THE DARDANELLES.
A MISTAKE TO BE AVOIDED. THE ATTITUDE OF ITALY. AN AMBIGUOUS SPEECH. By Telegraph.—Press Association.—Copyright. (Eeceiyed May 6, 5.5 p.m.) .'■■■■ i London, May 4. Lord Morley declared that it would be a mistake if England, in dealing with the Dardanelles, overlooked the enormous Mohammedan interests of Turkey, with which England was concerned, or the traditional friendship of Italy towards England, especially in view of our concern in her position and relations as a Mediterranean Power (Received May 5, 5.5 p.m.) , . Vienna, May 4. The Neiue Freie Presse suggests that Lord Morley meant that Italy might, at a critical moment, be found on the side of the triple entente instead of the Triple Alliance. The Zeit declares that Lord Morley indicated that in the event of a European war, Britain would reckon on the support or the benevolent neutrality of Italy.
