London, Jan. 31.-The Balkan allies and the Turks are making active preparations to resume hostilities in southeastern Europe.
 The delegates of the allies to the peace conference here are saying fare well and packing their baggage pre- paratory to departing from London. A news agency despatch received here today from Constantinopie reported that the Turkish delegates had been ordered home, but the command has not yet been received here It seems that only the good offices of the pow CTS can avert a further resort to arms, but thus far these apparently have failed.
 Both Sides Accused of Biuffing.
 Even at this late hour each side to the dispute is accusing the other of bluffing. The Turks declare that in their note to the powers Thursday the allies were given greater concessions gotiations than they had expected to be made them at the commencement of the peace negotiations. The allies prac- ticaliy admit this. but they say what would have been acceptable even fortnight ago cannot now be enter tained and that the Turkish game obviously is to lead them by the nose for months, counting the allies financial exhaustion and hoping that combinations will arise to favor Fur key.

 Comparison of Vatican and Adrianople.
 A comparison between the vatican and the Mussulmans' holy shrines in Adrianople, Dr. Danef said, was in admissible. The Italians, he declared. made concessions to the papacy after they had taken possession of Rome In case Adrianople was vanQuished,Wh would try to impose conditions? he asked. In addition. Dr. Daneff contin ued, the vatican was the residence or the pope and contained the tombs of apostles and former popes. while Adri- anople, with the exception of it's mosques had nothing absolutely vital to the Mussulman people. Dr. Danef repeated that nothing could stop re- opening of the war except the uncon- ditional surrender of Adrianople and the Aegean Islands.
