It concerns various claims ngalnst the Turkish government preferred by French citizens, one of them being that that of a company which built under a Turkish concession a number of quays and warehouses at Constantinople. It was agreed that the company should have the optiou of selling out to the Turkish government. Some time ago that government seriously Interfered with the administration of the quays and warehouses to the detriment of the company and lately did so to a much greater extent because of the fears of the sultan that assassins seeking to take his life would land at those quays. The company therefore decided to act upon its option and sell out to the Turkish government.
