute centers on damages for American property seized at Harpoot in 1894 and Turkey’s refusal to permit a U S consulate there to safeguard interests. The Turkish stance ties to the 1878 treaty and fears of exposing abuses of Christians in the Armenian districts. A consular appointment has been contested, with Norton traveling to Smyrna after initial refusals.
