Turks May Decide On Peace To-day.

New York Times 100 years ago today, January 21, 1913:
Council to be Held in Constantinople — Bulgar Delegates Have Power to Renew War.
PLAGUE IN ADRIANOPLE
Bulgars Have Been Deceived In Regard to the Amount of Food There, Which Is Enough for Months.
Special Cable to The New York Times.
    LONDON, Tuesday, Jan. 21.— Dispatches to The Times from both Constantinople and Vienna confirm the statement as to the brighter prospects of peace cabled to The New York Times last Saturday.
    The majority of the Ottoman Cabinet are in favor of the conclusion of peace, and the council of notables which will meet in Constantinople to-day may advise the acceptance of the allies' terms, particularly as Turkish finances are approaching bankruptcy.
