RESUMING ITS
NORMALASPECT
Constantinople in Control
of (^ostitatiwulists.
TURKISH CABINET RESIGNS
•etofktt Pasha, Commander of the
Victorioi-6 Army, Is the Man of the
Hour and Is Being Urged to Be
come Grand Vizier in Succession to
Tewfik Pasha Strong Feeling
Against Sultan.
Constantinople, April cio
is quiet and is gradually resuming it*
normal aspect. The declaration ol
martial law and the fact that the con
stitutionalists are in full control
promise for the maintenance of or
der.
The question of what Is to be done
to the sultan in all probability will be
determined by parliament. Schefket
Pasha, commander of the constitu
tlonal army, is the man of the hour.
The lefuling civilian members of the
committee of union and progress de
sire him to be grand vizier in sue
cession to Tewfik Pasha and he has
been assured that a majority of par
liament would gladly support a minis
try under his leadership in succession
to the Tewflk ministry, which has re
signed.
On the reply to these proposals
Schefket Pasha said that the premier
ship afforded such a splendid oppor
tunity to assist in the political de
velopment of the country that he
would have rejoiced to accept the
honor had it come to him under any
other circumstances, but that he could
not accept it while still leader of the
army. To do so would not accord
with his ideas of civil and political
liberty of action.
Bchefket Pasha Is an Arab ana
eomes from Bagdad. He has lived
for eleven years in Europe and re
ceived his military training In Ger
many.
The feeling among the members of
parliament against the sultan remain
ing on the throne is strong. Mo
hammed Resohad Effendi, the sultan's
brother, is the favorite candidate for
the succession.
The parliamentary leaders have de
cked to act as though there had been
BO Interruption to the parliamentary
syBtem. They will support the cab
inet precisely as before the morning
of April 18, the day of the mutinous
outbreak on the part of the local gar
rison.

lluence of the committee. The state
ment set forth that the tragic event'

were injured by the proclamation of

MINNEAPOLIS WINS CASE
Cities Can Compel Railways to Bridge
Crossings.
Washington, April 27.—That a city
can compel a railroad company to
bridge its street crossings when the
street has been established subse
quent to the laying of railroad tracks,
just as it. can when the tracks follow
the laying out of the street, was in
effect held by the supreme court of
the United States in deciding favor
ably to the city the case of the St.
Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Rail
road company and the Great Northern
Railway company vs. the city of Min
neapolis. The roads resisted an or
der from the Minneapolis city council
requiring them to erect a bridge over
University avenue in that city on the
ground that the street was laid out
after the company had acquired its
right of way and laid its tracks, which
they contended imposed upon the city
the responsibility of making the cross
ing safe. The case was heard in the
district court of Hennepin county,
Minn., where the decision was favor
able tn the railroads, but that deci
sion was overruled by the state su
preme court. The decision sustained
the Minnesota supreme court. It was
announced by Chief Justice Puller.
