Sir: Referring to the note I had the honor to address to the Department of State under yesterday’s date1 in regard to the persons removed from the S. S. China, I beg leave to state that from advices received through official German sources in Peking I was able to ascertain that the Ottoman subjects among those removed are not supposed to be incorporated in the armed forces of Turkey.
