Washington. April 10. After much
effort, owing probably to some con-
fusion in wire transmission. the State
Department officials have succeeded IN
translating the cipher cable dispatch
received by Secretary Sherman last
night from United States Minister Ter
rell. The result is the following official
statement:
1.-THE Department of State has re-
ceiyed dispatch from the United
States Minister to Turkey concering the
rupture OF relations between that coun-
try and Greece and the Turkish decara.
tion of war.
Mr.. Terrell states that the minister
from Greece has been Informed that be
must leave before next Wednesday.
He is not permitted TO communicate
by telegraph with the Greek govern.
ment. There are perhaps ~, 600 men
subjects of Greece in Turkey. All
subjects OF Greece are required 10 leave
Constantinople in 10 days. The note
of the Porte TO the foreign Powers dis
claims any desire for territorial acquisi-
ton. The Greek minister informs Mr..
Terrell that the Greek government re-
quires all subjects OF Greece of military
age reserved for military duty. The
Turkish government claims that regular
Greek troops seized and were fortifying
AnolIpsis in violation of the argeemeni
prohibiting it. Hence an attack there
by the Turks on April 10th. Tie
Turkish troops are scattered all along
the border of Thessaly, and cannot
quickly be concentrated for decisive
battel. This may enable the Greek
army to fight them in detail"
