The Italians claim another smashing
victory over the Turks. The battle was
fought near the seashore, and the
Italians were aided by the guns OF the
warships. So far, the Italians have
not been able to drive the Turks and
Arabs in Africa much further back
than cannon range from the sea. Not
withstanding, the war is popular in
Italy, and though it has cost at least
s50,000,000, the government has not
been obliged to borrow any money.
Italy has made a substantial gain in
the capture of Rhodes and some other
Aegean islands. but the other powers
may protest against her keeping them.
