Sultan Has No Intention of Preventing

Washington, Dec. 3O.-The depart
ment of state recently received from
the United States minister at Constan-
tinople information that the minister
of foreign affairs of Turkey had in
formed him that the Turkish govern

erican citizens, whether Jews or Chris

Boston Dec 90--An official test of
the Tule life preservers used on the
wrecked steamer Portland has recently
been completed by the local inspectors
of the steam vessel inspection service
of the United States, and the results
are contained in a report forwarded to
Washington. This report upholds the
use of this style of life preservers, bas-
ing it's position on tests which were ap-
piled to one of the Tule preservers,

Merritt Company Arrived at Santiago to

Merritt Company Arrived at Santiago to
Raise the Reina Mercedes.
Santiago de Cuba, Dec. 30.-The Mer-
rift & Chapman Wrecking Companys
outfit arrived here today to raise the
former Spanish cruiser Reina Merce-
des, which was sunk in the channel
leading to Santiago harbor during the
first bombardment of the Santiago for
ti1cations by Admiral SIMPSONS
squadron.
The wrecking outfit has arrived none
too soon. For several weeks the cruis-
er, which projects at least 100 feet
over the edge OF the channel bank, has
been slipping perceptibly toward deep
water, and she would ultimately have
blocked the channel, The superin-
tendent expects to be able to raise her
in two weeks. When raised, the YES
sci will probably be worth to the I'm
tied States government more than
$3.50. 600, and a great danger to Santi-
ago shipping will be removed.
