ITALY DETERMINED
TO HOLD TRIPOLI

Chiasso, Switzerland, Sept 5.-Italy
has determined to maintain its hold
upon Tripoi and Cyrenicea. No great
advance has been made in the unofficial
negotiations now going on in Switzer-
land between italian delegates and rep
resentatives of Turkey.
Italy demands absolute and complete
sovereignty over Tripoli and Cyrenicea,
without, however, exacting its recogni-
ton from Turkey. 1t demands the evae-
nation of the Turkish troops and it is
pointed out that the administration at
Constantinople might find way to meet
these demands by proclaiming the indie
pendence of these territories, entrusting
the Arabs to govern themselves.
