Cast Lot with Germany.
TURKS NOW IN EGYPT
Problem of England and Russia

LOyal--Another Serious Cues
ton Relates to Attitude of
the Balkan States.

LONDON, Nov. l. $50 p. m.-Turkcy has
definitely thrown in her lot with Austria
and Germany and If Portugal Is counted
there now are eleven powers at war
with prospects of three more-Greece,
Bulgaria and demonstrating drawn in.
The note which Great Britain presented
to Turkey on Friday last, demanding an
explanation Of the actions OF the Turkish
fleet in the Black sea and the dis
nlantling Of tho rorm.r German cruisers,
the Goeben ana the Bresau, was really
an Ll;imatum to which Turkey was re-
CURED TO make 4 reply by Saturday
evening.
SO far as is known here, Geographic
communication with Turkey being in
tcrrupted. no answer was made and the
ambassador at the Ottoman capital f
the triple entente. it is understood, de-
manded and received their passports
Turkish troops which had been on the
Egyptian border for some time. already
are reported to have crossed the frontier,
while the Turkish feet continues to mem
ace Russian towns and shipping in the
Black sea.
Neither Russia nor Great Britain was
nprcparcd for this move on the part Of
Turkey which, government officials say
was known to have been under the inhu-
once of Germany. and the allied powers
have forces on hand ready to oppose a
Turkish invasion.
When the regular forces We're with
drawn from Egypt to take part in the
war in Europe they were immcdiatee re-
placed by troops from home, much
greater i'm numbers at least, and only last
week they paraded through the streets
of Cairo making a splendid impression.

circumstances would prefer not to fight

London. Ort. - 1855 u. m.-prince
Louis of Rattenberg. against whom
there have been no open chargets. but
much idle gossip because of his Austrian
origin, has resigned his position as first
sea lord of the admiralty, it is thought
probable because OF a newspaper cam
paign against his holding such a high
command.
Announcement Of Prince Louis rcsigna-
ton was made tonight in the court cir
cular, which recorded that the prince
had been received I'm audience by the
King ON relinquishing his appointment.
Prime" Louis of Battenberg, although
/ born in Austria came to England as a
boy and was naturalzed in 1868 when he
was but fourteen years of age. His
| rise in the navy was slower than that
of most cadets for he had been in the
navy % years befor he was promoted
to captaincy and it was another 10
years bfeorc he became rear admiral
Even after that he went up by easy
stages, but finally his great ability and
services being recognized he was APP
pointed first sea lord In l912-a few years
after his visit to America
RORN IN AUSTRIA
outside of the fact that he was born
In Austria. the chief argument his oppo-
nents made against him was that he Is
the brother-in-law of Prince Henry of
Prussia who holds a somewhat similar
command In the German navy.
There were rumorl some time ago that
Prince Louis had been confined in the
tower of London, but these were too
ridiculous to be given serious consdora-
ton, although the authorities deemed 1t
expedicnt that he should appear moro in
public instead of ccrfirlng himself to the
admiralty, whore s'nce the outbreak Of
the war he had been working night and
day directing the strategy Of the navy,
tho Prince berg considered one of the
most noted strateGists OF the admiralty.
