In the early stages of the war the whole station was filled with uniâ€" forms, and the arrival of hospital trains, disgorging their load of mangled humanity, added a grue- some interest. But now Belgrade sta- tion is nearly normal again. The railway trucks are cmptier than us- ual. The ‘scrutiny of passengers and their baggage is stricter. The wait- ing rooms still hear the flaming Red Cross that marked their con- version into dressing rooms, but they are new empty. And round the en- trance to the station the officious guides have begun to \yaylay passen- gers again with offers to show the places of interest. (From a special correspondent in the Balkans of the Manchester Guar- dian.) Early in the war a colleague on the stafi of an important newspaper pointed out that the Orient express {rem Vienna onwards did duty as a barometer of the importance attach- ed to a Balkan crisis. If he was right then Europe takes small intere'st in the renewal of the war. For the ex- press left Vienna on‘the day war was renewed with a very small comple- ment of passengers. There were a few merchants making for Budapest, an Armenian or two heading for Con- stantinople and the usual proportion of Jews. But the special correspond- ents were noticeably absent. And until the train ran into Belgrade sta- tion there was no sign that we were approaching the last act of the war drama.

To be efiective an armistice with a View to peace negotiations mustE fulfil three distinct conditions. One : party must realize that the arbitra-, ment of arms has decided against it; ; the scope of the negotiations must be ’ confined within certain definite limâ€" its; the period of truce must be strictly limited. Not one of these conditionsrwas complied with in De- cember, 1912. The Turkish nation hid not been decisively defeated. the chief portion of its armed strength had. not even been engaged. There was no definition of the scope of the negotiations, and there was no time limit. Had the allies pushed on their military measures ruthlessly instead of giving away to the representa- tions of the Great Powers and to the dread of epidemics, there is small doubt but that they could have. pierced the Tchataldja lines and dicâ€" } -â€"â€"â€"~..._.__. The Bulgarian conceals his feelings with greater skill than the Servian, but Sofia is at present hardly less pacific than Belgrade. The dislocaâ€" tion of the earlier days of .the war has passed away in large measure. Most of the shops are open again, the tramways are running, and fiac‘ res are available. Prices are very lit- tle above normal, But in spite of these outward and inside signs of the renewal of ordinary conditions of life the capital still suflers daily, for business is almost at a stand- still. And in the country it is the same as in Servia. The time for ploughing and sewing is very close, and the country is denuded of men and even of boys. The peasant of the Balkan State live from hand to mouth. He has no reserves collected, and the loss of a year’s. crops means not merely ruin but starvation to him. Reliable information puts the loss in men capable of work already at 50,000 for Bulgaria alone. It were to cease tomorrow this in it- self would mean a heaVy handicap to this young state. war , from ten to twenty. But that is a quite inconsiderable number. They speak of short rations, but, on the other hand, the prices which they say are current for food, are not ab- normally high. The Bulgarian stafl seems to hope that the Bulgarian stafl will be reduced within three weeks. On the other hand, the sortie by the Turks on the 8th February cost the Bulgarians some 1,600 men, so that the fighting qualities of the defenders seem to be well maintain- ed. The bombardment seems to have had astonishingly little efiect on the defences, and the loss of life in the town is fairly certain to be tangible. For, whatever its moral eflects, ar- tillery fire into a town has never yet destroyed much human life. On the whole there seems no reason why Ad- rianople should not make good its defence for many more weeks. The military situation can be summed up in a sentence. The Al- ‘lies have shot their bolt, the Turk has not, now any more than he has 'at any period, the bow with which {to shoot the bolt that is still in his but by the treaty and by ethnogra- phical claim it goes to Bulgaria. Al- esslo and Durazzo seem unattainable. Salokika is at best a chance. What- ever the eventful terms of peace be- tween the Allies as a whole and Tur- key, there is small doubt but that the settlement among the allies them- selves will leave behind it many a bone of contention for Servian di- plomacy.

In Saturday’s issue of the Post a brief reference was made to the pre- sentation of a grandfather’s clock by the Board of Education to Mr. Thos. Stewart, the retiring chairman, on Friday evening. The members of a he Board were the guests of Mr. J. D. Flavelle at a dinner at his residence, and the following address accompan- ied the presentition; To Mr. Thos. Stewart, Equâ€" Sir,â€"Your colleagues on the board of education for the town of Lindsay are exceedingly sorry that you could not be prevailed on to continue as their chairman, a position for which you were eminently fitted and which you have filled with great credit to yourself, acceptance to the board and benefit to the cause of education. The military situation can be summed up in a sentence. The Al- lies have shot their bolt, the Turk has not, now any more than he has at any period, the bow with which to shoot the bolt that is still in his quiver. And so the result is stalem- ate. What will be the issue? Prop- hecy is dangerous, but in all proba- bilitv the war will drag on until Ad- rianople falls, and then each side will be willing to accept the mediation of the Great Powers. iLLUMlNATED ADDRESS WAS PRESENTED in the further appeal to arms. But though she has succeeded in doing this, the process has left a sore in both Servian and Greek ‘amous pro- pre’ which will not tend to the fu- ture friendlineSS of the allied States.
