ANGLO-FRENCH ENTENTE.

NATIONS IN COMPLETE ACCORD.

Paris. Jan. 13.

In the Foreign Office debate in the French Chamber of Deputies, M. Pichon declared that the under-. standing with Great Britain was never chosen. There was not a single question which the two countries were not in complete accord, and both were striving to make the pacific situation prevail. Nothing' had occurred in Europe to modify , the French alliance. Her friendship and entente with England would continue under King George as under King Edward, whose memory would ever be dear. The Potsdam were the sequel to negoBagdad railway pourparlers at tiations which had been in progress since 1907. He added that Herr Bethmann-Hollweg summed up the result as a declaration that Ger-, many and Russia would not enter into a combination conceived in a spirit of aggression against other powers.

TURKEY DISSATISFIED

Constantinople. Jan. 13.
