Germany At Last in Line, and with the
Other Powers Pressing the Porte for an
Armistice, Which Is Practically Con-
ceded-Greece Preparing to Arm Her
Whole Population and Fight to the End
-Edhem Pasha's Orders.
London, May 19.-The harmony Of the
European press on the subject Of the
conditions OF peace is remarkable. The
semi-oEcial papers, The Times, The
Novoe Vremya, The Temps, The North
German Gazette. and The Fremden-
blatt, are as one in the vigorous terms in
which they denounce Turkeys preten-
sions. Now that the last obstacle to a
speedy armistice is removed by Ger
many, which temporarily blocked the
negotiations. having instructed her am
bassadCr at ConstantiRople, Baron Won
Saurma-Jeltsch, to Join the other am
bssssdors in pressing upon the porte the
necessity of agreeing upon an armistice.
1t can be taken for granted that with the
innumerable forms Of coercion ready to
che hands Of the powers the sultan will
yield to the inevitable within a day or
two, especially as the capture of the
Greek positions at Domokos viii go far
to satisfy the Turkish war party
Edhem Pasha Ordered to Quit Fighting.
An order telegraphed to Edhem Pasha
tc cease hOstilities probably indicates
that the Turkish government Is about to
yield to the demands Of the powers. 1t
y further stated that the porte is now
disposed to enter into negotiations to
bring about permanent peace with
Greece upon terms less onerous than
those which have been heretofore de-
manded. There is no confirmation here
o: the report of disturbances at Athens,
though no doubt there are grounds to
fear a popular manifestation.
Greece Getting Ready for the Worst.
Athens, May 19.-The Asty says that
NJ Ralli, the premier. has informed the
ministers of the foreign powers that un-
less an armistice is quickly concluded the

lenism. calling upon all able-bodied men
to take up arms in defense of the father
land in danger and that a royal message
will summon beneath the standard the
entire landsturm and the peasants, who
will also be armed This news has caused
intense excitement. The feeling in off,
cial circles is very pessimistic.
Armistice Is Declared.
Athens, May 19.-The communication
from the Turkish to the Greek COM
mander at Arta which followed the
raising of the flag of truce by the for
mer was in Turkish, and ran as follows:
"On condition that no Greek soldier be-
longing to any arm of the service re-
mains on territory of the Ottoman en-
pire. we have orders that an armistice
shall be concluded on sea and land with
a view of arriving at an understand
ing
The Greek commander telegraphed to
Athens for instructions and the govern
nent replied: I'VE authorize you to sus-
pend hostilities in order to discuss the
conditions Of an armistice." The govern
ment in notifying the ENJOYS of the pow
ers as to this proposal said that as
Greece had entrusted her interests to
the powers 1t was for them to negotiate
