Tha Neches case made necessary a de

WASHINGTON. Aug. I. Declaring
that official communications from the
Turkish government bad beeit dis
torted by British censors to give an
erroneous Impression of conditions in
th Ottoman JCmpire. the Turkish Em
bassy mada public the following state
ment tonight:
On tha JSth of April they (the allies)
landed in two places: Arl-Bournu and
Seddul Babr. The objective of the
first landing corps waa Maidos. at a
distance of eight kilometers and that
of tha second Krlthla. Now the allies
on the aide of Arl-Bournu have never
been able to proceed further than one
kilometer from the shore. And on the
other side they are being checked at
a distance -of kilometers from
Krlthla. .Their failure at Seddul-Bahr
Is so much tbe more striking, because
this place, being situated at the ex
tremity of the Galllpoll peninsula. Is,
from three sides, exposed to the con
verging fire of the allied warships."
Kqually Incorrect statements have
been Issued, the statement continues,
aa to victories for the allies on the
coast of Asia minor and Smyrna. "Not
a single allied soldier." It adds, "has
landed on tbe Asia Minor coast, and
tha only military operations consist In
having fired a few explosive shells
without any damage." Naval opera

centrated against the huts of Inoffen

boats."
In Mesapotsmia. the statement ssys,
the British advance has been held and
the Brltlah hope of winning over the
Arab tribes frustrated and the Araba
ara harassing the Invaders' communi
cations. "Tha Russian advance in the Cau
casus." the statement says, "has piti
fully collapsed." And an uprising
among Armenian peasants fomented by
tha Invaders suppressed "with much
celerity and with all possible modera

enemy "to represent the Ottoman gov

have professed to be ready to embrace
any plan for peace which Included as
Its first object the maintenance of the
territorial sovereignty of. Mexico, free
elections and restoration of the govern
ment to the constitutional line from
which It departed with the death of
President Madero and tho ascendancy of
Vlctorlano Huerta to a dictatorship.
Tha Thursday conference is the step
President Wilson and the Cabinet had
in mind when a few weeks ago a state
ment wss Issued to tha American peo
ple on the Mexican situation, and In
tended for the Information of the Mex
ican leadera themselves. This state
ment declared In forceful language that
the patience of the United States was
becoming exhausted with three years
of revolution and chaos, and that un
less the Mexican leaders themselves
found some way to accommodate their
differences, the United States, as Mex
ico's next friend snd neighbor, would
be constrained to decide what means
should be employed to restore peace.
Recent Developmeata Important.
When President Wilson went to the
Summer White House at Cornish. N. H,
It was expected nothing would be done
until his return. The recent almost
kaleidoscopic developments in Mexico
City, however, are believed to have in
fluenced the announcement of action at
this time.
The State Department was disturbed
today by reports that General Villa had
driven American and other foreign jnr
chants from Chihuahua, confiscated
thrlr property and executed alx of their
Mexican colleagues. American consular
agenta were called upon for Immediate
reports. Protests came from diplomatic
representatives of foreign powers. Col
villa Barclay, In charge at the British
Embassy In the absence of the Ambas
sador, called at the State Department
to protest against the reported eeisure
by Villa of property of British subjects
and their expulsion from the country.
After his visit Secretary Lansing con
ferred with Assistant Secretary Breck
enridgn. of tho War Department: and
Leon C. Canova. chief of tha division
of Mexican affairs. Dispatches - to
American consular officials were the
direct result.
VILLA EXECUTES MERCHANTS
Six Put to Death for Refusing to
Give Funds to Rebel Leader.
EL PASO. Tex., Aug. 2. The confis
cation of the property of merchanta do
ing business in Villa territory and the
execution of six of 42 Mexican mer
chants, imprisoned by the northern
leader after a conference at which un
successful efforts were made to raise
a forced loan, was reported today by
persons arriving here from Chihuahua
City, ""where the conference was held.
Durlnsr the conference , it was said
General Villa said: "The American
Government can go to hell If It does
not like my actions." Foreign mer
chants, it was said further, were then
ordered to leave the country and are
expected to reach Juares tonight under
escort of General Villa.
Villa Is quoted aa having charged the
merchants with exacting exorbitant
prices for their goods, and is said to
have given thia as his reason for the
confiscation order.
The Villa garrison at Guzman. 78
miles southwest of here, revolted to
day, according to Carranxa reports.
which are verified by railway officials.
The officials of the garrison were Im
prisoned. It was said. According to the
Carranza officials, the soldiers have de
clared their allegiance to the "first
chief." Railroad service to Guzman
has not been Interrupted.
Representatives of foreign mining
concerns operating In the State of Chi
huahua today received word rrom t-ni-huahua
City that a conference of min
ing company representatives, called for
today, at which Villa had announced
his intention to levy a forced loan of
1300.000. adjourned until August 9
when only a few mining men appeared
at tho meeting.

Now Have No Voice.
CONSTANTINOPLE. July . (Cor
respondence of the Associated Press.)
No business has been hit much hard
er In Constantinople than the news
paper business, and every monthly.
weekly and daily paper owned by
foreign Interests, with one' exception,
has gone under. Five still are pub
lished in some language other than
Turkish, hut four of the five are Turkish-owned.
The single exception to the disas
trous rule is the German Oesman
Ischer Lloyd, whicn flourishes despite
the fact that German as a language Is
much less known in Tancey than
French. The new alliance brought
about by the war is, of course, in
creasing the number of students of
German, and consequently the circula
tion of the Lloyd.
The first paper to succumb was the
Levant Herald, published in English
by a citizen of Malta. It was the last
English paper to "hang on." The
Monlteur Oriental. Turkish owned
but French in language, formerly had
an English section, but this has long
been given up.
With Turkey's entrance into the war
the French "Stambul" went by the
boards, and in April it was followed
by the Zionist Jeune Turc. a paper
friendly to the entente ( allies, . which
Incurred the wrath of trfo authorities.
The latest to .- disappear is the
Turquie. -originally, k published in
Italian, and then in French. It had existed-on
sufferance for some time, and
had been permitted to publish only the
official reports of Germany and Aus
tris. but no reports from other cap
itals. The papers that have withstood the
rigors of war or censoring authorities
are the Cesmanischer Lloyd, in Ger
man; the Monlteur Oriental, in
French: La Defence, in French; Die
Verteidigung, a monthly in German,
and Hilal. in French.
The British steamship Clintonia, -of
3858 tons, was shelled and sunk Sunday
near Ar-Men by a German, submarine.
Eleven men were killed on the vessel
and 15 were injured. The Clintonia,
according to survivors, was attacked
without warning.
One of the lifeboats containing ten
persons was engulfed. In all 4 sur
vivors reached here.

the removal of factories, government
institutions and hospitals created in
tense excitement among all classes of
the population of the Polish capital.
It was feared that the military au
thorities might deem the evacuation of
the city by the inhabitants a military
necessity and would destroy a great
part of the city to prevent its use ny
the Germans as a base. -
. Many wealthy residents left for the
interior and many of those who have
remained sent their families out during
the past fortnight
The streets, wnicn generally are

having passed with a realization that
tbe city is to be spared, those remain

The French and Belgian consuls left
the capital in the early days of Ger

affairs to the American consul, Her
nando de Solo.
The city police and Administrative
authorities have continued their func

confidence of tho people.
In the meantime, arrangements have
been completed to substitute for the
existing police and city authorities the
Polish civic military and government,
should the former llnd it necessary to
cease Its activities. The clvio military
has received full instrustlcns and will
take over tho policing of both the city
and the nearby suburbs.
