THE SINAI PENINSULA.
♦ — The Porte's Reluctant Surrender. (Received Last Night, at 10JU p.m.) London, Yesterday. Particulars regarding the Tabah crisis show that the Porte only yielded after Sir Nicholas O'Conor, British Minister at Constantinople, visited Tewfik Pasha (Minister of Foreign Affairs) and Ferid Pasha (the Grand Vizier), and communicated to them a statement causing Turkey to realise her peril. The acceptance of the British demands constitutes the first recognition of Britain's protectorate over Egypt. The obstinacy of the Porte centred in the use of the word " delimitation " as employed in reference to the frontier.
