Turks And Bulgars Hopeful Of Peace.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 29, 1912:
Report in Constantinople That the Bulgars Have Withdrawn Their Claim to Adrianople.
MANY ARRESTS IN SALONIKA
Five Hundred Turkish Officers Deported to Greece Owing to Intrigues and Breaking of Paroles.
    SOFIA, Nov. 28.— Two meetings of the peace delegates were held at Bagehakeui to-day, and, according to Premier Guechoff, the pourparlers are progressing satisfactorily.
    In Government circles it is believed that unless unforeseen difficulties arise an armistice will be concluded in two days.
    Yesterday's session was a very prolonged one, the delegates sitting until late at night.
    A letter received to-day from the front says that there has not yet been any real assault by the Bulgarian besiegers on the fortress of Adrianople. The forts, it says, have been shelled and some of them have been captured by the allied Servians and Bulgarians, who suffered heavy loss.
    On one occasion a Turkish fort was captured, but shortly afterward the allies were compelled to evacuate it owing to the heavy fire concentrated on it by the Turkish guns.
    On another occasion an entire Bulgarian battalion was destroyed by the explosion of a land mine, which was fired by the Ottoman defenders.
