rior and the ambassador said it was
conclusively proved that no declaration
of war had been made though he could
not give out the text.
The British officials here are keenly
interested in the Berlin report, although
it aroused no surprise. Great Britain
had, been expecting declaration of
war from Turkey, it is said, for many

''Reactionary' Policy of

ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1

NEW ORLEANS, Sept Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, in a speech at
the French opera house tonight, de-
cried the 'reactionary" policy of the
government in handling the tariff
question, particularly as it affected
the Louisiana sugar interests and re-
iterated his charges that the pay
ing of s25,000,000 TO Colombia as the
result of the Panama canal zone
deal would be blackmail He left
late tonight for a one day campaign
in the third Louisiana congressional
district, which comprises the largest
sugar growing section Of the state.
Admission to the opera house was
gained only by cards issued by the
local progressive committee. Some
time before the former president be-
gan his address the place was filled
and the doors closed. The police had
some difficulty with the crowds al
the entrances.
Col. Roosevelt dwelt on the prin-
ciples of the progressive party, but
laid especial stress upon the tariff
insofar as it affected the sugar grow
ers of Louisiana. He stood out
strongly for federal control of the
Mississippi river.
In the afternoon he talked a few
minutes at Southern Park at the La
Dor Day picnic. In that address he
emphasized that the labor unions
were in principle all right if led by
the right sort of men.
There are little crooks as well as
big crooks he said, and the pro
gressive party is after them all.

EXPOSES PLAN
TO BRING j. s.
INTO THE FRAY
Turkish Ambassador Says
Intimation by Great Brit
ain She Would Welcome
Yankee Ships in Turkish
Waters is Vulgar Trap
fAssocIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

WASHINGTON. Sept 7-Charging
that the intimation by Great Britain
to the United States that she would
welcome the presence of American
war vessels in Turkish waters to pro-
tect Christians was merely a vulgar
trap to get the United States mixed
in the European fray on the allies
side Rustem Bey, the Turkish am
bassador. issued tonight the following
statement:
According to todays papers, Great
Britain, following in the footsteps of
France, has agitated before the eyes
of the United States the spectre of
massacre of Christians in Turkey
and made this gruesome picture of
the immediate future, drawn with an
absolute disregard to the truth. pre-
text for requesting the United States
to dispatch warships to Turkish
ports.
That there have been massacres
| in Turkey, | cannot, unfortunately,
deny, but the victims suffered at the
hands of Moslems, not as Christians
| but as political agitators engaged in
undermining the Ottoman state, while
| Haunting in the face of the govern
ment, and the dominant race, the
| support of Russia, France and Eng
| land.
/ Under the same provocation. what
would Russia have done, who has
given the world spectacle of not
one but twenty pogroms against an
| innocent race? What France, who
smoked to death in caverns, the AL
| gerians fighting for the independence
| of their land, and who later on re-
joiced in that grand production. the
| Communes? What England, whose
punishment of the rebels in the In
dian mutiny was to blow them of
the mouths of guns?
Since a large number of American
papers are siding with Great Britain
and France in this affair, | permit
\ myself to say that the thought of the
lIynchings which occur daily in the
United States and the memory of the
water cures in the Philippines
should make them chary of attacking
Turkey in connection with acts o
savagery committed by her under
provocation, compared with which the
economic competition of the Italian ol
the sniping of a Filipino or even the
outrage of a negro, are as nothing.
"Supposing for the sake of argu
ment, what in reality could never
happen, that negroes were discovered
to be engaged in a conspiracy witt
Japanese to facilitate an invasion O
the United States by the latter. how
many of them would be left alive t'
ltell the tale?'

WASHINGTON, Sept. I. - The
stranding of the British cruiser War
rior, reported to the German embassy
in wireless from Berlin, remained a
mystery tonight. The message read:
The British cruiser Warrior was
stranded probably as result of fight
with the cruiser Goeben while escap-
ing from the Bosphorus."
The Goeben, the German vessel,
which with the Breslau escaped from
British pursuers at the time the war
began, sought refuge in the Darda-
nelles. Later the ships are said to have
been sold to the Turkish government.
Diplomats are at a loss to explain the
Berlin message. They believed it i'm
possible that the Warrior could have
been attempting to escape from the
Bosphorus as Turkey mined the straits,
and ships would not have entered. Had
