Britain and Turkey.
London, May 7. Vice-Admiral Lord Beresford’s fleet now in the Gulf of Aegina, is proceeding to Piraeus. (The ultimatum of Britain to Turkey had a sobering effect. At Cairo sermons were preached in the mosques of a less inflammatory nature. The, Times’ Constantinople correspondent reports a growing impression that one result of the Porte’s obstinacy will be a change in Egypt’s relations with Turkey. It Is felt that the part played by Mukjitar Pasha will justify Britain in refusing to allow any Turkish representative ,to remain in Egypt. The commissioner’s mission was apparently to encourage anti-British agitation, for which he was subsidised at Constantinople. The Porte’s taclics are still dilatory. The German Press, despite the Berlin Government’s correct attitude’, accuse Great Britain of land-grabbing in the Sinai Peninsula.
