Washington, Nov. 18.-The United

bassador Morganthau at Constantine
pie, to ask an explanation of the fir
ing by Turkish forces at the launch
from the American cruiser Tennessee.
Secretary Daniels simultaneously ca
bled the commanders of the Tennessee
and the North Carolina which also is
in Mediterranean waters, to take no
action which might embarass the
American government, and to await
instructions from Washington.
Officials here decline to believe that
the firing was an unfriendly or hos
tile act. They thought the firing was
friendly act, giving the customary
warning by a signal shot that the port
of Smyrna was mined and closed, else
the boat was turned back because by
its attempt to enter without a pre-
vious arrangement with the Turkish
authorities. These views, they ad-
mitted, were purely speculative.
