:: WITH GERMANY
WELL FOUNDED REPORT THAT.
OTTOMAN EMPIRE HAS
BROKEN WITH THE HUNS ~

LONDON.-"The relations between
! Germany and Turkey have been severed,
according to direct information from
Constantinople.' ..
This announcement is made by the
Copenhagen correspondent of the Ex-
change Telegraph company.
/ The excitement against Germany, the
advices further say, has been growing,
! particularly after last weeks events.
The Germans recently demanded
the cruiser Hamidieh, the only large
ship then in possession of Turkey, as
compensation for the Breslau, the for
mer German cruiser which was de-.
stroyed in the Dardanelles while under
the Turkish flag. Despite Turkeys
protest the Hamidieh has departed for
S%ebastopol with the German flag flying.
Announcement was made in the reich
stag on June 8 that differences had
arisen between Bulgaria and Turkey
over the division of lands taken from
Rumania under the peace agreement
with the central powers. The announce
ment was by DR.. Won Kuehlnann, the
German foreign secretary, who added
that the question was a difference of
opinion between two of Gerrnany's allies,
to whom Germany was bound by exactly
equal ties, and that everything must be
avoided which would cause the impress
sion to prevail abroad that Germany's
policy favored the claims of the one ally
at the expense of the other.
The Cologne Gazette early in June as
serted that the differences between Tur-
key and Bulgaria involved a certain
danger that the work of harmony
achieved by the central powers al
Bucharest may suffer" The newspaper
added that both Bulgaria and Turkey
were claiming Germany's full support
their respective interests. The North
German A%llgemein Zeitung, the semi
official organ, however, declared that the
over Dobrudja was n on
which Turkey and Bulgaria would have
come to an agreement and that Ger
many would only express herself re-
'ervedly on the matter if Germany was
10 to assume heavy responsibilities for
he future.
Announcement was made some time ,
go that Germany and Turkey were in
hot dispute yer the disposition of -.

FROM ACROSS THE SEA.

A young soldier in the lO1st Field Ar
tillery writes to his mother:
Things look as if they were fast COM
ing to a head, to Judge by the scraps of
men we get here. You can't beat the
British long, and when we get really
started there will be no holding US back.
We have got the freshness and enthusi-
asm that the others cannot have, and
that is what is going to win in the end,
lust as in athletics or anything else for
that matter.
Don't get worried over all the fool
stories that the German propaganda is
spreading at home regarding all the I'M
morality in our Army over here. 1t is
absolute rot, for so far as have seen,
there is less of it here than there was
back home. Spread this around, for the
men are getting mighty sick OF all the
unnecessary advice they get from the
people at home, and it is not right to have
them worry or be fooled by the aforesaid
propa ganda.
''Funny how after one has been over
here little while one loses all sense OF
sympathy for the Boche. Back in the
training camp, while I was in charge OF
the unloading and storing of commlssary
supplies, used to have fifty German pris-
oners for a gang, and felt really sorry Tor
them most of the time Well, that idea
is gone now, and wish the people with
humanitarian instincts could stay over
here with us little while and get wise
to themselves"
