derstood MIR. McCrea replied in the

sideration of the railroad man for

something Of shock to the radicals

London, Dec. 4.-Adrianople was the
obstacle which threatened to wreck
the parleys between the plenipoten-
tiaries of Turkey and the Balkan allies
when they first opened at Bachtche
and Adrianople appeared again at the
end of the negotiations as the most
serious hindrance to the attainment of
an agreement.
During the first session of the dele
gates the Turks absolutely refused to
consider the surrender of the strong
hold of Adrianople and when the Bul.
garians subsequently yielded to them
on this point the Greek delegates
shrank back and demanded time In
which to submit the question to the
government at Athens.
The reason for the Hellenic objec-
tion to any such submission to the de-
sires of the Ottoman representatives
Is not far to seek, according to the
opinion expressed in diplomatic cir
cles.
Reason for Greece's Objection.
1t is pointed out that it is obvious
that If the Bulgarians sacrifice the
ultimate possession of Adrianople in
the interests of general peace, they
Will expect their allies to share their
sacrifice, and the only way in which
this can be done is to give Bulgaria
compensation in the shape of terri.
tory conquered by the Greeks, Servians
and Montenegrins and which they
staked out for themselves.
Hence the wall from Athens that
any concessions to Turkey will "en-
danger the fruits of victory gained by
the allies--above all those of Greece
and Servia."
Greece apparently anticipates that
in case Turkey ultimately retains her
northern fortress Bulgaria will more
actively dispute the Hellenic claims
to the possession of Saloniki.

After sitting all through the night
the democratic national convention
reached its first ballot on the presi-
dental nomination shortly before
O'Clock this morning.
All of the candidates were so far
away from two-thirds vote that the
delegates looked forward today to q

After the first ballot, the conven-

AS was expected, Clark led all the
other candidates on the first ballot.
He received 44O1a votes, to 324 for
Wilson, his nearest rival. This, how
ever. still left the speaker 2S6ih
votes short of the necessary two
thirds.
Mr.. Bryan got one vote, from the
Ohio delegation. Some of his friends

more scattering votes: but the fact
that he did not show any strength
on the first ballot did not discourage
