AN INDIAN INNOVATION.

WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION BILL.

SIMLA, September 13.

SIMLA, September 13, French press comments have excited deep feeling amongst Moslems in India. They are regarded as revealing a pro-Greek tendency in the British policy. A meeting of Moslem members of the Legislature has telegraphed to Mr. Lloyd George impressing upon him the vital need of the British Government observing strict neutrality in the Turco-Greek conflict and appealing for the restoration of Anglo-Turkish friendship, thus the Assembly when Mr. Innes, an official mamber, in- reuniting the British Empire and the Moslem world They also telegrajhed the Viceroy emphasising the desirability of the restoration of peace on terme generally favourable to Tarkjah ambitions.

Athens to day reports encounters between Bulgarian Comitadjis and Greek detachments at Nevrokop resulting in the repulse of the Comitadjis.

"LEGITIMATE TURKISH ASPIRATIONS."

FRENCH PHRASE EXPLAINED.

LONDON, September 13. The phrase "legitimate Turkish aspirationa" was explained by the French Charge d'Affaires in a visit he paid to the Foreign Office as meaning that fresh Turkish successes must be taken into account in peacemaking. This is interpreted by the English press as meaning that France favoure the return of Thrace to Turkey.
