BARLIER TELEGRAMS.

THE SYRIAN SITUATION.

Damascus, December, G. Coincidently with the arrival of the Commissioner, M. De Jouvenol, bands operating around the city, reported to number 2,000 men, threatened an early attack.

The result was acute tension created by the order that no traffic be allowed in the streets after six o'clock lu the evening. All permits were withdrawn, and the troops standing by the barricades were increased.

New bands of brigands are forming, one recruited mainly from the Maldan quarter.

The authorities on December 1, summoned the notables of Maidan and instrueted them that their quarter must resist any attempt at entry by the bands, otherwise the authorities would bombard it.

The French heavily bombed the brigands in the gardens near the Shagoor quarter,

near

It is reported int heavy fighting took place recently Kuneitra, also that a large foree of Druses have gone to Hauran to endeavour to induce the population to join the rebellion, but the population are deterred owing to French aeroplanes heavily bombing the villages,

Beirut, December 5.

The French have occupied Inabaya, and Lebanon is now freed from insurgents.-Reuter.

Washington, December 6.

The American destroyers at Beirut will be withdrawn immediate ly the Slate Department has decided that their prezence there is unnecessary.Reuters American Service.

THE LOCARNO TREATIES.

Berlin, December 6.

The Cabinet resigned on the return of Herr Luther and Herr Stresemann frum London, in accordance with its decision to do so after the signature to the Locarno Treaties, in order to permit of the formation of another, or the reconstruction of the present Cabiner, which is carrying on until the new government is formed.

The crisis is due to the earlier action of the Nationalists, in sud- denly deciding to oppose the Locarno Treaties, and the consequent withdrawal of three Nationalist Ministers from the Cabinet-Reuter.

PANAMA CANAL DEFENCES.

Washington, December 6. Mr. Dwight Davis, the Secretary of War, in his annual report to President Coolidge, deals mainly with the defences of the Panama Canal and urges that the security of the Canal should be assured with- out delay and that Amerift's western outpost on the island of Oahu should be placed on a basis to resist an attack of any probable magni- The tude made with the object of seizing the Hawaiian Islands, programme for the defence of the Canal and of Oahu should be com- pleted within ten years, beginning with the discal year 1927.--Reuter's American Service.
