Rumor Regarding the Kaiser's Visit
to Turkey---Will Help The Sultan.
In Consideration of Concessions the
Emperor Agrees 10 Guarantee the
Integrity Of the Sultan's Asiatic
Possessions.

Berlin, November 5.-The Frankfort
Zeitung says it learns from well-tn-
formed source that the visit OF the En-
peror William to Turkey led to an agree
ment by which Germany undertakes to
support the integrity of the Sultan 5
Asiatic possessions, for which Ger
many will receive commercial and in
dustrial privileges. The paper adds
that it Is believed this agreement is
tantamount to an armed alliance be-
tween the two countries.
A number of rumors as to the real
objects of Emperor Williams visit to
Constantinople and the Holy Land
have been in circulation ever since the
intention of his majesty to visit the
Orient was announced, about year
ago. These alleged purposes included
important railroad concessions to Ger
many, the ceding of territory in Syria
to Germany for colonizing purposes,
the eeding of the port Of Hafia, in Pal
estine, the ceding OF the Island Of
Rhodes to Germany, and the granting
to Germany the right to plant a large
German colony along the whole front
Ter at Tripoli. This last agreement. 1t
was added, was intended to protect the
sultan against FGeHCH tHtioat huiSiiLS
across the Tunis-Tripoli frontier. and
would also avoid granting Germany a
concession in Asia Minor. which, it IS
added. would induce Russia to demand
compensation.
