Turkey Must Accept Quickly.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 17, 1912:
Allies Will Give Her Only 24 Hours, According to Sofia.
    SOFIA, Nov. 16.— The subject of peace negotiations is absorbing the entire attention of the Bulgarian Government for the moment. The Bulgarian cabinet lost no time in communicating the contents of the letter from the Grand Vizier on the subject of an armistice to its allies, and an interchange of views between the Balkan Governments is in active process.
    It is stated that the peace conditions will be formulated with the least possible delay, and presented to Turkey for acceptance or rejection. Unless they are accepted within twenty-four hours after their presentation, hostilities will be continued, as it is not intended by the Bulgarian Generals to permit Turkey to gain valuable time by wrangling over the conditions,
    A prompt acceptance may avert the entry of the Bulgarian troops into Constantinople. It is believed that Bulgaria will not object to Turkey retaining Constantinople and the Dardanelles.
    King Ferdinand of Bulgaria is now at Kirk-Kilisseh, but it is reported that he is preparing to start for Tchatalja. The journey can be made along the railroad from Kirk-Kilisseh, which is now in full operation as far as Tcherkesskeui, the second station from Tchatalja.
