GREAT ALLIED FLEET ARRIVES AT CONSTANTINOPLE.
STATELY PROCESSION THROUGH THE DARDANELLES.
PARIS. Nov. 17.
A great fleet led by the British destroyer Shark and the French destroyer Mangih passed in stately procession through the Dardanelles, and settled, bristling with guns, opposite Constantinople. The British and French missions were welcomed by noisy crowds on the quays. They found the city in the "midst of a political crisis owing to the unpopularity of Djavid Bey and Hairi, Effencli. The personal intervention of the Sultan restored the equilibrium.. Tewfik Pasha has been appointed Grand Vizier* and the ex-Ambafisador to Rome, Nabi Bey, Foreign Minister. A great number of Austrians and Germans are still carrying on intrigue in Pera. _____ *
