mats who are closely watching the
situation involving Turkey, Bulgaria,
Servia. Montenegro. and Greece IL that
there had been marked betterment in

For the first time since the crisis de-
veloped the hope was held out that Il

ton in the Balkans. but declared that
no general action was probable under

credited here today. This report stated
that 400 had been killed.
OFFICIALS OF the foreign office pointed
out that II a heavy battle had occur

large force of Turks to have crossed
the Bulgarian border. The powers have
received % assurances from the Porte that
maintain peace. and will assume the

Turkish territory.
Final consideration Is being given to-
day In the chancelleries Of Europe to
the ultimatum which Is to be presented
to Turkey demanding autonomy for
