i ABDUL HAMID OEPOSED
AND BROTHER i REIGNS !
I
"Red Sultan" Formally Removed
and Reschad Effendi Made Ruler
by Order of Assembly.
EX-MONABCH IS TAKEN AWAY
,
Beported to Have Been Transported
to Asia Minor-101 Guns Sound
End of His Reign.
Abdul Hamid II. , Sultan of Turkey ,
has been deposed from the throne of
the Ottoman Empire by his subjects for
his interference with the progress of
popular government under the consti-
tution granted by him last July , and
his brother. Mehemmed Reschad Ef
fendi now occupies the throne. This
decided change was decided upon : Tues
day b ) ' the national assembly without
a dissenting voice and it was carried
out with the utmost rapidity.- The Sul-
tan is now a prisoner in the hands of
the young Turks and carefully guarded
by his captors.
The formal decree removing Abdul ,
namid from all power of the Turkish
Empire was issued by the Shiek-ul-
Islam , the head of the church , in the
regular form prescribed by the tenets
of the Mohammedan : faith. The city of
Constantinople was alive with excite-
ment and throngs of the populace filled
the streets. A number of arrests were
made , but , the change of sovereigns
was effected without disorder of any
kind. A salute of 101 guns announc-
ing the end of the reign of Abdul
Hamid and the beginning of that of
Mehemmed Reschad Effendi was fired.
The Yildiz garrison surrendered Sun-
day to the constitutional forces in Con-
stai : inople. The commanders of these
batt : lions began sending in their sub-
mission to Mahmoud Schefket Pasha
Saturday night and the whole of the
troops protecting the palace gave their
formal and unconditional surrender
shorfy ? after dawn.
Sultan Abdul llamid had been per-
mitted to remain within the walls of
the Yildiz Kiosk : , where Saturday , in
company ; with his ministers , he waited
for the outcome of the struggle between
his loyal troops and the army of . in
vestment each hour bringing to him
word of a fresh disaster. His army of
defense , whipped , slaughtered and scat-
tered , has vanished and the constitu-
tionalists rule the capital city of Tur-
key and its 1.500,000 inhabitants.
After a day of carnage-in which
fully one thousand soldiers were killed
and many times that number Avounded ,
the streets for hours echoing the , roar
of artillery the rattle of rifle bullets
and the clash of sabers , while walls of
masonry crumbled to dust , battered
down by the shells of big guns-Con-
stantinople Saturday night was at
peace. Calmness and confidence not
known in weeks prevailed , showing
popular belief in the ability of the vic-
tors to keep their pledges of restoring
order.
Mukstar : Bey , leader of the force
which invaded the city , was killed
fighting , and it is certain other brave
men of the constitutionalist forces will
be counted with the dead. Three Amer-
icans , two of them correspondents ,
were wounded during the battle , they
having ventured too near the scene of
combat. All Americans and other for-
eigners , with these exceptions , escaped
harm.

HELD AS SLAYER OF GIRLS.
Man Said to Have Admitted Crime-
Arrest May Clear Many Crimes.
Elmer Carr , declared to be the mur-
derer of Mary Forschuer and Lizzie
Fulhart , has been placed under arrest
in Dayton , Ohio , at the instance of H.
H. Hollenbeck. : assistant State fire mar-
shal , and Bert Hulliuger , a deputy fire
marshal.
So strong is the web of evidence in
which both Houlenbeck and Hullinger
believe they have tuwined Carr that
Hollenbeck was given instructions to
proceed to Dayton and file affidavits
against Carr for murder and arson.
This arrest , while having no direct
connection with the Dona Gilman
crime , it is firmly believed by the au-
thorities , who have been ceaselessly
working on the murders of young girls
in Dayton , that Carr may be able to
explain how Dona Gilman was killed.
Mrs. Carrie Middlestetter was being
examined by officers of the Fire Mar
shal's office relative to the destruction
of a house belonging to a relative of
hers , and during her testimony she said
that Carr had confessed to her that he
had killed Elizabeth Fulhart. Mary :
Forschner's body was discovered by
her stepfather on Jan. 23 in North Day
ton. One arrest followed another , but
nothing came of them. On Feb. 5 , or
about two weeks later , the body of
Elizabeth Fulhart was found in a cis
tern in the rear of a house on West
Jefferson street , Dayton.
Again many arrests took : place , but
no prosecutions were instituted be-
cause of the inability of the police to
get the proper evidence.
Recently a fire destroyed a house be-
longing to Joseph Voges , a relative of
Mrs. : Middlestetter , near Dayton , and
the inquiry held adduced the following
testimony : That Carr had brought the
Fulhart girl to a room in Mrs. : Middle-
stetter's house. The following Sunday
the same program was carried out , but
that was the last seen of her. The
dress which she wore that day , as de
scribed by the Middlestetter woman ,
,
and the dress which she wore when
her body was recovered are identical.
The next Monday , Mrs. Middlestetter
says , Carr confidentially asked her if
she had seen anything in the newspa-
pers regarding the disappearance of
any young girl. She replied that she
had not. "Well , you will , " he is said
to have replied , according to her testi-
mon ) ' . On the following Friday the
discovery was made , and although she
was taken before the court during the
Coroner's inquest , Mrs. Middlestetter
states that she did not dare to tell
what she knew of the case through
fear of Carr. Carr was arrested and
held as a suspect , but later released
because of lack of evidence. Carr is
said to have known Dona Gilman , who
was also slain.
P. F. COLLIER DROPS DEAD.
Publisher "Was Attending- Horse
Show at Riding- Club.
Peter Fenelon Collier , founder of Col-
lier's Weekly , famous as a polo player
and follower of the hounds dropped defal
in the riding club at 7 East 58th ; : ; street.
New York , shortly before 1 o'clock Sat-
urday : morning. Mr. Collier had been at-
tending the twentieth annual horse show
under the auspices of this club and had
several horses entered. Scores of society
people were in attendance and after the
exhibition the guests went to the third
floor , where a banquet was served. DurI I
ing the evening Mr. Collier seemed to 1
be in the best of health find chatted mer- ]
rily with his friends. As every one was
leaving the table and making their way I
to the elevators Mr. Collier suddenly put
his hand to his heart and with a groan
fell forward on the floor. "
Arrested ; Dies of Shame.
Within a few minutes after his arrest
in New York on the charge of having ex i
pectorated into the face of a passing
stranger , Ramon Domingu , tobacco im-
porter , dropped dead. Fear and shame r
are supposed to have caused his death.

Rechad is Go years old , and next to the
deposed sultan , is the oldest male de-
scendant or the house of Othman , the
founder of the dynasty. He is the twen-
ty-ninth sultan to take the throne since
the conquest of ' Constantinople in 1451.
Abdul's nephew , Yussef Izzedin , was
preferred by many as his successor , but
his selection would have violated the
Turkish law that the succession shall go
to the oldest male descendant of Othman.
Otherwise , Yussef would have been cho-
sen , as Rechad is considered a man of
weak qualities.
Rechad has had no experience in gov-
ernmental affairs. For twenty-five years
he has been almost a prisoner in the Yil
diz Kiosk. It is conceded that he will
.
do whatever the Youiig Turks demand , as ;
he is lacking in the craftiness and initia-
tive of Abdul.

KEEP UP MASSACREj
PEOPLE ALL DESPAIR
Atrocities in Asiatic Turkey Con
t5nue and Starvation Claims
, Many.
SURVIVORS ARE IN BEEP MISERY
War Ships of Powers Land Marines
but Little Progress Is Made
\
Toward Order.
The situation in Asiatic Turkey Is
one of extreme gravity. How many :
thousands have been massacred cannot
even be estimated , because the disturb-
ances have been so widespread that it
is impossible to secure details of the
happenings of the last ten days. The
I.-itest J estimates of the number killed
in the vilayet } of Adana reaches approv-
imately : 25,000. and thousands have
been done to death in the towns of oth-
er districts. The state- of siege which
several of the places are undergoing
has brought the inhabitants to the
verge of starvation and each day
brings its tales of further atrocities and
the depths of - misery and despair to
which the savagery of the fanatics has
brought the people. Several warships
are now in the waters of the disturbed
territory , but the disorders are so far-
reaching that the efforts of the powers
to restore normal conditions have as
yet hardly been felt. A British war-
ship has been ordered from Alexaii-
dretta to Suediah , where conditions
have become worse. All the property
of the Christians at Djebel Bereket has
been destroyed. The total loss is un
known , but it will be enormous.
At the town of Adana more than 100
girls are missing. It is known that
twenty-one native pastors have been
killed. Fears are entertained that oth
er Am ° ricau missionaries than thoso
whose deaths have been reported hare
been murdered. There are 15,000 ref
ugees in Adana and Tarsus and 5,000
at l < > rsina. A messenger , dispatched
for relief by Miss Lambert the Ameri
can missionary , who two days previous
sent an appeal to Constantinople , was
killed in the streets. A second mes
senger , a soldier , was shot at. The
vali has given assurances of the safety
of Americans.
According to the latest information
from the country around Alexandret-
ta , the Armenian village of Kessab has
been burned and many persons havn
been killed l there. The women and chil
dren of Kessab are fugitives in the
surouuding mountains , exposed to hun-
ger and violence. No news has been
received from Iladjin , where five Amer-
ican women missionaries were reported
to be in danger of violence at tho
hands of infuriated tribesmen.
POWERS' EYES WATCH TURKEY.
All European Nations Interested in
Fate of Ottoman State.
Turkey for many years has been the
bete noir of European governments be-
cause her name symbolizes that endur-
ing bugbear of old world chancellories
--the eastern question. What nations
are to divide the territory of Turkey
in Europe should the Ottoman Empire
crumble ? Is Russia to occupy Con-
stautipole ? Is the Anglo-Saxon or the
Slav to be champion of occidentalism
in the twentieth century ? These are
three of the chief questions which , tak-
en together , constitute the famous near
eastern question of which so much has
'
been written.
England and Russia are the powers
which chiefly stand face to face on the
question. British diplomacy on the
near eastern question has been mainly
aimed at checking the attempts of Rus-
sia to extend her empire and strength-
en her strategic position by absorption
of part of the Turkish territory. When
ever any phase of the eastern question
is opened the whole world becomes con-
cerned. Russia is interested because
the question affects her route to the
sea and her relations with England , the
United States and the other great pow-
ers. Austria is concerned because the
question affects her prospects in the
Balkan states. France is concerned be-
cause it affects her commercial ambi-
tions in the far East , her claims in
Africa and her route to the orient.
BIBLES HIDE SMUGGLING.
Customs Ofllcials Seize Costly Good
' on 3IixHion. Boat.
Three customs inspectors confiscated a :
truckload of costly Asiatic goods from a
missionary boat at New York. Among
Bibles and hymn books were found
enough rare china , lacquer and bronzes to
praperly equip a commodious Fifth ave-
nue hotel. Inspector Sawyer ou patrol
along tthe South Brooklyn shore Wednes
day night heard music. It was the chant-
ing of a hymn brought to land by a
chance turn of the wind. He went down
to the end of a pier and found the church
ship Sentinel. Sawyer became suspicious
when he saw a number of boxes and bar-
rels being loaded aboard the Sentinel and
boarded her. He found that the pack-
ages labeled "prayer books" held Orien-
tal goods forth a fortune.

A lady in Huntsville , Ala. , says she
used coffee for about 40 years , and for
the past 20 years was troubled with
stomach trouble.
" 1 have been treated by many physi-
cians but all in vain. Everything failed
to perfect a cure. I was prostrated for
some ; time , and came near dying. When
I recovered sufficiently to partake of
food and drink I tried coffee again and
it soured on my stomach.
"I finally concluded coffee was the
cause of my troubles and stopped using
it. I tried tea and then milk in its
place , but neither agreed with me , then
I commenced using Postum. I had it
properly made and it was very pleasing
to the taste.
"I have now used it four months , and
my health is so greatly improved that
I can eat almost anything I want and
can sleep well whereas , before , I suf-
fered for ) 'earsith insomnia.
"I have found the cause of my trou-
bles and a way to get rid of them. You .
can depend upon it I appreciate Post-
