Thé Turkish army will be reduced to such a point by the peace terms that it would not be effective against another country. The council deliberated this morn- ing over the report of Mars Foch on the military situation as regards Turkey but it did not determine upon the details of the military terms of the treat. When Premier Nitti of Italy loarned | this morning the French premier M. Millerand was unlikely to return to the London conference he reverted to his first plan to leave for Rome on Thursday. This will leave only the foreign ministers and ambassadors to clear up the details of the Turkish treaty, on which the council is agreed in principle. HISTORIC HOUSE SOLD.

Frederick Gibson of this city is the new owner of the property. He bought it from Mrs. Mary Kalbach of Lancaster, Pa. Montrose is situated on the Rleis- terstown road, near Baltimore, and contains approximately 600 acres of land. The house is built of stone and contains about eighteen rooms. It has wide porches, also built of stone, and the massive doorways ot Colonial architecture. It was at one time owned by Charles J. Bonaparte and had been in his family for some time. Like many old places the mansion at different times had the name of being | haunted and has always been very much of a mystery to the persons living in the neighborhood. SALE 1S PO\'I'PO\] D.

ADMIRAL FLETCHER ASKS COURT PROBE com & Level 104 Requested Investigation of His Remova] by ms From Com- mand at Brest. Washington. March 3.—The Daniels controversy taok a new yesterday with the announcement that a court 6f inquiry will investizate the circumstances under which the ad- miral relieved itear Admiral W. B. Fletcher as commanding officer of the American forces in Fremch waters soon after the United States entered the war. The court was ordered at the requ of Fletcher. who arrived vesterday from Hawaii. Rear Admir- als W. 1 Rogers, J. H. Oliver and J. A. Hoogerwerff, with Capt. K. M. Bennett as judge advocate, constitute the court. Fletcher was peremptorily detached from his command following the tor- pedoing of the transport Antilles on a return trip 1o the United States. Rep- resentations by Admiral Sims that Fletcher was “wo unsatisfactory in initiative and judgment that he should no longer be entrusted with the Bres command” will form the subject of the inquiry Admiral Sinis- turn Wilson, now commander in chief of the Atlantic fleet, succeeded Fletcher at Brest. Despite his record (he was made vice admiral while still at Brest), Admiral Sims neglected to recommend him for a distinguished service medal, and wrote to Secretary Daniels that Wil- son was unfit to command the Atlan- tic fleet. Wilson had made vigorous protest to Sims against the inadequate number of destroyers assigned to French waters and criticized Sims and his own organigation. The court of inquiry, it is believed. can hardly avoid going into Admiral Sims’ activ- ities as American force commander in Europe during the wa Henry B.
