UNREST IN SYRIA.
FRANCE LOSING CONTROL. By Telegraph.—-Press A**n.—Oopyritf* Received Sept. 28, 8.20 pJD. London, Sept. 27. The Cairo correspondent of the Dailjr Express reports that France will be <mable to hold the w’hole of Syria much longer. Already northern Syria ii largely under the sway of bandits and even the main caravans route is closed. Business men from Beirrout who travelled through the Aleppo district state they were often fired on in that enormous mountain tract, which the French, forces are unable efficiently to control. The tendency seems to be toward France retaining the Great Lebanon and handing over the rest of Syria to the Kemalists.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
