the end of the war.
Complete and public apology BIZ the
Turkish government Tor the hostile
acts Of its warships; promise OF
adequate indemnity, and assurances
that violations of neutrality hereto
fore complained of would not be re-
peated in the future.
There is not the slightest belief here
that Turkey will yield to this extent.
Her apology, previously rendered and
declined. is described as a half-heart-
ed affair. II represented the beliefs
Of the peace party In the Turkish cab
met and the Turkish ambassadors at
Bordeaux and London. The latter Of
ficials realize that the allies are de-
termlned. If the war finally ends with
them victor. that Turkey shall be dis
membered for all time and that there
shall be no more Turkey in Europe.
II was because they emphasized this
view TO the Porte that the apology was
rendered.
While the decisive war measures
wait on the further diplomatic
changes II is understood here that
both Russia and England have already
acted to carry the fighting directly to
the Turks. The Anglo-French fleet is
patrolling Turkish waters and will
prevent the transport of troops. Il
will also probably she'll the forts a
