The peace negotiations have not made very much progress during the past
week.

Turkey has announced to the Powers that she holds that Thessaly belongs
to her by right of conquest, and she is not willing to give it up.

But the Powers are determined to allow only a sum of money as a war
indemnity, and a rearrangement of the frontier whereby Turkey will gain
certain strategic points.

The Sultan has again asked the Emperor of Germany to help him to secure
Thessaly, but William has declined to interfere in the matter, and has
advised the Sultan to obey the wishes of the Powers.

The Czar of Russia has also written to the Sultan, urging him to accept
the conditions offered, and not delay the negotiations by making demands
on Greece which it will be impossible for her to accept.
