Leipsic, Dec. S.-The suit instituted
by Representatives of the Turkish gov
eminent against the Reichsbank to
compel that institution to surrender
S4,5O0,000 which it has on deposit to
the credit Of the deposed sultan, Abdul

When Abdul Hammed entrusted his
personal fortune to the Reichsbank
he exacted a solemn agreement that
the funds should not be withdrawn
except on presentation OF an order
of his hand and seal. After he was
driven from the throne the new gov
eminent attempted to recover these
funds and laid before the bankers
what purported to be letter from

withdrawal.
The order, however, did not bear

that their customer, being practically
a prisoner, was unable to act Of his

Mr.. Merrill has been stationed at
Santa Rosa Island engaged in the for
LITIGATION work now being done on
Fort Pickens. under Captain J. T..
Turtle. He is a civilian engineer en-
gagged by the army, and the best tes-
t,mony can be given as to his ability
is the fact that he has been selected
from a large number Of engineers to
aid in the work of raising the sunken
ship.
Work to Be Done.
Since Congress made the appropria-
ton Of funds for raising the Maine,
several plans havs been suggested by
expert engineers to Col. Black, the
senior member Of the board named to
take charge Of the work. In telling
Of his future work today, Mr.. Merrill
said: II do not know much about
what win be done at thiS time. I
have been ordered 10 report to Cap

From what ! have heard, I think
the plan Is to build q coi1erdam around
the wreck and then pump cut the
water. II this il done. it vii! give
the workmen q chance to see the con-
ton of the wreck and make the work
Of raising the hull much easier. The
iron wreck is now lying in something
like 20 feet OF water and is supposea
to be sunk in 10 or II feel of mud.
Under the mud there is iaye: Of

Is fastened.

o'clock for Havana. We are engaged
in the work of raising the Maine,
and not in merely working out plan
for the work. As to the length OF
time that will be required to complete
the task. I am unable to say. I sup
pose. however. that it will be quite
q dimcult undertaking. as the ship is
