LONDON. —That the constitutional i movement in Turkey bldg fair to change the t.oiltlcal face of the mi nr j East and tc call into being recup-jrn tive iifKtnces which will have the broadcast international effects is a conclusion rapidly forcing itself jpon European statesmanship. Whether the credit for the coup of Abdul Hamid belongs to Berlin's sug gestion or to London's advocacy of ' mobile columns'' to hunt down tbe lawless Macedonian bands, the pr) dominant fact la that the "sick mao of Europe” has outplayed all the chancelleries in his adroit appeal 'o his people and In his prompt dismls sal of the leaders of the palace cJ'que chief of whom Is the Infamous Izzet Bey. It»1s not improbable that the young Turks. Intoxicated with the success which has attended their «gltation. w'll go beyond the limits which the moderates in Ottoman public life, such ar . has been, think should be observed. There are signs that they will re peat the extravagance of the revolu tionary extremists in the first Rus sian douma. and the upshot may be that the parliament summoned for No vember 1 will have a career similar The Sweet Answers of a Telephone Girl Have Won Her a Husband SAVANNAH.

But the salient feature of th e situa tion is the enormous increase of prob ability that the “Turkish question” will be solved by the Turks, and that rhe solution will put an end to the hopes certain powers have cherished of the collapse of the Ottoman em pire on the passing of Abdul Hamid. All calculations as to the future of Turkey must be revised. CHAFIN’S NOTIFICATION TO BE ON AUGUST 18TH CHICAGO. —It has been decided to hold a meeting of notification for E. W.
