Lack of Enthusiasm-Dis-
tress Is Already Sorely
Felt.

London, Sept. "a dispatch to Reu-
ter's Telegram company dated Aug. 81
declares that the idea of a fresh war is
distasteful to Turkey. Even in the
army there appears to be lack of en-
thusiasm. Practically all business has
been suspended and distress is be-
ginning to be sorely felt.
Today the number of German officers
and men now in Constantinople is more
than 1000, the correspondent goes on,
The fresh arrivals are being either
drafted into the navy or sent to the
forts along the Bosphorus and the Dar-

German reports of recent successes
against the British and the French
armies are @eing exploited in Constan-

embassy.

Turkey going to war, British, French

send their families away. Already a

Vienna, via Rome, Sept 5.-Strong
German reinforcements have been
rushed to the badly harassed armies OF
General Moritz Won Auffenberg and
General Danltl who have been driven
back in their invasion of Russian Po-
land. The German forces consist of
four divisions of infantry with sup
porting artillery and it is believed they
will enable General Van Auffenberg to
withdraw his forces to a secondary
line of defense and reform for future
aggressive work. 1t is admitted, how
ever, that the Austrian armies under
Won Auffenberg and Dankl are in a
very difficult position. The breaking
of the Austrian lines in northeastern
Galicia which eliminated in the evacu-
alton of Lenberg enabled the Russians
partly to flank the Austrian army in
Russian Poland and caused an aban-
donment of the proposed attack on
Warsaw.
German reinforcements are also sup
porting the Austrian army operating
from the west bank of the San river
and from the fortified positions at Jar
oslav and Przemysl. 1t is considered
certain that the Russians under Gem
eral Ruzsky will attack in force these
positions as 1t is now believed to be

London, Sept. 5.-"One for all and
all for one"
That is tonight the position of Great
Britain, France and Russia. Germany
is the common enemy. No peace will
be made with the kaiser's hosts that
is not agreed to by each of these three
nations. This was decided on today
when an offensive and defensive agree
that even though France or England or
Russia should be overwhelmed, SO long
as one country is able to continue the
fight, the fighting must go on. And 1t
means that If Germany is finally crush
ed-and all three nations insist that
she will be-a lasting peace will be
concluded by the three nations and not
by any one of them.
The agreement as signed at the for
eign office this afternoon formally
pledging the three nations as allies,
reads as follows;
"The undersigned, duly authorized
thereto by their respective govern
ments hereby declare as follows:
THE British, French and Russian
governments mutually engage not to
conclude peace separately during the
present war. The three governments
agree that when the terms of peace
come to be discussed no one of the
allies will demand conditions of peace
without the previous agreement of the
other allies.

The Importance of this agreement

not. Her treaty promises were of
diplomatic assistance only. That she
went to war has so far been insisted
to have been entirely due to Germany's
invasion of Belgium, thereby violating
the neutrality of that kingdom. Eng

The refusal of the crew of the

ed the Tarragon and complained that
his crew had disobeyed lawful orders
and had refused or neglected their

Investigation by the master of the
Tarragon showed that of the crew of
five men, one was an American citizen,
who was loyal to the captain, and the
other four were foreigners, who re-

MOY SING IN TROUBLE.
Faces Charges Made by Wife and
by U, S. Government.

Moy Sing, a Chinese cook, who is
said to be the first Chinaman ever
sued for an absolute divorce in the
District of Columbia. has appealed
from a decision of United States Com
missioner Taylor ordering his deporta-
tion as having entered the United
States unlawfully.
Mrs. NIoy Sing, wife of the celestial,
filed suit against him several weeks
ago. naming as correspondent a white
woman. with whom Moy Sing is said
to have gone through wedding cere-
mony in New York. Mrs. Sing said
she had met and married Moy on the
Pacific slope. where she was a mission
worker. The husband and alleged CO.
respondent both denied the allegations
of the wife.
The governments attention was at
tracted to the Chinaman and his ar
rest followed as a supposed violator OF
the immigration laws. At the trial be-
fore the commissioner Moy Sing claim
ed he was born in Truckee, Cal, but
the testimony in support of his claim
seemed not to impress Commissioner
Taylor, who ordered the Chinaman de-
ported.

before the commissioner.
