ALLIES DO NOT INDORSE
WILSONS TURKISH VRW
? .
WuhlngtoB, April 19.?Tkt iliM
reply to President Wilson's Turkish
note is regarded by diplomatic officials
hore to point out that without the acceptance
of the United State* of re?l>onniltiHty
for part of the burden of
the solution of the Turkish question,
the allies have found it impossible to I
adopt the President's suggestion * that
the Turk be driven out of Europe.
The allies have taken the position,
it was said, that the eviction of the
sultan from Constantinople was impossible
without the assumption by some
jmwer, preferably the United States,
of the obligation for the protection of
Constantinople and contiguous Turkish
territory. For economic and political
reasons, officials said, choice of any
other power than the United States
was precluded and since the United
States has refused the proffered nun'
riiite over Turkey, no other solution
than to leave the Turk in Constant!nople
under interallied control was possible.
Supervision of the Turk, It is generally
believed by officials, will devolve
upon the Ottoman debt commission
which before the war consisted of representatives
of Great Britain, France,
Italy, Russia, Austria-Hungary and
Germany, but which is now limited to
the three allied powers.
TURKISH TREATY APPROVED
BY ALLIED COUNCIL MONDAY
Ran Remo, April 1#.?The Turkish
trcnty was approved by the allied council
toduv in the general form in which
it was drawn by the council of foreign
ministers in London. Changes were
made in two points but these were not
disclosed. It was decided to request the
Turkish plenipotentiaries to present
vncmseivcs in ixmaon on May 14 to ncoive
the treaty.
The council decided to reply to Preaident
Wilson's note on the Turkish ?ubjed
giving him full explanation* a* to
why it could not accept the polnta he
nuide in this connection. !
The reply of the allies in thus sup (
plying full information on this question
is taken here to indicate their general
attitude toward the Unted States government
in treating the unsettled Euro- .
pean problems.
REVOLUTION IN MEXICO IS
APPARENTLY GAINING GROUND
Agua Prieta, Sonora, April 19.?The
revolutionary movement of Sonora
against President Carranaa is gaining
ground rapidly the military headquarters
here reports.
General J. M. Pima, commander of
the Sonora troops in this district, an
nounced Gen. Francisco Ur bale jo, with
his Carrnnxa forces at Santa Rosalia,
Chihuahua, had revolted and wonld take,
the field for the Sonora movement.
Unconfirmed reports of the revolt*
by other Carranza troops in Chihuahua
also were received, it was said.
Military headquarters at Hermoeillo
also sent out a report today that the
troops of Gen. Angel Flores wer# con ,
tinuing their march toward Masatian.
an important west coast port of Mexico.
From Nogules, Sonora, came the re
port that the independent state govern
mint of Sonora, through its secretary
? ?/
of state, had issued a statement guaranteeing
protection to all commercial
interests in Sonora.
Sonoru's chief force to oppose Preel- ,
* dent Carranxa on the Chihuahua fron
tier will be Yaqui and Mayo Indiana,

the Indians is being made hare to attack
the forces of the Mexican president,
according to the announcement of General
Pima.
SUPREME COURT WILL MOT
INSIST OH BLACK COAT
Columbia, April 20.?Since the memory
of man runneth not to the contrary,
it has been the rule of the supreme
court of South Carolina to require
members of the bar to appear before
it in n black coat.
That rule has been suspended until:
October 1, 111*20. Members of the bar
are not now required to wear black
nor any other sombre color?indeed they
mny appear in overaals and still not
rouse the ire of the court.
Yesterday, upon request of the bar
members, the supreme court of the state
suspended, until October 1, rule IS, which
is to the effect that no member will be
heard unless wearing a black coat.
One of the rules of the court of appeals,
which rule was adopted in January
1H3A, reads, "sheriffs are required to
wear a black coat, a cocked hat and a
sword. The clerks and members of the
bar will Im? required to wear in court a
black coat." And that rule, with certain
modifications, has stood through the ,
years, hut yesterday it was suspended
in the interest of economy.
While the circuit judges have not yet
voiced any opinion as to the propriety
i ?i.w>rney? appearing before It in any- I
thing other than black, it ia likely that |
they will not be long in following the
lend of the supreme court.
