Will Wait For Turks' Reply.

New York Times 100 years ago today, January 25, 1913:
No Intention on Part of New Government to Renew Hostilities.
    LONDON, Jan. 24.— Several days must elapse before the situation arising from the revolution in Constantinople becomes clear. As far as may be judged, there is no intention on the part of the new Turkish Government to force matters or resume hostilities, if any reasonable compromise with the Balkan allies is possible.
    A dispatch, from Constantinople to-night says that the Council of Ministers sat today to discuss their reply to the note of the powers, and that it is believed this reply, while insisting on the retention of Adrianople by Turkey, will point to Thursday's demonstration as a real indication of the national will.
    The new Government is finding difficulty in filling the post of Foreign Minister. The portfolio has been offered to several Turkish Ambassadors abroad, but all have declined to enter the Cabinet. Until the Ministry is completed by the appointment of a Sheik-ul-Islam and a Foreign Minister it is probable that no definite steps will be taken. Developments in the situation are awaited throughout Europe with the greatest concern in view of the danger of active intervention by Russia.
    The Balkan delegates to the Peace Conference have accepted the advice of the Ambassadors of the powers to await the reply of the new Turkish Government to the Ambassadors' note before deciding on their future course.
    If that is unsatisfactory they will probably present an ultimatum to the Turkish delegates demanding a categorical answer concerning Adrianople and the Aegean Islands. Failing to obtain satisfaction, the armistice will be denounced and hostilities resumed.

Sultan with War Party.
    A dispatch from Constantinople to a news agency says:
    "I learn on high authority that the Young Turk Committee was well aware that the Sultan unwillingly gave way to the resolve of Grand Vizier Kiamil Pasha to cede Adrianople. Young Turk officers who recently were received by the Sultan left him with the impression that he would not object to a sudden change in the Government, and that the same spirit prevailed in the family council the Sultan recently convoked.
    "A pamphlet, obviously inspired, has been distributed here. It says the Young Turk Committee has been the means of liberating the Sultan and saving the Caliph from his endangered position.
    "Enver Bey was most kindly received by the Sultan who, without hesitation accepted Kiamil Pasha's resignation and appointed Young Turk leaders as his Ministers.
    The new Turkish Cabinet has decided to recall the peace delegates from London, according to another dispatch from Constantinople. The Turkish government is said also to have asked its Ambassadors at Vienna and St. Petersburg to return to the Turkish capital.
    Enver Bey, the most spirited leader of the Young Turks, to-day was appointed Chief of the General Staff of the Turkish Army.
    "The blood of Nazim Pasha," said one of the Turkish peace delegates to-day "is on the head of the European powers. Their unfair and precipitate attempt to force Turkey into the unjust surrender of the fortress of Adrianople has borne its inevitable fruit."
    Osman Nizami Pasha, Turkish Ambassador to Germany, who is one of the Ottoman delegates remarked:
    "Now both the Balkan allies and the European powers have had a taste of what Turkey is capable of doing, of what resistance she is able to offer and what sacrifices she is ready to endure."
    He added:
    "Nothing is more dangerous than a wounded lion."
