EVERY NATION OF THE WORLD
EXCEPT AMERICA TO Be AT WAR
ALL COUNTRIES MAY SOON BE
ENGAGED IN THE EARTH'S
GREATEST GRAPPLE.

Observation-Disclosures have
come to many European diplomats
in Washington that hostilities may
extend not only to Italy and the Bal
kans should Turkey enter the field,
but the Caucasus, Persia, Egypt and
India as we'll In such event the pres
ence of Japanese troops and fleets
in western Asia to assist England in
either India or Persia would not be
surprising, according to diplomats
representing the allied powers.
Japan's Operations.
While Japan has confined her pres
ent operations against Germany to
Kiao-Chow and the China seas the
spirit of the Anglo-Japanese alliance,
it was said, might lead her to extend
helping hand to her ally elsewhere
in Asia. A. Rustem Bey, Turkish
ambassador here, made public ca
blegram from his government which
he interpreted as conclusive evil
dence" of the porte's intention to re-
main neutral, but his views were not
shared by diplomats representing the
allies. The latter are confident that
Turkey is merely delaying an an
nouncement while completing mill
tary operations. The Turkish ambas-
sador's cablegram was as follows:
"By virtue of the neutrality we
have declared the military authorities
have received orders to insure the
safety of merchant vessels of the bel
ligerent nations taking refuge in our
ports"
Says Americans Will Be Safe.
The ambassador showed Secretary
Bryan the message, assuring him al
so that Americans would be safe.
There is no danger to Americans
and there need be no fear on that
subject" said the secretary after
wards.

Troops On Transports.

Yelled references in a dispatch
from Toxic that thousands of Japan
csc troops had been embarked on
transports and many observers be-
lieved they were going to France,
have aroused much speculation here.
Some thought it not unlikely that
shrOuded in the mystery of the strict
censorship Japan even now may be
preparing 70 rextensive movements
in western Asia.
The possibility of an attack by
Turkey on Persia as blow at both
Russia and England. who have
spread their protection over that
state, was discussed among diplomats
as a likely consequence of a declara-
ton of war by the porte.

increase is greater than the number
of those restored and sent home and
