Turkish Diplomacy.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The action of
the Turkish government in giving it to be
understood that no guardships of the pow
ers parties to the treaty of Paris shall be
admitted to passage through the Dardan-
Giles is looked on here as shreWd piece
of diplomacy. The fact is that thus far
the United States has not made any formal
request to have q guardship at Constanti-
nople, and this announcement in advance
of the preference of request renders it
improbable THAI one will be proffered. The
purposes of the government in sending the
little Bancroft to Turkey have been care
fully concealed, both by the State and Navy
Departments. and even now 1t is not posi-
BILE to secure an official admission that 1t
was intended to send her to Constantine
pie. Beyond doubt however. it was the
purpose to have her near Constantinople,
and that, If events assumed a serious
phase. Minister Terrell might seek the
frman necessary to insure her safe pass
age through the straits. This purpose was
at last made clear yesterday when the lit
tie boat sailed from Gibraltar for Smyrna
only about 80 miles distant from Constanti-
nopie, an easy days sail, and this is proba-
bly, the reason for the semi-official an
nouncement of the position of the Turkish
government.

UNCLE SAM REBUFFED

Turkish Government Says No United
States Guardship Can Pass the
Dardanelles.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. lit has
been semi-officially announced that the
Turkish government, after Weighing
the matter over and consulting with the
contain advisers, has come to the decision
not to admit the United States cruiser
Bancroft through the Dardanelles. and
therefore she will not be able to act the
guardship of the United States legation
in those waters. The Porte. it is added, has
also decided not to admit the guardships of
Greece and Holland. which countries pro-
posed to have ships stationed in the Bos-
phorus as guardships and to furnish men
to guard their legations in case of emer-
gencies. 1t should be added however, that
the United States government is not
known to have presented through it's min
lister, Mr.. Terrell, a formal demand for the
passage of the Bancroft any other
United States war ship through the straits.
1t is stated that Russia has objected to the
presence in the Bosphorus of United States,
Grecian or Dutch guardships. The objec-
tions are said to be based the Berlin
agreement, which excludes from naval rep
1esentation in the Bosphorus any powers
that were not party to that agreement, and
that therefore the United States cannot be
the DardanelleS.
It is believed that Mr.. Terrell about a
Washington for United States war vessel.
1t is further intimated that the United
States government will insist by force, if
necessary, on the presence of the Bancroft
in the Bosphorus, taking the ground that
such a step would not be an unfriendly act
to Turkey. in view of all the circum-
stances in the case and that the protection
of lives and property of the American cit
liens made it necessary.
The Turkish government has also sent a
circular to the different embassies demand
ing the right to search foreign vessels
passing Constantinople for Armenians. 1t
is believed that the powers will not accede
to this request, as UP to the present, Ar
menans who have sought refuge on board
British or French vessels, have been pro-
tected by the guardshiDs here until the
vessels on which they had sought refuge
sailed for their destination.
Advices received here from the Island of
Crete state the crisis there is by no means
ended. The entire population of the inte-
rior of that island is still under arms and
their leaders have announced that they Will
