ENGLAND, RUSSIA AND FRANCE DECIDE T0 at DUCF. THE SULTAN 'ro vassmp AGEâ€"HE WILL PROBABLY KNOW HIS FATE THIS WEEK. London, Dec. 10.â€"â€"The deadlock which has been the foulest reproach to modern civilization and to the human- ity of the age is broken at. last. So also is that coutemptiblc thing which the world has known during the past year as the concert of Europe. In the place of both, for they both mean the same thing, there has been created a new and living potentiality, which, while it will not undertake to avenge the innocent blood already shed, will speedily strip the guilty of all further power of outrage and massacre. The Turk is to be coerced. The Sultan is to be reduced in fact, if not actually in name, to vassalage. His fate will be made known to him probably before the end ofthe present week. Russia, France and Great Britain have decreed it. Should he resist, or fail to bow at once to the inevitable, then the combined fleets of those three powers will enforce their behest. Such, in brief, is the infinitely wel- come news which will bring relief and a sense of restored self-respect to the whole Christian world. It is not oflicially announced yet. It may even be discredited in certain quarters for a few hours as premature. Nevertheless I am prepared to affirm it without reservation. 1b was not until yesterday that the full consummation was reached. Russia, Franco and Great Britain ar- rived at a substantial agreement on a plan of action last week. There re- mained the necessity of getting the consent of the other three powers which were signatories of the Berlin conven- tion. Italy and Germany agreed with- out much demur. Austria hesitated long, and it was not until after yester- day’s emergency Cabinet council in London, which discussed and approved the whole plan, that the Austrian Am- bassador notified Lord Salisbury of the rather unwilling assent of his Govern- ment that the Russian, French and British fleets shall force the Dardan- elles, if necessary, in the execution of the new policy. It is impossible at this moment to furnish the exact details of the solution of the Turkish problem which has been agreed upon. It may, however, be partially defined in a ncgs tive way. It provides nothing so radi- cal as a division of the Turkish empire. Such a project has not been for a mo- ment considered. The integrity of Turkey will be substantially main tained. The terms of the new policy have practically been dictated by Russia. It came about finally that the English and other representations brought. home to the Cznr’s Govern- ment a realization of the fact. that. the policy of inaction for which it. is chiefly responsible, in the face of the accumu. latiug horrors of Turkish misrule, had become intolerable. Even French in- fluencc has been for some time strongly in favor of some form of intervention. Russia eventually yielded in principle, but. the discussion of ways and means has occupied nearly three months. There are two or three versions in diplomatic circles of the policy at last decided upon. This is one : That Russia shall occupy the north-eastern corner formel by the Bosphorus and the Black Sea, and extending to a point about half way down the Besphorus; that Constantinople and the Burden- elles shall be placed under protection, but shall remain under the rule of the Sultan, the forts at the Dardanellcs being dismantled and the passage bn. coming entirely free. No further change is suggested in regard to the integrity of the Turkish empire. This includes, also, European supervision of some of the Sultan's appointments. Bu: I believe this assumption of virtqu I have positive information, do not seem to indicate an intention to sum- mon any new conference of the pchrs for the revision of the Berlin Conven- tion. Russia, France and England have simply agreed to compel the Sultan to adopt radical reforms under joint super- vision of the powers, and they have asked and obtained the consent of the other three powers to the sending of the fleets of the new triumvirate through the straits if necessary to enforce their demands. Orders have already been given to the British, Russian and French squadrons in the Levant to assemble at the entrance to the Dardanclles, and to the Russian Black Sea fleet to prepare to enter the Bosphorus in the event of the Sultan’s failure to yield immediate obedience to the formal demands. The demands are in the hands of M. Ncli- doll, who left St. Petersburg to-day for Constantinople. He will ocusult with the French and British Ambassadors there on his arrival, and they will make. a joint representation to the Sultan with the least possible delay. “’hut the response will be is a matter of pure conjecture. If Abdul Hamid is in a sane mood it is to be expected that he will submit with the best grace possible. If not, then there may be a final great. tragedy at Constantinople, which could not fail to compel a more radical and permanent settlement of the Eastern: question than is contemplated by the present agreemeht. The risk is a very real one, and there is no doubt that it‘- has been taken into careful considera- tion under the terms of the new arrange- ment. The contingency has been pro- vided against, but how has not yet been made known. Lott Her Body to be Dissected. Washington, Dec. 12.-â€"-â€"Tho late Dr. Caroline Brown Winslow, the well- known woman physician. who died this week, left a will bequeathiog her body to Howard university, to be carefully dissected by a woman medical student for the purpose of advancing her knowâ€" ledge of anatomy. After that she de- sired that the several parts of her skelc~ too should be wired together for the use of the Minor Normal Schools of the district, founded by her friend, Myrtillu Minor, the skeleton to occupy the place in the school the loundcr designed that: her skeleton should occupy. Dr. Wins- low desired this disposal of her body because the laws of the country require- that every medical student shall obtain and dissect one human body before he or she can graduate or receive a diploma. and because there are no methods pro- vided by which such bodies can be le- gally obtained, except by bequest or sale by the owner previous to death. It the trustees of the University decline to accept the bequest, the body will be cremated. 0-0 A Horrible Tragedy. On Monday the town and surround- ing country were horrified to hear that an accident, almost without parallel in thir vicinity, had befallon Wm. George Bailey, the son of Wm. Bliley, a well- known person of this vicinity. The tidings were shocking, more so because the family were still mourning the death ofa son, who was poisoned in a myster- ious manner but a short time ago. It appears that the youth was working in his father’s cider mill, and that in try- ing to disengage a rope that had become entangled in the shutting, he was caught and turned round and round wit-i the revolving rod. lie was fright- fully crushed and mangled. Besith being bruised and battered in multi- tudinons places, one of his arms wu-i almost torn from its socket, the other Wat-l broken, some at his ribs wore severed from the backbone, and two of them punctured one of his lungs.
