London.?Turkey has definitely
thrown her lot with Austria and Germany,
and If Portugal la countoi
v and the dlsmaullng of the former,
with prospects of three more?
Greece, Bulgaria and Roumanla? being
drawn In. * *1
_ The note which Great Britain presented
to Turkey on Friday demanding
an explaaaUon of the actions of
tile Turkish fleet in the Black sea^
forces on hand to oppose a Turkish
German cruisers?the Goeben and
Ethe Breslau?was really an^ ultimatum
to which Turkey was required
to make a reply by Saturday evening.
So far as la known here, telegraphic
communication with Turkey being
K interrupted, no Answer was. made,
and the ambassadors Of the triple
entente at the Ottoman capital, it Is
understood demanded and received
their psasports.
Turkish troops which had jeen
on the Egyptian border for some
time already are reported to/have
crossed the frontier, while the Turklab
fleet continues to menace towns
and shipping in the Black eea.
" Neither Russia nor Great Britain
was unprepared for this move by
Turkey, and the allied powers have
forces on ban to oppose a- Turkish
^ invasion.
When the regular forces were
withdrawn from Egypt to take part
I In the war In Europe, they imme
d lately were replaced by troop*- from
"home much greater In numbers, at
least, and only last week they paraded
through the streets at.Cairo, miking
a splendid appearance.
Tha problem for both England and
Russia, however. Is the attitude of
their Moslem subject* who, under
ordinary circumstance*, would prater
pot la ftght against Turkey. I
Another problem relates td the attitude
of Roum&nla, Bulgaria and
Ureace. Bulgaria, owing her existence
to Russia and being under
. as any Obligations in Great Britain. Is
desirous of seizing Thrace as Tar eftst
as Bn-us-Uldla lino, which she
wag awarded by the London conference,
after the first Balkan war, but
which Turkey re-took. wMB Bulgaria
was attacked by Giwdbe and
Servia, would naturally sldo-wlth the
entente. Bat she objects, politician*
point out, OT fighting 'side by side
with Greece find Servia.
Russia, however{ is expected to ask
Bulgaria definitely on'which side sh?
Is ranged,^ as hermere neutrality, under
the circumstances, appears Insufficient.
Should she Join the Austrlgns
and Germans. Rouraanla la
almost certain to declare for the allies
and Greece, even before tbi?,
may decide to {ake her revenge on
i Tnrkey. In fact. It Is believed her
treaty with 8erv!a would compel hei
to take aetion, should the latter be
attacked by Bulgaria or Turkey.
Italy, too. Is brought nearer to
war by the entrance of Turkey, for
enu aaa large Mediterranean tosses
alone to protect I
The fighting In *he lact rew dayi
In Flanders and France hu been ball
a repetition of -what has been golni
<on for days pdst. The Germans hav?
continued to ^ush their attack, aim
ed ultimately at French coast portB
bat, as before. It has .been a ding
dongr affair, one side making- prog
ress only to lose the ground gainer,
the "neat night or day.

acts yet presented here. There
will be an entire change of program

best-line of motion pictures that they
can secure. They will still use the
associated Alms exclusively, but they
have made arrangements for a great

teen getting. As there has been to
dissatisfaction with 'he Alms that
they have been giving their patrons
as every picture was a good subject,
well rendered. We hardly see" how
