NOT READY To END WAR
Italy Says Mediation Impossi-
BILE Until Turkey Recognizes
Occupation of Tripoli.

PARIS October 3.-The Italian embassy
this evening authorized the following
statement:
Mediation by the powers between Italy
and Turkey is mentioned by French ana
foreign newspapers. No declaration in
this regard has been made by the royal
government, which is resting upon the
logic of events 1t cannot speak of medi-
alton or negotiations until after Turkey
shall have recognized the occupation of
Tripoli by Italy
A dispatch to the Temps from Athens
says that fourteen Turkish warships
have re-entered the Dardanelles.
Youssouf Zia Pasha, the Turkish am
bassador to the United States, reiter-
ated today his belief that a settlement
will be reached in the near future. He
declared that Turkey could not con-
sent. however to any arrangement
other than an honorable" one:
ceding of Tripoli to Italy would not be
within the scope of such a settlement
as he considered possible.
Turkey does not want war, he said,
land has tried to avoid the hostilities
that have been opened. On the other
hand, it cannot recognize the right OF
any nation simply because 1t wants
the territory"
The ambassador attributed the alb
stantinople to the confusion surround
ing the forming of the new cabinet, Of
which Said Pasha is to be the grand
vi2ier.
