night, as the night grew late, the Re

enemy's guns and to be holding forth

Hampered by a late arrival on the scene

uphill fight, but succeeded in winning

Porte's Attitude Menacing.
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.
