Charpy received instructions from
Paris, where Lord Curzon had beer
in conference with Premier Poincare
and announced that France adhered tt
the terms proposed. Ismet Pasha
losing thus the support he may have
counted on, had no alternative but tt
yield, and this he did with good grace
The Greek representatives sent note
saying they could not sign the pro

it would be effective in three days
despite this refusal. Lets sign. said
Ismet, and the signatures were append

Later Greece decided to sign.
The terms of the Mudania conven-
ton are substantially as given in this
column a week ago. Greece~iS given
fifteen days to evacuate Thrace as far
west as the Martha river, handing over
the civil powers to the allied authOri-
ties, who will Immediately transfer
them to the Turkish authorities. Turk.
iSh gendarmerie in limited numbers
will control the territory for the time
being, with allied troops on guard to
prevent disorders, but within thirty
days after Greece gets out Thrace is
to be turned over wholly to the Turks.
New neutral zones in the Chanak and
Ismid areas, in the Constantinople pen
insula and in GallipOli are to be de-
fined by mixed commissions and are
to be respected by the Angora govern
ment.
1t is understood the peace confer
ence will open on November 1 in
Scutari, or possibly in some city in
Italy. 1t is probable that Bull
garia, Georgia and the Ukraine will
be invited to send representatives, but
not the Moscow government. Other
nations that are likely to have dele
gates, in addition to Great Britain,
France, Turkey and Italy, are Jugo-
Slavia, Rumania, Greece, Hungary,
Austria, Czechoslovakia and possibly
Poland.
HAVING avoided war with Turkey
i without losing dignity, and re-
tanning for the present the actual con-
troll OF the Dardanelles, the British
government seems once more sOlidly
entrenched, and the talk Of retiring
Prime Minister Lloyd George, which
broke out furiOuslysa few days ago, is
dying down. His opponents at home,
indeed, now have no fit man to sug-
gest as his successor, for BOnar Law,
upon whom they had counted, has re-
newed his fealty to the Welshman, as
has Lord Birkenhead. The Unionists
are said to have decided to stick by
the coalition and make it practically
a permanent party when the general
election comes, which probably will be
about Christmas. The premier, after
a week of retirement in the country,
made notable speech Saturday in
telling his opponents
what he thought of them and demand
ing the support of the country for his
policies.
d UCHAREST was en- fete Saturday,
ID when King Ferdinand and Queen
Marie were formally crowned as rulers
of the kingdom of Rumania which the
war enlarged by the addition of Bes-
sarabia and Pennsylvania. The cere-
monies were gorgeous and many other
nations were represented by princes
and high dignitaries. In view of the
fact that soviet Russia still threatens
Rumania, it is worthy of note that
France sent Marshal Foch and with
him General Weygand, who organized
Poland's successful opposition to the
two years ago.

"A certainly stirred up the animals
when he barred liquors not only from
all American vessels, but even from
all other ships while within the Ameri-
can three-mile limits. At first there
was a storm of comment punctuated
with excited predictions of what for
eign governments would do to us in
the way of retaliation and with pre-
dictions that all foreign steamship
lines would divert their ships to Can
adam ports, leaving New York, Bos-
ton, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seat
tie and our other coast cities to go to
wreck and ruin. With the subsistence
of the tempest these facts appear:
The British government says 1t has no
interest in the domestic legislation of
the United States, which it has per-
feet right to put into operation, and if
British subjects break United States
law they viii have to take the conse-
quences. The French government may
send a protest to Washington, but will I
wait to see how the decree is enforced
and how It affects French interests.
