Turkey to Handle
Caucasus Problem
Despite Treaties
Porte Declared Terms of
Agreement Made by
Huns Are Unful6lled

AMSTERDAM, July 3o.-Turkey is
going to handle the situation in the
Caucasus according to her own ideas.
This is indicated in telegram from
Constantinople, dated July 90, which
quotes an article in the newspaper
"Nasfri Ekfiar," presenting the Tur-
kish viewpoint
we have nothing to say against
the principles laid down in the Brest
Lltovsk treaty." says the article, "but
when the Caucasus, newly ~reorganized.
turns toward us and, master of it's
own destlnies, refuses to be bound by
the treaty, what was more natural for
us than to take into consideration the
necessities of this new situation
created on our important eastern
front? Could we close our ears to
the appeal of the government of a
people largely Of the same race and
same creed as ourselves?
I'VE are aware of the action, and
its present progress. to place under
German control Tifs and Baku. That
is a logical consequence of the appli-
cation of the Brest-Litovsk treaty.
How could this treaty be taken into
consideration in the affairs of the eau
casus, seeing that the Bolshevik gov
ernment has not even been able to re-
turn to us. in accordance with the
treaty, our eastern frontier, and that,
in the Caucasus, influences entirely in
dependent Of the 3olsheyik govern
ment have arisen?"

WASHINGTON, July 30.-Capturc by
Czecho-Slovak forces of several cities
in the Caucasus and a Black Sea port,
where two Russian warships were
seized and steamer sunk, is reported
IN the Austrian semi official news
paper "Rcichspost," according to in
formation received to-day by the
Czecho-Slovak National Council here.
The warships' guns were turned
against the port of Novorossisk, where
they were seized, the newspaper said.
but no details as to the damage done
were given. Cities captured included
Stavropol, Sirjebriakov and Michelovka,
while 1t was said that the Czecho-
S!ovaks operating with Russian White
Guards had occupied Syzram.
While no additional information has
been received. officials of the council
said there is nothing improbable in the
newspaper account, as many Czecho-
Slovaks had been held prisoners by the
Russians in the Caucasus and South
ern Russia. They were inclined to ac-
cept the report as entirely authentic.

Protests against Allied Intervention

with unanimous consent of Russian

the parliamentary group of Socialists
toward the American Federation of

urkey Angered
By Failure of
German PLEDGES

WASHINGTON, July 3O.-No official
advices regarding the reported break
IN relations between Turkey and Ger
many have reached Washington, but the
government would not be surprised if
Turkey has been driven to an open
rupture. as there is we'll founded
ground for the report.
1t has been known for some months
that deep and growing feeling of dis
satisfaction has existed in Turkey over
the treatment by the Germans. Re-
ports that Turkish mission recently
had been trying in Switzerland to cul-
tivatc friendship with some of the AL

here. 1t would be natural, officials said

Macmillan Harden, however. pro-
tests in his newspaper, the "Zukunft,"
of July 27, against "this contortion" of
President Wilson's real meaning, and
particularly against the reply to it
which Count Won Hertling made in the
Reichstag. "Wilson." said the I'm
perial Chancellor. desires victory
until the enemy renounces these
plans"
Harden does not discover any sign
of such wish on President Wilson's
part. and writes:
"He only wishes to destroy, or at
least to deprive of all its harmful in
fluence. an arbitrary power capable of
secretly, and on its own initiative.
troubling the peace. He expressed
himself without ambiguity in his great
speech. He spoke of the German peo-
pie with the greatest respect. of the
German government with the most
these two principles which are like the
pillars Of his doctrine.
Nv hatever the issue of the war may
be the German people will not see any
restrictions imposed on its possibil-
tiles of existence, or the German En-
pire having to contest any of the
rights enjoyed by the peoples of the
new and the old world
Those who are attached to tradi-
tion are free to declare Wilson's
programme Utopian; those who see in
militarism a gift of Providence believe
the German Empires heritage must be
faithfully preserved for ever and ever.
But to discover desire for annihila-
tion is to get on the wrong track
Does this pious Count Hertling also
attribute such terrible thoughts to the
Pope?
1.-THE Pope's note of the first of
August, 1917, the projects of which
provoked motion in the Reichstag,
demands 4he evacuation of all the ter
ritories occupied in Belgium and
France and guarantees of the com
plete independence of Belgium from n
political. military and economical
point of view, and it demands that a
resolution be taken with q peace basis
to substitute in the future the moral
force of right for the material force
of arms. This is what the President
of the United States is asking in lay
language"
The dispatch states that Harden's
pro-German tendencies were "most
brutal" at the beginning of the war.

Austrian Premier
Gives Pledge of
Faith to Kaiser
"As in War So in Peace
Vienna Will Not Stand
Alone'

AMSTERDAM, July 3o.-"We are
ready to conclude an honorable peace
as soon as our opponents renounce
their hostile plans aiming at our de-
struction or repression" said Baron
Won Hussarek, Austrian Premier, in
presenting his cabinet to the Upper
House of the Austrian Parliament, az
cording to Vienna advices. He added
that, SO far as the Central Powers
were concerned, the war was de-
fensive one.
$50 long as our opponents take the
standpoint of one-sided dictation," he
continued, there is nothing for us
but to continue the war and carry it
on SO vigorously that it will be short
ened.
CAS- in war, so in peace, Austria will
not stand alone" he added. "Our al
nance with Germany is a real affair
OF the heart and will deepen under the
influence of peace. There is nothing
menaclng in this alliance, the war
like contents of which were forced
upon the Central Powers by their op-
ponents and will cease as soon as they
extend the hand of peace"
Baron Won Hussarek said the Dual
Monarchy could remain fully confident
on its army and alliances to obtain a
good and honorable peace.
In the course of the debate Count
Czernin, former Foreign Minister, said
that the Austrian Emperor's advance
to King Ferdinand of Rumania was
made under his full ministerial respon-
sibilty.
Count Czernin said he had learned
at the BrestLitovsk peace conference
that King Ferdinand was beginning to
comprehend the isolated and desperate
situation Of Rumania and that he
wished to enter into relations with
Emperor Charles. Count Czernin said
he informed DR.. Won Kuehlmann, at the
time German Foreign Secretary, of the
Kings wishes. AS a result, the count
said, Rumania escaped last desperate
combat and attained immediate peace.

that the Bolshevik government was
