TURKEY BREAKS

ConstantinopIe and Berlin Are

Washington Officials Declare That d.

Treaty With Roumania Prob
ably Caused Rupture.

London July 3O-"According to di
rect information from Constantinople
the relations between Germany and
Turkey have been severed"
This announcement is made by the
Copenhagen correspondent of the Elk
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
former German cruiser which was de-
stroyed in the Dardanelles while un-
der the Turkish flag. Despite Tur-
keys protest the Hamidieh has de-
parted for Sebastopol with the Ger
man flag flying.
Washington, July 31.-While no Off
cial notice of the breach of relations
between Turkey and Germany-or
rather the Teuton powers, for without
doubt Austria is involved with Ger
many in the dispute with the Ottoman
government-has reached Washington,
officials expressed little surprise at
the dispatch saying Germany and Tur-
key had severed relations. In Off
that in her efforts to serve Turkey and
Bulgaria in the division of spoils re-
sult1ng from the enforced treaty with
Roumania, Germany had incurred the
ill-will of both her allies.
Following the conclusion of the
peace treaty with Roumania at Jassy.
both Turkey and Bulgaria laid claim
to much of the territory Roumania
mad been forced to cede to her enc
mics. Included in these claims was
title to the railway running from
Adrianople to Deadeagatch and this
became the source of the greatest con-
tention between the two allied ma
tions.
Germany Accused of Favoritism.
Germany for some time endeavored
to induce the two countries to settle
this dispute amicably by suggesting
the nation which failed to obtain the
railway should receive other compen-
sation. lass
Belief in Turkey that favoritism was
being shown Bulgaria by Germany in
the negotiations, according to recent
dispatches received here, caused
rapid growth of anti-German feeling
In Constantinople. A shortage of food.
