"I should like to auk your excellency a question. 1 should like to know why that Amerlcin college can't he built * " Thin question Admiral Farrngut , when In Constantinople on his tour mound the world shortly nfter the war. asked of every Turk- lih olllcitil he met , and he met all who hold Important portions In the government. The question when flr t ai'lted created no particular ntlcntlon , f.iyp the Chicago Record , but when It was noticed that ho porsl tcd In asking It and that when an attempt wis made to answer It In an evasive way he said nothing , the Turks suspected that he must be In Constantinople for some other purpose than to simply pay hi ? respects lo the sul tan and n o the sights of the beautiful city. What oth ° r object could ho have ? It must bo connected with that question ho asked every olllclal ho met , whether at n compli mentary dinner or In private Evidently he had been sent by the United Stiles government to learn why the American college was not permitted to erect the buildings on the land It had bought and paid for , and If a satisfactory answer were not given to declare war upon Turkey The admiral's silence tt > the answers lo his question uhowcd plainly that he was not satis fied. The Tin ks became alarmed They wore then occupied with the Insurrection In Crete , and they could not afford to quarrel with file United States nt thit tim" , if they could at any time. There wns only ono thing to be done. They must permit the college build ings to bo erected They would do even moro than that. The sultan would give an liade. the most hncred title to reil estate given In Turkey , and emanating from the sultan per- Bomlly in his character of Infallibility. Still mnre the college , In the trade , was placed under the protection of the United States. and consequently has the right to carry and does carry the American flig To attack It Is to attack the American flag. Robert College or , as It Is frequently called , the Amcilcau callegc la situated on the bluffs ovei looking the Bosphorus and Is the only foreign Institution permitted upon any prominent point along the straits. For a iiumbT of years every possible Influence has be ° n lined to prevent the erection of the college building- " Before the college was projectea In 1S59 Cyrus Hnmlln , Its first pr'pldent , had In his mind elected the ground on which It. now stands as a site for a college When the college was decided upon Mr. Hamlln , tlirough the American secretary of legation , offered the ovvnci , Ahmed Vefjk Pasha , then Ottoman ambissadar at Paris , $15,000 for the tiact. Ahmed Vcfyk replied : "Tell Mr. Hamlln If he has land to fxjll I will listen to him ; If he Is only ! a purcluwr I have nothing to say and no teims to offer. " Mr. Hamlln. through tlte American secretary and purchased land elsewhere , but when he began to make preparations to build he vsas forbidden to do so. Soon after , to his great surprls * . Ahmed Vcfyk proposed to sell him the tract on the Horphorus at the price ho had offeied. Mr. Hamlln bought It nnd harncd that the death of Sultan Abdul Mcdjld had so t'crlounly cmbariassed Ahmed Vefyk finan cially that ho found hlms'lf In debt about $ .10,000 for the elegant dinners ho had given In Paris , for which the new government iefu o1 to pay , and he was obliged to tuc- tldce some of his property. Mr Ilumlln had bai'ly begun preparations for building when an ollicer presented him self nnd sild"Some formalities are still not completed and you mutt wait until they are " "How long ?

" Mr Hamlln adroitly answered to the effect that ho supposed any government would tike up such a nutter if it meant to defend the rights of Its cltl/.ens The admlral'n question had produced a great effect , but at the tlrae was not dec'slve , although he was awdred lint the dlfilcultloi weru removed and the collcg' would KOOH ho built But o soon as th admiral left Coil Rtantlnople the government decided to post pone action , aril when he pasped Gibraltar they derided lo do nothing lit all A few months Utor , aftei the udmlial had returned lo the United States , letteia fiom New York papers wtie sent to Turltoy translated and In tlio original.
