Arabia.
Equally known, the note adds, are
the intrigues of the entente conducted
in an effort to hamper Turkeys cvolu
tion and realize the plan for the parti
ton Of Turkey. in spite of the princi
pies of nationalities, which also as n
matter of fact is subject of indiffer-
cnce to the entente Immediately its
own interests are at stake. The procla
nation of a British protectoratc over
Egypt, where the population is alien to
the English race; the annexation Of
Cyprus, where there were no English
the occupation of Tripoi by the ltal-
ians, where the italians were simply
intruders; the visionary dream to give
to Russia Constantinople and the Mar

pointed to as violations Of the prin
ciple Of nationality.
Turkey, says the note, thus was
obliged t. take up arms for the defense
Of territorial integrity, liberty and n
dependence, and she IS now persuaded
that this object has been attained, the
hostile powers being at this time as fal
from the realization OF their plans
as ever. For this very reason the,

internal dissentions any belllgerent

Private advices today from

hint that one solution may be the

The appointment would be with

vast amount OF other reports OF dis

one may be that Germany is aotu-
ally sorely tried The other is that
she Is playing a.. deep TeutonIc
game-the idea being 10 lull Amer
