Germans Planning :
to Bombard Dover
from Across Strait
LONDON. Oct. 30. The correspondent of
the Daily Mall In France explain In a
dispatch tody that If Dunkirk and
Calais are to be of any use to the Ger
mans they Biut have the coaet road, un
less they build a special road, because
the coast road Is the only one fit to bear
the heavy guns with which they hope
to bombard Dover. He adds:
"The German' naval gunners are doing
better than the army runners, having hit
the torpedo boat destroyer Falcon and
killed Its commander and four men. The
Oertnan fire, however, is quite Insignifi
cant In effect as compared wltn the Brit
ish naval fire.
,VOn the other hand, the German spy
system Is amasmgly efficient. It Is pus
sling the British officers how they get
their news.1 Before the British battle
ship Venerable had been off, the Belgian
coast for half an hour a German subma
rine wea- dodgmg -after It Pour addi
tional German submarines were about
yesterday."
PARIS IS PLEASED
. ALONG THE FRONT
(Continued from Page On.)
a published article declares that the out
look for the Oermans ! bad all along
the line. He predicts another effort
agatast-the -allies left wing which will be
a serious one. The Idea Is advanced by
soma observers that the Oermaas win
abandon ' their effort to ' get ' through to
Calais and trv Instead to reach Boulogne,
but It Is not believed that this slight
change of route will Increase the chances
of success. .
Many rumors are circulating in Parts
due In large measure to the lack of
news from the front. For example, It
was persistently reported last night that
Ostend had been reoooupied. by the allies.
A list of promotions Issued by the war
office gives the assignment of eight
generals to fill the plaoea made vacant

Ghost of European
Concert Watohes the
Outlook in Albania
LONDON. Oct. J0.-A dispatch from
Bucharest. Boumaata. to the Times says:
"There are now six Italian warshtpe at
Avlona. The whole duty of enforcing the
decisions of the conference of London la
Albania will be entrusted U Italy as the
sole neutral power among the signatoHea
"At present Albania Is under six dif
ferent regimes. Scutari Is governed by a
local commission composed of Moslems
and Christians; Avlona Is also under a
local commission: the 'Merdltes. ..Chris
tian tribe la upper Albania, have formed
a separate state; the Maltssuri tribes re
main under a patriarchal institution; the
southern districts are ucdtr the Qreek In
vaders, while Uuraaso and the central re'
gtona are under Esssd Paaae. i .
'The lateroatkaai commission Is re
duced to four metnbere who pereonete the
ghost of the Europeaa concert. Kxcept
la the south, the country is remarkably
tranquil. Friaoe William of Wled. al
though given assurances by Uie king of

of a position on the tiirnts start.

WAPinNOTON. Oct. M.-Actlng Secre
tary Ianlng today announced receipt- of
a telegram from the American charge d'
affaires at Pctrograd. saying Odessa has
been . bombarded and some American
property destroyed. The dispatch from
Charge Wilson transmitted a message
from the American consul at Odessa,
who said he would send 4 fuller report
later on the extent Of American property
ilamag-ed. He did hot say by whom the
bombardment ' was done, but It Is pre
sumed here Jthat It was Turkish. ships.
Turkey's entrance Into the field of war
like, operations, though not unexpected,
bas caused a sensation In official circles
here because of its probable far-reaching
effect Probably no one factor In the
great European struggle Is regarded so
uncertain In quantity and quality ss the
Turkish empire. The probability that by
yesterday's act of war against Russia
the Balkan states may be drawn Into the
vortex of the great conflict, thereby cut
ting off a vast quantity of food supplies,
which It had been expected would go to
the maintenance of the northern Euro
pean countries during the war, has
brought home to the officials .here a
realisation of the very close and Intense
Interest of the United States in the latest
development. ... . .. . . V
The result of Turkey's action as viewed
by the military experts here will, be' tt
greatly embarrass Russia at the outset.
For months It has been known that the
Ottoman government was preparing for
military operations. No dispatches have
been received from Constantinople for
several days.
Ever since the outbreak of the Euro
pean1 war official dispatches from Am
bassador Morgenthau have told of the
slight thread on which the issue of war
or a maintenance of neutrality hung In
Turkey. He has reported the rise and
fall In the strength of the war party,
the efforts of the large commercial In
terests of Turkey, already weakened by
previous wars, to preserve Turkey's neu
trality, and of the critical conversations
between the Turkish Foreign office and
the (diplomatic representatives of the bel
ligerent countries.
Tarkey'a Aettoa Expected.
Diplomatic representatives in Wash
ington of the allied powers have believed
from the outset that as soon as Turkey
had fully prepared its army and navy
for the conflict it would cast the die
for war. Great Britain, ' Russia and,
France have, through their ambassador,
made It plain to Turkey, It Is understood,
what thj consequences of its entry might
be. Thi Angle-French fleet, which has
been comparatively unoccupied In . the
Mediterranean, would bombard the ports
of Asia Minor; Oreece probably would
Join the. allies against Turkey, and the
Balkan states drawn Into the general
imbroglio, with, the prospect that Italy
might be found fighting Turkey as well.
That the conflict might extend to
Egypt, Persia or Arabia, with the possi
bility of the Japanese fleet supporting
The Greek navy, with Its two Araerl
operatlons . of the allies, . has been dis
cussed here. ' '
can-built battleships, formerly the Idaho
and the Mississippi, which must be reck
oned with, are superior to the Turkish
cruisers in armor and armament.
One Cjf the uncertain elements In the
political side of the problem is the ef
fect upon ' the great Moslem population
of India, It la pointed out, . too, that
there are probabilities that Egypt
would be drawn In, through Its political
and religious affiliation with Turkey,
thus affecting British suzerainty over
Egypt and the control of the Sues ca
nal, a very necessary link In the British
chain of communication between Eng
land and India.
From a 'military point of viow. it Is be
lieved that Russia would have little to
fear from an attack by the TurkUh
army. It is regarded as certain that
such action doubtless would immediately
be followed by declarations of war
against Turkey by several of the Balkan
states. (
From a naval viewpoint, Turkey can.
not work much mischief, exrerta her
say. its nsvy lins bfrn Increased by th
addition of two German armored crulf
ers, the fires' u and Oooben, but th
KiiHPian Hla'k sea fleet Is regarded
more than a match for these.
America a Warships Will Watch.
Because of persistent rumors of possi
ble antl-Chrlftlan uprisings as a result
of general disturbances. Ambassador
Morgenthau at one time advised that
an American warship be present In Tur
kish waters for salutary effect and to
lend aid to Americans in case of an
emergency. The cruisers. North Caro
lina and Tennessee, whloh were sent to
Europe with gold for relief purposes, ari
now and probably will be maintained in
the eastern Mediterranean. J
The policy of Greece, as previously f -
nounced by Minister Schlinmann here,
would cause Greece to enter the war in
caso any of the Balkan states should
take up arms. Minister Schliemann sug
gested that it was posslblo that the re- '
ported action of the Turkish warships
might have been prompted bv. a mutiny
of the crew, as In the case of the Potem
kin In the Russian revolution.
The full war strength of Turkey's army
is 300.0(10 trained men. according to stat
istics here, but In addition It Is believed
that there are about 400,000 Irregulars
available.
The regular army corps Is composed of .
thirteen armv enrrm mnat nf mKlnh o
In Turkey in Asia. The Infantry Is said
now to be the strongest branch. .The ar
tillery lost many of Its guns during the
recent Balkan war.
Turkey s naval strength consists of
three battleships, four cruisers, three tor
pedo gunboats, ten destroyers, ten tor
pedo boats, twenty-eight small gunboats,
a coast defense ship and some auxiliary
craft. The battleships are old and none
have guns larger than eleven-Inch.
Two of the four cruisers are the Goeben
and Breslau, recently secured from Ger
many. -
The personnel of . the navy, according
to latest information available here, con
sists of one vice and eleven rear admir
als, 208 captains, 2S9 commanders. 228
lieutenants, 187 ensigns, 30.000 sailors and
9,000 marines.
Lockhard Sees End
of Factionalism in
S.D.RanksofG.O.P.
PIERRE, 6. D.. Oct. . (Special Tele
gram. John L. Lockhart, chairman of
the republican state committee, today
gave out his final statement on the cam
paign Just closing. The statement fol
lows: It is Indeed gratifying to state that I
believe the present campaign will for
ever end the factional fight which has
rent the republican party In the state for
years, and that in the future there will
be a united progressive republican party
presenting a solid front end battling to
gether aalnst the common enemy. In
the campaign which Is just closing I have
had the united support of the leaders of
both factions and have no cause for com
plaint. That the result next Tuesday will
be overwhelming for the entire ticket,
senatorial, congressional and Ltate, there
Is no doubt.
Not only have the leaders loyally sup
ported the ticket, but with few excep
tions the rank and file have responded
nobly whenever I have called upon them.
Factionalism haa been thrust aside, J er
sonal ambitions have been forgotten and
united the battle has been carried on
with no friction or dissention whatever.
I accepted the position of state chair
man because I believed that the. time
had come when it was possible to unite
the party, and the result has been more
than gratifying. .The final reports which
are now in more than Justify me in stat
ing that not a single candidate on the
republican ticket will fall by the way
side next Tuesday.
This la my final word to the repub
licans of the state of South Dakota be
fore the close of the campaign, and I
trust that every man will do his duty
next Tuesday, and the result will be one
that will heal over the wounds and cause
future battles to be easy.- (Signed)
JOHN U LOCKHART.

New British" Admiral
Will Hang First and
LONDON, Oct. . Fred T. Jane, naval
author and Journalist, y whose intimate ;
acquaintance wltH naval matters makes
his statements authoritative, writing (a
the Evening Standard, says that under
the Fisher naval administration "We
may expect a rapid curtailment of the
rights of neutrals to come aad go as) they
please In our waters.
"Ruthless, remorseless and relentless
was one of Lord Fisher's war maxlmiftns
ia the old days. We may look for short
shrift from him for any German captured i
who haa achieved results by using any 1
flag except his own. It will probably be ,
a case of hang first and inquire after-;
wards, and If publlo opinion or the cabi
net object, let them object."
Sr. Jane suggested that the numaal
tsrlum element la the British cabinst has
hitherto Interfered in a question like' of
that of mine laying and he says thaf
Lord Fisher will not permit such later
ference.
