mo CONCESSIONS OFFERED
TURKS STAND ADAMANT ON
THEIR DEMAND THAT THEY
RETAIN ADRIANoPLE
NEGOTIATIONS TO RESUME
THE DATE, HOWEVER, is UNSET
tiled AND MAY BE DELAYED
A CONSIDERABLE TIME

London, Jan. 6.-At the peace con
ference today between the delegates
of the Balkan states and Turkey, the
Turkish ENJOYS offered to make furth-
er concessions which we're consider
cred by the Balkan plenipotentiaries
sufficient to prevent the threatened
rupture Of the negotiations.
The peace negotiations win be re-
sumed, but the date Of the next meet
ing was not fixed at the conclusion
Of todays session The official report
of today's meeting says:
Having examined the new propos-
a's, the Turkish delegates made re-
ply to the declaration of the allies.
The latter declared the work of the
conference suspended.
The Ottoman delegates presented a
statement in which they spoke of Tur-
keys earnest desire to reach settle
ment, but offered no important con
cessions. They remain adamant upon
the subject Of Adrianople
The delegates Of the allies then ad-
jcur1ied to consider the Turkish offer
and upon returning presented a coun
reinstatement, adding that as the Turks
had not met their terms, they must
ask an adjournment without date. The
delegates subsequently emphasized the
negotiations had not been broken off.
By "suspending" the sittings of the
peace conference the delegates Of the
allied Balkan nations claim to have
left the next move to the Turks. Re
chad Pasha, they say, has the alterna'
tive Of presenting fresh proposals
which shall follow closely the de
mands Of the Balkan league and thus
resuming the conferences, or Of ad-
herring to the Turkish claim for the
retention Of the fortress Of Adrian
ople and rupturing further negotia-
tions
An important advance has been
made by the Turks toward meeting
the demand of the Balkan allies, ac-
cording to the opinion expressed by
the representatives of Bulgaria in re
CAD to the new Ottoman proposals as
to the future frontier between Bulga-
ria and Turkey
The Ottoman delegates were expect
ed to present a definite project dur.
ing today's sitting Of the peace con
feernce, suggesting that the western
! frontier should follow the course OF
the rivers Martha and Tundje, thp

Washington, Jan. 6.-Answering
criticism aimed at the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor. Samuel Gompers to-
day addressed the subcommittee Of
the judiciary of the senate in favor Of
the Clayton ant-injunction and con-
tempt bills. He said:
IF ever the time shall come when
government by dynamite shall be at
tempted (let us hope that it never

the theory and policy upon which IS
based government by Injunction !"
Closing his statement, which incud-
ed an assault on employers and manu-
facturers' associations, particularly the
United States Steel corporation and
the National Erecbors' association.
Gompers declared that organized Ia
Dor would not repudiate the iron work
ers and '1eaVe them helpless at the
mercy Of organized capital and insa-
table, uncurbed greed for profits :
Gompers said organized labor felt
keenly the terrible consequences Of
the indianapolis trials
He continued: But what of the
conspiracy OF. organized capital--a con
spiracy to murder the liberty Of toll
ers, to tear from them the means OF
protection by which they have better

spiracy sufficiently dastardly 10 incur
some odium? Should such oonspirat
ors be accorded nothing but honor.
power and respectability?"
Gompers defended the American
Federation as force for bettermenr
Of conditions and resented attacks
upon it since the beginning Of the
dynamite case. He said he was ready
at any time to submit to an in

COMME HE > "a IN BALANSE.
Washington, Jan. 6.-Before the
senate committee on appropriations a
public hearing was begun today on
the advisabiIity Of making provision
in the legislative, executive and judi
cial appropriations for the mainten-
ance Of the commerce court. Leading
importers and shippers from all sec
tions have been invited to tell the
committee what they think of the
commerce court which the democrat
ic house nas ordered abolished on
March 4, decision in which the SEN
ate during the last session concurred.
It is said, however. that sentiment
in the senate has changed consider
ably with relation to this newest ju-
dicial tribunal. and that the vote in
the upper chamber may not be the
same as last session. Friends of the
commerce court have been doing
much missionary work and are said
to have made numerous converts in
the senate Regardless Of any action
the committed III appropriations may
take looking " the abolishment OF
the court, its friends promise a bat
tie royal on the floor Of the senate.
Democratic readers in the house de-
clare they win not recede from their
position in absolute opposition to con-
tinuing the court.
