i iioer*. who recently resigned the post
v American Minister to Greece. was in
Cettinjc at the time Montenegro de?
clared war against Turkey, and had
the trlvllege of reading the declaration
itself before it was banded to the
Tqrkish Mlnlater ln that clty, Mr
jlosfs baa alwaya taken e deep inter?
est in the affalra <'f the Balkan States,
and tlu pN sumption is. ln the cir.um
itancrs. that he would be parthulajly
well informed on the plans of tbe alUw
ai far as they would be made known
to any one not directly concerncd. It
may be added as further evidence of
Mr. Moeeea aaaociation with the alllea
that it l? underatood he is to be pres?
ent in London in connection with tbe
nefotlations for the increase of the
Gfcek na\ y.
In rpeaking to-day of the situatior.
inSouthca?tein Europe Mr. Moses gave
lii.folloning outllne of the partitlon
,.f'European Turkey among the Balkan
States in the event of their vlctory:
-It is mon- than llkely that the eaat*
(rn i^rt of Macedonla will fall to Bul
pria. that Old Bervla and a portion of
?be Pandjak of Xovlpazar wlll fall to
gervin and the rest of the sandjak and
Ihe Malissori country. with a houndary
not far north of Yanina. to Montenegro.
The Bouthweet portlon of Macedonla
?nd all Epirus. Crete and the -**gean
liles wlll go to Greece.
This." added Mr. Moses. "leaves the
cHitral Btrip of Macedonia ninnlng
down IO Balontca, which may go to Set -
via. in order to give her a direct outlet
to the sea. and provided alwaya that
the economic and political difnVulties
with Austria ivhlch such annexation is
likely to create can be aultaUy ar
rtnged."
Mr. Moses remarkeil that a difficulty
in maklng peace will be found in pos?
sible compllcations on the questlon of
compensation to Rumania. but did not
believe that the men who had prepared
thla var with the skill and foresight
demonstratcil by the concerted mili
Ury movements of the four allled
iUtes could have neglected so impor
Unt a feature of the final settlement.
H* thought, indeed, that the Balkan
States had reached a definite conclu
tton on the aubjeet with Rumania be?
fore the fiTst steps in the Balkan mo
Mllzation had been taken.
Concerning Auatrra'a interests in a
laal settlement, Mr. Moses thought
iiey would prove purely commercial.

DANGER INCREASING |
IN CONSTANTINOPLE
[ B I 'able tn Tha Tl lBBMM.1
T'aris. Nov. 2.?According lo informa?
tion from abaoiutely truat worthy
aourcoa ln ronstantlnople, the niasses
of tbe ignorant. fanatlcal population of ,
! M.iinbotil. together with fajnlebed I
j refugees from the armleB in Thrace j
| and Kurds from Asiatic Turkey. are all
in such excltement that wholoaalO mas
aacraa of Ohrlslians and lootlng and
burning may take place at any |
moment ahould the frenzled Moslem
niob get beyond the control of the gov?
ernment, whose authorlty is hourly
waning.
The situation is far more crltlcal
I than during the Russo-Turkish war or,
I indeed. than at any time since the con
| quest of Hyzantlum bv the Turk.
Raymond Polncare, the French Pre
imier, has by common consent become
praetlcally the spokesman of the Trlple
; Kntente ln lt? proposals for lnterven
tlon ln the Balkan war. Fortunately, a
I thorough understandlng prevails be
j tween Paris and Berlln. based upon an
earnest desire to prevent a European
(onflagration. but the orucial point
just now ls Vlenna. where, following
the tradltion of centuries, efforts are
being made to deal dlrectly and sep
amtely with Scrvla, Bulgaria and
Qreece to secure h guarantee of Aus
trian inter-sts.
Moreover, the eonviction prevails that
a se.rpt treaty of Ihe hlghest im
portame already exists between Auk
trla and Servia which Will be.otne tbe
basls of the approaohing settlcment.
Meanwhile your correspondent is as
sured on unrjuestionable autborlty
that the unanlmlty of the powera of
the Triple Alllance and of tbe Triple
Entente solely depends upon Austria. So
much for Dame Europe and her good
Intentions. but it ls now believed that
the Rulgarians wlll not listen to an>
proposals of mediation until thelr troops
have entered Constantinople and that
(Ireece wlll refuse to talk of peace
until her army oc< upies Saionlca.
On the other hand. it is feared that
the Turkish government and the Sul
tan are becomlng so compromlsed that
they wlll not be able to enforce thelr
autborlty ln Constantinople nor even
represent the nation when the moment
for negotlatlons arrives.

LORD ROBERTS FACES
LOSS OF PENSION
Covert Threat Made in House of Commons
After His Warning to His Country
men Against Germany.
| Rj OaMa te Tlio Trlt>un?. 1 i
Londori. Nov. 2. -Karl Koherts has
raleed a veritablc hornets' nest about J
his ears b\ his BpOOCh at Manchester
the other day, in which h?> warned Eng
land tO be armed to prepare for war
agflhUt Germany < >nly a few weeks
ago all Bngtend naa only too ready to
hurl deflancr- al Germany and to take
offence at the sllghtest sign of Gernian
milltary or naval actlvity. It mlght
well have been thought that England
not only weleoined but eagerly awnit
ed the affray, but now, with actual
tlghting la Turkey and with a sltua
tlon frnught with danger to the peace
of Europe, it Is remembered that Ger
muny is the sibnt but none the lesa
actlve ally of the power which ia the
chiel" factor of danger to European
peace. The posslbilltles of the sltuatlon
include that of real war, ln whlch Eng
land will l>e ooliged to take part lf the
sltuatlon is not handled with the ut
most care and dellcacy, and poor Lord
Itoberta tberefore is anathema slmply
because he has repeated what every
RngUftUD-a has been saylng for
month*.
A covert thrrat has been made in the
Houee of Commons that Lord Roberts's
half-ray of .? 10,000 a year wlll be
stopped because of the speech, while
many anxious members of Parliament
have taken advantage of the oppor?
tunity to say they hope Germany will
not be offended by the unfortunate
speech, and Sir Edward Grey himself,
in a more than apologetic reply to ques?
tions in the House of Commons, said
that a forelgn power ought not to no
tlce the irresponsible statements of a
man not a member of the government
and with no hand in nhaplng the pollcy
.if the country. Ofl the other hand. a
number of members of Parliament have
Joined in a letter to I^ord Roberts prals
! ing the speech and expresslng their
tlianks for the needed warning to the
country. At the same time _j the at
i tack is being made on Lord Roberts
| the English Ilnd the titmost delight In
cilling attentkM to the fact that the
Turkish army has been trained by Ger
man ottcen, that Turkish strategy has
been taueht by Ueimar.s and lhat the
Turkiah dafanta muat Uierfjfpra he
laken as discredlting tbe (Jcrmaii BrbOOl
of milltarv thought.
