NATIONS,
(Received 11th May, 2.45 p.m.)
LAUSANNE, 10th May. The Turkish; delegate informed the conference that Turkey would shortly apply for membership of the League of Nations and would sign the Covenant. It would therefore be unnecessary to include in the Treaty a provision guaranteeing the signatories of the commercial clauses of Article 23 of the Covenant.
Three Russian delegates to the Lausanne Conference, "Vorowsky, Ahrens, and Stunner, were dining in their hotel ■when the people at a neighbouring table suddenly fired ten shots. Vorowsky was killed, and the others are gravely wounded. Several arrests have been made.
