Kansas City Interview Excites Surprise
in Naval Circles.

Kansas City Interview Exeites Surprise
in Naval Circles.
Washington, Aug. 27.-Capt. James N.
Forsythe, u. s. N, has been called on
for an explanation Of an interview with
him in Kansas City last night on the
Sampson Schley controversy. Acting
Secretary Hackett and the officials OF
the department were much surprised to
read the interview Yesterday morning.
IN the face of the positive orders issued
by Secretary of the Navy Long before
his departure for his summer vacation,
prohibiting persons connected with the
navy discussing the Sampson -Schley
controversy in any way pending the
court of inquiry. 1t can hardly be be-
lieved at the department that any off,
Ger of the navy, and especially one Of
the high rank of Capt Forsythe, car
have been guilty of violating not only
the navy regulations, but the express
orders Of Secretary Long.
Acting Secretary Hackett wrote to
Capt. Forsythe yesterday. asking him
whether he had given such an inter-
view. No further action will be taken
in this case until Capt. Forsythe's an
swer has been received. The action
taken by Acting Secretary Hackett was
not official, as the letter did not go thru
the Office of the judge advocate general,
which is the usual course in such cases.
1t was personal letter from the assist
ant secretary to Capt. Forsythe.
II Capt. Forsythe denies the interview
Il is not probable that he will be called
to account for 1t officially unless evi.
dence should be admitted to the depart
ment from some quarter contradicting
his denial.

NAY BREAK CONCERT
Rupture Of Diplomatic Relations
Between Turkey and France
Has Possibilities.
Concert Under Which Integrity
Of Turkey Is Guaranteed
May Be Dissolved.
Not Impossible That II Will Mark
Beginning Of Ottoman Em.
pire's Downfall.

Washington, Aug. 27.-It Is feared In
official circles here that the withdrawal
OF the French ambassador from Con-
stantinople marks the dissolution of the
concert Of European powers, under
which the integrity of Turkey is guar
lanteed. BY the treaty of Berlin all the
great powers Of Europe subscribed to
the agreement to refrain from any act
that would tend to the destruction Of the
Ottoman empire. This action was taken
to forestall what were conceived to be
the designs of Russia to seize on Turk
ish territory, and Russia herself was led
to subscribe to the agreement by force
of circumstances. Altho several times
severely strained, notably by such
events az the last war between Turkey
and Greece, this fact has so far endured
without amendment, but it is appre-
hended now that IL the action of France
is carried out to the extreme indicated
in the dispatches each of the other sig
natory powers will feel obliged, in self
protection, to disregard the agreement
and press upon Turkey vast financial
and other claims that have accumulat-
ed in the past quarter of a century. with
the result of disrupting the present
Turkish government

precautions were taken preceding the
visits Of Faure, Carnot or Loubet to the
chateau. At Dunkerque similar sverifi-
cations are taking place, while the po-
lice headquarters al. Paris echo with the
footsteps Of scores OF private agents
who come to have personal talks with
the chiefs of the department, whose In
structions regarding the police arrange
ments for the event cover dozen large
ages of printed matter.
In reviewing the situation from this
standpoint L'Aurore Is led to remark,
earcastically: "One does not realize how
dear is human life until an emperor
comes into the neighborhood."

London, Aug. 27.-Byron Brenan
British consul general at Shanghai, / who
has Just returned to England, said to
the Associated Press today:
From the standpoint of foreign in
teretss, China is far worse today than
before the International occupation OF
Pekin Formerly the Chinese believed
the foreign interests were. at any rate to
q certain extent. Identical Thanks to
recent events they are now better able
than ever to play off one power against
another, so patiently have the interests
of the several powers been shown to di-
verge. There is a very hostile feeling in
many parts of northern China and local
disturbances may be expected"
Brenan declared that Russia and Ger
many both had far more influence with
the Chinese government than Great Bri-
tain. He believed the United States
would be the greatest sufferer by clos
ing OF Manchuria to foreign trade,
