DESIRES DIRECT NEGOTIATIONS I
Would Like to I ettle the Trouble With
Greece Without the Aid of Friendly
PowersMay Demand an In
demnity of 3,000,000.
London, May IS. The correspondent
of The Dally Telegraph at Conatinll
noi,lc says the Bultan resents the me
diutlon of the powers and dajslre lo
ner.ntlate with Greece directly. If this
Is lpfimed the Turkish demands will be
more exacting.
The Berlin correspondent of The
Dally 'News says he learns on excellent
authoilty that the Turkish government
demunds a war Indemnity of 3,0)0,000
and the right to occupy Thessaly until
11 Is tu'd.
The ambassadors of the powers held
a prolonged conference at Constanti
nople yesterday, at the close of which
they presented to the Turkish govern
ment a collective memorandum pro
posing an armistice between Turkey
and Greece on the basis of the nego
tiations for peace now In progress
through the powers. The memoran
dum, which was presented, to Ahmed
TewHk Pasha, the Turkish minister of
foreign affairs by the dean of the dip
lomatic corps, Baron de Calfce, the
AuBtro-IIungarlan ambassador, enum
erates the conditions which have been
accepted by Greece, and begs the porte
to Issue the necessary orders to arrest
the progress of. the Turkish troops.
A Constantinople dispatch to The
Standard says: "An imperial trade

'"l""" MVUIHUie. A XUIKISn
reconnolsance in force at Domokos has
been repulsed, and the attack on Arta,
which promised to be successful, has
also resulted In a check. It is believed
that Edhem Pasha Is developing an
outflanking- movement with the right
and left wings, with a view of render-lug-
the Greek position at Domokos un
tenable." The correspondent of The Times nb
Athens says: '"Owing- to the delay In
arranging the armistice tho govern
ment has addressed a strong- protest
to the powers, declining to bear the
responsibility should further bloodshed
occur and lead to serious complications.
As M. llnlll explains to me, the gov
ernment Is In a serious predicament.
In order to secure mediation It bnej
compromised Itself In the eyes of both
Greeks and Cretans, without obtaining
a positive guarantee that Turkey will
cease hostilities. Should the. war be
resumed the position of the govern
ment will be most unenviable."
It Is officially announced that the
powers have notified the Greek Gov
ernment that the Greek troops may
leave the Island of Crete, and that
the admlralB of the International fleet
Will release the steamers which have
been seized during the blockade.
The Athens correspondent of The
Dally Chronicle telegraphs: "The gov
ernment Is becoming seriously discon
tented with the dlplomatlo situation,
and the opinion Is growing that It
would be better to continue the strug
gle than to submit to terms wounding
the national honor.
Athens continues quiet, though It Is
believed that the numerous Italian
volunteers and socialists now there will
endeavor to foment a revolution lead
ing up to a republic. Hut the Greeks
are devoted to the monarchical Idea,
and the worst that is likely to happen
will be a change of sovereign. The re
turn of Crown Prince Constant!!! to the
capital might produce disturbances,
but he Is likely to be discreet enough
to avoid Athens for a time.
The Athens correspondent of The
Dally Telegraph says: "IJy the csar'g
express command ount Muravieff, the
Russian foreign minister, has Instruct
ed M. de Nelldoff, the Russian ambas
sador at Constantinople, to Insist per
emptorily upon a cessation of hostili
ties by Turkey. I also learn that Count
Muravieff has decided to have an as
sembly elected In Crete In order to as
certain the true Cretan opinion. If the
Cretans reject autonomy the entire
question will be reconsidered, This at
titude is full of hope for Crete and
Greece,"
