“ In response to a pressing request from great masses of the Turkish population, who have been unable to witness the ceremony, it has been decided again to disembark the German crew, and, beginning to-morrow at 10 a.m., the impressive spectacle will be gone through at regular intervals of an hour throughout the day. All the railway companies have announced cheap excursions, and there can be no doubt that these disembarcations will easily surpass all earlier ones. ”
