The Crisis in Turkey.
THE SULTAN DEFENDS HIMSELF. HE BLAMES THE CHRISTIANS FOR ILUSAGE OP MOSLEMS. (Per Press Association) London, September 16. The Russian, French and Turkish Ambassadors have bad interviews with Lord Salisbury. Constantinople, Sept. 17. The Sultan expresses surprise at the blind rage of the English newspapers, and denies that he is misruling the Armenians, but he, on theother hand, retorts that many Moslems have sought refuge in Turkey to escape the ill-usage of the Christians. The accidental breaking of a quantity of glass caused a terrible panic in Galata and Pera. Eyery shop was shut up and the houses barricaded. Fearing that an attempt was about to be made to crown his younger brother as Sultan, the latter suddenly replaced the Albanian Zouave guard at the Yeldiz Palace.
