BALKAN WAR CLOUD
IS GROWING BIGGER

: ~ % s4 = 4 8
London. Oct. With the exception
of Roumania, the Balkan countries are
placing their armies On a war footing,
but no step has been taken indicat-
ing an outbreak Of hostilities. A dis
patch filed at Canstantinople at II
o'clock tonight announced that the
foreign minister was without any
communication with Bulgaria or Ser
via and no definite move in the way
of combined action on the part of the
great powers has been made. Short
of actual hostilities, however, the Sit
uation could hardly be worse. The
report that Turkey has decided to
seize all Greek vessels in Turkish wa
ters has an especially warlike appear
ance, while 1t is further reported that
Greece is about to proclaim the an
nexation of Crete an act which Tur-
key has repeatedly declared would be
considered casus bell.
The Neue Freie Presse of Vienna
expresses doubt whether the great
powers are in harmony on the Balkan
question. 1t regards the action OF the
Balkan states as a defeat for Eu-
ropean diplomacy and thinks Servia
Is so devoted to Russia that she
would not have ordered mobilization
without Russia's consent.
