Greco-Bulgar Friction.

New York Times 100 years ago today, May 12, 1913:
Claims of the Two Allies Said to be Irreconcilable.
    LONDON, May 11.— The Turkish delegates arrived in London to-day for the peace conference.
    Dispatches from Sofia indicate that the Greek Government is trying to delay the conclusion of peace by refusing to accept the terms of a draft of the treaty drawn up by the Ambassadorial conference. The Bulgarian Government, however, has notified Greece of its determination to permit no further delay in the signing of the peace treaty.
    Friction between Bulgaria and Greece still menaces the situation. The mixed commission appointed by the two Governments with the object of reconciling the rival claims over the disputed towns and territories in Macedonia has failed to reach an agreement. The two sets of representatives have arrived at absolutely opposite and irreconcilable conclusions.
