( via Sofia , Bulgaria , Nov. 2S ) In spiteof the assur ances which the Turkish minister for foreign affairs , Tcwflk Pasha , gave the ambassadors ot Great lltltaln , ltusja | , Austria and Italy yesterday , that the firmans allowing the pis- sago through the Dardanelles of four extra guardshlps for the use of their embassies , would bo Immsdlately Issued by the Porte , the necessary documents have not been forth coming. Consequently a serious condition of affairs , which was looked upon as having bs n definitely cleared up , Is now again per plexing the ambassadors and threatening to cause the adoption of strong measures upon the part of the powers Frequent confer ences between th" ambassadors have taken place during the past twenty-four hours and there have been many consultations between the Turkish ministers and the sultan at the palace regarding ttio same matter. The am bassadors have als been Iu communication with the palace as well as with their re spective governments. The answer of the powers to the request of the Porte that they refrain from pressing their demand for the extra guardshlps v\aa that they could see no reason why they should not support the demands of their am bassadors for more effective means of pro tecting the foreign residents of Constanti nople In an emergency , and In the presence of this unanimous reply It la considered In foreign official circles that the sultan has no alternative but to yield , csp ° elally In view of any changes In the bottom of the. . sea. Tins apparently Innocent work was afterward to be continued , still tvy the permission of the , Porte , In' the Turkish portion of the Aegean sea , and On their way through the Daidanelles the "Russian scientists" were caught sound ing those waters The Turkish olllceis pro tested , the work was stopped and the Russians returned home disappointed. The British admiralty Is said to have obtained complete soundings from the English merchant steamers , which have repeatedly passed the Diidanelles , and It Is suspected In some quaiters that the British naval re serve officers may have been engaged on board these vessels In obtaining all the In formation necessary for the admiralty de partment as to the system of mines and torpedoes about the Dardanelles ; they do not uiuse much apprehension among the foielgn officers here They b'lleve that a few torpedo catchers could cut the shore-connecting wires In short ordci and that a little counter mining1 would do the rest. RUSSIAN TROOPS ALL READY. Most startling reports are still current here regarding the preparations for the trouble being made by Russia In her Black sea ports and along the frontier of Asiatic Turkey. The different divisions of the BJack Bea fleet , regular and volunteer , are paid to have been brought up to the highest point of efficiency and to be ready for immediate operations. The Dlick sea dock yards and coaling depots have undoubtedly -been very busy , according to the reports of ship captains who have passed Constantinople and the greatest ac tivity was noticed by them In military cir cles. Tlir > Russian officials here claim there IB nothing alarming In all this , that It occurs every year at this tlmo and that It means nothing more than the work of shipping troops and preparing these troops for their winter quarters But the iteamer people who come from the Black sea assert that In all their experience they have never 3cn so much activity displayed at this or any oth"r tlmo of the year In naval or military circles. TURKEV NOT INACTIVE. The Porte today made another report to the ambassadors , announcing that the work of restoring order In the disturbed districts was progressing satisfactorily , and that the re forms Insisted upon by the powers were being effected as promptly as possible under the circumstances. Less than one-half of the reserves called out have joined the colors and It Is not be lieved that any Armenian can bs placed under arms. The arming and equipping- these forces has progressed to a certain stage and there seems to have stopped , as If the author ities were really , as currently reported , wait ing for winter to do the rest. The anxiety caused by the absence of direct nowa from Syria Increases. It Is reported , however , that largo numbers of 'lurhlsh trooiu hava been drafted theie and a religious war seems Imminent.

A portion of the British fleet , which has been at anchor In Salonlca bay for some time , Is mulct stood to have left thosj waters for Smyrna and should now be quite near the entrance to the Dardanelles That the Porte anticipated trouble Is evident from the fact that all the foils above the straits are now fully manned and supplied with ammunition and have been placed in the highest state of elllclency compatible with the circumstances Searchlights are kept In good order and are worked nightly over the waters For over a month past the work of strengthening the fortifications In this vicin ity , and particularly about the Dardanelles , lias been In progress and It Is understood that the system of submarine mines and torpedoes liai been practically completed , so far as the resources of the government will allow It.
