ANGEL AVOIDED THE TRAP
Tells Of He Duel Of Wits With a Spy
Of the Sultan Of Turkey
at constantinopIe.

In the diplomatic service, a man
must always keep his wits keen and
ready for use. A case In point is sup
piled by James Burrill Angel. in his
"Reminiscences" In this anecdote OF
his sojourn In Constantinople. as min
lister from the United States:
The spies Of the sultan were every.
where. A Turk told me that the spy
business was the most prosperous OF
all. was assured that spies were
sitting at the dinner tables OF the prin.
cipal hotels. 10 overhear the CONVEX
sation Of the guests. With one against
whose visits had been warned. had
an amusing interview.
He was handsome, dIgnifled Arab.
who had been in England long enough
TO talk English fairly well. He intro
duced himself to me by saying he had
been mayor OF Jerusalem. and was
now trying 10 procure from the gov
eminent a concession for the CON
struction OF n system Of waterworks
for that city.
He regretted--so he informed me-
to find that the government was so
corrupt that he had no hope OF secur-
ing the concessions except by bribing
whole row OF officials. II refreshed
him to turn from those representa-
tives OF corrupt and tyrannical gov.
eminent and pay his respects to the
representative OF pure and honest
democracy.
Surprising his object to be TO draw
from me some remark derogatory to
the Sultan. which he could report 20
my disadvantage. remarked that a
monarchy presided over by Just SOY.
ereign was very edifying spectacle.
and that even in republics It must
be admitted that corrupt men were
sometimes found In Office.
He seemed surprised. and proceed
ed to eulogize republican government.

lightened monarchies.
The conversation ran on in this way
for half an hour. when he babe me
