The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-04-06

One is that the Russian government ia
acting on the pretext that the former
shah's brother, Salar ed Dowleh, who
in reality is a great favorite with the
viceroy of the Caucasus, must be driv-
en- from Kermanshah by Russian
troops and therefore Russian army
corps will enter northwestern Persia
and occupy the country. The other
explanation is that Italy began the
war on Turkey with the consent Of
Russia and that Russian troops will
make a demonstration on the Persian
Turkish frontier to force Turkey to
accept the Italian peace proposals.
In any event the people Of Trans
caucasia are pessimistic concerning
the chances of a war. In Russia 1t is
well known that the policy of the
government is dictated by a desire to
destroy constitutionalism in Turkey
as well as in Persia, fearing the effect
of liberal ideas on Russia itself

HAND OF ITALY IS RAISED
FOR TELLING BLOW At TURKEY

PARIS, March 25.-It is believed
here that Italys long expected direct
blow at Turkey is about to be struck.
Various indications seem to uphold
this theory. Thirty thousand re-en-
forcements have just been landed in
Tripoli, where the hot season will
begin soon, with its danger of cholera
and dysentery. Russia's efforts to per-
suade the powers to force Turkey to
conclude a peace have failed definite
ly. leaving the Mussulamans appar-
emily more determined than ever 10
continue the struggle.
May Attack ConstantinopIe.
In view of Italy's vastly superior
equipment popular opinion in that
country is reported to be strongly in
favor of an attack on Constantinople,
Just at this time, also, the censorship
is tightening and this is looked upon
as the strongest indication that the
plans are about to be carried out
Opinion here is divided as TO where
the blow VIII probably fall Some say
