Bonnet discussed the situation with the Turkish Ambassador, who protested against the recent killings. A Franco-Turkish pact of friendship is being drawn up, for which reason there is every inducement to France to avoid increased tension. A later cablegram states that the ' Telegraph's ' Antioch correspondent says that extreme tension persists at Alexandretta. Twenty thousand French troops and Moroccan levies are patrolling the main centres, and Turkish concentrations remain on the frontier.
