There was, of course, Sir Louis re- marked, always a chance that inas- sacres of Ciiristiaiis would have place in the wilder sections of the Ottoman Empire, but, in his belief, the com- liind power of the American and Ger- man ambassadors would be sufhcient to prevent any concerted outbreak of fanaticism. United States Anibussndor Morgeii- ihau, Sir Louis said, now occupied a pecuiarily powerful position in Tur- key, “not only because oi’ abilities but also because he is a Jew." He added: “For the present. there is little danger to American missionaries and other Christians from Mohammedan fanatics. because the Turks are being held in leash by the German oilicers who dictate the movements of ilie Ot- toman army. Enver Bey is the strong- est man there today, but his power would be nulllfie dii’ the Germans lurried against him. Thus there is no more powerful individual in Turkey than the German ambasador, Baron von Wagenheiin, and it is quite cer- tain that he would do nothing to ag- gravate the United States. I “Mr. Morgeuthau has done well in protecting the interests not only of his eouiitryineii. but oi’ all foreigiiers. and l feel sure lie will be able to p_ut a stop to any uprising against Chris- .`\\\\\\\\\| ' __.- . .

Also they believe that they will be able to seize Egypt, which. the Germans told them, is their Alsace-Loraine, and a goodly slice of Russia. From what l heard on he subject in Constantinople, I do not believe the Germans readily share the Turkish delusion that they can invade Egypt, but they naturally foster plans for this invasion in the hope of com- pelling the British to keep ii large force in Egypt. “The same is true of the attitude toward Russia. They are the most .gullible people on eart.ii,iind the Turks are quite ready to believe that they can overrun Russia, and of corse their efforts to do so mean that two or three Russian army corps must be subtracted from the troops fighting against the Germans in Jtustria. _ “Although he has the army and navy behind him, Enver Bey is by no menus as popular as he appears to be, and it would not surprise nie to hear of his assassination at any time. “Commerce and trade of all kinds are at an absolute standstill through- out the Sultan’s doniinious, and ‘.hiiiking Turks realize that oven ii' they were victorious their country would he bai1kr\ipt_for years to come." TO SUCCEED THE EARL OF ABERDEEN DUBLIN, Dec. 12. via Lonilon,-The F'reemnn’s Journal reports that Bar- on Wimboriie probably' will succeed the Earl of Aberdeen, as Lord Lieute- nant oi' Ireland, early in the new year, when the oiiice will be raised to the rank of Viceroy. '1‘here has been reports for some time past that the Earl of Aberdeen was about to resign as Lord Lieuten- ant oi' ireland. Lord Wimbornc re- ferred to as his probable successor,ls the son of the Baron Wimborne, who died early this year. He brought the winning British polo team to Ameri- ca last summer.
