Constantinople, November 29. — The Sultan's action in delaying his sanction of extra guardships of the Powers in the Bosphorus is attributed to Izzet Bey, his most favoured adviser, who was trying to strain and divide the Powers for which the embassies were pressing. The Consuls have abandoned helping the starving in Sassavum.
The Kurds have destroyed relief buildings, and devastated a large area. Austria, Italy, and Germany, do n»t insist on an extra guardship in the Bosphorus.
