P.)—Af- ter numerous delays and interruptions the work of the Mudania conference-has reached a concluding point - yesterday with the presentation to Ismet Pasha, the nationalist representative, for at- ceptance of the proocol agreed to by ail the allies which as Lieutenant Gouural Harington described it, would give to the Turks ' their aims witain foriy-five days. The convention, consisting of fourteen clauses, is drawn on liberal lines, show- ing strongly, traces of Erench infiuence on the side of the Kemalists. Under it, - the Greeks will. evacuate eastern Thrace within fifteen days and complete the transfer to the Turks in_in additional month.

NEWS OF SIGNATURE BROUGHT RELIEF To BRITISH PEOPLE London, Oct. 11 (By the A. P.)—The aAnnoumcement that the armistice conu- veation had been gizued at Mudania last night between the allies and the Turks reached London early this morning and Lrought rellef (o the gdvernment which certainly will echoed heartiiy throughout the country. As the decision of the Turks promised at five o'clock Turkish time, which is about three o'clock in the af- ternoon, ' London time, the passing of hour after hour without a word coming through of the signing of the convention ated considerable anxiety lest - the Turis had become recalcftrant, notwith- wanding the unity of the allles. Th- anxiety was all the greater because had_ been ation with all |1v:.\l-‘ i | | ful settlement, leading to peace conference. The. British cabinef met this afternoon hoping to be in possession of the Angora government's answer, but as this was not forthcoming the ministers dispersed. They kept, however in close toueh so as to be in readiness when the reply arrived General convi wwas a general Harington In presenting the fon to Ismet Pasha Heclared that Great Britain's last work and reminded the Turks of the serious dan- ger of provoking a conflict with Brit- ish power. To the Associated Press cor- respondent General Harington expressed the belief that the Turks would sign, but added that Great Britain was pre- pared fo rall eventualities. The protocol gives no withdrawal of the Turkish forces from the neutral zones; it simply . specifies “with all possible speed”” But if they sign the protocol, the Turks undertake to respect the neutral zopes until al- lied occupation ceases. There is still no word that the, Turkish forces in these zones have attempted to execute the or- ders of withdrawal sald to have been given by Mustapha Kemal. Should the Turks sign the protocol there will still remain the difficult ques- tion of the peace conference, and par- ticularly the question of whether “the Russian and Black sea state shall par- ticipate in it. The soviets' refusal to rat- ify the Krassin-Urquhart agreement is generally considered as an attempt to bring pressure to bear on Great Britain in this matter. TURKISH DELEGATES ARE DISMAYED OVER EVENTS time limit for Mudanfa, Oct. 10—(By the A. P.)—The Turkish delegates were somewhat dis- mayed and disappointed over the turn of cvents in the past two days. The new attitude taken by France after the Paris conference. puzzled them and they were amazed that French friendship, on which they counted as a main prop in the ne- gotiations, did not yiela the results they expected. At the seasion of the conference Mon- day night Ismet Pasha expressod dis- satisfaction at the terms the allies of- fered. He said to General Harington: “But your new armistice convention is in contradiction to . the assurances giv- en to me by General Chaspy. The con- vention, instead of paving the way for peace, ' only -makes matters worse.” General Harington replied merely: “General Charpy has assented to the terms.” After the close of the formal proceed- ingz, Ismet in the course of-a conver- sation on the recurring subject of France’s promises, said: “It was upon Frahce's suggestion that our army op- eration against the Greeks were ceased, France promising us favorable armis- tice terms.

New York, Oct. 10.—Sensationa! gains in the prices of shares of companies in the Standard Oil group during the past week in response (o the announcements of proposed stock dividends by (wg com- panfes, and rumors “of -such action by everal more, “have resulted in an appre- Cidtion of nearly $1,000,000 000 in.quoted values-above the low prices of the vear. This remarkable increase, without pre dent in the annals 6f Wall street, is the resuit of extensive speculation, which has extended to shares of other oil companies and of concerns holding large corporate surpluses. Shares of the Standard Oil compZny of New Jersey at today’s closing price of 233 ‘shows an_increase of $255,000,000: The market value of the Standard Oil of ew York at its high of today showed an increase of §275.000,000 above the low of the year, while Standard Oil of Indiana has added more than $150,000.000 and Standard Oil of Californla $140,000,000 to their quoted values. Al ofythe other thirty-three units, which were Iplit up by a decree of the United States supreme court in 1911, also show substantial increases in apprecia- tion, the quoted value Since that time. having Increased $3,000,000,000. Since the dissolution, the various-units have distributed more than $1,000.000,000 in cash dividends, while the stock dividends, exclusive of those’announced this vear, I have a markét value of an additional $1,000,000,000. John D. Rockefsller is reported to have owned 30 per cent. of the stock at the time of the dissolution decrce. He is known to have disposed of a large part of his holdings to other members of his family, but had he lLeld " his original shares they would have increased ap- proximately -$1.000.000.000 in cleven vears. of which nearly $400,000,000 would have been added this year. Distribution of stock dividends js said to have heen decided pon to forestall a tax on undivided surplus. which is re- ported to be in contemplation by admin- istration officials to take.care of the gov- ernment deficit. Stock dividends already have been held not subject to taxation, as such, by the United.States supreme court. The surplus account of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey was $594,- 525562 as.of Dec. 31. The Atlantic Re- fining_company holds the, record for the largest surplus in proportion to the stoc! outstanding. The surplus at the begin- ning of the vear was $61,709.049. and the par value of the stock in the hands of the public $5.000.000.

P.)— Premier Lioyd George has clearly no intention of resigning office at the orders of his numerous newspaper critics. On the contrary, he is determined to fight them, and at Manchester Saturday is expected to make a vigorous reply to these critics and defend his Near East- ern_policy. 3 In well informed circles it is also stated thdt there is no question of the dissglution of parliament at the pres- ent time, and that therefore the prime minister’s speech will not take the form of “an_election manifesto. At the same time ' there is extraordinary activity in all political centers, and rumors that the prime minister may have some new legislative programme, ‘concerning in- ternal eforms to expond. A meeting of ‘the unionist members of the" coalition was held today at Mr. Chamberlain’s residence; it was attend- ed among others by the Karl of Bal- four- and- Lord Curzon, and unquestion- ably had some connection with the at- tacks on the premier. One of the most: weighty arzuments against - disselution just now is the nec- essity of parliament ratifying the Irish constitution at the coming autumn ses- sion. IRISH HETRACHY.
