Asks For An Armistice But
Bulgaria Has Not Given
An Answer.
CHOLERA KILLS MANY
Danger Of General European War Has
Passed Division Of the
Spells.

Lordon, Nov. 14.-Turkey, for many
years tie domino ering master Of The
Slavs of her domain, today fcTmatly
knelr in suDpecatinn for her one time
victims and asked FIR an armist ce
Bulg ria, given he cho ce of nego-
tiating with the view of granting
SUCH armistice or continuing to pun
sla the Turks until The powers stop
her. at laie hour tonight had given
no Indication as to which of the TWO
courses ef action she will adopt; but
her forces in the field are reported at
lacking Witaou, abatement the Turk
ish line at Tchatalja and the force Of
Adrianople. One report from Bel
grade states that Adr:anople has fal
len and although il comes from a &C.
pendable source, confirmation has
no. ve1 been received.
C'aelera, spreading 9TH alarming
rapidly, has suddenly become mere
potent factor in influencing the
Turks toward peace overtures than
the guns of the enemies There were
four Hundred deaths from the disease
in one army camp a Tchatalja yes
terday and the number was probably
exceeded today. There are now neor-
ly 1900 cases of cholera within the
Turkish lines and mutiny among
the troops is feared. 1t was tn S
fear, according to several dispatches,
that caused the Sultan to ask for an
aTmi5tice.
The number of sick and wounded
soldiers at Constantinople is placed
at $4,000 Turkeys request for
meditation was formally presented to
the Pulgar an premier -4ateasoday by
the ministers of the great powers at
Sof d, the Bulgarian capital.
The Bulgarian minister Immediately
transmitted the request to Ferdinand
in the field and he said he would con-
fer IN the matter with the cabinet of
the Balkan allies. Diplomats to-
night cons der the danger Of a gen
eral European war over the partition
of European Turkey as ended. Rus
STA, given practically no assurance OF
support by England and over-aWed
by the display Of strength by Ger
many and Austria, has failed to in
SlSI II all Aul Adl y oulASl IOi Nv 49,
and therefore Austria now has no
cause to resort to arms. The tr pie
entente in this instance was divided
and The division has prevented war.
The Balkan allies will probably get
mu h less terri'orv tsan thy an
t'cipated, although their primary OBJ
iect-+he ell mination of the Turk,
has been achieved. Bulgarian will
get me Turkish province of Rnmella
and probably a shore of Eastern
Macedonia. Servia, while deprived OF
political authority on the Adrlatlc'
VIII secure very favorable COM
merc,al treaty with Austria. Greece
is understood to be slated for control
of practically all the towns just
north of her present frontier. Monte
negro will be given strip OF 10 or
90 niles of territory on the Adrlat. c
20 be added to the twenty-five m'les
VIII CHI she now possesses. She may
also secure some territory north Of
Lake Scutari. @ N
Saicnika, already bone OF con-
tention between Greece and Bulgaria
will almost certainly be placed under
international control, the allies re-
ceiving only commercial concessions
Albania VII be transferred into a
SEMI Independent kingdom, perhaps
under nominal Turkish suzeralnEy
suca as prevailed in Bulgaria until
three years ago.
Thus, Bulgaria, for doing the hon s
share of the fight ng will get the
lions share of the spells.
