Further Delay of Peace
 Negotiations Is Occasion ed By Another Adjourn ment After Brief Session
 Nothing Accomplished.
IS WILLING TO
 TREAT WITH GREEKS
Makes the Proviso That She Must Be Permitted to Revictual Adrianople Which She Says Is Only Humanitarian Move.
IAssoCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1


 LONDON, Dec. 21.-Turkey is play ing the old game delay and has caused further postponement of the delayed peace conference, which adjourned to Monday after a brief and fruitless ses- sion this afternoon.
 It is evident that the Turkish dele gates are trying to gain the right to provision Adrianople by consenting to include Greece in the conference. The allies are anxious to proceed with the negotiations and have openly hinted that these delays must come to an end.
 Today's sitting was the most inn portant since the beginning of the con- ference and for the first time the op- posite parties managed to come to a serious engagement, which is prelim- mary to the crucial question over the possession of Adrianople.
 Montenegrin EX-Premier MiyuSko- witch who presides seemed, because of his rather severe and imperiOus aspect, to be best the president for the oc- casion of the stormy sitting. When the president asked Rechad Pasha to communicate in confidence that which he had received from Constantinople there was a moment of silence. Rechad Pasha outlined the instruc tiOns he had received to the effect that Turkey should not treat with Greece, as the latter state had put herself out of the negotiations by refusing to ad- l here to the armistice. But, he added, wishing to show a lenient spirit and cOnciliatory disposition and also out of regard for Europe, Turkey was willing l to treat on the condition that the all I lies in return granted the privilege of revctualling Adrianople.
 This, he pointed out, is simply fu- manitarian request as, besides the bel persons suffering from lack of food. Reyictualing this fortress, he argued would not change the situation as it 1 existed when the armistice is conclud- ed, at which time the Bulgarians de- clared they could seize Adrianople 1 Tchatalja line of forts.
 1 Rechad Pasha's statement caused l great sensation and the Balkan dele l gtes whispered among themselves. | The Turkish embassy has received a I telegram from Constantinople denying death of Vice Admiral Halil Pasha and l serious damage to the Turkish flag ship Koeyr- Ed Din -Barbarossa.
