TURKEY AND ITALY

Mr. Norgenthau. held in readiness,
The Turkish Government subsequently
insisted that Italian ships be sent 10 Asia
Minor, whereupon the STEAMSHIPS Cagliari
and Tolemaide were despatched TO
kholes for that purpose.
Now that the Porte has arbitrarily re-
fused to allow the departure OF the
Italian citizens, a war between italy and
Turkey, which IT had been hoped was
ayerted, seems again inevitable,
Italy Is determined not to tolerate
Turkeys inexplicatle refusal, which ii Is
believed here was obviously instigatod by
Germany. Besides, Italy has secured
evidence that Turkish officers, arms and
ammunition and money have been sent
TO Trlpoli. wnere the holy war is being
openly preached.

formed that "A rupture OF the ltalo-Turk-

KOVNO LOSS HARD O
Critic Thinks Ii May Influence
Disposition Of British TroOps

"pe''"f tuo'c Despuch 20 HE Sun.
LONDON, Aug. 21.-Col. Rep!ngton, the
military critic of the Times, u that
the capture OF Kovno was complete. He
says that II Is a very disagreeable blow
and that nothing can be gained by
minimizing the importance OF the loss.
The main Russian armies, he says, are
undoubtedly menaced by the new position
gained by the Germans, although the
precise danger TO which these armies are
thus opened cannot now be defined.
These are signs he says. that the
Austro-German armies which directly
oppose the Russian armies have already
made inroads into the Russian line. and
the presence OF a part of Won Macken-
sens armies on the right bank OF the
Bug near Wlodawa is as unpleasant as
II is unexpected.
The river and marshes were expected
to prevent a movement of this kind. and
would have had the natural defences
been properly exploited. but IL the Rus
sian flank Is turned here and Blelostock
Itself IL threatened then it may prove
that the Grand Duke will not delay any
longer on the Brest-Litovsk line hut will
seek before all else a place where his
armies may rest in safety.
with the pursuing armies he may
do as he has done already, by fighting
Rallani'y and cleVerly with his rear
guards, but the H~indenburg menace in
the north Is now so serious that il must
weigh heavily upon the Russian resolu-
tion.
Events Of the mex ten days prom
ise to be decisive. 1t must be supposed
that our Cabinet il fully alive TO the
situation and has taken account OF the
things that may happen in the east in
the disposition OF our military forces"
