UNREST IN TURKEY.
KEMAL ATTACKS THE SULTAN. By Telegraph.—Press Asan —Copyright. Received Dec. 27, 7.5 p.m. Constantinople, Dec. 26. Kemal, in the Angora Parliament, claimed that his Government was the Government of Turkey. He intended to return to Constantinople when the powers of the Sultan would be limited in accordance with the principles of popular government as expressed in the National Parliament. The greater part of his speech was fierce invective against the Sultan for dissolving Parliament two years ago. At one point of the speech the deputies shouted: “May Allah take vengeance on the Sultan. ’ Kemal went on: “The Sultan is relying on the constitution established by the purely absolute regime which threw us on the streets. The constitution is obsolete, and must be superseded.”—Aus.N.Z. Cable Assn.
