FAMOUS STRAIT OF EUROPE.
Historic Dardanellee and Bosporus
and Their Importance.


and Their Importance.
A glance at any map Of Europe
will show that the Black Sea is alb
solutely inaccessible unless it be
with consent OF the power which
holds the Dardanelles and the Bos-
porus. The Dardanelles, which in
ancient history was known as the
Hellespont, is entered from the
Mediterranean, between Sidd-el-
Bahr on the European side and the
Plains Of Troy on the Asiatic side.
1t is channel thirty-three miles in
length, says the London correspond
ent of the Philadelphia Telegraph,
only four miles broad at its widest
point, and 400 yards in the narrow
est part. The average width is two
miles. In other words, it can be
swept by artillery fire throughout
its course. Then comes the Sea OF
Marmora, which is little better than
large lake. Eight hours slow
steaming brings us from the Darda-
nelles to Constantinople and Bos-
porus. No, the Bosporus is even
more narrow than the Dardanelles.
1t follows tortuous course nine
teen miles in length. Its widest
part, at Buyukdereh bay, only mea-
sures two aud one-fifth miles across,
while at the narrowest point, at
Rumili Hissar, the Bosporus is only
$40 yards wide. Needless to say
that any ship seeking to force its
way through the Bosporus could be
blown out OF the water by the guns
placed on both banks. Thus the
Black sea beyond is shut out from
the Mediterranean.
IL the Bosporos and the Dardan-
Giles we're under the control OF Rus
STA an enormous fleet could be
equipped in the Crimea and in the
various Black Sea ports, and would
be- absolutely secure from any posi-
bility OF attack. There they might
wait in perfect safety for the pro-
pitious moment to sweep down into
the Mediterranean, capture the en-
trance OF the Suez canal, thus cut in
two the shortest route between
England and India, and destroy the
shipping and trade of the Mediter-
ranean. 1t was the danger OF seeing
Russia master Of the Mediterranean
which led to the Crimeau war, and
yet in those days the Suez canal was
not built, SO that the danger Of such
Russian predominance was not SO
great then as it is now. Neverthe-
less, France, England, Italy and
Turkey all fought the Russians,
and, being victorious, THE Bosporus
and the Dardauelles have been
closed ever since to Russian war
ships. Turkey has been appointed
the guardian Of these straits, which
indeed cross her own territory, and
is, SO to speak, the protector Of
western Europe and Of the Mediter-
ranean commerce against the posi-
bility OF Russian aggression. Un-
doubleday this is very hard upon
Russia. Why should this country
be shut of from the Mediterranea I
The reason rests on the extraordin-
airy advantage which the inaccessi-
BILE position OF the Black sea gives
to Russia over all other nations.
Will Russia ever inspire the rest Of
Europe with sufficient confidence
for the powers to consent to allow
her to possess this advantage? This
is the most difficult OF all questions
to solve.

An Er-Confederate Ordeal.

One of the distinguished Confederate
veterans who Went with the delegate on
to Chicago is full of interesting remin-
iscences and instances which he tells
with 4 quizzical smile Here are two
unpublished incidents: During the cere-
monies Of the unwilling of tho monu-
ment to the 5000 private Confederate
soldiers who died in prison 4 wild eyed
old man, IN towering rage, rushed up
to the party in a high state of excite
ment, shook his fist at thom and yelled ::
You have got no business here You
ought all to bo hanged or skinned alive. ;"
lie fixed his eyes upon Senator Hunton,
who smiled kindly ut the infatuated old
party and said: "Oh, we arc all right,
my friend, and don't you forget it. )"
Then two or three Chicago citizens
grabbed tho elderly party and fired him
to the rear
AT the grand banquet in Cincinnati
the party sat together. The band played

Still there was no response in the way
of applause. Then the band opened OH

a smaller circle was cut from the mid

the soft luster of the satin CLEANED

tent been based upon assertions of Mr..
Platt's own
Tho idea in the leaders mind is to
retire gradually from his somewhat
anomalous position and devote himself
exclusively to his personal business
affairs. This idea was formed by Mr.
Plat as long ago as March, but it was
impossible for him to carry it out, be-
cause he had been assailed virulently
by his opponents, and retirement
would have seemed something in the
nature of flight. Since that period Mr.
Plntt has been Strengthening out quite
series of tangles aud notably refrain
ing from having anything TO do with
some local intrigues throughout the
state. This change in tho famed lead
er's general course has been noticed
and commented upon, but it was not
ascribcd to it's true cause, namely, Mr..
Plntts unwilhngness to be implicated
further In tho political warfare. His
plan had been to take up business mat
ters abruptly and quietly ignore poll
ties, but in the interior Of tho empire
state the news of Mr.. 7 lutt's intentions
created q positive panic in tho republic
IN ranks. 1t was represented to the
former senator that if he turned his
back upon tho party at this juncturc it
would be simply impossible to straight
en- out numerous rows and faction con-
tests. The republicans, or, rather,
large section of them, believe il to be
impossible to control the next soma
torial election in New York state with
out tho benefit of Mr.. Platt's experience.
Another argument which had weight
with Mr.. Platt was to the effect that
his retirement now would be construed
uncompliInentarily to himself and his
courage.
Those who have apothcosized Platt rs
tho Svcngali of his party in his state
may not readily credit the statement
that 1t would pay tho ex-senator pc
cuniarily to get out Of politics alto
gether. He cannot do SO at once, but
that he is preparing TO accomplish that
purpose ultimately there can be no
doubt, in spite of the enthusiasm with
which he is now preparing for the COM
mittee fight. Plat does not want to re-
main in politics.
