Turkish Soldiers Revolt Rather Than
Fight On Germany’s Side
Constantinople, Nov. 14—The
garrisons at this place and at
Adrianople are in open revolt
wing ,o their objection fo the
war into which they are being
forced. They h. ve seized many
of their officers and are hold
. g them as hostages, threat
ening to shoot them if any at
tempt is made to deal harshh
with the mutineers. A bomb
was exploded in the palace
court of Enver Bey. and a note
was found after the explosion
'fating that the bomb was in
ended for the man who had
old Turkey into the power of
Germany. The common sot

as a nation long ago and they
iemand that the least Turkey
can do is to remain neutral if
she does not want to commit

sponsible for the bomb3rding
of the Russian ports of the
Black Sea, and that the Turk

work the guns at the pistol's
point.

blood could stand and they were
compelled ij return to the pro
tection of the trenches and
walls of Ypres. leaving over a
thousand of their number in
killed and wounded on the de

in a solid wedge, but the fire
of the Allies came from three

The feature Sunday night,
