War Declared
Against Turks
Continued From Page One)


One report from st. Petersburg
published there in the newspaper
Retcn was that the Bedouins had oc-
cupied the British port of Berberik
and had made all the officials pris-
oners. There is no confirmation of
this here.
Turkey has available for use in
Egypt the troops of the garrison of
Yemen, generally called upon to sup
press the chronically rebellious tribes
in Arabia. This garrison is about
10000 strong, or two corps Of 10000
each.
The British army of occupation in
Egypt is about 5000 strong and there
are about 1900 native troops.
A dispatch from Rome declares
that Bulgaria and Roumania are ne
gotiating for the purpose of arrang
ing tc act in concert in case either
country is menaced. The same dis
patch states that Bulgaria, in spite
of report from another source that
she will maintain her neutrality, has
called her second line reservists.
Reports from italian sources are
that the situation there is still acute,
the war party gaining the ascendan-
cy, at least in popular feeling. No
action has yet been taken by King
Emmanuel on the designations of the
cabinet, which quit in body.
London, Nov. 3.-A dispatch from
Bordeaux by the Central News says:
"The French government issued
statement late yesterday saying that
the turkish government in reply TO
the rote sent by the triple entente
powers, confined itself to proposing
the recalling of the Turkish warships
to the Dardanelles, and expressed a
desire to remain at peace with Rus
sia, France and England, but in de-
fault of the dismissal of the German
officers in Ottoman service, the gov
ernments Of. the triple entente could
not hope that Turkey would be able
to maintain the passive attitude she
has offered to adopt.
"Thc Ottoman government not hav-
ing thought it its duty to give, by
Cismissing the German officers, the
mark of sincerity to it's intentions
which had been requested, the ambas
sadors of France, Russia and Great
Britain, in conformity with instruc-
tions from their governments, de-
manded passports from the grand vi
zier end left Turkey.
"From impressions received from
Northern Africa it appears that the
Mussulman government intends in 10
degree to throw it's lot with the
Turks"
London, Nov. 3.-Thc Grand Vizier
of Turkey has apologized on behalf
of his government for the warlike OPP
erations of the Turkish fleet under
the German commanders in the Black
sea, but it is stated authoritatively
this evening that the Porte will have
to go very much further than this
before the powers of the triple en-
tente will agree to resume friendly
relations with the Ottoman govern
ment.
There is every reason to believe that

zier, which, it is understood comes

Carranza Will
Retire from
the Presidency
Continued from Page one0

Vera Cruz without delay met with
sharp answer yesterday from the
state department.
In an aggressive note the depart
ment informed him in effect that his
wishes would be fulfilled and the
troops withdrawn if he would give
the assurance this government de-
mands as to the safety of life and
property of its citizens in Mexico.
Carranza was blantly informed
that the United States cannot extend
to his government any sort of actual
recognition so long as the guarantees
are not forthcoming.
He was reminded that the United
States recognizes his regime only as
a de facto government and will not
extend permanent recognition to any
government which does not give as
surances in satisfactory form.
Although the state department did
not tell what prompted the sending
of the note, it is understood it was a
sequel to the receipt of dispatches
from the border that the Aguas Cali
entes convention had elected Gutierrez
provisional president of the republic.
In the meantime the acuteness of
the situation at Vera Cruz gives this
government considerable anxiety.
Secretary of War Garrison, who
was lack at his desk after an absence
of several days, said that General
Funston, in command of the American
troops at Vera Cruz, had informed
him that he had no news of political
events in Mexico, and that he had no
fear concerning an immediate attack.
The significance of this lies in the
fact that it shows that General Fun
ston and his chiefs in Washington
have been in conference on the SUBJ
iect of an assault and consequently
are on the alert for it.
1t is known that the army is pre-
pared to send reinforcements to Cen
eral Funston the moment the need
of them develops and the navy de-
partment is also ready to add to the
fleet of war vessels it now has off
Vera Cruz.
While the war department official
ly denies it has ordered any addition
al men to Vera Cruz, it is known
that officers are going back to their
regiments on the border and officers
of the marine corps are returning to
their companies in Vera Cruz.
In general everything is being pre-
pared for the contingency which
seems to be threatening.
Secretary Garrison had long con-
ference with the President and Mex
lean affairs were taken up. Another
confer ence was had between Secre-
tary Garrison, Major General Woth-
crspocn, chief of staff; Acting Secre-
tary of State Lansing and Assistant
Secretary of War Breckenridge.
Disturbing news was received in
the form of dispatch that Carranza
has denied the claim of the Aguas
Calientes convention to supreme au-
thority and has renewed his offer to
step down if Villa and Zapata also
agreed to retire to private life. Other
wise he says he has an able-bodied
army ready to fight the question out
and civil war will result.
