THE ARMlsTIcE.
Sultan Granted It After Receiving Communica.
ton From the Gar.

Constantinople, May 19.--The sultan
has ordered two hospitals, of 600 and 100
beds respectively. to be erected near the
fildiz Kiosk, in order To enable him To
visit the Turkish soldiers who have been
wounded in the campaign against the
Greeks.
1t transpired that the czar made a
direct appeal to the sultan to order his
troops to cease hostllities and arrange
an armistice, and this coupled with the
fact that most serious results would have
ensued IL Turkey had persisted I'm her
defiant attitude, brought about the pres
ent state of affairs.
Tewfik Pasha, the Turkish minister
Tor foreign affairs, called upon the dean
OF the diplomatic corps, Baron Won
Calico, to convey To the foreign min
listers the sultan's decision to arrange
All armistice.
II is now believed that the terms of
peace will be negotiated directly between
Turkey and Greece.

HOSTILITIES ARE STOPPED
AN ARMLS7ICE GRANTED PENDING
PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.


The long-iooked-for armistice was is
sued at Constantinople last night. Rus
sia'a'czar forced the sultan tolcomply
with the request OF the powers by order
Ing the mobilization of the Bulgarian
army. Until the czar showed his hand
the porte was openly defiant, but when
the Bulgarian mine, as 1t were, was
sprung. the Turkish government could
not comply quick enough Both Greece
and Turkey have notified their armies
To stop fighting. A plan of settlement
has not yet been formulated.

LAST OBSTACLE REMOVED.
Germany Joined With Other Powers In Pressing
For an Armistice.

London, MAY 19.-The harmony of the
European press on the subject Of the con-
ditions OF peace is remarkable. For once
the scmi-ofiicial papers, The Times, The
Novoc Vremya, The Temps the North
German Gazette and The Fremdenb blatt,
represent public opinion. AZ we'll as the
views Of their governments. In the Wig
orous terms I'm which they denounoe
Turkeys pretensions.
Now that the last obstacle TO a speedy
armistice is removed by Germany. which
temporarily blocked the negotiations,
having instructed her ambassador at
Constantinople, Baron Won Saurma-
Jelsch, to join the other amb8 ssadors In
pressing upon the porte the necessity If
agrecing upon an armistice. IL can =
taken for granted that with the innumer-
able forms of coercion ready in the hands
OF the powers the sultan viii yield to the
inevitable within day or two, and @
pcciahy as the capture OF the Greek posi-
tions at Domokos will go far To satisfy
the Turkish war party.
The order telegraphed TO Edhem Pasha
to cease hostlities probably indicates
that the Turkish government Is about To
yield to the demands Of the powers, and
Il IL further stated that the porte Is now
disposed to reduce Its peace conditions,
anu will forthwith enter into negotia-
tions To bring about permanent peace
between Turkey and Greece.
The correspondent OF The Daily Tele-
graph at Athens says he has absolute
proofs that one Of the powers has made
serious underhand attempts to undo the
work OF the European concert.

Prices of sugar, lumber, tea and 9TH

to pay these tariff duties, but perhaps
he was taken by surprise by the SEN
