Ever since the German warships Goeben and Breslau took refuge in Constantinople the attitude of the Turkish Government toward Great Britain has caused surprise and some uneasiness. The : promises made by the Turkish Government to send away the German officers and crews of the Goeben and Breslau never have been fulfilled. It was well known that the Turkish Minister of War was decidedly pro-German in his sympathies, but It was confidently hoped that the saner counsels of his colleagues, who had had experience of the friendship which Great Britain has always shown toward the Turkish Government, would have prevailed and prevented that government from entering upon the very risky policy of taking part in the conflict on the side against Great Britain. "Since the war German officers in large numbers have invaded Constan tinople, have usurped the authority of the government and have been able to coerce the Sultan's ministers into tak ing up the policy of aggression.
