Adriatlc. is considered in diplomatic
circles likely to add fuel to the flames
of the Austro-Seryian dispute which
have again bIazed up I'm a critical way.
Emperor Francis Joseph is reported
to have remarked:
I'VE are in favor Of peace, but not
Of peace at any price. We cannot stand
everything"
The Austro- Hungarian Cabinet has
sent n sharp note TO. the Servian gov
eminent at Belgrade, demanding pre-
else reply 70 all the questions at issue.
According 70 the ''Zcit' the note was
distinctly threatening in tone. The
"Zeit" adds:
vigorous military measures will
give emphasis to the diplomatic de-
mands should Servia's answer again be
arsiaCtory."
Some papers assert that Servia Is
preparing 10 concentrate her main
forces on the Austrian frontier. Dip
lomatiC circles do not exclude the pos
slbility that the Servians. relying on
the sympathy Of the Slays Ia Austria
Hungary and on the support OF her
Balkan allies, may challenge an issue.

MRS. XMAS ANGEL"
FIorine Arnold Does Fine Work
in 0Id-FaShioned Play.

The Christmas spirit has begun work
rather earlier than usual this year. IL
was IT. its most benevolent mood yester-
afternoon at the Harris Theatre, where
Laurence Eyre's new play Mrs. Xmas
Angel had its first hearing.
Perhaps one OF the reasons why play
going has become such a popular fad III
recent years is that the old-fashioned
plays no longer are given and the palmy
days have withered Not that Mrs.
Xmas Angel" is bad play. OF it's kind
It is a very good play and provides some
excellent acting parts. 1t is simple In its
demands upon an audience. 1t asks merely
for the easy tear and the smile that
breaks through in the midst of the shower.
These rainbow effects were once con-
sdered as a recognition of the fact that
genuine humanity and real life" were
exhibited on the stage. Some play pro-
vIders still think this. Fortunately, real
life does not play on the string Of pathos
continually, and the ready tear Is not
reached for by the real enough life of

Va pilly dAltI lllS lHtulIes=
The Christmas Angel is distinguished
and matronly lady who visits a poor dis
trict OF the city on an Indignation ex0edi-
ton. She suspects her husband of double
dealings with some woman who lives IN
an unheard-of place called Flatbush-"a
marshy place" she decided, Judging
from it's name Arrived there. she finds
her own grandchid sick and in poverty.
The long standing feud between daughter
ln-law and mother-n-law is brought to a
happy close, the child Is successfully OPP
Grated upon I'm the next room, several
couples are brought together, tene-
mcnt house Christmas party is celebrated
at the Christmas Angels expense, and the
curtain goes down on some very out-of-
tune voices singing the 'Adeste Fidelis.'
All of which is unavoidably Irritating.
But the play is worth sitting through for
some OF the acting. Florine Arnold plays
Mrs Hennaberry, the Christmas Angel, and
plays it with capital Characterization. Her
dancing Of the varsouvienne was full OF
the grace and dignity of the old days.
Her fussings, tantrums, humanities and
easily touched sympathies followed each
other like real things and shadows of
real things.
There have been so many clever chill
dren seen on the stage In the last year
or so, all OF whom speak better and act
better than the Dig members Of the cast.

The play will be continued at series OF
special matinees the first ones announced

London, Nov. 20.-Only very meagre
accounts reach London Of the fighting
at Tchataldja, but it is clear that the
Ottoman army is strongly entrenched'
supported by formidable artillery ana
reinforced by fresh troops from ASIA
Minor, and that it is maintaining us
position.
The battle has now lasted three days
1t began on Sunday and went on
throughout Monday and yesterday, but
the invaders seem to have made aoso-
lutely no progress in their task OF fore
ing the lines, which ii is evident are
much stronger and better armed ana
manned than has been generally sup
posed. Moreover, it is certain that the
ull which occurred after Lule Burgas
enabled the ottoman commanders more
or less 10 pull their forces together and
reorganize them.
Magnificent courage is being dis
played on both sides
A graphic description of the fighting
on Monday. published by the Berlin
'Iokalanzeiger' from its correspond
ent with the Turkish army says:
shortly after two o'clock the Bull
garians once more attempt to break
through. but do not even reach the
river. 1t begins to rain hard, and
smoke from the powder renders the
air quite Opaque. Nevertheless the
battle continues. Opposite GazibaJir
the Bugarians bring three batteries
into position. Before. however, they
can fire a shot both men and horses
are killed.
Il can distinctly see fresh men and
horses coming up from the rear. They
vanish before they have advanced ten
PAGES. Then a murderous quick fire,
and the Turks bring in their fine guns.
Our losses are remarkably small in
front of Fort Harden, barely l,5OO
yards distant, the Bulgarians abandon

TERMS OF ARMISTICE
DISCUSSED IN SOFIA
Allies May Permit Albania to
Remain Under the Nominal
Suzerainty of the Sultan.

Sofa, Nov. 19-The allied Balkan
nations to-day assented to the Turkish
proposal TO discuss the terms Of an
armistice and eventual peace. The
reply sent the dispatch Of the Grand
Vizier to King Ferdinand of Bulgaria
says:
THE Bulgarian government, after
agreement with the allied cabinets Of
Servia, Montenegro and Greece, informs
the Porte that plenipotentiaries have
been appointed with instructions to
arrange with the commander in chief
Of the Turkish armies the conditions
of an armistice and subsequently to
proceed to the conclusion Of peace"
Rulgaria's conditions for agreeing to
an armistice were transmitted TO Con-
stantinople early this morning. They
were accompanied by Bulgaria's main
conditions for the conclusion OF peace,
the principal stipulation Of which per-
mits Turkey to retain the city Of Con-
stantinople and a strip Of coast terri
tory in Europe.
1t is understood that the terms OF
the allies for an armistice are mod
crate, and that Turkey may save Con-
stantinople if she accepts them.
Respecting Albania, it is said in we'll
informed quarters that the Balkan
League probably will not object to
that country remaining under the
suzerainty Of the Sultan and that the
powers will acquiesce in this.
Paris, Nov. l9.-JThe conditions Of the
Balkan allies with respect to an armis-
tice, according 10 information received
here, include the unconditional surren-
der of important points such as Adrian
ople, the Tchataldja lines and Durazzo,
on the Adriatic Sea. Bulgaria Will re-
nounce entry into Constantinople.
Many believe that Turkey will yield on
most Of the points in the hope that
Europe will eventually undertake to re-
duce the claims of the allies when peace
is concluded. If the pourparlers are sue
cessful Constantinople Will remain Turk
ish territory, which the powers desire.
