TURKS ACTED
 WITH HIGH HAND Must Apologize To Italy for Taking British Official From Italian
 Consulate.

ROME, Dec. 14.-The Italian gov ernment has made a demand upon the Turkish Sultan for satisfaction because of the removal of British consul who had sought and obtain. ed shelter at an Italian consulate and was taken by force from the build ing. The incident happened at Ho- deida and the Italian consul gave shelter to the British diplomatic rep resentative and the police violated the rights of the government in talk ing the consul from the building.
 Following the demand for satisfac- tion the War and Navy departments became busy and orders for the con- centration of the fleet were given and the troops were denied any leave of absence. It is generally believed here that Germany will force the Sul- tan to apologize and also grant the safe conduct of the British consul, who is now prisoner.
