Struggle Between Centuries-Old Faith
and Western Ideas of Progress
Likely to Be Settled By
Force of Arms.
NEGOTIATIONS TOWARD COMPROMISE
WITHOUT SUBSTANTIAL EFFECT
Sultan Refuses to Leave Throne, But Is Wiling to
Make Some Concessions to the
Young Turks.

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 2l.-The
conflict between Mussumau picty and
the political ideas of the west has
brought the Turkish people to tho verge
OF civil war.
Zeal for the faith has been unlooscd
and the adjustment Of the sultan S re.
inti0ns to tho committee of uuion and
progress viii probably only postpone The
armed struggle between the believers in
Tho ancient teachings of the prophets
and those urging the teachings of west
ern Europe.
The cabinet debated the situation fer
four hours today. giving special aitcn.
tion TO the negotiations that the minis
ters have taken in hand. on behalf Of
the sultan, with the military members
OF the committee.
The sultan S primary demand is 20
remain the constitutional sovereign,
wlth all the spiritual powers Of the cali.
iate and liberal allowances for his
household.
lie also asks for various minor guar
anteeS. which it would not be difficult
10 grant
The demand of the committee is that
N u.
ana submit unconditionally.
Odds Against Sultan.
The Salonilii committee, which is the
backbone of the whole progressive
movement is largely military and its
most important civilian members arc
with the army. Some of the cabinet
members, including Rifaat Pasha. the
foreign minister. are active Coustitu-
iionalists Tcwfik Pashac the grand
NlZler, who personally is most agreeable
to the sultan and to military men, and
who rs looked upon as both benevolent
and honest. has undertaken negotiations
Tor compromise. lie has not been able
TO proceed very far.
The grand vizicr and his cabinet arc
prepared 10 resign if the committee asks
their Withdrawal Indeed. they are
anxious 10 resign and have only been
held IN office by the feeling that they
may be able TO avert Il civil war or pre-.
vent acts of violence that would cause
foreign Intervention.
Committee Divided.
Tho committee is without definite
limits. Its adhcrcntS are divided among
themselves. The Radical faction in.
Sists that there shall be no compro.
mise; that the sultan must he deposed,
and Il reasonable prince. for instance.
Nusit 1zzodIm named rs his successor;
that the whole administration be
that no promise of Abdul
Hamid S can be trusted. and that TO re-
the system Of Ten days ago
would be to settle nothing.
The Conservatives declare the deposi-
ton of the sultan would effectively be
possible after severe fighting; that it
Is uncertain whether troops under the !
control of the committee would uphold /
such an act with their bayonets; that /

which something nature plainly points

that no man commits either q crime or

they are hard to distinguish-a De-
