adjustment of the way in which it
would be permitted to dissolve.

Final Treaty
Between Italy and
Turkey Signed.

Ouchy, Switzerland, Oct. 1S.-The
final draft Of the treaty of peace be-
tween Turkey and Italy was signed.
at half past three o'clock, this after
noon.
Just prior to the signature of the
treaty by the Italian and Turkish del
egates, Il number of officials from the
Swiss foreign office arrived at the no.
tel and exchanged congratulations
with the plenipotentiaries on the COM
pietion. of what will be known in his
tory, as the Treaty of Lausanne
The peace treaty by no means is
one-sided or ccuched in such terms
as usually are imposed by victor
upon vanquished. Not only have
Turkish susceptibilities carefully been
safeguarded in the text of the treaty,
but the Ottoman plenipotenitary have
succeeded in obtaining from italy con-
iieial jurisdiction over Molsems) and
customs duties as we'll as a disguised
indemnity.
Upon these concessions Turkey de-
ponds greatly To offset the decree Of
Sultan granting independence to Tri-
poll and Cyrenaica without even 4
hint of recognizing the right of Italy
to assume sovereignty over them.
Italy's maintenance of her law of an
nexation of the new colonial empire.
therefore, is of unilateral character,
there being no bond on the part Of
the Porte To approve Italy's procedure.
