IMPORTANT ADVANCE TOWARD

KAN ALLIES.
SUGGEST NEW BOUNDARY
WITH ApRIANoPLE RETURNED
Offer Said to Make Possible continu-

Makes Demands on Bulgaria to Com.

Neutrality During War.

London, Jan. 6.-An important ad-
toward meeting the demands Of the
Balkan allies. according to the opinion
expressed by the representatives of
Bulgaria in regard to the new Ottoman
proposals as to the future frontier be-
tween Bulgaria and Turkey
Tho Ottoman delegates were expect
ed to present definite project at to-
days conference, suggesting that the
western frontier Of Turkey should fol-
low the course Of the rivers Martha
and Pundje the Turks retaining the
fortress, of Adrianople, but to abandon
Kirk Kilisseh
The allies declared that # this pro-
posal was put forward they would con-
slider it sufficient for the withdrawal!
of their threats to break off negotia-
tions and would continue the discus
sions in London in the hope of obtain
ing further concessions from Turkey.
At the same time they anticipate the
early captiulation Of the heleagured
garrison of Adrianople, and this is cal
culated to alter radically the Ottoman
point Of view. The conversations be-
tween DR.. S. ,Daneff, the chief OF the
Bulgarian peace delegation and M.
Jonschu, the Roumanian minister OF
interior, have assumed a rather serious
character. The Roumanian statesman
insists that Roumania must receive
immediate satisfaction by the grant OF
compensation which das promised IN
return for. her neutrality during the
war Otherwise he says ii will be I'M
possible to control the feelings Of the
Roumanian people, who demand from
their government prompt and adequate
action.
DR.. S. Daneff in reply. repeated the
vague promises already bade by him to
the Roumania government during ms
soiourn at Bucharest before ne came 70
London. NJ Jcnschu insisted on OIL
rect answer and DR.. Daneff thereupon
telegra phed the Bulgarian government
at Sofia for definite instructions on the
subject.

vented by the powers from reaplng the
fruits Of their efforts
