OREGON CITT, Or.. Nov. 3. (Spe

for the outbreak of epidemic of. diph

be placed on the shoulders of certain

Representatives Try tov Ar

WASHINGTON. Nov. 3. Until defi
nite guarantees are . given by Russia.
Great Britain and France for the pro
tection of the Turkish subjects, the
Ottoman Empire will hold practically
hostages all. the subjects of the
Triple Entente within its territory.
This was revealed in a cablegram
from American Ambassador Morgen
thau to the . State Department here
from Constantinople dated Sunday.
Assurances already had been given by
the British Ambassador that Turks in
Egypt as well as in the British Empire
generally would be permitted to leave
if they desired. The dispatch indi
cated, however, that the American Am
bassador. who is co-operating with the
Italian Ambassador in charge of the
Russian interests, is confronted with
a delicate task.
A special train, which was to have
left Sunday night with panic-stricken
British and French subjects, was de
tained by order of the Turkish Minister
of War. Mr. Morgenthau said he hoped
to persuade the War Office to release
the train on Monday.
From Persia the American Govern
ment was informed also today of the
spread of the war s influence. Persia,
dominated by Russia and Great Britain,
has shown through popular outbursts
its antipathy toward German subjects,
a dispatch from American Minister
Caldwell .at Teheran telling of an as
sault on the German consulate at
Tabriz by Russians. The Consul, along
with other German subjects, was pro
vided with temporary refuge by Amer
lean Consul Paddock, who" is endeavor
ing to obtain safe conduct for them out
of the country.
The Russians in Persia are threat
ening to arrest all Germans and expel
them.
That feeling against the Turks is
similarly running high is indicated to
some extent by the fact that the Per
sian authorities gathered up the ar
chives of the Turkish Consulate at
Tabriz and sent them to Petrograd.

NORTH SEAJSJIOT CLOSED
British Merely Decline Responsi
bility, Thinks Washington.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 3 As interpret
ed at the State Department the notice
received from the British government
that the North Sea has become a field
of military operations does not mean
that American and other neutral ships
are forbidden to enter these waters. It
is viewed simply as a warning that
ships entering the North Sea do so at
their peril.
The offer to provide pilots and sail
ing directions for such neutral vessels
as care to make the passage ' through
the British channel is not regarded as
a mandate, but rather as a convenience
exten'ded to neutral shipping to facili
tate their voyages.
The British government has promised
I to supply the State Department with a
full report on the conditions under
which the Red Star liner Kroonland is
detained at Gibraltar.
