FRENCH STATEMENT OF THE CASE
Abdul Hamid Accused of DuplIcity in
Dealing with NJ. Constants.

Paris, France.-A high official of
the Foreign Office said that the exact
situation at Constantinople is as fol
lows:
THE Sultan, at the last audience
which he granted to NJ. Constans, the
French Ambassador, agreed to send
the latter the same or on the following
day a document giving complete sat
isfaction to France regarding the
claims OF French citizens in the mat
ter of the quays, in accordance with
the terms arranged between the Sui
tan and NJ. Constans verbally. In
stead of doing this the Sultan sent NJ.
Constans a document in which the
terms differed essentially from those
arranged at the audience. Thereupon
NJ. Constans declined to negotiate
any further or to hold other commu-
pications with the Porte, and re-
ferred the matter to the French For
eign Office. AS the matter stands re-
lations between NJ. Constans and the
Porte are broken off, but France and
Turkey are still in diplomatic rela-
tions through the Turkish Ambassa.
dor at Paris.
the bultdh uOtS HOt Keep llle
promises which he made at the last
audience continued the official, 1--WE
shall have TO recall NJ, Constans and
send the Turkish Ambassador his
passports"
Replying to a question, the Foreign
Office official said:
NO naval action on the part of
France has vet been decided on. The
stories in the papers to the effect that
French warships are under orders to
be in readiness to proceed to the Bos-
porus have no foundation in fact. Such
n measure might, of course, become
necessary, but that eventually has
not yet been considered by the French
Government"
