Turkish Cabinet Approves.

New York Times 100 years ago today, December 1, 1912:
Sofia Expects Agreements and Seems Inclined to Yield a Bit.
    CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 30.— The Cabinet has approved the protocol of an armistice, which will be signed at 2 o'clock to-morrow afternoon. An iradé has been issued sanctioning the protocol.
    The armistice will be signed by the Turks on the one hand and the Bulgarians on the other, in behalf of the four allies. It will thus apply not merely to Tchatalja, but to all Turkey in Europe.
    The armistice will last as long as the preliminary negotiations for peace continue.
    It is stipulated that the position of the belligerents shall remain exactly as at the time of signature.
    Up to the present there have been no pourparlers on the subject of the terms of peace.
