Forces Of the Young Turks Cap
ture ConstantInOp|e After
I Hot Engagement
FIGHTING ZONE IS LIMITED
Operations Confined to Vicinity
Of YiIdiz Kiosk, Residence
l.. of the Sultan.

Constantinople, April "a. = The
forces Of the Young Turks entered
Ccnstantinople and after severe fight
ing in the streets Of the city, in which
It is estimated 1000 men were killed
or wounded, the Turkish capital was
completely in their possession. The
constitutionalists are patrolling the
city and order is being maintained.
The foreign residents are believed to
be in no danger.
The sultan Is safe at Yildiz Kiosk.
A number of shells dropped within
the confines Of the palace, whereupon
the commander Of the forces there
hoisted the white flag and at once
opened negotiations to surrender. Yil-
dig Kiosk is completely surrounded by
the men from Saloniki.
Field guns, heavy artillery and ma
chine guns were used by both sides
and at some of the local barracks,
notably Taschkischla, the Constan-
tinople troops put up a resolute de-
tense. No mercy was shown to the
troops who led in the uprising of
April IA.
A party of sixty American tourists
who were in the city were escorted
In safety by a detachment of troops
to steamer in the harbor. The Amer
leans remaining in Constantinople are
all SAFE
Several foreigners are said to have
been wounded. Among them is Fred
erick Moore, a newspaper man from
New Orleans, who was shot in the
neck. Mr.. Moore's injury, however, is
not serious and Ambassador Leish-
man has arranged to have him taken
to the French hospital. Another
American correspondent named Booth
was slightly wounded in the head.
Fighting Began Early in Day.
Heavy rife firing shortly after s
o'clock in the morning, mingled with
the occasional rattle of artillery from
the heights surrounding Yildiz Kiosk,
marked the elimination of the expect
ed clash between the troops of the
Constantinople garrison and the army
of investment. The fighting started
in the southwest portion Of Pera, near
Yildi2 Kiosk, between the troops un-
der General Mahmoud Schefket, com
manding the army of investment, and
part of those loyal to the sultan. The
Saloniki troops first attacked the
Matchka and Taschkischla barracks,
south of Yildiz Kiosk, where they met
stubborn resistance. The casualties
there were heavy.
Despite the fighting excellent order
prevailed in the city for a while, but
later a panic ensued and thousands
began fleeing. Detachments of mill
tary cadets, commanded by officers Of
the constitutionalists, are protecting
the foreign embassies and every pos
sible measure has been taken to pre-
vent disturbances in the city. Enver
Bey, one of the Young Turks leaders,
sent company of infantry to guard
each legation.
At 10 O'clock the firing had almost
ceased, but at long intervals the field
guns could be heard, together with
the scattering fire of heavy artillery.
The troops within the city brought
comparatively few guns into action.
They dropped some shells in Scutari,
on the other side of the Bosphorus,
and caused considerable disorder
among the Investing forces.

New Ltne InauGurated Between France
 And United States.
 New York, Feb. 1.-The new pos tai sea service between this country and France was inaugurated today on the French line steamer La Bretagne. sailing for Havre.
 Postmaster Edward M. Morgan. of New York and P. Faguet, general agent ' of the Compagnie Generale Trans Atlantique here, both expressed themselves today enthusiastically about the new service and are hopeful of its. success and permanent estab- lishment between the two counties.
 It requires the installation of two Federal clerks and two French gov ernment clerks aboard the LM MBretagnN to handle the mails. For number of years the United States government has been trying to get the French government to adopt the service and the Cunard Line is now the only one without it, according to Postmaster Morgan.
 Tt will be Of great benefit in facili- tating the movement of the French mail in this country" said Mir. Nor gan. Under the new system, all the mail is sorted aboard ship and ready for distribution upon arrival We will be able to save from eight to ten hours time in New York City delivery and twenty-four hours through to the Pacific coast''
