RUSSIA TO STOP THE WAR
Demands of Servla and Qrseoe for
Possession of Occupied Territory
to Cause Trouble. ' ":
London. Having failed in her has
ardous coup, Bulgaria is now showing
herself anxious tor peace. No formal
armistice has vet been arranged, but
it is believed hostilities are virtually
ended. It is feared, however, that
the settlement of peace conditions will
prove a long task, many. new ele
ments having entered to complicate
matters. . . - .' :
Bulgaria's decision not to oppose
Roumanla's occupation of Sllistrle and
the strip of territory she desires, re
moves one difficulty. But other de
velopments, such as the Greek occu
patlon of Kavala, to which Bulgaria is
expected, to offer bitter resistance, are
calculated, to lead to troublesome ne
gotiations, especially as both Servla
and Greece, on the outcome of their
campaign, will be certain to demand
possession of the territory they occu
pied previous to the war.
Russia is already taking steps in
the. Balkan capitals to arange for
a cessation of hostilities.
The British chancellor of the ex
chequer, David Lloyd-George, address

mansion house, refererd to Balkan af
fair. He said the first trouble was
over, and he was hopeful all the pow
er, which had started, so well togeth
er, would be able to effect a lasting
settlement -among these hapless prov
inces. '..'.''.,
As long as the Balkan states did
nothing to upr.et the decisions already
agreed to among the powers, contin
ued the chancellor, it was to be hoped
that no power would find it necessary
to take, any action likely to give rise
to difficulty among the great powers
themselves. ,
