HE a War will Stop ; Pending Parley. Homes Have Beer Wrecked and Crops Creatiy Camaged—Forty-two Dead In Montego Bay. ‘With the Churches of the County. ——— Ottoman iNation Faces Lash of Nearly | A great tidal wave is reported ip ‘Notes of Interest to Church People of All Ewropean Empire .as Cost of War. The fighting has cease for the mo @ment between the Turkish and oul gananu armies struggling for ihe (Gs session of the Key Lo the suies of Coustantinepie, and the cpposing cow- mander-in-chiels are engaged in uego- | tiating terms of an armistice. If these pegotiations prove success ful they will be preparawiwury iv a weet ing of pienipotentiaries whe will dis- cuss conditions of peace. In accordance with the suggestion contained in the Bulgarian note that the allied Balkan nations are prepared #0 meet the Turkish commander-in- chief with a view 10 asranging an ar- mis.ice, the Ottoman government has appoiuied Nazim Pasha to confer with General Savoff, the Bulgarian leader. The Turkish general, who bas been putting up such an excellent deiense of the ramparts of the capital, now has thrown on him the addiuopal bur den of deciding whether or not a far- ther display of tenacity behind the fortifications of Tchatalja may bring <asier terms and save to the Ottoman empire more thap Coustantnople and a strip of Thrace along the shores of Abe Sea of Marmora, which, seemingly, is all that the conquerors are at pres- ent disposed to leave w the vauquish- ed. is the meantime the two armies hold their respective positions. How Jong this armed truce will be main. tained, however, will depend on the terms of peace offered by the League of the Balkan nations and on whether the hitherto futile attacks by the Bul- garians on the Tchatalja lines have in- spired the Turks with hopes that the fortunes of war may yet turm in their favor. . Reports regarding the conditions proposed by the allies are conflicting. It is officially stated in Constantinople that the agreement of the allies 10 dis. cuss the terms of aw armistice and the preliminaries of pease does not siipa- late any conditions. Simultaneously with the lull on the battlefield comes news of a diminu- tion of tension in the Austro-Servian dispute by the compliance of Servia with the demand of the Austrian gov- ernment for an investigation on the spot of the complaint made by the Austrian consul at Prisrend that he had been hindered by the Servians in the performance of his duties. On the other hand, there is nothing yet to indicate a solution of the ques- tion of Servia's demand for ports on the Adriatic sea. If, as is threatened, she diverts her army, released by the fall of Monastir, to the country of the Arnaut tribesmen, her relations with Austria-Hungary will, it is thought, be further imperiled. The Bulgarian premier, M. Gueshoff, has telegraphed to Kiamil Pasha, the Turkish grand vizier, the conditions under which the Bulgars will consent to an armistice. The allies previously had announced their readiness to con- sider the proposition made to them by Turkey for an armistice, with peace in view, and this is their answer. "The allies will not enter Constanti-! mople if the forts of Tchatalja are evacuated and four important Turkish towns are surrendered, according to reports of the peace conditions, Adrianople, which has stood out against Bulgar and Serb since first the Bulgarians came across the border at Mustapha Pasha, and where so’ many Turks have lost their lives in’ desperate sallies in the face of galling artillery fire, where cholera and fam- ine have been as bitter an enemy of the Turk as the foe outside his walls, Scutari, which the Montenegrins are besieging and have been besieging’ since shortly after they started the! war, must be given up hy the Turk if he seeks an armistice, | Janina, beleagured by the Greeks, | and Dibra, in Albania, must also be given up by the Turks. i Constantinople and the Dardanelles . are to be left to Turkey. Opinion in London is not so opti-' mistic as it is in Paris. It is pointed . out that Turkey's acceptance of the, terms laid down by Bulgaria and her | allies for an armistice is by no means | certain, especially in view of the suc- cesses which Nazim Pasha claims in the defense of the Tchatalja lines, On othe other hand, the demand of the allies strictly foilows precedent. The Russo-Turkish armistice in 1878 provided for the surrender of several fortresses which were still uncaptured. The Russians signed an armistice at Adrianople, and did not have to fight their way across Southern Thrace, yet Schrank, Who Shot T. R., Is Insane. tive—interesting and full of anextraordinary sense they claimed and received possession of the Tchatalja lines. Beard Burns; Man Dies. A spark from the pipe John E.

President-elect Wilson announced that he will call congress together im | extraordinary session not later than April 15 of next year to revise the tariff. In his statement, made public in New York on the eve of his departure | for a {our weeks’ vacation in Bermuda, he says that he has determined upon this courge not only because he was elected on a platform which declared for an immediate downward revision of the tariff schedules, but also be! cause he feels it is due to the busi ness interests of the country that they should be relieved of ali uncertainty as to what the general purpose of the incoming administration at Washing: ton is. Beyond his bald statement that he will call an extraordinary session the president-elect has made no comment on the situation other than that so far as he was concerned the pledges of his party and its platform would be carried out. Governor Wilson sailed for Bermuda on the steamship Bermudian and wil rest there until Dec. 16. One of his first acts on arriving in Bermuda wil! | be to call upon the governor of Ber- muda and to request him that he be permitted to spend his time there without recognition of his official status, either as governor of New Jer ' sey or as president-elect of the United States. Capitol Chandelier Falls. A 3000-pound chandelier in the hall of the house of representatives at Har- risburg, Pa., fell twenty feet, but did ' little damage, as the floor of the big room is made of heavy concrete.

This was one of the lighting fix. : tures manufactured by the late John Sanderson and sold to the state at $4.80 a pound.
