THE BAGDAD RAILWAY.
The Convention Regarding IL Far

The Constantnople correspondent Of

The statement that the porte has Of

however, the Germans would lend
financial assistance If the porte grant
ing all they ask, including the Koweit
extension, would expedite the conclu-

Odessa correspondent OF the Times. IL
Is written by a Russian who states
that in January 1900, a German mission
visited kowcit accompanied by the Ger

the name Of the sultan, asked the
shcikh to cede to Il the village Of Kab-

While declaring that the sultan
