THE TURK0lTA[|AN
 TREATY APPROVED

Rome, December 4.-After two days dis cussion the peace treaty between Turkey and Italy, known as the treaty or Lar same, has been approved by the cham Der of deputies. The vote was sS5 to 2i the latter being socialists.
 Premier Gioltti. in replying to the vari' ous speeches in the chamber today. said the occupation by Italy of islands In the Aegean sea merely was military meas ure. Peace between Italy and Turkey had been concluded before the declaration of war between Turkey and the Balkan states. Therefore, he argued, Greece could make no complaint with regard to these islands.
 Italy, continued the premier, had ask d for guarantees for the protection of the inhabitants of the islands in case of eyac- nation. If this occurred before peace wns arranged between Greece and Turkey, Italy could not oppose their occupation by Greece. If evacuation occurred after the conclusion of peace, Italy could full fill whatever terms were agreed to in the treaty between Turkey and the Balkan allies. At any rate, through the treaty of Lausanne. Italy was free to make her voice heard in the European concert tn favor of the legitimate interests of other people.
 The premier gave details of the proposed expenditure of the first $10oo0,00o appro- priated for Tripoli. At the conclusion Of his remarks he received an ovation.

Delegates Not Announced

Sofia, December 1.-The Bulgarian dele gates to the peace negotiations have not been announced. but it is presumed that Dr. Daneff, president of the chamber of deputies, will head the mission and it is expected that he will visit bucharest before proceeding to London.
 Public satisfaction at the completion of the armistice would be deeper but for the attitude of Greece, which excites an noyance in official quarters and arousos apprehensions of future difficulties be- tween Greece and the Balkan allies.
 The Sofia newspapers offer no com ments on the completion of the armlstice or it's terms. The people have received the news without public demonstration. No lists of casualties have appeared since the war began and relatives now await with anxious suspense the return of the troops.
 The Mir says that the garrison at Adranople began a heavy bombardment at 8 o'clock last night It continued until ? o'clock in the morning when it ceased probably owing to the receipt of the news of the signing of the armistice.
 The Mir says Bulgarian troops who captured Yaver Pasha's army at De- deagtch have advanced eastward and oc- cupied various positions along the Kurt oagh heights overlooking the Isthmus of Gallipoli.

Would Continue War Alone

Athens, December Recommending on the conclusion of the armistice the Athens newspapers express the convic- ton that Greece will if necessary, con tinue the war without her allies.
 According to advices from Saloniki the Greeks are meeting with consid- erable opposition in Epirus. The Turk ish army which retreated from Mon astir has not surrendered but the sub mission of small attachments continue.
 Ar official communication issued by the minister of marine describing the opera tions of the Greek fleet during the war gives details of the transport or l3,ooo Bulgarian troops and 5000 animals. The transports and conveying warships left Saloniki on the morning of November 2f and reached Dedeaghatch at l o'clock on the afternoon of the following day, where they were greeted by squadron or the Greek Aegean fleet.
 The Bulgarian troops were drawr up on the decks and cheered heartily. The work of disembarkation was suspended at nightfan and continued the next morn ing. All were safely landed by the even ing of November 29. The fleet then left Dedeaghatch
 semi-official statement denies the re- ports of fighting at Serres between the Greeks and Bulgarians, and declares the most friendly relations exist between the allies and their armies. It says there is reason to believe the pour parlers between the Balkan states regarding peace terms will result in a common resolution to achieve the supreme object of the war, namely, the liberation of the Christian populations and to maintain full agree ment among the powers.
