Germany Aiding Turkey.

London, Nov. 2.-i0 D. m. The fo.- lowing dispatch has been received by Reuters from Constantinople by way of Sofia:
 The Russian ambassador, after re. ceipt of the news of che Turkish at. tack on Odessa, Immediately sought an interview with the grand vizier for the purpose of asking for his pass ports The ambassador was informed however, that the grand yizier was too i'll to be seen.
 Sir Louis Mallett, the British am, bassad0r, succeeded in seeing the grand vizier in the afternoon and the latter appeared greatly distressed over the Black sea incident, concern ing which he protested his innocence. It is understood that he expressed the hope that the triple entente would pause before taking an irremedial de- cision.
 The opinion is prevalent in political circles in Constantinople that an ad- justment might be reached through a complete apology by Turkey, payment of an indemnity, disarmament of the cruisers Goeben and Breslau and de. mobilization of the Turkish army In diplomatic quarters the opinion is eX- pressed that such a settlement would be sure to be rejected by Turkish Chauvinists. War is regarded as in- evitable.
 "A striking evidence of the extent to which Germany is backing Turkey was afforded by the receipt a few days ago by the Colstant1nOp.e branch of the Deutsch bank of one million pounds sterling gold.
 Further supplies are expected shortly"

Bitter Against English.

London, Nov. 3.-2 a. m-Tele. graphing from Calais, under date of Sunday the correspondent of the Daily Mail says:
 The British army has endured an historic ordeal in checking the Ger. man attempt to advance on Calais. The German offensive has crumbled but the empire should know that the victory at Ypres has been purchased at price as high as any previously recorded in British battle history
 The cream of our army suffered and the gaps must be quickly filled, if the German repuse is to be turned to good account. Every time we ad- vance the Germans seek to sacken their fire on our allies and concen trate their artillery oa the British troops. It is believed the British had a million Germans opposed to them in the Ypres fighting"

Entente Ambassadors Leave.

London, Nov. 2.-S:47 D. m.-A dis. patch receiyde here from Bordeaux by me Central News says.
 The French government has issued a statement saying that the Turkish government, in reply to a note of the triple entente powers, confined itself to proposing the recall of Turkish warships to the Dardanelles, and ex- pressed a desire to remain at peace with Russia, France and Great Brit ain. But in default of the dismissal of German officers in the Ottoman service the governments of the triple entente could not hope Turkey would be able to maintain the passive atti- tude which she offered to adopt.
 The Ottoman government. not hay ing thought it it's duty to give, by dsmissin gthe German officers. the mark of sincerity to it's intentions which was requested. the ambassa dors of France, Russia and Great Britain, in conformity with the in structions of their governments, de handed their passports from the grand vizier and left Turkey
 From the impressions received from northern Africa it appears that the Musselman world intends in no degree to throw in it's lot with the Turks

 All German attempts to break through the line of the allied forces between Newport and Dixmude have failed In spite of the hard fighting the Germans have not succeeded in gaining ground on the other bank of the canal.

ENGLISH SOLDIER DECORATED
Commander congratulates Him Fo Taking Command Of Battery and Siiencing the Enemy-British Take Many German Prisoners.

Paris, Nov. 2.-ll:41 D. m.-The battle proceeds, but less fiercely. amid the picturesque windmius of a small portion of Belgium near the coast, which is still uncoaquered by the Germans. Night after night, day after day, attacks and counter at tacks are being delivered and met with a hardy bravery on both sides.
 All the great sacrifices made by the German troops have proved futile, still the invaders continued despite the fact that they are en countering resistance which more than equals their hardihood. When. ever the allies give way at any point in the field, they have recaptured the lost territory quickly; wherever they advance they maintain their position
 The allies have occupied the village of Passchendaele, 1 miles northeast of Ypres, after terrific fighting as a result of which the Germans were forced to quit their trenches by the British, who took many prisoners, ac- cording to officers arriving from the front.
 Around La Basse the engagement continues serious but the allies have not ceased advancing surely though slowly Fierce fighting is progress. ing in the neighborhoOd of Lens ana Arras. The allies in the vicinity of Le Quesnoy En- -Salerre are strongly entrenched and have successfully beaten off the efforts of the Germans to make a breach in their lines. little further south many isolated combats have occurred in waich neither army scored much success.
 Sergeant Godson, the well known football player has been decorated on the field of battle with the em- bem of the legion of honor as the re ward for taking command of seyeraI batteries of artillery, after all the other officers were killed or wounded, and silencing a German battery The commander congratulated him before the entire army
 Virtually every height of impor- tance in the Vosges is now in the hands of the allies after fierce en- agreements. h Lorraine not far from Nancy the battle goes on in the forests and across the canals and rivers from which the allies have sut', ceeded in pushing the Germans and entering German Lorraine.

MAY BE ORDERED LATER
President and Cabinet Discuss the Request at Length-Roting Has Progressed Beyond the Control of the Court and U. s. MarshaIs.

Washington, D. C., Nov. 2.-Presi- dent Wilson, Attorney General Greg ory and Secretary Garrison of the war department, discussed, at long conference at the White house to- night, the advisability of sending fed eral troops to the strike zones of Hartford Valley, Arkansas, to assist Frank A. Youmans. United States district judge, in enforcing the orders of his court
 No decision was reached, the an nouncement being made that no troops would be ordered out tonight at least It was stated, however, that the request of the federal judge was under consideration and the matter would be he'd in abeyance at least until tomorrow, pending advices from him as to the inability of his marshals to cope with the situation. Bloodshed and rioting and an almost uncomfortable situation were pictur- ed to officials here in dispatches from the strike regions.
 This is the first request of the kind that has come to the federal government from a court in many years. but it is fully covered by fed eral statutes giving the department of justice power to cal on the military branch of the government for as sistance in enforcing the Iaws of the United States.
 Judge Youmans, according to the reports reaching officials here, has been unable to rely on some of his deputy marshals to preserve order. He could make no appeal to the state authorities as following recent labor troubles, the mine properties were placed in the hands of a receiver in the federal court of the western dis trict of Arkansas over which Judge Youmans presided.
 The blood of several deputy mar shals has been shed in the past few weeks in attempts Co confina men be- lieved to be responsible, being met by forcibie and successful attempts of friends to release the prisoners. Should the president act on the recommendation of the federal judge a proclamation would be issued warning all citizens in the affected districts to give up their arms and obey the law Secretary Garrison declined to say tonight whether or not any orders would be issued to- morrow for federal troops awaiting word from the white house Troops Logan H. Roots, Arkansas, if ordered.

Berlin, via The Hague to London, Nov. 2.-7:05 D. m-The fighting on the northwestern flank is now of a particularly savage character. A con siderable proportion of the wounded suffer from bayonet thrusts, which often pass completely through the body
 The Germans along wide stretches of the battle front in northern France have removed the civilian population thereby stopping the eIemys main sources of information. The hostile army, therefore is now working to lessen this.

AMBASSADORS HAVE LEFT
Fighting is Already Reported in the Caucasus But That Department Of Russia Appears to Be Loyal to the Mother Country.

Washington, Nov. 2. - Turkeys apology "for recent events in the Black sea- through the grand vizer, announced at London, was a sequel to events which Ambassador Morgen- thau reported today in confidential cipher messages to the state depart ment.
 It was accepted here as clearly the purpose of the part of the couserva- tive members of the ottoman cabi- net to avert war with the triple en. tente.
 MT. Morsenthau cabled under date of D. m. Saturday that shortly after the Russian ambassador demanded his passports the Turkish minister Of agriculture called on a certain neu- tral diplomat and asked him to go to the Russian envoy to ascertain if an apology by Turkey for the lombard ment of Russian ports in the Slack sea would he accepted and would pacify Russia. The neutral diplomat saw the Russian ambassador, who said that his instructions to leave ConstantinOple were absolute but that when all German sailors, soldiers and officers were dismissed summarily from the Turkish army and navy ano when he had been advised of their departure from Turkey he would re. turn and resume diplomatic relations with the Ottoman empire.
 The Russian, French and British ambassadors left on a special train at : D. m Saturday arranged through the efforts of the American ambassa dors.
 Although details of the Turkish apology received from London mad not reached here, officials and diplo, mats conversant with the situation did not believe the triple entente would be satisfied with the written apology unless it was accompanied by the dismissal of the German off cers and sailors and perhaps by the dismaatling of the Goeben and Bres lau former German cruisers now menacing the commerce of the allies in the Black sea. The transfer of these vessels to Turkey has never been explained to the satisfaction Of the entente
 The efforts of the ministers in the Turkish cabinet to avert a war are in line with previous Indications that the Ottoman government was seriously split on the issue of war on neutral ity. The ministers of finance, inte, rior and agriculture are endeavoTing to keep Turkey at peace with the en- tente but the ministers of war and navy are said to have been strongly in favor of striking for Germany.
 The American ambassador is mak- ing arrangements for panicstricken Americans to leave Turkey by special train to Greece. The Italian ambas- sador is trying to secure safe conduct for Russian subjects, who also are anxious to leave the Ottoman empire.
 The entry of Turkey into war was viewed here with some concern on ac count of the possibilities of anti Christian uprising and danger to the American missionaries.
 That Great Britain was prepared for an attack in Egypt was indicated in a dispatch from American diplo* matte agents at Cairo. dated today. The British charge d'affaires there in- formed the American consul general that martial law has been proclaimed throughout Egypt.
