suItan,s Speech to Parliament.

London, Dec. 11.-A Reuter- dispatch
from Constantinople gives the gist of
/ speech from the throne by the sui
tan at the opening of the Turkish par
lament. He said he was forced to
declare war when Russia attacked the
Black Sea fleet, and England and
France started troops to the Turkish
frontier He said that England, Rus
sia and Frances policy of destruction
against the Islamite world forced Tur-
key to resist armed force and call a
holy war.
The SULTAN said that the relations
of the neutral powers, especially Bull
garia, were satisfactory. The abroga-
ton of capitulations, the sultan said,
were due to special privileges grant
ed to foreigners, which assumed shape
detrimental to Turkeys sovereignty.

American government that their for.

pointed out that the American gov
ernment was inclined to regard shots
into the United States in the same
aspect. In view of the urgent tone
of the message from Provisional
President Gutierrez to General May
torena, officials believed the latter
would remove his troops and avoid
complications. Should one of the
two factions heed the warning of the
United States, the need for defensive
fire would, of course, be removed.
Secretary Bryan had received no
further word Monday night OF the
circumstances surrounding the kill
ing of two Americans at Cananea,
but as soon as the responsibility for
the occurrence is determined 1t is
understood that he will make demand
for punishment of the guilty parties.
The reports thus far received say
they were killed by irresponsible
bandits.

OF Mexico, has learned through the
Carranza force that 1900 men under
