CONFERENCE DOES

London. Jan. 9.-Adrianople will
capitulate in the opinion Of the Bal
kan p.enipotentiaries, within a few
days, either directly to the besieg-
ing forces or through European
pressure.
Meanwhile the alnbassadorial con-
ference is doing little, hoping that
the Adrianople difficulty vii solve
itself. in some manner and thus
make interference by the powers UNI
necessary. Moreover the action OF
the ambassadors is bampered by the
previous agreement that they must
be unanimous in any decision re-
curing active Interference.
Should the fall OF Adrianople still
be delayed, now that the conference
is suspended, it might become I'M
perative for Europe to intervene:
otherwise Europe would lose the
prestige emitting her TO dictate her

ating an autonomous Albania and
partitioning the AEGEAN Islands.
One suggestion Is that, failing a
better solution, Adrianople might be
ceded to the Powers. who could

with the honors OF war and guaran-
teeing other conditions, as the res
eryation of religious and property
rights to the Turks and the creation
of certain courts for the trial OF civil
suits arising between the mussul-
mans.
Some Of those among the advanced
section of the allied delegates are OF
the opinion that now that they have
paved the way for the expulsion OF
Turkey from Europe the Powers

The death at the ripe age of eighty

land removes the noble woman who
was recognized in the literary world
as Vermont's most gifted poetess. If
she had been less a poet, she might
have become more famous as an au-

for in her caller life she wrote a mum
Der of works Of fiction that won wide
spread recognition for her as a bril-

will establish an extensive plant for
the grinding and marketing of marble
dust in large quantities to the build
Ing trade. The plant will hc expected
to turn out $50 barrels of marble dust
a day at the outset and will employ
$50 men.
1t is well known fact that in many
sections of Vermont the marble de-
posts are useless for purposes OF
quarrying on account of numerous
seams and other defects, but there
would seem to be no good reason VIII
such deposits should not be available
for the manufacture of marble dust.
