yarship TO go to Turkey

The United States will send a warship TO
Turkey. The reported lootIng of st. Paul's
American College at Tarsns. Asia Minor, has
stirred the authorities into immediate action.
Acting Secretary OF the Navy McAdoo has sent
a cablegram to Rear Admiral Kirkland, COM
manding the European Station. directing him
to send at once Of the vessels under his
command to the Syrian coast to give adequate
protection to American citizens in that section,
and to investigate the reported outrages on tile
American institution at Tarsus. This action
was the result of a conference with Acting Sec
rotary of State Adee.
Some little time will elapse before one of the
vessels Of the European Squadron can reach the
point to which it has been ordered Both are
now at Gravesend, England, and Admiral
Kirkland was recently given permission by the
Navy Department to place the Marblehead in
dry dock for the purpose of having her bottom
cleaned and painted IL is thought ut the
Department that the Marhlehead may still be
in dock, i'm which case tim San Francisco will
probably 20 this duty. 1t will probably
take this vessel more than two weeks to reach
her destination.
