THRONGS IN STREETS
OPENING OF A NEW
PARLIAMENT.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Dec. IT,
With meeting of the first Ottoman
parliament today, Turkey formally
broke from the despotic rule of
century. The sultan paraded the
city with an elaborate cortege and
when he opened the first session of
the parliament was greeted enthus-
iasticalIy.
Along the entire line of march
which the sultan passed over, cover
ing distance of five miles, the road
ways were covered with sand for the
passage of his majesty. Every regi-
ment of troops i'm Constantinople was
lined along the route of the process
sion of triumph.
The streets were packed with thou
sands of people. These were not only
residents of Constantinople hut in

ing towns and villages. The people
are keyed to the highest pitch of en-
thusiasm over the gaining of that
which they believe will work out the
salvation of their country. and right
a great many wrongs sustained in the
past.
With the assemblage of the par
| lament Turkey made her bow as
full fledged constitutional mon
archy. This assembly was provided
for in the constitution provided by
Sultan Abdul Hamid last July, and
is the first body of its kind to meet
in the empire for over 80 years The
life of its predecessors was brief. but
great hopes are entertained for the
new body.
To-day was proclaimed a general
holiday in honor of the parliament

DEMANDS THE
EVIDENCE
FINALLY SUCCEEDS IN FRAMING
DEMAND UPON PRESIDENT
MESSAGE TO CONGRESS-.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-Chair-
man Perkins of the house special
committee appointed to consider re-
ply to the president in regard to that
part of his message concerning the
secret service, to which the members
of congress are expressly opposed,
reported today.
The report recommends the adop-
tion of resolution calling upon the
president for his understanding of
the evidence on which he based the
statement that members of the house
were principally concerned over the
fact that the secret service men had
been investigating the members
themselves.
The house adopted the recommend
alton of the committee without a
dissenting vote and after but little
discussion. The committee reached
its conclusion only after three days
of work on the matter, the members
having difficulty in reaching agree
