A WWI Diary That Never Was

WWI Diary was to have brought you the whole of World War I as it was reported in the papers of the day, exactly 100 years later. For a year I blogged news leading up to the big war, thinking if there was any real interest regular readers would trickle in. They did not. Count: zero. So I stopped blogging the war news. For students of the time, 1914-1918 editions are available on the Web as thousands of individual articles via a Times service called Spiderbites.

Turks Hopeful Of Peace.

New York Times 100 years ago today, September 4, 1912:
But the Negotiations with Italy Are Temporarily Suspended.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 3. — The Turco-Italian peace "conversations" have been temporarily suspended. The reason given is that some of the points raised by the Italian delegates in their conferences with the Turks in Switzerland require examination by the Porte.
The opinion that an ultimate understanding will be reached is hopefully expressed in official circles here.
