TURKEY PREPARING FOR WAR.

State,

London, Jan. 30. Constantinople telegrams speak of the passimism of the Turkish leaders regarding the outcome of the Lausanne Conference. War- like symptoms are manifesting themselves, notably in that Kemal Pasha, before his departure" for Angers, visited his mother's | where he solemnly averred: "If my country is called to take up

arms, I will never lay them down antil liberty is achieved.”

Adgan Bey is reported to have declared that war is inevitable. Paris, Jan SO. AL & meeting of the Council of the

of League Lord Balfour announced that if the Turks rejected arbitration by the League with regard to Mosul and consequendy peace seemed threatened, Britain would invoka Article 11 of the Covenant, which provides that the League may take action to safeguard the peace of nations in the event of any threat of war. The Council merely took a note of Lord Balfour's declara- tion and passed to other business.

The Cologne Gazette pretends that the French are commandearing all buildings for contagious diseases whereas the French affirm that the military authorities are requisitioning one hospital out of six. The same paper says that the French have cut the telegraph wires in the Rhine regions. As a matter of fact such telegraph wires cut by Germans and repaired by the French postal service. The Wolf Agency accuses the French of causing the increase in the cost of living. The French troops live on their own commissariat.. The (increase of Living is due to the depreciation of the mark.

THE AMERICAN SENATE.

Washington, Jan 30,

The Senate lives a crowded life for the next five weeks in consequence of the announcement of the Goverment's intention to complete the heavy programme before the vacation, including army appropriations and shipping bills.

The storm of resentment at Mr. Stanley Baldwin's statements in his interview of 19th inst found an echo in the Senate.

Senator McKellar, Democrat, declared that if Mr. Baldwin exhibited the same elements of sordid parsimony and uttered the same crude attacks on the American people while bere, the American Com- mission should not have treated with him.
