COMMON ACTION SANCTIONED,

The situation at Constantinople is neithoritatively described as very explosive. Martial law has not yet been declared, but this is not owing to any differences among the Allies. The French and Italian governmenta have authorised their high commissioners to join the British high commissioner in declaring a state of irga or taking any necessary common action.

No definite arrangements have been rescued to any personal preliminary inter Allied consultation, but the British hold the opinion that the fallest exchange.of views is necessary to avoid farther postponement of the opening of the conference,
