TREATY OF LONDON 1881.
p.e. Wherein the Neutrality of Belgium Was

The treaty by which the present
kingdom of Belgium was created and
Its neutrality guaranteed was signed

constituted Belgium and Holland one

But the Belgians were never content 10

diate and be quick about II. They did
so and an armistice was signed be-
tween Bulgaria, Serbia and Montene-
gro on one side and Turkey on the
other on December 3.
Greece refused to sign any armistice
while Janina, the Albanian capital, re-
manned in Turkish hands, and contin-
ued to attack that city. The powers
hurriedly got together in peace CON
ference in London. There was no
coming to terms with the Turk, and on
February 3, 1913, hostilities were re-
sumed The Greeks captured Janina'
and the Bulgarinns drove In the Tcha-
taIja line. A Bulgarian and Serbian
army took Adrianople with the Turk
isb commander and 10000 prisoners.
Scutari in Albania was besieged by Il
Monteneprin and Serbian army, and
Greek men-of-war in the Adriatic were
cooperating with the troops.
Powers Could Not Agree.
The mowers were frantic and could
not agree among themselves. But on
April 10, 1913, another armistice was
signed, and on May 80 the belligerents
signed Mt London treaty OF peace
with Turkey. By this treaty Turkey
surrendered to the Balkan allies the
island of Crete and all territory on
the European mainland west of the
Enos-Midia line, and left the adjust
ment of the Albanian frontiers and the
disposal of the Aegean islands to the
powers, which meant that Turkey gave
up all her European possessions ex-
cept Constantinople and the country
Immediately back of 1t.
But the ink on the treaty was not
dry when the Balkan states began
to quarrel with each other over the
spoils.
Thirty days after the treaty of Lon
don had been signed they were all at
1t again, with Roumania now playing
a part. The Bulgarinns attacked the
Greeks In the Panghaion district and
fought three days battle with the
Serbians, ending on July 80.
Bulgaria Declares War.
Three days later Bulgaria declared
war against Greece and Serbia, and
Montenegro declared war upon Bulga-
ria. Roumanin declared war against
Bulgaria on July 10, and Turkey at
the same time sent an army forth and
captured Adrianople without trouble
The Bulgarians stubbornly resisted
the advance of the Greek army north
but King Constantine pressed OF
toward Sofia. The Montenegrins ant
Serbs hurled back the Bulgarians ir
the west, and King Ferdinand suec

And now n new arrangement of tn,

all in revolt. The Gar, alarmed at
what he considered the spread of n
revolutionary spirit, called upon the
other powers to interfere and prom
ised contingent of 10000 troops.
Prussia massed her troops on her west
ern frontier and France announced
that any movement of Prussian troops
into Belgium would be met by n SIM
liar movement on the part of the
French. A conference of the five great
powers was then sitting In London to
settle the question OF Greece. France
proposed that the Belgian question be
submitted to the conference. The
Polish insurrection. which now broke
out, gave the Czar all he could attend
to Mt home, Austria was harassed by
the Italian question and PRUSSIA was
fully occupied in guarding her eastern
frontiers. So England and France
were allowed to have their way, which
was the way of Belgian independence.
Failed to Settle Trouble.
The congress of London issued sew
eral protocols intended to settle mat
ters but failed to do so. One STUN
bling block was Luxembourg which Hol-
land refused to give up and Belgium
claimed; deputies from that duchy sit
ting In the new national assembly
Prince Leopold of Coburg was offered
the Belgian crown but refused to ac-
cept it until matters were settled more
to the liking of the BelgIans. The
Dutch refused to evacuate Belgium
and a French army marched in, the
Dutch retiring before 1t.
On November 10, 1881, the represen-
tatives of the great powers and Bel
gium signed the treaty of London. BY
this instrument n part of Luxembourg
was given to Holland and the rest left
in the Belgian hands professionally"
Belgium, 1t may be remarked, con-
tinued to hold the duchy until 1899
The province of Limburg was given to
Holland and the boundaries of Belgium
established practically as they are to-
day. The king of the Belglans was
recognized and the neutrality of the
kingdom solemnly guaranteed.
The Gar would not ratify this
treaty, although his ENJOYS had signed
1t. until the next May, when he did so.
But now King William of Holland
baked. He refused to evacuate Ant
werp, which was besieged and taken
by the French thereupon. 1t was not
until 1880 that King William decided
to accept fate. Having done so he
abdicated and the Belgian question
was settled to reappear In more
tragic form SO years later.

The boundaries which those chronic
disturbers of the peace, the Balkan
states. had before the recent world
war We're established to them by the
treaty of Bucharest signed at the
Roumanian capital on August g, 1913,
by representatives of the said states
and Greece. That treaty closed two
wars, practically, one in which the Bal
kan states were united in fighting Tur-
key and one in which they were hight
ing among themselves. BY 1910 the
Bulgar and Greek bands in Macedonia,
which had been quite as likely to mas
sacre each other as to massacre the
Turks. had got together for the pur-
pose of devOting all their efforts
against the common enemy. Then
trouble broke out in Albania and the
Serbians sent their irregulars to help
the Albanians against the Turks.
1t was the same old story of the Bal
kans being "aflame" again. In March
of 1912 Greece, Bulgaria, Montenegro
and Serbia came to an understanding,
agreeing to bury their mutual animosi-
ties temporarily and combine against
the Turk. ROumania stood aloof. The

The great powers began to "diplo-

and Austria declared that the status
quo in the Balkans must be main
tanned, and Austria mobilized her
army. But the wild nations of the
Balkans had got out of hand, and
little Montenegro. on October s, 1912,
declared war against Turkey. On Oc-
tober II Bulgaria, Greece and Serbia
issued joint declaration to the same
effect. A Bulgarian army of 100000
men occupied Mustapha Pasha on Oc-
tober 10, Kirk-Killsseh on the oath and
invested Adrianople on the 9th. Two
days later was fought the sangulnary
battle of Lule Burgas, the chief battle
of the war, with front of % miles.
In this battle the Turks lost $4,000
