Renew War.
EXPECT FALL OF ADRIANOPLE
Enver eey, Ottoman Military Dicta'
tor, Asserts His Country 10 Ready
to Resume Hostiiities II
Necessary.

London, Jan. 28.-Unless Turkey
makes fresh proposals Of peace by
the end Of this week the allies will
definitely break of the peace Eego-
tiations.
Notice to this effect ia contained in
a note drafted by a committee of the
allies. The note will be examined by
the Balkan delegates and submitted
to the Turkish plenipotentiaries.
Turks Must Take Initiative.
The allies point out in the note that
the Turks have made no advances
toward the resumption OF the peace
sittings since their adjournment on
January 6, and that If the Turks still
desire peace the initiative clearly
must be taken by them.
In the event that Turkey again re-
jects the allies demands and refuses
to submit further proposals. it is not
likely that the war will be resumed
before the middle of February. The
Turkish delegates will have three
days in which to consider the new
note after its presentation, the arms.
tice will then have to be denounced
separately by the governments Of Bull.
garia, Montenegro and Servia, and
four days would then lapse before the
beginning of the fighting.
In view Of this state of affairs dip
lomatists here expect the fall of Adri.
anople to automatically solve the
problem.
All the Balkan delegates will prob
ably leave London before the expira-
ton of the armistice, which will be
four days after the peace conference
is formally broken of.
Turkey Ready to Resume War.
Turkey is ready to resume the war,
according to Enver Bey. the military
dictator Of the Ottoman empire. who
made statement to that effect In
Constantinople
Enver Bey denied that Turkey had
taken the initiative In the fighting
along the Tchatalja lines, but added
that Turkey might fight again very
soon.
I'VE shall not hesitate to resume
war II necessary" he said, land under
no conditions will Turkey recede from
the standpoint that she will not con-
clude dishonorable peace"

Corey as president of the Steel corpo-
ration, also will be called to the stand
by the trusts big array OF lawyers.
The date OF their appearance has not
yet been definitely decided upon.
Gary Gives Probers Room.

liner Browne was held In one OF the
large rooms that constitute the head
quarters of the steel trust on the top
floor OF the Empire building, II Broad
way. Cramped and uncomfortable
quarters for the proceedings hereto
fore have been used by the govern
ment. Judge Gary, learning Of this.
rendered the use Of capacious and
well lighted room on the twentieth
floor of the home OF the huge trust.
A delicate touch was made by Judge
Dickinson on the personal relations
between former President Corey and
Judge Gary, obviously with the view Of
discrediting the rumors that Corey Is
taking advantage OF his opportunity
as government witness to get even"

known in the parlance of steel trust

Corey quickly, In response to the law
yer's question II he looked favorably
upon the action.
Under close questioning, Corey ad-
mitted that the trust could make steel
rails cheaper than any other concern
In the country. He denied that he had
ever said there had been at any time
an international understanding among
steel manufacturers to Keep prices up
or In any other manner to affect the
worlds steel market. He asserted that
the manufacturing costs of the Car
negie Steel company had been re-
duced since it had become part of
