END OF ABDUL BAMID
QUESTION OF FEW
DAYS
SUCCESSION TO THRONE
viii be a Matter Of Vital
Interest TO the Turks.
CBy Associated Press,

VIENNA Aug. l7.-PfiYate advices
4 received here from Constantinople con-
firm the mmors that have been cur
rent for some time regarding the
critical condition OF the sultan's
health. Abdul Hand undoubtedly is
a very sick man. HIS nervous systonl
is IN state Of collapse Eminent
physicians from Paris, Bernl anI this
city have been called into consultation,
but they have been unable to bring
about any lasting relief in the sultan's
condition. The physicians declare
that he can not live mach longer, and
the succession to the throne is likely
to be a matter of vital interest at any
time.
Il is said that the several reform or
ganizations opposed to the present
ruler Of Turkey have decided to COM
bine their efforts in support OF Mehem-
med Reshad Efendi who, according to
Mussnlman law, is the heir apparent.
and the legal successor Of Abdul
Eiamid But in direct violation Of the
law the sultan has nominated his third
son. Prince Mehemmed Burhan Eddin
Enendi, who is now q years Of age, AZ
singuiarly bright and handsome young
man. and whom the sultan loves above
all those other eight children Of his,
who rank as princes and princesses Of
the blood Mehemmed Durham Eddin
is the son Of that one Of all the wives
of the sultan whom he loved best, and
who, from a Turkish point OF view,
was of the most lofty birth. The
young man has been brought up
largely by European tutors and in
European fashion.
Mehemmed Reshad. upon whom the
Young Turkey party has decided for
the throne, is a brother OF the present
sultan and two years his junior He
lives as partial prisoner in one of
the palaces on the Bosporus surround
ed by paid spies and guards of the
sultan, who report TO their master
everything he says and does. He Is
known TO have liberal progressive
ideas, which, Of course, are offensive
to his imperial brother, and are the
reason why the latter has attempted
10 put him olt OF the successorship.
He has conducted himself with great
discretion and prudence. however, and
has furnished no excuse for his as
sassination or Imprisonment
The reform element maintains that
the law of the empire expressly states
that the eldest living male member of
the family shall be the successor to the
throne and that the sultan has no
right to choose his favorite son or
name anyone else to succeed him,
Three Of the saltan's brothers and two
OF his elder sons stand between Me
hemned Burhan and the throne But
the sultan has seen iit to change the
order Of succession and the leading
authorities on the subject Of Koranic
law and doatrine declare there is no
religious obstacle to the change. They
cite as an Illustration Of the fact that
no objection was raised by Mohammes
dan tkeologians either at Constantine
pie or at Cairo when the order of
succession was changed In Egypt,
prIogeniture established. and the then
khedive's eldest son proclaimed heir
to the throne in lieu Of Prince Hahn,
the khedive's cousin,
