From the Turkish version it would appear that the Anglo-French land invésion has resulted in disaster for the allies. Further claims to victor- jes aré made in an official report from Lonstantinople today. It is said the Torces which landed near Kaba Tepeh were forced back along the whole front with heavy losses, four brigades being driven into the sea and others surrendering. One transport is said | to have been sunk. ! British official reports give no hint | of a defeat. The latest statement from London says the land forces have succeeded in establishing a line across “the Gallipoli Peninsula, on the Eu- ropean side of the straits, and are advancing steadily. An unofficial des- patch from Athens states that the allies were victorious in a battle on the west side of the peninsula, in- flicting serious losses on the Turks and capturing one battalion.

Rome, April 29, Via. a. m.—From persons in close touch with the war situation as it affects italy, there was obtained today info mation which indicates that the go ernment has arrived at an under- sranding with Great Britain and France concerning the terms upon which Italy will enter the war, if she eventually decides to do so. This in- formation, while unofficial, is gathered from men who are close to the situa- tion. follows: First: A provision military* action. Italy will from hostilities during the present age of desultory trench warfare, which would enable Germany and Austria to concentrate a large part of their forces against her. She will time her blow to synchrunize with a general effort by all the opponents « the central empires now in the field.

It is intimated that at the Great Britain was not disposed make terms with Italy, but that Italy firmly declined to consider joining the zllies without first having reached a definite agreement with them con- cerning the nature and time of her co-operation, boundary readjustments after the war and permanent assist- ance from the allies. outset ful assistance from French diplomacy ing on these points.

Tihis disclosure, it is said, may now terests affected, as the situation has Teached such a point that no revela- tions can affect the policy settled upon by Italy. The information thus far received is as follows: “When Prince Von Buelow was ac- credited to Rome as German am- bassador he was charged with definite task of preventing Italy from that time that if Italy took up arms it would be on the side of the allies. Sought to Tie Italy’s Hands, ‘At first the ambassador received vesult in success. a diplomat, however, not to pérceive that back of this complaisant attitude of Italy lay the pressing necessity of | gaining time; for Italy was unprepared tor war and needed an interval for preparations.

Completing Military Preparations. “In the meantime Italy’s military preparations were approaching com- pletion. This enabled Foreign Minis- ter Sonnino to assume a firmer atti- tude. He said clearly that the gov- ernment could not possibly come to any understanding which was con- trary to the unanimous wishes of the péople and parliament, stating that there was a complete unity of senti- ment. Futhermore, he said, the cab- inet was unwilling to continue nego- tiations initiated by Germany unless they should be participated in by Aus- tria, with which any agreement neces- sarily must be concluded. “Austria at first declared that Em- peror Francis Joseph would never consent to the alienation of one inch of territory.
