REoRG ANIzATION OF TURKEY IN EUROPE
Berlin. July 2.-With Yesterdays session
of the congress, the problems pre-.
sented by the reorganization of Turkey in
Europe, have been solved with the difficult
exception of the border provinces of Greece
One scheme Of the settlement proposed is
to offer to Greece some rights of supervis-
ion and control over west Roumelia; that
is the same as Macedonia and Eperusi. AS
Austria will be included within Bosnia
and Herzegovina, ard possibly in north
Albania, by thus extending the Influence Of
the neighboring state over the adjacent
provinces, congress might remove the cause
of a future war.

readily yield Bosnia and Herzegovina to
Austsia, on the como itions that that power
at some time occupy Servia and Montenegro,

wrestle with its chief antagonist.
