Je viens d'apprendre par les journaux l'en- quête ouverte au palais de Yildiz au aujet de la légère opération chirurgicale que la prin- cesse, ma très regrettée épouse, avait subie, aprés consultation et décision de quelques som- mités médicales de la Capitale, un an et demi avant sa mort et à laquelle assistaient égale- ment sa mère sa soeur et son beau-père.
Je considère comme un devoir saoré d'aider de toss mes moyens à toute to démarche qui pour- rait constituer un hummage à la mémoire de la regrettée défunte, en facilitant la déconverte de la vérité en tout ce qui la concerne; Le soupçon, l'évidence même d'une intention personnelle- ment désobligeante pour moi, ne-saurait m'em- pêcher d'accomplir ce devoir sacré. Aussi est-ce avec empressement que je viens surgérer les moyens les plus propices à atteindre la but proposé.
La défunte princesse est inhumée an Egypte et son cercueil porte tonjours les soellés qui, conformément au règlement régissant le trans- fert des corps, ont été apposés par les antorités po'icières de la ville de Cannes, cu elle a rendu le dernier soupir. Tous ses parents, l'illusure famille á laquelle elle appartenait, sont domiciliés dans ce pays et j'y suis établi moi-même, principal intéressé. La haute re- nommés de justice et d'impartialité des tri- bunaux égyptiens demeurant au-dessus de toute contestation il serait donc tout-à-fait naturel de poursuivre ce procès en Egypte, ce qui assurerait l'exaltation entière de la vérité.
Pourtant, si par une considération queloon- que le recours aux tribunaux égyptiens était jugé inopportun on rourrait parfaitement déférer le cas à la justice française, la prince se étant morte en France. Au surplus, je suis prêt à me présenter à la justice de tout pays civilisé où l'indépendance des tribunaux se tronve assurée.
Mais la manière par laquelle l'enquête est inaugurée à Constantinople, la constitution d'une commission au palais de Yildiz, qui ne devrait en rien intervenir dans une affaire judiciaire, la pression exercée sur certains mé- decins (parmi lesquels d'auouns n'avaient d'ail- leurs jamais examiné la défunte princesse)pour leur faire apposer leurs signatures au-dassous d'un rapport préslablement préparé, les mena- ces proférées à cette occasion constituent au- tant de symptômes indiquant que l'enquête poursuivie à Constantinople marque, dans son origine même, de cette incérité dans la recher- che de la vérité qui constitue la condition essentielle de toute justice régulière.
Aussi, il devieut indispensable dans l'intérêt même du but pousuivi de trausférer le procès devant une justice inaccessible à aucune ingé- rence et dont la procédure normale ne saurait subir aucune déviation.
Cette proposition ne peut qu'être adoptée, s'il existe la moindre impartialité dans l'en- quête inaugurêe. Le triomphe de ceux qui la poursuiventrerait incontestables'ils parvenaient à obtenir une condemnation d'un tribunal jugeant en pleine possession de son indépen- dance. Le refus, au contraire, de porter l'affaire devant une justice impartiale, découvrirait de suite le but caché qui ne peut être autre chose que de porter une grave atteinte à ma dignité et à mon honneur. Ce sont là justement les seuls biens auquels je tiens dans l'exil volon- taire que je me suis imposé. En présence d'une pareille entreprise qui sous imposé d'une procès absurde, équivaut à déclarer une guerre ouverte contre mon honneur, toute considera- tion de convenance, tout souvenir d'anciennes bienveillances cessent d'avoir leur raison d'être. La responsabilité de cette nouvelle situation ne peut révenir qu'a ceux qui m'obligent de me départir de la neutralité que je me suis imposée vis-à-vis du vrai instigateur de ces intrignes. J'accepterai le combat et j'attendral avec confiance les hostilités pour défendre mon honneur et lui conserver dans le monde l'estime et la considération dont je suis fier da le voir entouré. Ce sera une nouvelle occasion pour manifester la puissance morale de l'honneur et affirmer son triomphe contre toute force qui voudrait l'écraser injustement.

Soon after the formation of the syndicate, properly qualified and equipped expeditions
were dispatched to explore the two conces- sions; but as at least fifty years must have
elapsed since the abandonment of work in the big shaft at ''Abou-Ra-Dham," some time

It has, nevertheless happened, and that within the past three months. The facts reveal tragedy and pathos transcending fiction, and would scarcely be believed if they were not vouched for by the best authority. For reasons that will be readily appreciated, it is undesirable to mention the name of the gentleman who through his brother's help has just succeeded in returning to freedom, if not happiness.
He is a Canadian, and was married in January 1890. A month later, while still on the
honeymoon, the young couple visited
The young woman cabled to her relatives in
His parents were wealthy, and engaged the services of a well-known American detective agency, urging that no expense should be spared to get at the facts of the disappearance. A competent man was sent to Honolulu, and after six weeks' patient investigation he dis- covered what had happened.
It seems that shortly after lunch on the day he disappeared he told his wife that he was going to the bank to draw some money, and that he would go to the club for an hour or so and return in time to take her for a drive before dinner. Immediately after leaving the bank, where he had drawn 500 dollars, he was arrested by four men, and, after being placed in a carriage, was driven to the house of 4 native official doctor. Here, after the most cursory examination, he was declared to have leprosy, and when the necessary papers had been signed he was drugged.
It is easier to imagine than describe what his feelings were when he awoke to con-
sciousness and found himself lying in the hold of a little vessel bound he knew not
whither. Although the island is less than forty miles from
When the report was made to the parents by the detective agency they did all in their power to obtain their son's release, but in vain. Years went by. The distracted wife died of a broken heart. Later his mother died, and some months afterwards his father likewise.
Fortunately for the lonely sufferer, he pos- sessed a brother a year younger than himself, who decided to spare neither himself nor his fortune in efforts at rescue.
It was not found difficult to charter a vessel, that would carry off the man if he
could reach it, but the difficulty was to enter into any com- munication with the people
on the island, so that co-operation could be had from that source. A man was finally
found who possessed a skin disease that in appearance might be mistaken for a form of
leprosy. This man was poor, out of work, and with a family to provide for. He agreed for
£2,000 to be paid to his wife to risk his liberty and life. He was taken to
His arrival there brought tho first ray of hope into the life of the man who for fifteen years and six months had borne and endured such as few men have had to do in the history of the world. The two men were not long in meeting, and the plot for escape was unfolded.
It was four nights later that a good-sized schooner yacht, which had been lurking off the is and out of sight all day, drew gradually closer, and by ten o'clook was within a hundred yards of a part of the shore least likely to be patrolled by the guards. No lights were shown, but occasionally small pieces of wood were thrown overboard coated with luminous paint. As the current was drifting shoreward, they were thrown on the beach in a short space of time. Suddenly to the watchers of those on board two pieces were raised in the air and held in that position. Immediately a boat with muffled oars made for the shore, and took on board, the two men who were in waiting, having eluded the guards in the darkness.
Two weeks later the yacht arrived at Van couver, and the brothers were reunited. Doc- tors who have examined the elder say there is not the slightest trace of leprosy about him. The mystery is who caused his abduction.

The Parisians go about spiriting for Christ- mas and New Year with a somewhat heavy-
hearted gaiety. As with all impressionable people, the fit, either of exhilaration or
de- pression, is severe while it lasts. For the moment the depression is uppermost. At
no period during the past few years has there been so much talk of military preparation
as at the present moment. The more serious journals preserve a reticence of language and
do not treat directly of the affair ; but columns are devoted to the question of
national defence. In the lesser prints the issue is plainly stated with details of an
alarming character. One of the evening newspapers, for instance, declares that a deputy
for Nancy drew the attention of
Fears for the situation abroad consort ill with natural preoccupations for the situation at home. Parliament is no longer sitting, and a portion of the country is in the throes of elec- tion preparations. One hundred Senators will be returned to the Upper House in the first week in January. From the political com- plexion of those Republican Lords may doubt- less be gauged the political temper of the country. Patriotism belongs to no party exclusively, but the fighting spirit or the pacific spirit will probably be sufficiently indi- cated by these hundred new Senators. One should be able to draw some significant con- clusions as to the voting of the National Assembly in the latter weeks of January. Rarely has a Presidential election been invest- ed with such interest for the outside world.
The younger generation and the Army itself are convinced that war cannot be avoided.
They argue that the Conference can only increase the irritation already existing between
the two nations.
In the absence of precise information at this moment, it is supposed that
Information of a most reliable character would lead one to suppose that the French army
has never, since the days of Napoleon, approached a greater state of efficiency than at
this moment. If there is a weakness on the purely military side, it is to be found in
the high commands; the young school of officers, however, is, technically, the equal of
the Teu- tonic etat-major. And yeti the conviction re- mains that, notwithstanding the
preparedness and notwithstanding the martial ardour of the moment, this nation would, in
its highest expression, feel itself unequally matched. It is for this reason that I
refuse to believe in the imminence of war. If supreme pressure comes, it it to be
foreseen that
As to the conference it is worth noting that many people here think that for many
reasons it would be preferable that there were no Con- ference at all; on the other
hand, exactly the same conditions and exactly the same danger would exist as before the
opening of the present period of diplomatic tension between France and
Out of evil, good. One remarkable feature of the crisis is the unity of national
sentiment. The sitting of the Chamber of Deputies on Saturday last afforded an example.
All parties sank their differences in face of the international position.
This morning I had a conversation with a leading official of one of the great railways
here. I was hardly prepared for his pessimism. His outlook was most gloomy. "I see," he
said, "most of the conditions prevailing to-day that were existing before the war. There
is an immense amount of spying being done. Let me take one example. Out of fifteen

The Army Council has ruled that men of the Royal Garrison Artillery serving on the three years' enlistment engagement or who have extended their service eight years whilst on service abroad, and on arriving home have still a few months to serve, may go at once into the Army Reserve. This is a decided concession to the gunner.
The Duke of Connaught, Inspector General, has found it necessary to call the attention of commanding officers to the order against banging the butt of the rifle on the ground when "ordering arms." The concussion produced by the butt striking heavily on the ground must affect injuriously the delicate breech mechan- ism of the magazine rifle. In the olden days with the Brown Bess, and in still more modern times, with the Martini Henry, the greater the "bang" the more smartly was the movement made and the battalion got credit accordingly. In fact it was impressed on the recruit that he must make his rifle "tell." That is all changed and no more "bang" is the word.
The minimum height of the recruits of the Royal Garrison Artillery has been fixed at 5ft. 6in., which is a return to the days when the Royal Regiment was composed of veritable sons of Anak.

The vitality of seeds found in Egyptian mummy cases has often been questioned and
recently the question was again revived owing to the results of experiments reported to
the Paris Academy of Sciences, in which the general conclusion reached was that the
length of the vitality was greatly increased if the seeds had no watery constituents.
Whether seeds are capable of existing in a state of suspended animation for many
hundreds of yean, as in the reputed instances of wheat ears drawn from mummy cases, is a
question that has never been decisively answered. An investi- gation of the subject was
made some years ago by

Le Cairo, 28 decembre.
Les valeurs égyptienues sout signalées en reprise à Londres; la National Bank a gagné hier 1/4 à 25 1/4 et l'Agricole 1/8 à 9 1/8. A Paris, le Crédit Foncier a également haussé de 5 francs à 778.
Ici, ce matin, notre marché a été relative- ment assez animé, avec de bonnes disposition L'Agricole, très demandée à 9 7/32, a c'ôturé à 9 1/4. La National Bank est négligée à 25 7/32. L'action Crédit Foncier a été traitée à 779.
L'action Agricole du Nil a gagné 4 francs à 246. L'action Bourse Khédiviale du Caire a ouvert à £ 140 pour clôturer à 142 acheteurs.
Dans le groupe des Hôtels, fortes transac- tions en Nungovich; on a ouvert à 11 1/8 pour monter à 11 1/2 et c'ôturer à 11 7/16 ven- deurs. Les Upper Egypt ont gagné 1/16 à 5 1/16.
Parmi les petites valeurs, les New Egyptien, très recherchées, ont monté à 29 sh. 9 pour clôturer à 29. 6. Egalement mouvementés, les Salt and Soda ont clôturé à 20. 3. après avoir atteint 20. 6. Par contre, les Markets ont fléchi à 24.9.
Le brait court depuis hier, fort discrètement d'ailleurs, que la Société des Nungovich Hotels surait vendu à un groupe de capitalistes an- glais le Grand Continental Hotel.
Cette rumeur est assurément inexacte, mais on rapporte qu'un syndicat anglais a offert à la Société £ 420,000 environ pour l'acquisition de cet hôtel, sut l'èmplacement duquel il se proposerait d'élever des galeries avec magasins et maisons de rapport.
Si cette proposition à été faite, elle sera pro- bablement soumise à l'assemblée-générale des actionnaires qui la refuserait sans aucun doute.
Le bruit avait couru à Londres, il y a quel- ques mois, que l'Egyptian Trust and Invest- ment avait l'intention de distribuer, vera la fin d'octobre, un dividende intérimaire de 5 %, Ce dividende devait être prélevé sur les bénéfices déjà réalisés par la Société.
Or, M. Glymenopoulos fait annoncer que la loi anglaise s'oppose à ce qu'aucun dividende soit distribué avant la fin de l'exercice de la Société, qui fiuit le 29 mars prochain.
Nous avons eu dernièrement l'occasion de rappeler que les statuts de l'Egyptian Improve- ments Corporation prévoient la clûture du premier exercice, commencé en mai 1905, pour le 81 décembre de l'année prochaine.
Or, il se confirme que le conseil d'administra- tion de cette Société a décidé de provoquer au plus vite la Convocation d'une Assemblée géné- rale extraordinaire après le règlement des comptes de fin courant, afin de proposer d'ar- rêter le premier exercice au 31 décembre 1905 et de fixer un dividende de 10 % sur le capital versé.
On proposerait aussi à cette assemblée l'aug- mentation du capital actions dès que le dernier quart serait appelé, ainsi que la création d'un capital obligations, pour lequel la Société est déjà en pourparlers.
Ces propositions sont motivées : 1. par le fait que les bénéfices réalisés à ce jour per- mettent aisément, en amortissant d'un seul coup le compte de premier établissement, d'ailleurs peu important, de distribuer le divi- dende de 10% précité, en reportant à nouveau une certaine somme ; 2 en ce qui concerne l'augmentation projetée du capital, par quel- ques grosses opérations qui se présentent dans les conditions les plus avantageuses pour la Société.
Les cours de coton arrivent en baissé sen- sible d'Amérique. Le spot a perdu hier 15 points, le Janvier 22 et le Mai 24. Le marché de Liverpool est également en mauvaise ten- dance.
Suivant des télégrammes que nous recevons de New-York, la baisse serait déterminée, d'une part, par la nouvelle que les planteurs se préposeraient d'étendre encore leur acréage ; d'autre part, par le fait que l'estimation du "come into sight" pour les mois de janvier et février serait supérieure à celle de l'aunée dernière.
Ici, le Mars a ouvert ce matin à 15 5/8 pour clôturer à 15 9/16.
MM. H. de Vries et Boutigny, agents de change, se chargent de l'execution de ous ordres de Bourse (valeurs et marchandises) sur les marchés de Londres, Paris, Bruxelles, An- vers, Liverpool et New-York. La Circulaire quotidienne de la maison est envoyée sur demande.
Plusiers personnes se plaignent du manque d'installation pour présserver du froid. C'est le motif, nous assuret-ou, pour lequel les specta- teurs viennent en si petit nombre même aux meilleurs représentations.
Hier on a donné "la Poupée" charmant opéra-comique aussi bien pour le livret que pour la musique.
Mlle Lambertini y a obtenu le succès qu'elle mérite. Elle a été admirable d'entrain dans le rôle d'Alesia. M. de la Freydière, en Maitre Hilarius, a été fort bien, quoiqu'il soit mieux dans s'autre pièces, par exemple, Le Jour et la Nuit, la Périchole. M. Ballin a été désopilant dans le rôle de la Chanterelle. Très bien égale- ment M. La. Beny en Lancelot et M. Crépy en frère Maximin.
Pour ce voir un donne "La Filledu Tambour Major," opéra-comique de Chivot et Duru, musique d'Offenbach. Mlle Berthe Chantenay jouera le rôle de Stella.
(Aujour d'hui à midi et demie)
Nous avons assisté ce matin à une reprise d'autant plus sensationnelle qu'elle était moins attendue à cette époque de l'annes. Les tran- sactions ont été considérables sur toute la ligne, mais particulièrement ou Banque Nationale, Agricole, Estates, Salt and Soda et Nungovich.
La National Bank hausse de 25 1/4 à 25 3/8 l'Ancienne et de 24 1/2 à 24 5/8 la Nouvelle.
Un bond subit est fait par l'Obligation Foncier de 3l7 1/2 à 325 1/2.
Même remarque pour la Banque Agricole. L'Ancienne s'avance de 9 7/32 à 9 5/16 et la Nouvelle de 8 25/32 à 8 7/8.
Pour compléter cet élan des valeurs de Ban- ques, là Cassa di Scento remonte subitement de 209 1/2 à 213 1/2 et de 205 1/2 à 210 1/4.
Après une baisse momentanée hier à 16 1/8, la Daira Sanieh remonte aujourd'hui à 17 1/16 acheteurs.
Les Estates, stationnaires depuis quelque temps à 1 15/32, viennent de se réveiller à 1 17/32 acheteurs également.
Parmi nos valeurs commerciales et indus- trielles plusieurs regagnent aussi du terrain: la Crown Brewery repreud de 205 à 206, les Markets de 25/6 à 26 et la Salt &Soda de 20/3 à 21/3.
La Nungovich continue son mouvement ascensionnel et atteint 11 1/2 acheteurs.
Par contre, l'Alexandria Water recule de 14 3/8 à 14 1/8 et la Banque d'A'thènes de 131 à 130.
La tendance générale de notre marché est excellente. Beaucoup croient que nous sommes au début de la grande hausse qui se produit au commencement de chaque année. Dabs ce cas nous serious en avance de 3 semaines sur le années précédentes.

"The Egyptian Gazette" Series is the most artistic collection to be found in Egypt.
The Egyptian Gazette has much pleasure in presenting to its subscribers the accompany- ing description of some of the many interesting routes by which they may travel homewards. Great care had been taken to arrange them as accurately and concisely as possible, and it will be found that none of them are fraught with difficulty. In Choosing the route home there are several things to be considered. To there are several things to be considered. To begin with there is the difference in climate between Egypt and the various points at which you may arrive in Europe.
This depends partly upon the month in which you leave
Some will want to take into consideration the number of days to be spent at sea, and we therefore subjoin a list showing the time oc- cupied on each of the various routes between Egypt and the Continent of Europe.
They are as follows :-
The long sea routes-from Port Said or Alexandria to Plymouth, Southampton, London or Liverpool-occupy about 14 days. The short ones are as follows:-
Port Said or ALexandria to Brindisi 3 days Alexandria to Messina... ... ... 3 " Port Said or Alexandria to Marseilles 5 " Alexandria to Venice and Trieste 4 " Alexandria to Naples... ... 3 " Port Said to Genoa ... ... ... 5 " Port Said to Naples... ... ... 4 " Alexandria to Constantinople ... 4 " Alexandria to Piraeus ... ... ... 2 " Port Said to Gibraltar... ... ... 7 "
The steamers, of the P. &0. North German Lloyd, Orient and Messageries Mari times are the largest. The Anchor, British India, and Bibby Lines are also excellent, and their steamers are largely patronised by travellers to Egypt.
As regards the train journeys from Cairo, the shortest is that to Alexandria, without change (3 hours). That to Port Said, can now be made without change in 4 1/2 hours.
The least expensive way to England is by the Moss, Papayanni, Prince, and Westcott lines of steamers from Alexandria to Liverpool. The German Levant line has also good steamers from Alexandria to Hamburg.
The most expensive but quickest through Continental routes are by P. &O. Brindisi express from Port Said, and the Austrian Lloyd Trieste-Vienna express from Alexandria.
As regards heavy luggage, it must be borne in mind that very little luggage is allowed free on the railways of Europe, but there are several good and responsible forwarding agents in Egypt who undertake at a fixed charge to deliver packages to any address in Europe.
The quickest manner of getting to Europe from Port Said is undoubtedly by the fast Mail
Steamers "Osiris" and "Isis" to
These small but comfortable ships have enormously powerful engines, and attain a very
high rate of speed. They are called the "ferry boats," having been specially built to
carry the British mail from
