SHARP NOTE IS SENT
ACROSS TO THE Turks
State Department Demands
Explanation Tabriz Incident
WAR LOOMING NEARER
Failure of Response Is Liable
To Be Followed BY
HostiIities

Washington, June 26.-The United
States government has sent virtual
ultimatum to Turkey demanding an
immediate and satisfactory explana-
tion of the incident at TabriZ, Persia.
There is strong reason to believe
that failure on the part of Turkey
to give favorable response will be fol-
lowed by declaration of war on the
part of this nation.
The demand, the third sent to the
authorities in CGnstantinople since the
incident occurred, was forwarded by
Secretary of State Lansing through
the Swedish government
Sweden was bearer OF one of the
two previous communications, and
Spain of the other. OF neither of these
previous messages has the Ottoman
government paid the slightest atten-
ton.
This message" declared an official
of the department, referring to this
latest demand, means business"
The offense for which an expana.
ton is demanded is the action of
the Turks at Tabriz in sacking the
United States consulate there ana
looting the United States hospital.
The United States demands to know
whether the Turkish government
avows responsibility for the outrage
or whether it was the outcome Of ir-
responsible mobbing following the
capture of Tabriz by the Turks.
Officials in the State department de-
clined to state what time limit, ii
any, had been placed upon the demand
for an explanation by Turkey, but it
was plainly evident that the govern
ment> is not disposed to wait more
than few days.

ASSOCIATED PRESS SUMMARY

Now that the Piave line again is
intact, the Italians have begun oper.
ations on the mountain front, look
ing for the further improvement of
their positions there. On the north
western slopes of Monte Grape, be-
tween 5renta and the Piave rivers,
the italians gained considerable
ground and took over 1900 prisoners.
These italian attacks probably were
made to forestaH an enemy effort.
Strong raids were, made on Asiago
plateau. The italian gain on Grappa
is important as the mountain is the
key to the. position to the country
which dominates the hills southwark
to the Venetian plains.

ORIGIN OF WORD "R0ORBACK"
Name Given to First Notable Cam.
paign Lie, of Which James X.
Polk Was the Victim.

In 1874 James X. Polk was nomi,
mated by the Democrats for president.
After the nomination the Albany Jour,
nal published what purported to be
an extract from Roorback's Journal
Of a trip through the South, repre-
sented to have been made some few
years before, In which he told Of see
ing a gang of colored men being drlv.
en- to the southern market, all branded
y. X. p" as the property of James X.
Polk. The object was to stigmatize
Polk as q heartless slave owner. The
publication was resented by the Demo
Gratis as q forgery and a libel on their
candidate, and so 1t proved to be, for
1t turned out that there was no such
person as Roorback and that the pre-
tended letter was written by q dIsrep-
utable politician of New York who
posed as ar abolitionist. The incident
caused much hard feeling and the
word roorback became q synonym for
a campaign lie.
