Responsible for Recent Changes
in Turkish Cabinet.

BERLIN, February l2.-The recent
changes in the Turkish ministry are due
TO the discovery of a plot against the
sultan that had for its object his deposi-
ton. according to the Constantinople cor
respondent Of the Frankfurter Zeitung.
The plan was 10 dethrone the sultan
today while he was riding to the Seam-
ltk celebration and proclaim as sultan
Prince Yussof IzZedin, the eldest son of
the late sultan. The publication OF the
spondence with Prince -Yussof is eX-

The grand vizier. kiamil Pasha was
fully Informed of this conspiracy last week

serve ten years as d common soldier
Owing to the threatened danger the sultan
finally yielded and made the appointment

Unique Oregon Situation When
Chamberlain Comes East.

SALEM. Greg, February 12.-When
Gov. George Chamberlain goes to Wash
ington to be sworn in as United States
senator the acting governor of Oregon
will be a woman. Ii is understood that
Gov. Chamberlain does not intend to re-
linquish the Office OF governor until he
takes the oath as senator. There will
consequently be period during which
he still will be governor after he leaves
the state. In the governors absence
from the state it las been the practice
for the governor s secretary to attend
to official business such as issuing Off
cial documents and signing the gov
ernors name.

is understood, Is slated for a judgeship,

years has been the governors stenog-
rapher. and as the precedent will be fol-
lowed Mrs. Shelton will be the acting

PULP AND PAPER INQUIRY,
Committee Sentiment Favors Tariff
Reduction on Cheap Print.

The special committee on pulp and pa
per investigation held a meeting today
and considered various matters which
might go into their report. including the
tariff question. While no definite con-
clusion was reached. il is understood that
the sentiment Of the committee IS to
recommend a considerable reduction in
the tariff on cheap print paper and prob
ably the removal of the tariff on ground
wood, under such conditions would So
cure the free Importation of both pulp
wood and ground wood pulp from Canada
or forbid export tax or other charge by
Canada upon either pulp wood. ground
wood or print paper 1t is not likely thai
the tariff on sulphite of soda fiber will
be changed.
Although the committee is made up OF
four republicans and two democrats it
is probable that its report and recommen-
dation will be unanimous.

FEW ROADS NOT INVOLVED
TEST OF ACT OF MAY %, 1908

The interstate commerce commission.
by an order made February 8. the con-
tents Of which have not yet been made
public. has directed the United States dis
trict attorney to institute prosecutions
against nearly every street railway COM
pany in the District of Columbia for spe-
cine violations of the act of May q. 1908.
which prohibits overcrowding of cars.
Information to this effect was furnished
by commissioner Lane of the interstate
commerce commission this morning
Inc action was taken upon a recon-
mendotlon made to the commission by
the District electric railway commission
February a. The reports which accom-
panied that recommendation give specific
instances of overcrowding OF cars on the
18th street, Pennsylvania avenue. Column
bia. 7th street. 11th street (AnacostiaD,
lie Droit Park. Maryland 9th street.
Brookland. F street, Mount Pleasant ID
street northeast. Brightwood Georgetown

minion. Falls Church and the Washing
ton. Alexandria and Mount Vernon lines
Directions to District Attorney.
The district attorney is asked by the
interstate commerce commission to bring
proceedings under section 16 of the act.
and to base his prosecutions upon the re-
ports of inspectors forwarded to the COM
mission by the District electric railway
commission December %. 1908
1t Is believed these proceedings will ef-
fectiVely bring the street railway situa-
ton to focus and test the value Of the
act and the effectiveness OF its admins
tration by the interstate commerce COM
mission in the efforts to better street rail-
way conditions In the District. 1t is ex-
planned tnat the effect of prosecutions if
successful, will be to ultimately force the
railway companies to provide additional
cars. clean. safe, sanitary and in good re-
pair, wherever the traffic may indicate
the need for them.
The interstate commission, at its ses-
sion Of February 8, it is understood. also
passed other Important orders affecting
the street railways It WAS stated that
the time Is not yet for making them
public.
Road Officials Silent.
At the offices of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company and the Cap
ital Traction Company it was said that
the officials of those companies had no
statement to make. Until the order of
the interstate commerce commission is
made public they do not care to discuss
the matter
District Attorney Baker admitted that
he had received communication from the
commissioners, but was engrossed in
other matters that he had not had time to
look into the matter. He declined to
say what are the contents of the COM
munication, but stated that. should it re-
fer 10 the Institution OF such suits. he
would refer the matter to his assistant.
