"The Big Store" TURKISH EMPIRE iS SWAYING TO ITS FALL LONDON, Jan. 30.----T.nkev. If she persists in refusal of our just de mands for cession of the territory our swords have conquered, as well as of Adriunople and the Aegean islands, may ilnd her European fron tier, not nt Rodosto and Midla, hut at the Itospliorus and the Dardan elles." This was the declaration here to day of a diplomat prominent In the councils of the Balkan allies when asked what the effect of the Turkish refusal to yield more than a half of Adrlanople to her foes would be. "The allies," this official contin ued, have won practically all of Tur-key-in-Europe. Adrlanople must fall within a few days before our combined assaults. The internecine i st rife raging among the Turks be hind the lines of Tchatalja must show plainly to Shafket Pasha and his as sistants In Constantinople that resis tance there would be hopeless. if the war really re-opens and there Is the gravest probability that it will -there can hardly bo a doubt In the mind of any Impartial observer that the tottering Turkish empire in Europe must finally be extinguish ed." Diplomats hero today generally agree with the freely expressed opin ions of the Balkan envoys that hos tilities before Tchatalja will be commenced in earnest at once. Thev declare that the evident disruption fif the Turkish forces tb-re will give the Bulgarians an opportunity for .Immediate and probably successfiil attack and military observers gener ally look for a determined advann' by the allied troops upon Constant inople. Tli" Balkan envoy:!, while contin uing their preparations for depar ture 'from London, affect to believe Turkey Is still talking for effect, ami that further concessions are likely The Turkish envoys will remain lorn for a time to receive any further communications from their govern ment. It Is believed from Hie ac tions of the Balkan envoys rather than from their spoken admission:, that they do not really expect t(, v.lu their point by diplomacy but Mint tie y are coMimed that m,!,- ) y,i t and bayonet will finally convhiie the Turk that his day s.s a pov.er In Europe is past.
