Young Turks Seize Power in Constantinople

Our latest news from Constantinople is that the Young Turks have slain Nazim Pasha, commander-in-chief of the Turkish army, forced the resignation of Kiamil Pasha, the grand vizier, seized the sultan, and appointed Mahmoud Sherket Pasha in his stead. They are determined to hold Adrianople at any cost. The next step will probably be the armed intervention of the powers.
