WHAT is REAL OBJECT
Of Greece In Not Signing the krmis-
tice Protocol?

Constantinople, Dec. 4.--Speculation
is rife as to the real reason for the
failure of Greece to be a signatory
To the armistice. The Greek demands
We're the capitulation of Janina, and
the surrender of the Turkish troops
in the islands of Chios and Myrtilene.
In some quarters the attitude of
Greece is ascribed to megalomania-
the type of insanity where the ideas
are exaulted According TO another
view, Turkey has succeeded in putting
a wedge between Greece and the SlaV
states, the friction between the Greeks
and the Bulgarians at Saloniki being
adroitly utilized with that object.
The situation has created an appar
ent split in the Balkan League and
aroused the liveliest interest in all
circles, and there is much curiosity
respecting the final outcome
Meanwhile preparations for the con-
clusion of peace with Bulgaria. Ser
via and Montenegro are being pro-
ceeded with. 1t has been agreed that
the negotiations shall take place in
London. and with good will on both
sides, it is hoped that they will be
concluded in about eight days. Thus.
with the conclusion of peace the Slav
states and Turkey will be free to de-
vote all their energies against Greece

Italy, continued the premier, had asked

CAR WORKERS DISSATISFIED.
Men in Maine Central Shops Want
Several Matters Adjusted.

Considerable dissatisfaction is felt
among the employees OF the Maine Cen
trail Railroad 1t the car shops in this
city over the reduction of wages from
20 to II cents an hour. which was
announced, last week. At the rate
of 20 cents an hour, the pay is about
Sl1 week, and the men claim this
is little enough. they say that it is
from 40 TO so per cent. less than the
Boston & Maine schedule, and is the
smallest paid to skilled mechanics
anywhere in the United States
The local branch of the Interna
tional Association of Car Workers
met, Tuesday evening, and the mem
bers We're addressed by James f.
Dwyer, special organizer of the asso-
citation. About 40 new members were
taken in, so that practically all OF
the men are now union members
There are about 200 of them. The
1913 schedule of the union provides
for a go per cent raise. but the men
will be satisfied with the present
schedule, for a time. anyway. The
reduction proposed. they say, is en-
tirely out of the question. The wage
matter is the principal grievance, but
there are other things in regard to
the shop and working conditions
which they want adjusted.

Public satisfaction at the completion
of the armistics would be deeper but for
the attitude of Greece which not only
excites annoyance i'll official quarters but
also arouses apprehensions of future diff

allies.

or its terms. The people have viewed

GREAT POWERS WRANGLE.
CONTINUED from Page one.)

The prominence given by Chancel-
Tor Won Bethmann- HollweP to the ides
of war was resented by the newspapers
of st. Petersburg.
TIE general trend of their comment
is voiced by the NoYoe Vremya, which
says:
History is repeating itself. but it is
net So easy now to force Russian diplo-
macy into faint-hearted retreat
Such intimidation will frighten no
body"
The immediate withdrawal of The
vast Russian deposits IN the German
banks is advocated by many of the
Russian journals.
The war parties both in Russia and
Austria Hungary seem to hold the
public platform for the momen'
against the peaceably disposed minis
tiers Of those countries. Any untoward
incident or provocative act on the part
of Servla would, in the opinion of dip.
lomatic circles here. in moment Sc,
Austria Hungary in motion, and this
probably would lessen forces in Russia
which the government OF the Russian
Emperor would find itself unable tc
resist
Should Greece persist in her refusal
to adhere to the armistiee signed
yesterday, it would necessarily throw
Bulgaria more closely into the embrace
of Servia and give fresh encourage
ment to the Servian resistance to the
European Powers, Who are practically
unanimous in condemning the Servian
demands.
If Austria Hungary should attempt.
as has been suggested, to employ Rou-
mania to keep Bulgaria quiet in the
event of an Austro- Servian war, it is
thought that such action would only
enlarge the area of conflict and pre-
cipitate a general catastrophe.
Any Intervention by Roumania
would, it is argued. inevitably compel
Russia to take drastic action on be-
half of the Slays in the Balkans.
Diplomats realize that the crisis de-
mands immediate treatment and eff
forts to bring about an ambassadorial
conference as quickly as possible have
been renewed as it is thought this is
the only means of bringing the neees-
sary pressure into play to extinguish
the incendiary tendencies of the ex-
tremists in the various countries con-
cerned in the dispute. II is anticipated
generally that Greece will ultimately
adhere to the armistice. although in
any case the practical consequence of
her refusal to do SO are not considered
likely to be serious as she intends to
participate in the peace negotiations
to be opened in London, next week.
