It appears that the entrance to the

TURKEY CITES ALLIED
PLANS TO DIVIDE RICH
EMPIRE OF THE OTTOMAN

BERLIN, Germany.-A summary OF
the note handed by the Turkish gov.
eminent to neutrals in relation to the
Entente answer to the peace proposals
of the Central Powers was given out
by the Overseas News Agency as fol-
lows:
This note points out that the Cen
trail Powers, especially Turkey. not
desiring Entente TERRITORY; had no
reason whatever to begin the war.
The Entente, however. as a matter of
common knowledge the note con-
tinues. "coyets territory OF the Cen.
trail powers. Thus, it continues,
France wishes Syria and Alsace-Lor-
raine; Italy desires southwestern Aus
trian privileges; Russia wants Con-
stantinople and the straits and large
part Of Anatolia, and England wants
Mesopotamia and Arabia.
Equally known the note adds, are
the intrigues Of the Entente conducted
in an effort to hamper Turkeys evo-
luton and realize the plan for the
partition of Turkey. In spite OF the
principle of nationalities, which, as a
matter OF fact, is a subject of indif-
ference to the Entente immediately its
own interests are at stake. The pro-
Clamation CT a British protectorate
over Egypt. where the population Is
alien to the English race: the annexa-
tion of Cyprus, where there were no
English: the occupation OF Tripoli by
the Italians where the Italians were
simply intruders: the visionary dream
to give Russia Constantinople and the
Marmcra basin, where an overwhelm-
ing majority Of the population is Turk.
ish and Mohanmedan-,all of these
are pointed to as violations of the
principle of nationality. -. -...r
Turkey, says the note, thus was
obliged to take up arms for the de-
Tense of territorial integrity, liberty
and independence and she now is per-
suaded that this object has been at
tanned the hostile Powers being at this
time as far from the realization Of
their plans as ever. For this very
reason. It concluded. they neryously
decline the sincere proposition of the
central Powers and deliberately take
upon themselves the responsibility for
the continuation Of bioodshed." ~.

BRITISH OWNERS
WIN AppAM SUIT
Germany Loses Steamer Taken
Across Atlantic With
Prize Crew
tAssociated Press BY Federal wireless)

Associated Press by Federal Nlreiess9
WASHINGTON, ID. c., March g.
UNFOLDING United States District
Judge Edmund Waddill of Norfolk
Va, the supreme court of the United
States today declared that British In
terests are the rightful owners of the
prize ship Appam. and Britain thus
wins out as against Germany In.
noted matter Of war and litigation.
The British steamer Appam was
sailed into Norfolk on February /
1916, having been captured by Ger.
man raiding cruiser off the Canary
Islands and taken across the Atlantic
BY German prize-crew.
The British owners brought suit
claiming that Germany had no valid
claim to the vessel after It waS
brought to a neutral port. Judge Wad.
dill held that Germany lost the legal
claim to the ship when Lieut.. Berg,
the German naval officer who com
manded the prizecrew, brought the
vessel into neutral waters with the In
tention of laying up" indefinitely. The
decision also held that the Prussian-
American treatyaof 1923, cited by Ger
many to prove valid claim, does not
apply as guaranteeing a prize-crew,
and that q prize ship can not legally
be brought to neutral waters uncon-
yoyed.
Following the decision in the lower
court. the case was taken to the SUI
preme tribunal.

CHINA'SCABINET
SPLIISAT BREAK
With GERMANY
Premier Resigns When Presi-
dent Questions ACCESSIBILITY
of Severing Relations
(special Csble to Nippu lbil

TOXIC, Japan, Mar. 6!-China at the
eleventh hour has baked at seyering
relations with Germany! Tuan. Chi
Jul has resigned as prcmier Of the
Chinese cabinet, and IL is expected
that the other members will follow
the lead of the premier. These are
the new developments from Picking.
Tuan Chi-Jui after a discussion re.
garding the proposal to sever relations
with Germany resigned as head Of the
socalled responsible cabinet" Ii
Yuan-Hung, president of the Chinese
republic, has intimated that he would
accept Tuan's resignation and appoint
a new premier who would be more &C.
ceptabIe to him. .@ 49,.
The change of China's attitude to-
ward the kaiser's government was
wholly unexpected here inasmueh as
previous reports from Peking freely
indicated that the severance Of diplo-
matte relations between China and
Germany was Forthcoming. Inc lead.
ers in Japan's diplomatic circles are
apparently worried and have ex-
pressed surprise at the action of Pc
king.
tremier Tuan after accepting from
the French minister, Conte, the pro.
posal Of the allied countries to recog-
nize the new schedule as adopted by
the Chinese government to increase
the duty on foreign goods imported
called in person UPON President Ii for
the approval OF the decision to sever
relations with Germany a' :.
Ii refused to break With the Ger
man government and warned the pre-
mier that severing of relations with
Germany would not help the interests
Of China and urged the head of the
cabinet not to take any hostile action
toward Berlin. l. ..s
Tuan resented this and after fierce
discussion Tuan handed in his resig-
nation as the head OF the responsible
cabinet and left Picking for Tientsin.
Late dispatches from Picking quote
President Ii as saying that he is
ready to accept Tuan's resignation in
order to appoint a man who would be
more agreeable to him in handling
China's international situations. In
that case the entire cabinet will hand
in their designations in sympathy with
their premier.

OPEN HEARING ON

Opinion Prevails That Measure
win Pass But That Chance
Should Be Given Both Sides
for Expressions

Decision to refer Senate Bill 10, re.
lating to the abatement OF CONNER.
cIalized vice by Injunction, to com
mittee Of the whole for public hearing
was made today by the public health
committee and reported through
Chairman George y. Cooke.
Feeling is strong throughout the
senate that the bill proposed will pass,
probably by unanimous vote though
some members want to hear the ques-
ton discussed from two sides.
One senator today excused himself
from not having attended the mass
meeting on Sunday night because he
believed II would be too one-sided."
For that reason he believes public
hearing is only proper Both sides
may come equally to present their
claims.
