Constantinople — The government
has convened the national assembly
to take the Balkan situation under
consideration.
t the last council of ministers a
majority opposed continuing the war.
The ministry of the interior haa la-
sued a report of an engagement be-
tween the Turkish and Gre^k fleets
between the islands of Tenedos and
Lemnos, lasting several hours.
According to this official report
there were heavy losses on both sides.
The Turkish fleet returned safely to
the Dardanelles and the wounded are
being brought to Constantinople.
A serioua quarrel occurred recent^
on a Turkish warship In the Dar-
danelles between some of the officers
who were anxious to fight the Greeks
and others who considered that the
Turkish fleet waa no match for the
enemy.
Blows were exchanged and before
the quarrel was settled fifteen officers
were wounded.
The trouble arose through the cir-
culates of a manifesto Bigned "The
Women of Turkey," suggesting that
the forts should sink the Turkish war
ships where poor-spirited officers al-
ways fled at the approach of the Greek
fleet
It was because of this slur that the
Hamldieh made ita adventurous cruise

To Hold Adrianople
London — Late dispatches report
that the Turkiah government had
reached a decision not to cede drian
ople or the Agean Islands, but was
willing to enter Into negotlatlona re-
specting those Islands some distance
removed from the Dardanelles. If
Turkey's answer is unsatisfactory to
the allies, they will as'-, the powers
whether they have means to compel
Turkey to comply with their wishes.
If not, the allies will carry out tha
plan already announced leading to the
resumption of the war.
In auch event the allies will regard
all concesalona hertcfore made for the
aake of peace, either to Turkey or the
powers, as void. Thus they will pot
recognize the undertaking consenting
to autonomous Albania or the promise
of Servia and Montenegro to retire
from the adrlatic. Questioned aa to
the possibility nl this case of Austria
employing force, the head of oae of
the delegationa said Sunday:
'We shall aee whether the triple en-
tente, and especially Russia, will per-
mit Buch action on the part of AuBtria.
If we are forced to fight another war
the cost of which is nearly $1,000,000
dally, we will not abandon captured
territory.
'If Austria were permitted to march
on Belgrade and to bombard our
troops on the Adriatic, and we were
crushed, we should prefer to become
Austrian rather than belong to the
Slav race, when our mother, Russia,
lacks the force or the will to pro-
tect us."
