Prompt recognition will be given to the new government of Turkey by the admin istration when official news of the new order of things reache Washington. The officials depended entirely on the Associated Press dispatches today, as Ambassador Lelshman la evidently waiting the formal announcement of the selec.on of the new Sultan by the Turkish Foreign Office. Speculation is rife as to what will happen under the reorganized govern ment. It being recognized that in the present condition nobody can safely predict the outcome. The universal opinion Is that. If the Young Turks party is equal to the trust imposed, a new era with bright prospects is in store for Turkey. The opinion is expressed that with the new Sultan on the throne and with the Young Turks" party in full power, there will be a rehabilitation of the relations with the countries of the world, and opportunity offered for a more satisfactory treatment of the mis sionary question, which has been a troublesome one. due to the fanati cism of the followers of Islam, and on many occasions led to diplomatic rep resentations to Turkey. In many little things, which In the aggregate are considerable, the ad ministration of the Young Turks has been satisfactory to the state Depart me Annoyances affecting travelers n Turkey, irritating questions touch ing the Armenians and those of natur alisation have disappeared and In other ways a more liberal application of the local and general laws has prevailed.

EY FOR TUFT TOUR TAWX'EY PROMISES TAFT THAT HE WILL GET FUNDS. California Congressman Thinks No Difficulty Will Be Met in Pro- curing Appropriation. WASHINGTON. April 27.-Representa-11,8 Tawney, chairman of the House committee on appropriations, talked with President Taft today on the latter's pro posed trip to the West this Summer, and at the conclusion of the interview said he would produce a bill before the House appropriating 5,000 for the President's traveling expenses during the coming fiscal year. Mr. Tawney said a false impression had gone abroad that he was opposed to such a measure. He said he did not know until today definitely that President Taft desired to go West In the Summer, and to take a run up to Alaska one portion of the United States territory upon which Mr. Taft has not yet set foot. No Presi dent of the United States has ever vis ited Alaska In fact, and Mr. Taft is anx ious to learn at first hand Just what con ditions are in that far northern territory Mr. Tawney said today he had no doubt that the measure he prepared would pass the House without objection. If unanimous consent could not be secured however, the bill might be called up under a special rule. Already in the Sen ate several propositions to set aside J" 5 -000 for the President's traveling ex penses are pending, and no trouble Is ex pected in getting the appropriation through that body.
