Cause Of Controversy.
ROME, Sept. 27-Strict censorship
prevents correspondents from cabling
anything with reference to the Italo-
Turkish crisis in connection with Tri-
poll, except what the government may
| chose to pass. No objection is raised,
however, to the story explaining how
the present crisis arose 1t is known
that the italian ministry does not con-
1 template any act that would warrant
Turkey in declaring war.
/ Serious friction between Turks and
! Italians In Tripoli started with the rise
OF the Young Turks regime in the OF
1 toman Empire Until about fifteen
years ago the Arabs in Tripoli were so
suspicious of the Turks that the latter
lacked the necessary support to make
invasion Of the Italians Recently.
with the gradual disappearance of the
Arabs, the Turks got the idea that
they must be regarded as the masters
of the place, and so the difficulties OF
the Italians have increased. The Turks
became more and more insolent and
s refractory, and every attempt to intro
duce new Italian enterprise or to ex-
tend an old one met with opposition.
This opposition took forms peculiar
ly calculated to arouse the Indignation
of those who have suffered from IT.
Countless pretexts were used to keep
Italians from getting land.
European travellers especially Itali-
ans, were almost excluded from the
, country lest a foreigner should get In
to trouble and bring about alien inter
vention. The newly founded Turkish
: schools fred their pupils with patriot
ism The gendarmie was reorganized
under competent direction. the garri-
son was increased to 10000 and mill
: tary men were put in positions of ali-
I. thority The soldiers were mainly AL
banians and Syrians armed with Mall
ser rifles. Forts were built around the
town commanding the harbor. They
:, were plentifully supplied with Krupp
guns and mountain batteries were add
ed to the artillery. The Arab irregu-
lar cavalry was furnished with mod
!, ern rifles
Everything that has been done has
indicated that it is the purpose of the
young Turks tc make the Italian posi-
tion in Tripoli actually untenable, and
to cause It's ambition respecting the
reversion of the yilayet to Italy impos-
sible Of realization. Italy now does
not want to seize Tripoli, but 1t wants
to compel the Turks to let the Italians
work there unhindered on the old
lines. 1t holds steadily to its determi
. nation to occupy the county in the
event of its ultimate surrender by the
, Turks.
Want to Get Out.
