The report Of Postmaster Homer War
rem shows that during the first week
In which the new system was In opera
ton 1851 packages were handled In
the Detroit postoflice. That virtually
was five days business, for none OF
The postoftices did much business
either New Years day or Sunday, Jan.
8. The Detroit postofiice during the
first week handled four times the num-
her OF packages handled by Grand
Rapids, the next highest city.
Detroit merchants did not use the
parcel post extensively for delivery

Der amounted to $3.50. The entire
postal receipts on the parcel post
business originating in the Detroit
office during that period amounted to
x2.2s0.79. There were 295 insured pack

BALKANS WAR MAY
Be RESUMED
IN REPLY TO POWERS
STILL FLATLY REFUSES TO
GIVE UP ADRIANoPLE.
ALLIED POWERS PROPOSE TO
SEND DEFINITE ULTIMATUM.
Would Allow Ottomans Two to Three
Days for Final Decision as to
Their Terms of Peace.

Turkeys decision, as indicated by
dispatches from Constantinople, re-
fusing to cede Adrianople and the Ae-
gean islands, 1t Is believed will lead
to the resumption of hostilities with
in a week.
The Balkan allies, after consider
ing the whole situation among them
selves decided to wait until the mid
die OF next week for the answer or
the Porte to the joint note of the pow
ers, and If then the reply was not
received or was unsatisfactory, to adj
dress communication to the Turk
ish delegation in the form Of a definite
ultimatum, allowing Turkey 4s to "
hours for a final decision.
Should Turkey at that time be una
BILE or unwilling to come to the allies
terms, the Balkan plenipotentiaries de-
cided that a rupture OF the peace
conference was inevitable. Sofia, Bel
grade and Cettinje would denounce
the armistice and four days later the
war would be resumed.
All Support Bulgaria.
The allies do not admit, or to be
more exact, do not see the POSSIBLE
ity of such proposals from Turkey or
the powers as would allow of re-
sumption of negotiations, unless the
Porte openly declared its readiness to
give up Adrianople. So far, the in
structions of the Bulgarian delegates
do not admit OF a discussion Of pro-
posal that Turkey retain Adrianople,
even dismantling the Notifications or
conditions of peace leaving the ques-
ton of Adrianople to be disposed OF
last.
Servia, Montenegro and Greece all
support Bulgaria in this attitude. The
success OF Bulgaria would mean an
easier accomplishment of their wishes,
especially in the case of Greece which
in the conquest of Adrianople by Bull
garia sees the Greek occupation OF
Saloniki less likely to be disputed. In
addition, the allies feel that the zine
will never be more favorable for them
to act.
Turk Army in Poor Shape.
Il is evident that the Turkish re-
sources are not in the best of con-
dition, while on the other hand the
allies, as the result OF their long pre-
paration, are nerved to high pitch.
The seven weeks armistice has re-
stored their armies and they have
been gathering their forces at the in
dependent points.
Throughout all the Balkan states, ac-
cording 10 the plenipotentiaries in Lon
don, from the largest towns TO the
humblest hamlets only one cry goes
up:
War to the bitter end-until our
eternal enemy is driven out of Eu-
rope forever"
