It leaked out today that two of the cleverest hooch hunters in the service of Division Prohibition Chief W. W.

They went supplied with the various disguises and official paraphernalia used so effectively by them in Southern California in running down moonshiners and tracking bootleggers to their sources of supply.

Henvy reinforcements were being moved into position by both the English and the Turkish commanders and a general engagement was expected to develop. The clash came as a result of the attempt on the part of the British to expel the Turk cavalry from the fortified position they assumed yesterday when they made their second invasion of the neutral zone along the Dardanelles. The post they seized is a commanding one and places them within striking distance of either the Dardanelles or the Bosphorus. The united council of the allies, acting through the French commissioner here has served a 48-hour notice on Kemal Pasha that he must vacate the neutral zone. Sir Charles Harrington, British commander-in-chief in the Chanak area, has been notified of the allied ultimatum and has been ordered to act in case the terms of the demand are not carried out. He is hurrying forces into position to launch a general attack. It was reported here that the Kemalists have at least 2500 picked troops at Erenkeui. It was Turtor reported that the Turks were rushing reinforcements of troops, machine guns and heavy artillery to Erenkeui, which would indicate that the Kemalists do not intend to withdraw but are desirous of strengthening their position. Kemal is now at Smyrna having recently moved his headquarters from Ismid before the British lines that are protecting Constantinople. The British advance was made in full force, with artillery, machine guns and airplane patrols. At the same time the allied admirals assembled at Smyrna served the ultimatum on Kemal Pasha, giving him 48 hours in which to withdraw his cavalry and machine guns from the neutral zone.
