Did the sultan Kill Himself .

Mankind will be apt TO remain In doubt
for some time whether the deposed Sultan
really committed suicide or whether he
was assassinated, according to the old Turk
ish custom which has been illustrated
even within the present century. 1t
is the official announcement that
he committed suicide; but the fact of its
being official does not give assurance of its
trustworthiness The eonspirators of the
Divan had learned that the news of the
stranehng of the dethroned sovereign
would not be received with satisfaction by
the governments of Europe. The Emperor
of Russia had instructed his ambassador
at Constantinople to look after the safety
of ABDUL AzIZ and Queen VICTORIA had
sent similar instructions TO the British
Ambassador. The Turkish Minister Of
Foreign Affairs was so stirred up by the
reports sent abroad on the subject, that he
telegraphod to the Turkish representatives
at all the courts of Europe hasty
denial of the malevolent Iumors CONCERN
ing the deposed monarch's fate" But IL
would not be out Of keeping with Turkish
tradition if, at the time this despatch was
sent our, ABDUL AZIZ had already been
disposed Of The very day after his de-
thronement we received a despatch, which
was Immediately contradcted, that he
had been suddenly overtaken by death.
1t will be hard TO penetrate the mysteries
of the palace of Tcheragan, in which he
has been confined since his overthrow.
There is no doubt that, II he was assassi-
mated, the new government would deny IT,
and trust to the conceaiment of the fact.
Whatever may have been the fact, Il is
certain that ABDUL AZIz must have been
almost distracted by the troubles which
preceded his dethronement; and. there
fore, the account Of his suicide is not en-
tirely incrediblp
