BAD FEELINGS GROW

WASHINGTON, July 29-WbIle no official notice of the breach of rela- tions between Turkey and Germany or rather the central powers, for with out doubt Austria is involved with Germany in the dispute with the Ctto- man gQvernment-has reached Wash ingtOn officials expressed little sur prise tonight at the Copenhagen dis patch received from London saying Germany and Turkey had severed re- lations. In official circles here fo- some time past it has been realized that in her efforts to serve both Fur key and Bulgaria in the division Of spells resulting from the enforced treaty with Rumania, Germany had in- cured the ill-will of both her allies.
 Following the conclusion of the peace treaty with Rumania at Jassy. both Turkey and Bulgaria laid claim to much of the territory which Ru- mania has been forced to cede to her enemies. Included in these claims, was the title to the railway running from Adrianopole to Deadeagatche, and this became the source of the greatest cen tention between the two allied nations Germany for some time endeavored to induce the two countries to settle this dispute amicably by suggesting that the nation which failed to obtain the railway should receive other compen- sation.
 Belief in Turkey that favoritism was being shown Bulgaria by Germany in the negotiations according to recen; dispatches received here, caused a rapid growth of anti-German feeling in Constantinople. Shortage of food, weariness of the war, and dissatisfac- tion with the Young Turk party be- cause of its submission to German con trol recently found expression in Con- stantinople in food riots and munitions uprisings which have Seen sternly sup pressed by the military authorities.
 That Turkey has become more and more weary of the war was indicated in the failure of the latest Turkish loan in June. According to Swiss dIs- patches only 12,0OO.0O pounds was ob- tained out of 32.0OO,OOO pounds sought.
 However, there was considerable doubt in the minds of officials here whether severance of relations even if actually brought about, would be per manent. It is believed that Germany calling upon her allies, Bulgaria and Austria, to assist her, will undertake to deal sternly with Turkey, and through the thousands of German agents in that country will seek to dis place the Young Turk party and in stall some faction which can be de- pended upon to obey the mandates of the central powers.
 It was also pointed out that the Turkish army is officered almost en- tirely by Germans. and that while the Turkish diplomatic authorities might sever relations with Germany, the army would remain thoroughly Ger man. Also reports have been received that the Constantinople police system is permeated through greatly with German influence, making possible the continuation of the spread of German propaganda among Turkish people.
 If the Copenhagen report should prove true, the military situation may be favorably affected in the interest of the entente ahies. Bulgarian re- sistance, it was pointed out tonight, may be weakened greatly in conse- quence of the quarrel with Germany and accordingly an easy nOrthwarc movement from the Adriatic to the Aegean sea might be accomplished by the French, Italian and British troops,
