KARLIER TELEGRAMS.

TROUBLESOME TURKEY,

London, Dec.

The so-called exchange of populations, namely the migration of 600,000 Ottoman Greeks to Greece and 360,000 Hellenic Moslems to Turkey, was considered at a meeting of the First Commission at Lausanne, which, after a prolonged discussion, decided to appoint A sub-commission, including Turks and Greeks, which will endeavour as speedily as possible to draft plans for the projected colossal exchange and also to arrange the exchange of war prisoners. Lord Curson hoped that the exchange might be carried out voluntarily. though, in some cases, compulsion might be necessary. He urged, however, that a great economic loss would be involved if the 400,000 Greeks in Constantinople were compelled to leave. He hoped the sub-commission would persuade the Turks to allow them to remain in certain quarters.

Lausanne, Dec. 2.

The Conference is discussing the possibility of shortly adjourn- ing the main proceedings of the Conference in order to permit Ismet Pasha personally to submit to Angora an' outline of the proposed settlement.

Lausanne, Dec. 2.

The Russian delegate M. Chicheria has arrived. The latest arrivals at the Conference are a delegation of Assyro- Chaldians, claiming independence and opposing the retrocession of Mosul to Turkey.

The Turks are mest dissatisfied with the progress of the Con- ference and complain of the Allies' supporting the Greek claims in yesterday's negotiations regarding the exchange of populations in Asia Minor and Thrace. They declare that they refuse to accept a position inferior to the Bulgarians, Serbians and Greeks, and affirm that 20,000 Turks are ready for action in West Thrace, while there' is a large Bolshevist force ready on the Bessarabian frontier,

The Russian delegation lunched with the Turks to-day.

Lausanne, Dec. 3.

At the debate before the Capitulations Commission, Ismet Pasha sisted that Turkey was entitled to denounce the Capitulations.

The Allied Delegates contended that the Capitulations estab- shed a Treaty, which could not be abolished one-sidedly. Other guarantees must be forthcoming. Mr. Child said that in the event assume of legal difficulties the United States world be obliged to the same position as the Allies.

·

Baron Hayashi expressed the sympathy of Japan with Turkey as Japan had been lorg order Capitalations, but Japan took twenty years to prepare a new legal system. It must be some years before Turkey would be able to develop a system inspiring sufficient con fidence to enable the abolition of Capitulations. The Baron urged a raprochement between Turkey and the other Powers.

A BATTLEFIELD INCIDENT.

Athens, Dec. 2.

The trial of Prince Andrew opened at the House of Parliament this morning. He is charged with disobeying orders on the battle- feld.

+

Paris, Dec. 2.

The Temps understands that the French Government, through its Minister at Athens, associates whole-heartedly in aby steps to protect the Prince's life, as France is desirous of doing her utmost tereat the shedding of blood and avoid hasty action.

Athens, Dec. 3.

Prince Andrew has been sentenced to perpetual banishment and military degradation.

The semi-cfficial account of Prince Andrew's trial at Athers says he was charged, as commander of the Second Army Corps, for refusing to obey the order of the Commander-in-Chief to attack the enemy during the advance on Sangarics. The Prince pleaded his corps had been ordered before attacking to await instructions from the Army Third Corps, which had not arrived. Colonel Sariyannis, deputy chief of Staff to Commander-in-Chief Papoulas, said that im- the reply of the second corps that the attack northward was

SO unexpected possible, owing to the enemy's defence works was

a joke. If that the Chief of Staff first thought it was meant as Prince Andrew had executed the order, the battle of Sangarius would in all probability have been won. 31. Papoulas, in testifying, admitted that the Prince was not dismissed from his command be- cause he was the King's brother.

RUSSIA'S NEIGHBOURS.

Reval, Dec. 3.

A. Moscow report says that in opening the Disarmament Cor- ference of Russia with the Border States, 1. Litvinoff read a declaration from the Russian Government expressing readicess to reduce the Army to 200,000, dissolve irregular units, limit war budgets on a reciprocal basis, and neutralise the border zones.

He added that it was impossible for Russia to reduce her Navy. The head of the Polish delegation, Prince Radziwill, who is also desire for political acting on behalf of Rumania, expressed a agreement as a preliminary to technical discussions.

The Finnish, Estherian and Latvian delegates expressed a similar view.

1/

The Finnish and Esthenian representatives suggested that naval disarmament should be seriously considered.

It was finally arranged to qominate various commissions.

THE BANQUE INDUSTRIELLE..

Paris, Dec. 3.

Fernotta, former Director-General of the Banque Industrielle, has been reduced by the Correctional Appeal Court to fifteen months' imprisonment and a fine of 3,000 francs. in addition he has been ordered to return to the bank 806,000 francs, accusedi which he improperly drew.
