THE GREEKS IN TURKEY.

Constantinople, June 28. News of the Greek advance has caused the most profound dismay everywhere in Turley. The "Times" Constantinople correspondent says that the campaign against the Nationalists forestalled an offen- sive for which Mustapha Kemal was concentrating troops against the Greeks.

SERIOUS THREAT FROM INDIA.

London, June 29.

The correspondent of the "Times" at Eorabay, emphasising the meaning of the Caliphat Committee's resolation of non-co-operation with the Government, says that Gandhi explained that the first stage is the surrender of titles and resignation of honorary posta. If this is non-effective the second stage will be resignation of Government

servants.

INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE.

The Hague. June 23.

For Carpentier, of course, the battle will furnish the unalloring Jopportunity to lose everything and to gain nothing. But, then, there is included in the articles the usual little joker, providing that the bout may be "with or without decision." Hence the no-decision bugbear is in prospect, and will become a reality if the (ight should be held in Jersey.

Carpentier might have ide a more auspicions start than to fight Lavinsky, but any sort of start at all is better than the burlesque stage. The Yankee battler, too, may give the Poin a tough evening's work-and will, unless the foreign title-holder should prove to be far above the Tade, relatively speaking, of most other European fighters who have visited this country recently.

The bout will afford Carpentier obe advantage--the chance to. work himself back into the good graces and the good" will of American boxing followers, whose patience he bas sorely tried by his apparent intention to forsake
