WARRINGTON, Jan. 15.-Ths Turkish

jects, in his own territory BY any for.
eign society or individuals, however re.

ever allowed, especially when the
collections are made on the strength of
speeches delivered in public meetings BY
irreconcilable foes of the Turkish race
and religion and on the basis of false
accusations that Turkey repudiates.
Besides. the sublime porte is mindfal
Of the true interests Of its subjects, and,
distinguishing between the real state Of
things and the calumnies and the wild
exaggeration Of interested or fanatical
parties, will, as it has done heretofore
under its own legitimate control, allevi-
ate the wants Of all Turkish subjects
living in certain provinces. irrespective

THE RETURN OF BYRNES

Il Surprises New Yorkers, Who wonder
"a. What IL in tho Wind.
NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-The friends OF
ex-Chief Byrnes were surprised when
he returned last week. He had ar.
ranged to stay abroad until summer.
There, was, it is said, a good reason
for his return. but it has been kept very
quiet. According to report current,
his presence here was ordered
by q person high in political
councils in this state and
there is . strong likelihood that
Mr.. Byrnes will be restored to power
as commander Of the New York police,
not only Of this city but of Greater New
York. Mr.. Byrnes' object in going to
Europe was to study the methods Of
police work there and to pick up hints
that might be valuable in organizing .
police force to guard Greater New
York. He obtained such information,
and made many valuable connections
which will be Of service in his future
work. ..,
