BONAR LAW MAY
RESIGN, HEWARNS
Colonial Secretary Won't
Stay if Unionists Show
Further Revolt.

London. Dec. 14.--Andrew Bonar Law,
Secretary for the Colonies, told Sir Ed
ward Carson and few Unionist DIS
senters. in an outspoken warning in the
House Of Commons this evening, that
further signs of revolt would lead to
his retirement from the government
Mr.. Bonar Law was opposing mo
ton. backed by the dissldent UnionisI,SS'
for the rejection of the Par Lament plil'
introduced on Thursday last by alr
John Simon, Secretary Tor Home al =
fairs, providing for the continuation OF
the present Parliament beyond the hve-
wear period and the postponement OF d
general election during the war ms l,I
would keep alive the plural voting olII'
The Directing faction took exception
to the prolongation of the NE OF the
plural voting bill and urged the deslra-
bility of a general election. Mr.. bonar
Law. after stating that the present com
promise bill was his own proposal
dealt with the Unionist criticism OF the
government. .., >,

that they honestly think the war is not

out a change Of government It would be
better for them to 90 openly into oppo-
sition and move vote Of no confidence.
We Unionists are members Of the gov

party. and il thought that in this po-
sition we had lost the confidence OF our
party would not dream for a moment
of continuing in the government
Premier Asquith also participated IN
the debate. He declared that a general
election at the present time would be
rational calamity. but, he added, the
government was not inflexibly welded
to the precise period Of postponement

TURKS HALTED
ON THE TIGRIS
London Calls Reports of
British Losses Greatly
Exaggerated.
SULTAN NOW HAS
$4,000 IN ARMS
Tenant Tells Commons That
MOslem Forces Can Be In
creased to 100000.

London, Dec. 14.-Replying 70 CUES
tion In the House OF Commons to-day,
Harold J. Tenant, Parliamentary I'm
der-Secretary for War, said that it was
calculated Turkey had $4,000 men IN
the field, and that this force, under
certain circumstances. might be in
creased TO a million.
There has been more lighting on the
Gallipoli Peninsula. The Turks here
claim to have repulsed an attack against
their left wing at Sedd-ul Bahr. The
Turkish official accounts say nothing
new has occurred at Kut-el-Amara,
where the Turks are operating against
the British, who retired from the Bag
dad region. This is taken In military
circles here as an admission by the
Turks that their attacks on the British
position on the Tigris River have failed.
The previous reports Of the losses
the Turks inflicted on the British when
the latter retired down the river are
declared in private information reach
ing London 70 have been exaggerated.
For example, the three vessels which
they captured turn out to have been a
tugboat and two barges.
TURKISH OFFICIAL.
The following official communication
was Issued at Constantinople to-day:
On the Dardanelles front an enemy
armored cruiser. assisted by an OBJ
servation balloon, bombarded our po-
sitions near Anafarta. Our artillery
replied, successfully bombarding the
enemy trenches and batteries. Near
Arr Burnu there have been severe
bombings and artillery combats.
Near Sedd-ul Bahr on Saturday
night the enemy fired a large num-
Der Of shells against our left wing.
On Sunday, after firing for hours
bombs and aerial torpedoes against
the same wing, the enemy attempted
an attack, which completely col
lapsed under the fire of our artillery.
The enemy WAS forced 10 retreat to
his own trenches with great losses.

Even at the State Department N
Washington a large force OF clerks IS
kept busy with the routine correspond
ence concerning such matters. which
often amounts to several hundred let-
ters and kilograms daily.
Practically every British port, for
example, is a prison camp, and at each
one of these is stationed one or more
American consular officers whose sole
duty IL is 20 protect the interests Of
German and Austrian prisoners and
make reports on conditions 10 be for
warded 20 Berlin or Vienna. The same
is true of France, Russia. Japan,
Serbia and the colonies Of nearly all
the Allied nations. Particularly n
Egypt, Australia. Canada and India are
American officers detailed in great
numbers to look out for the interests
Of enemy subjects. Reciprocally. there
are many American consuls in Ger
many and Austria whose whole time IS
given up TO protecting the interests
of the Allies.
Break Would Stop Work.
With the breaking or of relations
with the Central overs all this work
would cease. and il would be necessary
TO find another neutral Iower to carry
10 on. Spain is the only European ma
tion not in the war that has sufficient
representation in the belligerent coun-
tries to undertake so stupendous n
task, and the work would undoubtedly
fall upon her. But the American or
ganization Is the prodIct OF more than
year of slow building, and it would
be practically impossible for Spain 10
take up the work where the United
States left off without an enormous
loss in efficiency
The United States is paying all the
expenses Of the work az present. ex-
cept for the relief funds. privately sub
scribed, that are sent TO American
agents 70 distribute in the form Of food
and other neceSsaries to prisoners.
After the war, however. IL IA expected
that the interested nations will reim-
burse this government.
The State Department records show
that German and Austrian interests
are being cared for in the following
countries:
Great Britain. including India. Can
ada, Australia and other colonies.
France. including Morocco and Algiers
Russia, Japan, Serbia.
The. United States also represents
French, British, Italian and Japanese
interests IN Austria Hungary. and Brit
