Greeks Won't Siqn..

London, Dec 17.-An obstacle was
encountered earl: today by the plen-
Dotentiaries Of the Balkan allies and
OF the Ottoman empire. who are now
gathered here with the object or
bringing about peace
The absence of Greece's signature
TO the armistice protocal was the
cause of the hitch in the proceedings
and the delegates found it necessary
to adjourn without effecting any bus
mess.
They will not meet again until late
on Thursday afternoon and in the
meantime will communicate with
their home governments.
The Greek representative refused
to sign the protocol when invited to
do so today, pointing out that it
would make no practical difference,
as the allies We're united and the de-
cisions reached by the members of
the Balkan league would be binding
on Greece equally with the other
members of the federation.
In speaking today on the subject
Of foreign mediation in Balkan af-
fairs, Stojan Novakovitch, the head
of the Servian delegation, said:
"The choice Of the United. States as
mediator would be an excellent one.
The only fears in this connections are
that the distance of the United States
from the scene and its lack of knowl-
edge of the different comglex prob
lens agitating the Balkan peoples
might hamper its action.
M. Novakovitch declared Turkeys
customary policy of delaying discus
sions and postponing decisions would
this time be only harmful to Otto
man interests. Seryia, he said, for
instance, had already conquered all
that she desired to possess, while
Montenegro, Greece and Bulgaria
within month would see the fort
resses of Scutari, Janina and Adri-
anople capitulate from hunger.
He pointed out that Adrianople,
with 10000 inhabitants, ana about
$4,000 soldiers in the garrison, and
Scutari and ,Janina, each with about
10000 inhabitants and 10000 garri-
son, could not be revictualed under
the terms of the armistice, while the
provisions and ammunitions stored
IL those places could not last more
than four weeks
10th Adrianople and Scutari are, he
said, entirely surrounded by hostile
forces, while Janina still has an OPP
ening to the north, but even in that
direction the Greek forces are rapid
ly approaching the fortress. Besides
the country, he declared, is not in a
condition to provide adequate sup
rIipc

has been established in this county

ment of China pheasants today by the

The shipment received this morning
and liberated on the Taylor farm
consisted of half a dozen pair of well
developed pheasants.
Though there Is some waste land
covered with willows included In this
refuge it consists for the most part of
grain and alfalfa fields so that fair
opportunity will be given to see If the
birds will thrive where there Is not
a great deal of timber and brush for
cover"
District Game Warden Averill has
been seeking for some time to secure
"A game refuge in the west end of the
county for the benefit of Hermiston,
Stanfield and Echo sportsmen.

willingness some time ago to sign up
the necessary papers, but owing to
their delay in doing so the west end
of the county will not get any birds
this year as the supply at the state
game farm is now exhausted.
Next year bird refugees will probab-
~ be established and stocked in the
west end of the county, on Birch
creek. near Pilot Rock, and on Nc
Kay creek and near Weston.
