Cabinet In Special Session.

Constantinople, April 22.-The cabi-
net held a special meeting lasting four
hours, giving special attention to the
negotiations, which the ministers have
taken in hand on behalf of the sultan
with the military members of the
Young Turks committee, among whom
are Husni Pasha, the commander of
the Third army corps, his division
commanders and Izzet Pasha, chief of
the general staff.
The sultan's primary demand was to
remain as constitutional sovereign,
with all the spiritual powers of the
califate, with liberal allowances for
his household while he also asked
minor guarantees which it would not
be difficult to grant. The demand of
the committee of union and progress
was that the sultan offer no resistance
whatever and submit Internationally.
The Saloniki committee, which is
the backbone of the whole progressive
movement by the Young Turks, is
largely military, and it's most impor-
tant civilian members are with the
army. Some of the members Of the
cabinet, including Rifaat Pasha, the
foreign minister, are active constitu-
tionalists.
The grand viZier and his cabinet are
quite prepared to resign at once. In
fact, they have only been held in of
flee by the feeling that they may be
able to avert a civil war or prevent
acts of violence, which would bring
about unwelcome Intervention by the
powers.
The members of the Young Turks
committee are divided among them
selves. The radical faction insists
that there shall be no compromise,
that the sultan must be deposed and
that Yusuf Izzedin be named as his
successor, that the whole administra-
tion should be cleansed, that no prom
Use of Abdul Hamid's can be trusted
and that to re-establish the system
of ten days ago would be to settle
nothing.
The conservatives urge that the
deposition of the sultan would only be
possible after severe fighting, that it is
uncertain whether the troops under
the control of the committee would
uphold such an act with their bayo-
nets, that the wavering soldiers Of the
First army corps, to the number OF
25,0OO or 10000, now garrisoning the
city would be infiamed and revolt.

in 1906. Mr.. Weeks Is a resident of
Middletown, where he has extensive
business interests. He was born in
Brooklyn in 1854 and removed to Mid

San Stefano, Turkey, April 22.-It Is

Mombasa, British East Africa, April
22.-EX-President Theodore Roosevelt
arrived here on board the steamer
Admiral in the best of health, as were
all the members Of his party.
The Admiral entered Kilindini har-
Dor flying the American flag at her
fore and main masts. She dipped the
German ensign while passing the Brit
ish cruiser Pandora, whose rails and
masts were manned by cheering sail
ors. The Pandora saluted the ex-
president, who was on the bridge
watching with interest the coming
into port.
The people of Mombasa were in a
great state of expectancy, and the first
word of the sighting Of the ship
brought them in crowds to vantage
points where they might catch a
glimpse Of the distinguished visitor.
The Admiral, however, came slowly
up to the harbor, and it was dark
when the eX-president, accompanied
by his son Kermit and the captain,
made landing.
They were brought ashore in the
commandant's surf boat and carried
to place of shelter in chairs on ma

SEIZED BY CANADA
Alleged Yankee POaCher
Taken by Cruiser.
GASHED BY MACHINE GUN FIRE
Canadian Warship Kestrel Swoops
Down on American Schooner
Charles Levi Woodbury.
Near Vancouver Island.

Vancouver, B. c., April 22.-The Do
minion government cruiser Kestrel ar
rived in port here, having in charge
the American halibut fishing schooner
Charles Levi Woodbury., which she
captured after firing five rounds from
her machine guns and threatening to
sink the alleged poaching vessel unless
she surrendered.
The action took place in northern
waters alleged to be contiguous to
Canada.
Bullets tore through the air in the
direction of the Woodbury. each time
the machine gun was fired as the ves-
sci headed at full speed from the west
coast Of Vancouver island and pointed
toward the middle of the Pacific.
The last series of shots caused the
American to lose his nerve. The gun
was pointed at the fish boat, which
was then at distance of about 200
yards and still making for the open
sea as rapidly as possible.
The bullets ripped the mainsail Of
the schooner, and one or two knocked
splinters off the mainmast. Captain
Sinclair feared that he would be sunk
right there If he did not stop. At the
same moment the second gun of the
Kestrel was swung across her deck to
get into range of the fishing boat. The
Woodbury's engines were then stopped
and her sails, gashed by the British
bullets, hauled down.
But even then the American captain
would not willingly surrender. He de-
clined to fasten a 'hawser about his.
vessel, but few minutes later an uffi-
Ger and three men from the Kestrel
boarded the Woodbury. and took
charge.
Captain Newcombe of the KestreI
declares he has a clear case against
the American vessel. He says that
when he first sighted her she was
within mile of Seal island.
Captain Sinclair of the Woodbury.
apparently did not notice the arrival
Of the Kestrel ON the scene until the
government vessel was within about
three miles. Then the American ran
along picking up his five dories, the
fishermen cutting their gear without
wasting time to pull a fathom Of it in.
The cruiser gradually overhauled the
American schooner, and by the time
they were four and quarter miles of
shore the Kestrel was alongside and
the captains of the two vessels were
conversing.
The first round Of the machine gun
was fred when the race had been well
begun. When Captain Newcombe got
abreast of the American he opened
communication through speaking
trumpet.
stop or l will put hole through
you," called Newcombe
''I don't think So" said Sinclair in a
reply that came plainly over the wa
ter.
Then the gun went off, and little
section of the Woodbury's sail was In
shreds. When the second gun Of the
Kestrel had been unswiveled and
trained on the Woodbury., Captain Sin
clair realized that further fight was
useless and surrendered.

BREAKING UP THE ICE JAM.
New York State Engineers Use Dyna-

Niagara Falls, N. Y, April 22.-With
the approval of the war department at
Washington and of Governor Hughes
efforts were made today by New York
state employees to dislodge the great
ice jam in the Niagara river by the use
of dynamite.
Engineers from the state department
of public works started at Youngs-
town and are working up to Lewiston.
Five hundred pound charges of dyna-
mite are being used.
The ice jam is twelve miles long and
sixty feet high, and 1t will take the en-
gineers all day and probably all to-
morrow to break it up.
Residents and property owners all
along the banks from Queenstown to
Lake Ontario are panic stricken, fear
ing the sudden breaking Of the jam.

during the past few days has uprooted
huge trees and carried away dozens of
docks and lighthouses, would, it is
feared, In a sudden rush erase acres Of

Governor George L. Lilley, then con-

year by declaring that manufacturers
of submarine boats had used improper
means to influence legislation. The
charges were declared unfounded after
congressional investigation. Mr.. Lilley
was born in Oxford, Mass, in 1859.
He was elected a member of the Con-

In congress from 1903 until his in

smiling broadly. The crowds on shore
pressed eagerly forward to see the
