LONDON. Nov 2l.--That Turkey per-
petrated 2. clever trick on the Balkan al
Hes. by means Of which she has gained
time to reinforce her defense lines at
Tchatalja, Is the prevailing opinion In
the capitals OF Europe tonight.
Turkey gave the Impression that she
would receive peace overtures with ebso-
lutely no sincere motive. The allies, will
Ing 10 end the war, gladly assented TO
negotiations and thereby stepped into the
oriental trap.
While the negotiations were in prog
ress, the Bulgarlans ceased operations.
The Turks. given their first brea thing
spell since the opening OF the war. d.
rected their energies toward strengthen
Ing the Tchatalia forts and installing at
the front fresh troops from Asia Minor.
Having completed this WORK. Turkey
today rejected the armlstIce proposals,
and Nazim Pashe. the comlnander-in-
chief, was ordered TO resume opera tiops.
On this point dispatch from Martin
II Donohoe, the International News
Service correspondent at the Tchataljn
lines, is Illuminating. He described the
Tchatalja defenses as now almost i'm
pregnable.
These forts" he says ARE now ade-
Quatcly manned and occupy an euor-
mously strong position

TURKEY DECLINES
TO ACCEPT TERMS

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 2l-The
terms offered by the Balkan allies for
the arrangement of an armistice are
"unacceptable" to the Ottoman gov
ernment.
Nazim Pasha, the Turkish command
er-in'chief, has been instructed to con-
tlnue military operations until more ac-
ceptable conditions are offered by the
allies, but at the same time he is en-
trusted with further negotiations.
The official announcement Of the
porte's decision with regard to the ar
mistice follows;
1.-The Bulgarian premier has ad-
dressed to the Ottoman government a
document containing conditions for an
armlstice which were communicated to-
day to the council OF ministers and
were considered to be unacceptable.
Consequently, and likewise in view
OF the fact that the commander-in-ch chief
has been entrusted in principle with the
task Of negotiating conditions with the
plenipoteutiaries with the belligerent
states-if these plenipotentiaries are
invested with the necessary powers
and has also been directed TO communi-
cate the result Of such negotiations
to us-the commander-in-chlef has been
Instructed to continue military opera
tions, with the help Of the Almighty,
until reasonable and moderate condi.
tions are proposed to us.
1t is said the Bulgarian conditions
included demand for the surrender of
Adrianople and Scutari, the withdraw
al of the Turkish fleet from the Black
sea and the cessation Of dispatches Of
troops to Tchatalja and the building
of Qualifications.

Possible Reasons.

1T may be that the Bulzarians arc
staggered by the strength of the Turk
Ism position and are afraid to risk gem
eral assault on 1t. or, what is still more
likely. they have been unable TO concen-
trate a sufficient supply OF ammunition
for q long drawn out battle OF doubtful
issue. 1t may be that they. too. are suf-
ferinS terribly from cholera and prefer
not TO attack a position which Will only
land them at the hotbed of II.
Everything points to the fact, how
ever that the causes are political, that
an order has come from Sofia TO suspend
all further hostilites pending the Issue
OF negotiations.
The effect OF the retirement Of the
Buigarians on the Turkish troops has
been magical They havc passed from
almost excessive gloom TO an equally ex-
cessiYe optimism. To hear the soldiers
talk one would think they had just won
q decisive victory.
1T Is very unlikely that the Bulgarians
will make any further attempts against
the position. even should negotiations
fall, because they will find their tack
ten times more difficult In the future. as
every day the Turkish army is strength
ened by tho arrival OF some OF their best
troops from Smyrna.
The Bulg7rians have missed their op-
portunity. BY a speedy pursuit after
Lule Burgas they could have occupied the
lines almost without resistance"

day that Hyde. by his control of city de-
posits forced the Northern bank to loan
the Carnegie Trust company $4,000

collapse late In 1910. Robin, himself
guilty OF grand larceny in connection
with the wreclsing OF the Northern bank,
is the states principal witness against
Hyde. charged with accepting a bribe
as a public officer
Although Hyde's counsel moved for
quashing the indictment on the ground
that no crime was charged because 1t
was not shown that the city chamber
lain benefited by his alleged actions,
Justice Gofi reserved decision until the
states case is closed.
Robin said William j. Cummings and
J. b. Reichman introduced him to Hyde
in the latter's office on August %, 1910,
Hyde explained that the trust company
needed sl50,000 and asked Robin to help
the boys" When Robin demurred
Hyde referred to the city deposits In
Robins bank and declared that IL the
necessary aid was not forthcoming he
would draw out this money the next
day. Robins story continued:

were followed bv cable cars, and then
by electric cars of many varieties, the
latest being the pay as you enter, the

federal troops defending the Mexican port
OF Palomas, on the New Mexico border,
made a determined fight today against
some 300 rebels and only surrendered ar-

which was fought from house to house.
By employing dynamite bombs the rebels

the American side that the port had
fallen. But this afternoon 1t was learned
that the federals still held their position
and were being urged to continue by their
commander. Colonel Francisco Corella
who though wounded In the leg, remained
on the firing line.
Brisk fighting continued two more
hours, until the government troops were
