SHOWS SIGNS OF YIELDING.
Turkey Seems Disposed to Avert War
With Bulgaria.

LONDON, Sept 23.-The Balkan situa-
ton to-day presents somewhat puzzling
aspect. Turkey is showing signs of yield
ing to the Bulgarian demands, and it is
evident from the daily meeting of the
Council of Ministers in the Yildiz Kiosk
that some sort of negotiations are in
progress, with the object of avoiding war
According to a dispatch to the Daily
Mail from Constantinople, these counsels
concern two possibilities-either to make
an arrangement satisfactory to the Mace
domains or to obtain from the great pow
ers promises Of neutrality If 1t be found
impossible to avoid a
Apparently both Turkey and Bulgaria
are anxious to repudiate having taken
the initiative in the negotiations.
The Sofia correspondent Of the Daily
Telegraph asserts that overtures came
from Turkey and were welcomed by the
Bulgarian Minister, on the condition that
deeds were substituted for words and that
the cessation of wholesale massacres be-
come an accomplished fact The cor
respondent adds that a pacific solution,
If it comes, will emanate from CONSTANT
nople, where the Bulgarian representative
is invested with full powers and the ne
gotiations are said 10 be proceeding salts
factorily.
The same correspondent saws that in
the meantime devastations by fire and
sword continue and the Bulgarian Gov
ernment has received from trustworthy
sources a grewsome tale of massacre
tortures, indignities and burnings. in
many instances the victims being slowly
roasted alive.
The assertion is made in another Sofia
telegram that the Sultan will issue an
trade on Thursday granting the demand
for a mixed commission, but this state
ment is not confirmed and would seem
to be negatived by the dispatches from
Constantinople.
Monastir correspondent of the Daily
Chronicle, writing on September Is, saws
the Bulgarian list of villages pillaged and
burned reaches a total of 104
According to dispatch from Odessa.
the whole Russian Black Sea fleet is kept
on a war footing in readiness for any
eventuality.
