ARE GIVEN
FULL POWERS TO
SIGN PEACE PACT
- -
Announcement Made
as Delibe
Are Beginning.

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE credentials
Of the peace delegates Of the Balkan
allies and Turkey give them full
power as plenipotentiaries. They can,
therefore. not onl negotiate for
peace, but If they come to an ar
rangement can conclude and sign 1t.
n point was made cleat when
the delegates met in st. James's Pal
ace this morning to commence the
serious business of the gathering.
Or. s. Daneff, speaker of the Bull
garian parliament, presided. The
first business of the conference was
the appointment Of secretaries. It
was decided that each delegation
should appoint a secretary to act as
secretary of the conference on the day
when the chief of the mission to
which he belonged was In the chair.
This will occur in the alphabetical or
DER of the States represented at the
conference. Thus a Bulgarian secre-
sary today undertook the secretarial
duties Of the conference. The dele
gates then exchanged credentials.
The meeting of the conference last
pa less than two hours. The plenipo-
tentiaries adjourned for the day be-
fore | o'clock.
1t was noticed that, contrary IN
yesterdays procedure, when the dele
gates all lpnched together, the Turks

lunch at their hotel. while their

allied colleagues remained in the
palace.
The conferences decided MOTTO meet
again until Thursday. In speaking
today on the subject of foreign medi-
tation in Balkan affairs StoJan Mo-
~vakovitch, the head of the servian
delegation, said:
1.-THE choice of the United States as
mediator would be an excellent one.
The only fears in this connection are
that the distance Of the United States
fropFsthe scene and its lack of knowl-
rsdsesof the different complex prob
lens agitating the Balkan peoples
might hamper its action, while a
European country would find itself
in reader condition, having for years
followed the aspirations of the differ
emf races constituting the Balkan
family"
M. Novakovitch, taking everything
into consideration, thinks the best
man now in Europe to carry out the
work of mediation successfully would
be Premier Poincare. of France, who
has paid SO much disinterested at
tention to the Balkan con1agration.
If the choice of that statesman, says
NJ. Novakovitch, should give umbrage
to Germany, then an English states
mar might be added, and IL even this
should not be considered as sufficient
guarantee of impartiality, in the
sense that all legitimate interests
would be taken into account not only
of the belligerents but of the great
| powers, an italian statesman might
be Joined to them. Belonging to the
triple alliance, Italy represents in
that combination of powers. accord
ing to M. Novakovitch, an element
quite different from Germany's de-
cided friendship for Austria.
turks Would Lose BY Delay.
NJ. N~ovakovitch went on to remark
that Turkeys customary policy of
delaying discussion and postponing
decisions would this time be only
hurtful to Ottoman interests. Servia,
he said. for instance, had already
| conquered all that she desired to
possess, while Montenegro, Greece
and Bulgaria within a month would
see the fortresses of Scutari, Janina
and Adrianople capitulate from
hunger.
M. Novakovitch pointed out that

and about $4,000 soldiers in the gar

STRIP WOODLANDS

CLAYTON, N. j., Dec. 1.-THE
woodlands have been stripped of red
berried holly and pine and cedar bows
in South Jersey by crowds of city folk
who sought holiday green's. Train
men said they never before saw such
quantities of green's carried away
from the towns along the electric line
between Camden and the shore. De-
mand for the green's has been in
creased locally, because of the m
barge placed upon shipment of Christ

States by the department of agricul-
ture in order to prevent the spread
