a bad speculation for Turkey, and.
second, on account of the financial diff
ficulty involved, as the Ottoman gov
ernment had no hope that the Paris
market would take up a loan to cover
the purchase M. Constans then gave
the Ottoman government until Mon
day ttoday) to issue an trade granting
the quays complete full rights and in
deminty for the two years during
which the company had been deprived
of those rights. That NJ. Constans'
bluff was successful is shown by the
haste with which the sultan issued the
trade on Saturday, two days before the
time limit expired.
The whole story of what caused the
sultan to give up so quickly is told in
these two dispatches:
Constantinople, Aug. 22-The French
ambassador. NJ Constans, has notified
the sultan's first secretary that all
diplomatic relations between France
and Turkey are broken off, and that
the ambassador has informed his gov
ernment to this effect NJ Constans
communicated directly with the sui
tan, because the latest negotiations
were transacted with the sultan per-
sonally.
Two questions have caused the
break between the two nations. They
have been pending for some time. One
is the affair of the French Quay com
pany on. Constans), on behalf of his
government. demanding that Turkey
purchase for 40,0000 900 francs the
quays built by the French company.
The other is the claim of Freuchmen
against the porte, the amount of which
was fixed aud payment promised long
ago.

Cassara has sailed from Toulon for
Turkish waters, and four other war
ships are under orders to follow her
Immediately The foreign Office will

port that the ships are to menace
Constantinople
In spite of this fact the approaching
visit of the Gar to France over
shadows the interest taken in any pos
sibility of war with Turkey The
apathy of the public is reflected in the
newspapers. Generally the view is
taken that the matter will soon be set

received the news of the United States
supreme courts decision in the Four

Philippines were American territory,
and that the imposition of duties on
articles imported into the United

proper. The announcement OF the de-
cision caused great excitement and
jubiIation among the merchants ana
general public here. Representatives
of the principal business houses say
it will revolutionize the entire trade
of the orient, and the civilians ana
military men are pleased at the pros
pect of sending presents home with
out having to pay duty on them.
The civil authorities here have not
vet formed an opinion on the subject,
but they think the law only applies
to goods going to the United States,
and are anxiously awaiting an Off
cial communication on the subject,
since, If the decision holds here, new
means for obtaining funds to run the
government will be necessary.
