Constantinople, Feb. 26.-The mis-
sion to London of Ibrapim Hakd Pas
ha on the behalf Of the Ottoman gov
ernment has failed. His object was
to persuade the powers to support
the claim of Turkey to the retention
Of Adrianople He was, however,
unable to prevail on the powers to
accept the Porte's note as basis for
fresh peace negotiations, and he mad
no authority to go beyond the propos-
ais contained in that document
Although some members of the
Turkish cabinet are in favor Of peace,
the war element shows no tendency
to weaken its attitude Military op-
erations are still confined to skir-
mishes at various points along the
front. Fighting on any extended
scale is improbable for the present,
owing to the inclemency Of the
