CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. 27.--Mar-
tial law was officially proclaimed here
today, and courtmartial under the
administration Of Zekli Bey as chief
judge advocate, was established. AL
causes involving the rights of citizens
are being tried before Zekki Bey.
One hundred and ninety three ar

was the former minister of the in

revolt against the recognized govern
ment"
Many more arrests We're made today
and the prisons are rapidly becoming
crowded. Strong guards have been
placed about the jails to prevent aid
being given the prisoners. Extra pre-
cautions seemed needless, however as
leaders of the party of progress are
ruling with an iron hand and have
completely subdued the adherents of
kiamil Pasha.
Mahmud Shefket Pasha, the new
grand vizier, is acting in accord with
the committee Of union and progress.
Daily consultations are held between
members of the committee and the cab

That the Turkish government Is pre-
pairing to carry on the war is shown
by the fact that negotiations have been
opened with the Deutsche bank for
10000 000.
Reports were current here that fight
ing had broken out between the Turk
ish and Bulgarian armies facing each
other at the Chatalja lines. No sounds
of a pombardment could be heard in
this city, however.

tremendous amount of business to dis
pose of in a short time leaders in the
house and senate today awolle to the
fact that they must put on the high
speed from now until March 4. Not a
single one of the big appropriation bills
has so far been agreed to by both
houses. The senate is awaiting action
by the house on a number of these
measures, and the latter promises to be
the storm center of legislative activity
from now on.
Owing to obstructive tactics in the
house, that body has not passed the
river and harbor appropriation bill, and
this measure probably win not be acted
upon finally by that body until tomor-
row. There are more to be acted upon
by the house, the fertilization bill, the
naval bill, the sundry civil bill, the
diplomatic appropriation bill, and the
public building bill. besides other inn
pOrtant legislation. Q
Minority Leader Mann has threat
ened to conduct filibuster if the

project, and it was said today that the
opposition to this measure was still de-
termined TO prevent it's consideration.
