CONSTANTINOPLE July s, 1Ss7-{De-
layed in transmission. The Ambassa-
doris of the powers having been rein
structed by their respective governments
about the despatch of another not to the
Turkish Government, reiterating their
demand for an explicit reply on the
Greco-Turk frontier question. it is though
probable they may consider their govern
ments to recall them and organize a
naval demonstration, pointing out the
futility of sending notes which fail to
impress the Porte. urging that demon
stration is necessary to compel Turkey to
yield, and holding that otherwise progress
towards the conclusion of peace is not ex-
pected.
The Turkish Dardanelles Squadron has
been ordered to make ready to proceed to
the Island of Crete and to take on board
provisions for three months. The trade
also orders all the officers of that squad
ron to rejoin their ships within three
days.
Saadi Bey has been appointed Mutes-
sarin of Urfa, Asiatic Turkey. AS he is
suspected of Young Turkey affiliations
this is tantamount to sending him into
exile.

M'KINLEY'S SUMNER.

WASHINGTON, July g. 1S97.-President
Mckinley will spend most of his vacation
on the shores of Lake Champlain. He
will cave Washington on August and
go direct to Lake Champlain. Burlington,
VT, will be his nearest town. His party
will consist of members of the Presiden-
tiaI family, of Vice-President and Mrs.
Hobart, Secretary Alger and family.
Secretary and Mrs. Porter and probably
of several other members of official So
ciety. The President will make quite a
prolonged stay, lasting several weeks at
least. He has no plans perfected beyond
this, but has said he would take West
ern trip in July. provided Congress adj
journed in time.
The Presidents summer plans were in
formally talked over with the members
of the Cabinet today If Congress ad-
journs in season, he will go to Chicago
to attend the Logan Day ceremonies on
the 23d instant, and it is possible that he
may seize the opportunity to go further
west as he is not expected at the Cham
plain resort before August |.
selection of the Lake Champlain region
as the place for sending the heated term
was owing originally to a suggestion
from Secretary Porter, and upon Secre-
tary Cages hearty endorsement of the
place the manager of one the lake hotels
was summoned to Washington and the
conditions of the Presidents stay were
definitely arranged The hotel is about
five miles distant from Plattsburg on the
New York side of the lake and the
Adirondacks are easy of access from
