A SECRET ALLIANCE.
Exists Between German Em
peror and the Saltan.
New York, .December 28.-
A special to the World from
Washington says:
The statement that a- secret
alliance exists between Ger
many and the sultan of Turkey
is made in a letter from Con
stantinople, received by a pro
mi nen official of the state de
partrapnt. . The letter was writ
ten by one high in authority in
the Turkish government, and
explains that the alliance is for
the purpose of tuwamg iius
sian and English encroachment
in the sultan's dominions.
The writer gives an insight
into preient affairs m 1 urkey.
After the great powers had sent
through their ambassadors of
Constantinople a collective note
to the sultan, insisting on his
giving reforms and an abi olute
guarantee in the future for the
lives and property of al! bis
subjects, the Eastern question
again became the great center
of European diplomise. The
sublime porte entered into the
reforms with a feverish energy
which surprised all .Europe.
Garrisons were established on
the outskirts of the empire, and
the whole country was placed
practically under a millitary
rule. The sublime ;orte re-,
moved governors and lesser
officials with a dispatch aston
isbing to these conversant with
the tisual bewildering delays in
Eastern diplomacy. An am
nesty was promised . toward
Armenian prisoners and over
1300 of them have already been
set at liberty. - .
England, France and Russia
were not, however, absolutely!

Phillip urrie, the English
ambatiader, intimated to the
minister to foreign affairs that
England, though pleased with
what had already been accom
plished, was fearful that the.
sultan would not be strong
enough to insure the permanent
enforcement of these measures.
It was therefore desirable, he
said, that those 'powers which
hod the most vital interest in
Turkey namely England,France
and Russia, should have writ-
ten negotiations on the subject.
To agree to"tnis proposal would
mean that Turkey tacitly con
sented to a protectorate compos-
9(3 0f these three
powers. In
case she failed to fulfill her
contract she would be virtually
fat tho mercy, or the triumvirate.,
The sublime porte was much
disturbed by Sir Phillip'sjit,
and for a time it seemed r that
English diplomacy would win.
Suddenly the sultan assumed a"
defensive attitude. Sir Phillip
was informed the sublime porte
would uontrnae the reforms on
the lines laid .down; that it
guaranteed absolute -protection
of life and property to all its
subjects, anjl further assurance
was deemed unnecessary. It is
now generally known in Con
stantinople, the letter say, that
Abdul Hamid acted on instruc
tions received from the German
government, and no little
chagrin is felt among the sup
porters of the English, Russian
and French plan?.
Ufiplomats, according to the
writer, are now recalling that a
year and a half ago, Emperor
William of Germany visited
the sulTan at Constantinople,
and was Teceived with extra
vagant honors. It was hinted
then perhaps a secret treaty

confident of the sultan's per
sererance in this work. Sir
had been formed between the
twomonarchs to prevent Rus
sian and English encroach
ments. The sultan, according to the
letter, while not yet completely
reassured that he will be left
peaceful in control of .his do
main, with the privilege of
nutcuenng toe wtiole empire,!
if he so desires, is shrewd:
enough to discern that the
powers. -of Europe- hate each
other much more than they
hate him. The conclusion of
the letter is, No matter what
happens, the Great Christian
nations can not afford to become
embroiled with each other..
Russia, least of all, hemmed in
as she is, on all sides, by en
emies, can not afford the luxury
of war, much as she desires it."

HOW IT TAW
To the Editor of The 2'osi,
When Kentucky was like
Texas a good old democratic
State lynchings were of rare
occurrence. In fact not more
than one or two a year occur,
red, ?and then the crime for
which' the wretch paid the pen
alty merited death, perhaps
not at the hands of a mob, but
at all events death.
The Associated Press dis
patches of the 26th state that
Alfred Holt a- negro, was
lynched at Owensboro, Ky
and the concluding- paragraph
says:
"Including Holt eleven men
in the last week met death at
the hands of mobs in Kentuc
icy."
For the first time in the, his
toryof thejftate Kentucky's
electoral vote goes to the rep
ublicans, and during a single
week more negroes
were
lynched than during a whole
decade of democratic rule.
It would be well for our col
ored fellow citizens to give this
a passing thought
Ju.st think of it! Eleven men
lynched in a week, and in a
State which has just been
wrested from the democrats by
questionable election methods.
Certainly the democracy has
no reason to be ashamed of
j-Kentucky, but the republicans
have. Will they explain?
