SECURED TURKS
Enver Pasha Held Responsible
for Throwing Turkey Upon
Kaiser's Side.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. 23.--Tur-
key entered the war on Germany's side
after the cabinet had decided to join
the allies, according to statements be-
fore secret parliamentary committee
published by the newspapers. The
Enver Pasha, war minister, in 1914, were
responsible for the change of front.
When the war broke out, the newspa-
pers say, the majority of the Turkish
cabinet was friendly to the entente. The
war party, however, began attempts to
listers that Turkey should acquire the
German cruiser. Goeben to take the
place of Turkish ships which had been
requisitioned by England. Objection
was made that the Goeben, which ar
rived here in August, 1914. after fleeing
from allied ships In the Mediterranean,
would attack Russian vessels while un-
der Turkish cQlors, but Enver Pasha de-
clared the commander of the cruiser had
pledged himself not to make any such
attack. In reply to this assurance, Dja-
vid Bey, then finance minister, re-
marked that the admiral would be
more likely to stand by his word than
the German war lord1
Decision was reached by the cabinet
to oppose Germany in the. war, and 1t
was agreed that when Turkey took her
stand on the side of the entente the
Goeben and her sister ship, the Bres-
lau, should be bombarded by the Bos-
porus forts. Enver Pasha, however,
made secret arrangements with the
Germans and the Goeben Joined the
Black sea fleet, even the grand vizier
being kept in ignorance of this move.
On Aug. 90, 1914, the Goeben, while
flying the Turkish flag. attacked and
destroyed two Russian ships. This act
brought about Turkeys alignment
against the entente, and several mem
bers of the cabinet resigned. The facts
were misrepresented by the censors
and the Turkish public, even the sultan
believed for some time that the Rus
slams attacked the Turks.

where pursuit is impracticable. The

NEW minister OF
FRANCE MAY QUIT
AFTER SOLON RIOT

PARIS, Jan. 23.-Premier Millerand
and members Of his cabinet are today
considering the attitude of the chamber
Of deputies, which, although Il has
voted confidence in the government, has
shown certain degree Of GOODNESS to
the new regime. There Is no indication
the cabinet will resign as a result Of
yesterdays turbulent session in the
chamber, but there are many who be-
lieve Jules Steeg, minister OF interior,
about whom the storm centered, may
surrender his portfolio rather than EN-
barrass the premier in the opening days
of his administration.
M. Millerand's victory upon demand
ing a vote Of confidence, while II showed
a majority of 249, was considered really
to be defeat as more than 800 mem
bers of the chamber refused to parttci-
pate in the balloting. Parliamentary
\ tradition looks upon a refusal to vote
on a question of confidence as ballot
against the government.
Objection to NJ Steeg as a member
of the ministry was voiced by Deputy
Leon Daudet, who declared the new
minister of the interior was IAN ac-
complete" of Louis ]. Malvy, banished
after conviction of having carried on
dealings with the enemy. He announced
he would interpellate the government
on this point. His attack caused great
disorder in the chamber and for a time
il seemed the Millerand cabinet would
be forced out of office.
