The situation between the British
ANA the Turkish Nationalsts was cx-
tremoly tense tonight.
A note from Musta pha Renal PaSha
10 Brig. Con. harrington. the British
commander, couchcd in hostile terms.
demands the retirement Of all the Rrlt-
ish troops from the ASiatic side Of the
straits and SAYS in case Of acquieS-
cncc he will withdraw tho Nationalist
forces slightly from the neutral
zone.
1t also demands the cessation of
what arc termed the arbitrary meas
ures Of the British authorities in Con
stantinople in dealing with tho Turk
ish population and a solemn undertake
ing that no Greek vessel shall be pcr-
mitted to pass the Dardancll"s. It
concludes with protest against the
destruction Of Turkish war material
in the straits.
1t is fclt in British circles tonight
that they would be forced to modify
their conciliatorY attitude at the mo-
mont the Turks bring up heavy artil-
lery with which they would be able to
SERIOUSLY threaten tho European side
Of the Dardanellos and also hamped
passage through the straits of British
vessels.
six submarines OF the British At
lantic feet have arrived and will be
used to prevent the transport Of Turk
ish troops across the Sea Of Marmora
in the event Of war between the Brit
sh and Turks. The British also have
posted batteries in strategic positions
on the Asatic side Of the Bosphorus
a short distance from Constantinople
The belief prevails in British mill
tary circles that Greece may be asked
to evacuate Thracc by October 10.
This woul. permit the kemalists 70
enter Thrace by ports Of the Sea Of
Marmora. avoid violation of the
straits and satisfy the Kemalist de-
1oand for possession Of Thrace before
the proposed peace conference begins.
1t is held that the Greek revolution
has radically altered the Thra ccan sit
uation and that there is no certainty
the new Athens government will be
able to maintain an efficient army
there. even pending the settlement Of
peace. 1t is suggested that if Greece
refuses to evacuate Thrace an Allied
feet may b7ocNede the Green main
land.
1t is feared that only a radical mod
ifcation of Kemal's bellicose attitude
can avert a clash between the British
and the Turks. If Kemal persists in
his demand for the evacuation Of the
Asiatic side of the straits, it is be-
lieved the British in no circumstances
will alter their firmly expressed re-
solve to preserve the inviolability Of
the international waterway.

the European side of the Gallipoli
peninsula.
1t is expected that the meeting
between Franklin Bouillon and kem-
al will make the actual situation
clearer. The situation, as revealed
here today following an important
cabinet meeting, appeared to be that
the British government had arrived
at the end of its patience.
What is said to have been virtually
an ultimatum demanding that the
Turkish troops quit the Chanak zone,
has been sent to Mustapha Renal
PaSha, and after the cabinet meet
ing, it was said that Brigadier Cen
eral Harrington had been informed
that he would have the full support
Of the government in taking whatever
steps he considered advisable to
bring the Turkish occupation Of the
forbidden zone to an end, and thus
terminate the grave situation, which
was considered nothing less than
Turkish defiance to the British EN-
pire and in direct contravention Of
the terms of the Allied note. The
British governments view regarding
broken, the whole of it becomes in
effective.
1t was added that the British gov
eminent no longer will be satisfied
with Kemals promise that his troops
Will advance no further but will e.
quire the actual withdrawal Of the
Nationalist forces.
According to the official view here
at the coming meeting between Gen
eral Harrington and Renal, nothing
will be discussed but actual military
matters; that 1T is intended to clear
mp any misunderstanding arising
from the Kemalst charges of ag-
erosion. IT will be contended that
the British operations are necessary
and iustifable. but not hostile.
There have been reports today that
the Turks might be allowed to cross
into Thrace in return for the evacua-
ton by the kemalists of the whole
of the neutral zones. These reports
met with little crcdcnce in London.
but according to the A. j. CORE
spondcnt in COnstantinOple. there is
talk there of the Greeks being asked
to evacuate eastern Tharce -hy Octo-
Der 10. thus permitting the Turks %
enter the region by way of ports on
the sea of MarmOro. The view in
official circles here tonight was that
as the Sea of Marmora has been de-
clarcd neutral, the Greek feet can
operate there and effectively prevent
the Turks from crossing.
Malta dispatches received in Lon
don report that the British fleet in
the Dardanclles, and the British
army at Chanak. are being constant

converted into a subsidiary base for

Production of bituminous fuel has
totaled we'll over 1905 600 cars weekly
since the week ended August &c.
Anthracite production began Sept
II, according to the railroad reports.
On that day production amounted to
9aS cars. The following day 1883 cars
were frcightcd. The production on
successive days was as follows: Sept
10, 325S cars; Sept. IA, 4024 cars; Sept.

According to the railroad reports Of
loadings. production of both bitumi-
nous and anthracite is going ahead at
a rate which is practically normal. To
Catch up with the demand, however,
production must be much greater than
normal for several months. it is cX-
planned. Unless fuel of both varieties
can be mined and transported faster
than at present, prices of fuel are like
~ to remain high throughout the win
ter, according to expert observation.

POTATO NOTES

Potatoes at Houlton are selling for
s110 per barrel with very few being
laulcd in. The chief question with
farmers these days is the problem
of getting their tubcrs housed before
the singing cold weather comes
There has already been several heavy
frosts and water has frozen in dishes
left outside. The ground will no
doubt freeze before long which will
make digging and the picking Of po-
tatocs pretty disasreeable. A week
of good weather at this time OF the
year means much for Aroostook
county and three weeks is needed
to get the bulk of the crop harvested
and in cellars.
