One Result of the Franco.T Turkish
&.{ Dispute.

Washington, Aug. 128.-It is feared
In official circles here that the with
drawal of the French ambassador
from Constantinople marks the disso-
luton of the concert of European pow
ers under which the integrity of Tur-
key was guaranteed. BY the treaty. of
Berlin all the great powers of Europe
subscribed to an agreement to refrain
from any act that would tend to the
destruction of the Ottoman empire.
This action was taken to forestall
what were conceived to be the designs
of Russia to seize on Turkish territory
and Russia herself was led to sub
scribe to the agreement by force of
circumstances. Although several
times severely strained, notably by
such events as the last war between
Turkey and Greece, this pact has so
far endured without amendment but
it is apprehended now that if the ac-
tion of France is carried out to the
extreme indicated in the dispatches
each of the other signatory powers will
feel obliged in self protection to dis
regard the agreement and press upon
Turkey the vast financial and other
claims that have accumulated in the
past quarter of a, century with re-
suit of disrupting the present Turkish
government.

SAVED BY VICTIMS FATHER.

Fort Smith, Ark, Aug. 2S.-Louis
Smith, the 55-year-old negro whom a
crowd tried to reach in the county
Jail here Monday night, was saved
from lynching through the pleading
of the father of Lucy Watson, the lit
tie white girl assaulted by Smith.
The assault was committed a week
ago but did not become generally
known until Monday night. AS the
news spread that the negro was con-
fined in the county Jail mob, com
posed principally of railroad employees,
started for the courthouse, where a
council was held as to the best means
of obtaining possession of Smith. Be-
fore plan had been agreed upon Wat
son appeared and advised the mob to
permit the law to take it's course.
This unlocked for action on the part
of the father put a damper upon the
mob's intention. In the meantime
Smith was hurried by the police from
the f1imsey Jail to the federal prison.
