CoxsTANTiNOPLE, Nov. 28, via Sofia.
?uljraria, Nov. 29. (Copyright, 1895 by
ssociated Fress.) The political sit-
lation is critical, and a crisis may be
xpected within the ensuing 24 hours
Pbe sultan who is once more thor
mghly utider the influence of the pal-
xce party, led by Izzel Bey, still de
lines to grant the firmans applied for
by representatives of Great Britain.
Russia, Italy and Austria, for the pas-
ige of the extra guard ships through
she Straits of Dardanells.
This Is extraordinary, as on Tuesday
fewfik Pasha, the Turkish minister of
f ireign affairs, personally assured Sir
Philip Currle that the porte had de
ermined to grant the permission re
luired. It wovdd thus seem that while
,he Turkish ministers are appareptly
n favor of granting the firmans, the
alace party, priests, chamberlains
ind others, who are the real advisers
f Abdul Hamid, are opposed to it as
calculated to lower the dignity of the
Iran. Meantime the Mussulmans
ire growing uneasy, looking upon the
hrdatening advent of the extra guard
4iips as nothing less than warlike dem
mstrations before Constantinople.
Sir Philip Currie, when assured by
.fwefik Pasha that the firmans would
ie forthcoming immediately tele
rrnphed to the admiral in command of
he British Mediterranean squadron
nstructing him to dispatch a gunboat
o the Dardanelles to be used in the
'Bosphorus as an extra guard. The
;in-screw torpedo gunboat Draid,
arrying four seven-inch and four six
tounder quick-firing guns, 's expected
ti arrive at Chanakkal today and pass
riht on to the Bpsphorus. The sul
tan is known to be in a state of the
rreatest agitation at the news that an
xtra British gunboat is heading for
;he Dardanelles.
shows signs of yielding to the demand
fjr additional dispatch boats.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says an accute finan
cial crisis ha9 arisen in Turkey, owing
to the paralysis of trade industry and
husbandry, and to the outlawry caused
by the mobilization of troops. He
adds the sources of income are so com
pletely exausted that an issue of paper
currency is discussed.

COLON, Nov. 29. Festivities in cele

are on a more lavish scale than ever

TO CONVENE AT NOON.
First Session of the Fifty-Fourth Congress
to Open Today.
Washington, Dec. 1. The first
week of the 54th congress, which con
venes at noon tomorrow, promises
nothing at either end of the capital in
tne way of actual legislation. The
time before the Christmas holidays is
usually devoted to preliminary mat
ters, and the work of the session does
not begin until after the recess. The
new congress will probably not be an
exception to this rule. The senate
proceedings may be enlivened by an
attempt at reorganization, but in the
house nothing can be done . until the
committees--are . appointedSpeaker-
elect Reed says the committees w ill be
announced this week, with perhaps a
.'single exception the committee ; on
rules. This committee formulates the
rules which are to govern the house
during its session, and it is customary
for the speakers to name it during the
first week in order that it can immed
iately begin its labor.

The close of the Chinese war has de

life and property.
The cordial relations with France
have been undisturbed, with the excep

United States consul at T.amative, Mad

term of office expired, having procured
business concessions of value, and upon
the declaration of martial law by the
French, he was arrested npon various
charges, tried aud convicted by a mill
tory of the United States, quoting the
fact that in July, 1890, congress pro
vided for the purchase of silver bullion
but decided that gold and silver must
be kept at a- parity.. The redemption
of treasury notes, treated as gold obli

This resulted in the depletion of the

FREE COINAGE OF SILVER.
Speaking of the proposition to re

coinage of silver at the ratio of 18 to 1,
the president declares that no govern

legislation has ever been able to hold
the two metals together in free coinage
at a ratio of appreciative difference
from that which is established by the
markets of the werld. A change in
standards to silver monometalism
would bring a collapse to our entire
credit system.
