ABDUL'S REIGN ENDS;
BROTHER ON THRONE,
Old Sultan. Charged with Many Afro
cious Crimes. Shorn Of Power by
Young Turks, Bows to
Will Of Allah.

Constantinople.-Th reign of Abdul
Hamid II. ended Tuesday with his
deposition and the accession of his
brother, Mehemmed Reschad Effendi,
as Mehmed ", variation of Maho-
met, it being considered inappropriate
to assume the precise name of the
prophet.
Mehmed v. is the thirty-fifth sover.
eign of Turkey, in male descent, of
the House of Osman, the founder of
the empire, and the twenty-ninth
sultan since the conquest OF Con.
stantinople.
The two houses of parliament,
meeting as national assembly, in
the forenoon approved the decree of
deposition, which was read by the
Sheik-ul-Islam, chief of he ulemas
and supreme Judge on ecclesiastical
questions.
Charges Against Abdul.
The document recites that Abdul
Hands acts were contrary to the
sacred law, and set forth a long list
of crimes, the whole making a terri.
BILE indictment. The firing of 1O1
guns announced to the waiting PEG.
pie that new sultan had been pro-
claimed.
The ceremonies connected with the
transfer Of the power were simple.

Ancient City.

From beneath the overburden of
earth and rubbish which has been ac-
cumulating for ages, Prof. Flinders
Petrie. in his first year Of work Of
excavating the ruins of Memphis, has
laid bare many Of the secrets Of that
great city Of ancient glory, which un.
til his explorations began had been
more completely hidden than those
Of any other city Of the distant past.
The focus of the city was the great
temple of Ptah, or Hephestos, and the
sacred grove, or Ternenos, which in
closed it. The massive wall which
surrounded the temple was traced
piece by piece. although but a single
corner was above ground, all the rest
being buried to a great depth by
debris Of every description.
Evidences Of the pillaging hand Of
Rameses were visible everywhere.
Some Of the sculpture revealed was
Of great delicacy. throughout the
temple areas were found about 100

The following chips of Swedish gov
eminent railway statistics ought to be
interesting reading matter to those
who clamor for the naturalization OF
the American railways: The Swedish
government. borrowed $93,960.000 to
build her state railways. In 1906 the
railway traffic gave surplus of 3d.
671,000. The interest on the 500, $780,
900 being $3,1O5, 900, the government
cleared $1,566,00O. Then came a uni
versal demand from the employees for
higher wages, and conservative raise
was granted. This increased the ex-
penses SO that the surplus was only
just about equal to the interest on the
bonded Indebtedness in 1907. But in
1908 the surplus was reduced to ST.
$4,000, or $1,S36,00v less than the
interest, and the government of
course had to pay the latter amount
out of receipts from other sources. It
must be added that the railways of
Sweden are carefully managed.
