LONDON', lire. It!. The confer
ence of the Balkan and Turkish en
voys opened hero at noon. Greek
representatives are present, despite
the naval battle raging in the Aegean
Sea.
A Greek cruise: and two torpedo
boata are battling with a Turkish
cruiser and destroyer off the Island
of Tendons, ne.-ir the Dardanelles, ac
cording u a (YmsUintinupIe dispti'h.
It is presumed that the Greeks arc
trying to run the blockade and reach
the Aegean Kea to take part In the
engagement there.
Tmhs Not l'ei:i'i(tel to D.-bty.
The determination of the Hainan
stales not to allow an Ottoman policy
of procrastination is significant oil
account of the form which it has
manifested.
"The Turks are much mistakrn,"
said one of the chief delegate-, "if
they entertain any such idea. Peace
will practically be concluded between
Christmas and New Year's around the
diplomatic table in St. James' Palace
or we will impose it in Constantin
ople at Easter under range of our
cannon and at the point of our bay
onets. Hut then conditions will be
very different. Now we are satisfied
with the minimum demands; then we
will exact the maximum."
Towns Demanded, Garrisons Free.
The main conditions of the allies
include the Immediate surrender of
Scutari, Adrfanople and Junlna, to
the garrisons of which will be grunt
ed full military honors; the evacua
tion of Eastern Europe by Turkey as
far east as Tehatalja to a line which
experts appointed by the contracting
parties will delimit as the spot; the
cession to ureece ot all the Angean
Islands, including Rhodes and 11
others which Italy Is keeping as a
pledge for Turkish fulfillment qf the
treaty of Lausanne; the annexation
of Crete to Greece, and the payment
of n war indemnity and the expenses
sustained on account ot Ottoman
prisoners. In return the allies will
grant complete amnesty to the Mus
sulman population in the territories
they annex for any acts of hostility
during the war; the return of all
prisoners; the recognition of the
spiritual sovereignty of the Sultan
over Ottomans becoming subjects of
the Balkan states, and the' free ad
ministration by the Mussulmans of
their pious faiths in the Balkans.

BUFFALO, X. Y., Dec. 16 One ol
the most sensational trials in the his
tory of this city begins today when
J. Frank Hickey, confessed boy mur
derer, will be arraigned for killing
Joseph Josephs, the seven-year-old
Luckawanna boy, on October 12,
liUl. Mickey Ikib entered a formal
plea of not guilty, and the court has
had difficulty in getting a lawyer to
take his case since he had no funds
to employ a counsel.
First Hickey confessed to the mur
der of the Josephs boy and another
child In New York several years ago,
then he repudiated his confession.
Several murders are attributed to
him, and it is believed that he is in
sane, though lie declares that he Is
not. He was once a prosperous busi
ness man, but drugs are said to have
caused his downfall.
One Mini, Two Personalities.
Hickey t a man of middle age, of
good address and from his appear
ance nobody would suspect him of
being a man of abnormal or criminal
character. He received a cood edu
cation, became a pharmact and then
an expert chemist and fined various
responsible positions to the satisfac
tion of his employers. In his normal
condition a man kind and pleasant in
his ways, he became a fiend filled
with the lust of murder when the
poison of alcohol benumbed bis bet

ality. Then under the control of his evil
ego Hickey became filled with the
insane impulse to kill boys, an im
pulse which he could not resist. Ac
cording to his own confession Hickey
tried to commit murder 12 times, but
ouly twice did he succeed.
Writes Postal Curd to l'ollcc.
Joseph Josephs was the sou of a
merchant of Luckawanna and after
his disappearance his father, believ
ing that the boy had been kidnapped,
instituted a country-wide search. The
boy's dismembered and decomposed J
body was not round until niter me
police of Luckawanna had received
a postal card from Hickey, mailed
from Iloston, and Informing them
that the writer had strangled the boy
and thrown his dismembered body
into a cesspool back of a saloon In
Luckawanna.
It was his mania for writing postal
cards to the police authorities of dif
ferent cities, confessing crimes and
giving information as to whore the
bodies of the victims would be found,
which led to the capture of Hickey.
Hickey said that when under the
influence of liquor he could not re
sist the desire to kill boys, while he
deeply regretted his crimes when in a
