London, Dec. 2S-That the allies

tent least is the opinion of diplo-

have demanded that Turkey give up
practically all her territory in Europe,
and have let It be known further that
they expect the Turks to pay the cost
OF the war No one expects that this
will be the final basis of settlement,
and the Balkan delegates have already
practically receded from their demand
for Adrianople
On the other hand, the Turkish pro-
posals are not regarded as at all like
ly TO be accepted. They propose TO
retain not only Adrianople, but also
Janina, Scutari and Saloniki.
There has been much talk on both
sides Of resuming the war in case pro-
posals as made are not accepted This
is the good old American game OF
bluff. Both sides have lost enormously
in men and money by reason of the
war and both are extremely anxious

attempts to pour in. Occasionally the

give the air the opportunity. The quick
