Demands of the Great Powers for Ottoman reforms
A Daily Telegraph correspondent in Constantinople outlines the projected framework from the Great Powers. The plan includes reform, religious and political equality in Bulgaria, Bosnia, and Herzegovina, and a new provincial division with a Christian governor in Sofia, Adrianople’s loss, and Philippopolis as capital. Troop deployments, tax controls, and foreign gendarmerie provisions are detailed, with emphasis on preventing Ottoman disarmament while banning street wear of weapons.
