of things. The Conference will recognise
IN the Porte a sincere desire to restore order,
and to establish a legal understanding with
the Powers.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Aug. lit is rumored
that the question of proclaiming Arab
Pasha a rebel is now in a fair way of being
arranged. The greatest good humor pre-
walls on both sides at the last sittings of the
Conference
Co-NsrANTINopLE, Aug. S-The Porte
will mobilize an army of 10000 men for
service in Egypt. The impression prevails
that the sitting on Thursday will be the last
meeting of the Conference. 1t is believed
at that session notiicati n will be given
that Arab Pasha will at once be proclaimed
a rebel. and that arrangements will be made
between Turkey and England in regard to
the dispatch of troops. No troops will leave
before then.
On August 4th a full list of a new Min
istry was cabled, but subsequently, without
any explanation we find the matter still un-
settled. On the 9th President Grevy placed
the formation of a new Cabinet in the hands
of VI Du Clerc, who appears TO have been
successful, although we are without in
formation a to who his colleagues are.
The latest cablegram is as toll VS.:
PARIS, August S.--Du CleIc, the new
Premier, read his statement in the Chamber
to-day. In addition to Whist was outlined in
the Monday dispatches. he said it was the
first duty Of the Government TO declare how
it regarded the recent vote refusing Egyp-
tan credits, in consequence of which vote
the late Ministry had resigned and the pre-
sent one assumed office. The new Min
istry considered il by no means as an act OF
abdication, but a vote of prudence and re-
serve, and would loyalty accept its spirit.
There were internal questions, but the Gov
eminent would consider them during recess,
and would do IFS utmost TO obtain a liberal
and progressive solution 1t would also be
the object of the Government to unite and
concrliate the various sections of the Re-
publican majority.
Clemenceau declared his lack of conf
dence in the present Ministry. The session
of the Climbers will probably close to-
morrow.

suppression of foreign politics. Bnt there is
not a single public man of any value who be-
lIeves in such-a resolution. By that vote
the Chamber simply declared itself incom-
petent from ignorance. AS to Turkey and
England the worst thing the Sultan can do
for himself and the Ottoman Empire is to
play false to the London Government I'M
less, of course. it is made perfectly clear that
Russia will assist her late enemy.
