Peace Conference Crisis Comes To-Day.

New York Times 100 years ago today, December 23, 1912:
Negotiations Will Continue if Turks Waive Demand for Revictualing of Adrianople.
ACTION BY POWERS LIKELY
United States Again Spoken Of as a Possible Mediator In Case of a Rupture in the Negotiations.
By Marconi Transatlantic Wireless Telegraph to The New York Times.
    LONDON, Monday, Dec. 23.— In reference to the growing belief that the powers will interpose in order to prevent a rupture of the peace conference there is much speculation regarding which nation is likely to take the initiative.
    In Vienna it is stated that Great Britain may make a move in this direction. Premier PoincarĂ©'s speeches in the French Chamber, however, seem to indicate that France may adopt this course, if the necessity arises, while Dr. Dillon, writing in The Daily Telegraph, says arbitration has been proposed privately, and that the United States has been spoken of in this connection.
