Match-Two EmpsrOrs to Meet.
London dispatch states: A high official Of
the foreign Office thinks il improbable that an
immediate serious dispute will arise over the
sultan's permitting the Moscows to pass
through the Dardanelles. Official dispatches
record tine fact that the Moscowa's stoppsge at
the entrance to the straits was due to breach
of the regulation requiring that notice be sent
to the porte and that the sultans frman be OBJ
tanned before making the passage. The Russian
government replied that the customary notice
was unnecessary, as the only military aboard
were soldiers who had been discharged, having
served their time. similar case occurred in
April when Russian ship, under the CONNER
cial flag, carrying soldiers and war material, was
permitted to pass through the Dardanelles.
| The British ambassador then advised the sultan
| that Great Britain and the other signatory
| powers would take united action in the event
Of any material change in the portes policy
in regard to the Dardaneles. The signatory
| powers were cognizant of the Moscowa incl
dent, but do not consider it such breach Of
the treaty OF Paris as to require formal
| protest.
