Sultan and installed on the throne. .
What disposition has been made of
the fallen ruler is not known, but 1t is
believed that he has been conveyed to

tionalists was unexpected. as the gen.
erals commanding the victorious
forces have been giving out interviews
all day, stating that the fate of the sui
tan rested with parliament
1t is understood that at secret
meeting of the committee of notable
men the decision was reached to re-
move the Sultan at once, before ne
could have time to gather strength in
the provinces among the fanatical
tribesmen.
For time this morning 1t appeared
that the fighting for the possession of
the capital was not ended When
Enver Bey demanded the submission
of the artillery in the Scutari barracks
the commander replied:

To this the reply was sent: I'VE

Chefket Pasha then ordered sixty

manded the barracks, and the cruiser
