San Francisco, Cal., April 24—
Broughton Brandenburg, the writer,
was arrested here today. Little
James Sheppard Cabanne, who was
kidnapped from his grandmother’s
home in St. Louis, was with Bran-
denburg when he was arrested.

Rouge about 2:55 o’clock this after-
noon, over the lines of the Frisco,

dent of the Frisco lines; J. C. Barry,
chief engineer and general manager
of the Rock Island system, and J.

Constantinople, April 24.—Aflat
night of fighting, which became
perate at daybreak this morning,
thousand loyalist troops around Yit
liz Kiosk were surrounded. .Jjj
The Young Turks threw a
about Ytldiz Kiosk and the Sultan f§-j|
after bloody
more

||
a prisoner.
Constantinople fell
fighting.
The Sultan’s body guard of aht’
thousand fought with fanatical frenzy.
The casualties were two thousand
dead and many thousand
wounded.
The Young Turks forced their way
through the sacred portals of the
palace and had a conference with the
Sultan to decide what fate ahould be
meted out to him.
The Young Turks then took charge . ^
of the Constantinople barrack*. A
Both armies brought up their
lery and the roar of guns soon
to shake the city,
Frederick Moore, cor res;
the New York Sun, was seriortijyl
wounded. A soldier seeing him level
Ids camera in the act of taking a pic-
ture of the battle, thought it was an
infernal machine and fired.
Two other foreigners were killed
and several wounded.
The fighting has • been terrific
throughout Pera, Marsten and near
Stambouf.
It is a miracle that more foreigners
have not been killed.
The foreign embassies are being
'guarded by soldiers, but the Young
Turks army is far too small to co^Mt 11
with the hundred* of thousand* of
religious fanatics, who may atart a
riot at any moment.
The events of the day may precipi-
tate one of the greatest massacres
in history.
There are nearly a million religious
fanatics in Constantinople and the
immediate vicinity.
Evidences of unrest were noticeable
among them at an early hour today.
Last night loyalist soldier*, re-«
turning to their barrack* after at-
tending on ceremonies for the Sul-
tan, found that several battallions of
Young Turks had taken poasession
of the barracks. Firing began imme-
diately and two soldiers were killed,
but it is not known which side fired
the first shot.
