&5, 900, 900 American
Damages IN Mexico

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2O--With the
return of American refugees to heir
wrecked homes in Mexico City today.
this country faced the difficult task OF
adjudicating claims for damages that
promise 10 reach between $4,000, 900
and S7o,OO0,OO0 in the capital city
alone.
How great was the loss to Ameri-
cans during the 10 days battle, can
only be guessed. Todays dispatch
containing the following may be ac-
cepted, however. as an index OF the
extent OF the damage:
Many found their residences entire
ly wrecked; scarcely a home that was
not damaged by rifle shot and nearly
all have been looted by mobs OF SOL
diers.
Ambassador Wilson has begun IN
vestigations into claims presented by
Americans. These will be submitted
TO the state department and by them
to the Mexican government.
Despite comparative calm that
reigned over Mexico early today, the
army and navy still remained ready
for Intervention.
How many millions for defense the
United States has spent since the first
call for preparation went out. is today
merely matter OF conjecture Thai
II will reach into the millions Is fully
admitted. When a group OF American
refugees returned sadly to their ruin
ed homes in Mexico City today they
were greeted with loud cries OF ''vive
Los Americanos." A week ago an
anti-American sentiment was greatly
feared there.
The Mexican situation is very
much better" said Secretary OF the
Navy Meyer today. And IL promises
made to this government by the vic
torfous rebels are carried out, pacih-
cation OF Mexico will be complete.
However, we are not relaxing
from our attitude OF preparedness
The battleships will remain In Mexi-
can waters and the marines will re-
main in Cuba until the last storm
cloud has swept over the horizon"
Sherburn G. Hopkins, expert on In
ternaticnal law, who has acted as
legal adviser in the United States for
Madero ever since the revolution
which overthrow Diaz, was bitter to-
day In his condemnation OF the new
Mexican regime. He predicted that

afternoon. The callers passed into
the White House grounds at the east
gate, and into the White House

public only once a year. They were
carefully but inconspicuously exam

TURKS AGREE TO PEACE TERMS
WILL GIVE UP NEARLY ALL OF
EUROPEAN DOMINION.
Ask to Retain AdrianopIe and Terri
tory Between 1t and CONSTANT
nople-Agreement Forced.

London.-After their protracted dip
lomatic skirmishing. the Turks finally
capitulated to the demands of the Bal
kan allies at the session of the peace
conference in st. James palace.
Through Rechad Pasha they agreed
to cede practically the whole of the
Ottoman empires European domin-
ions, except Adrianople and the ter
ritory between it and Constantinople,
to their victorious but additionally
despised neighbors.
The terms the Turkish delegates
presented to the conference as a
counter proposal to the demands of
the allies were:
First-The rectifcation of the
Turko-Bulgarian frontier by making
the boundary west of the line now
occupied by the troops of the allies
in the vilayet of Adrianople.
Second-The question of the status
Of Adrianople to be settled by Turkey
and Bulgaria direct.
Third-The cession of the remain
der of European Turkey, including
Janina and Scutari, to the allies.
Fourth-The Albanian and Cretan
questions to be solved by the powers.
Fifth-The Aegean islands to re-
main Turkish.
The announcement of these terms
was wrung from the Ottoman dele
gates with the greatest difficulty
They came only after Rechad Pasha
had reiterated Turkeys desire to
shift the responsibility fer adjudicat-
, ing all the vital questions to the pow
ers and the representatives of the al
lies had registered their unchange-
able objections to such a course and
plainly had given the Turks to un-
derstand that the failure of the Otto
man delegates to embark upon serious
negotiations would mean a resump-
ton of hostilities in southeastern
Europe.
