Holds Oat for .Adrianople, but Surrenders Other
Territory at the Peace Conference
A despatch fro/it London says
After protracted diplomatic skirm-
ishing the Turks finally capitulat-
ed to a majority of the demands of
the Balkan allies at Wednesday's
session of the peace conference in
St. James' Palace. Through R2chad
Pasha they agreed to cede practi-
cally the whole of the Ottomae Em-
pire's European dominions except
Adrianople and the territory be-
tween it and C_ nsiantlnople to
their victorious, but traditionally
despised, neighbors.
The terms the Turkish delegates
presented to the ..•onference as a
counter -proposal to the demands of
the allies were:-
1st-The
ere:--
lst--The rectification of the Tur-
co -Bulgarian frontier by :caking
the boundary west of the line now.
occupied by the troops of the allies
in the Vilayet of Adrianople.
2nd -The clues:eon of the status
cif Adrianople. to be settled by Tur-
key and Bulgaria direct.
3rd -The cessio:i of the remainder.
'of European Turkey, including Ja-
nina and Scutari, re the allies.
I 4th -The Albanian and Cretan
!questions to be solved by the pow-
ers.
5th -The Aegean Islands to re -
mein Turkish.
The announcement of tee terms
was wrung from the Ottoman dele-
gates with the greatest difficulty.
They came only after Bechtel Pasha
had reiterated Turkey's desire to
shift the responsibility for adjudi-
cating all the vital questions to the
great powers and the representa-
tives of the allies had registe.el
their unchangeable objections to
such a course, and plainly had given
the Turks to understand that the
failure of the Ottoman delegates to
embark upon serious negotiations
would mean a resumption of hostili-
ties in South -Eastern Europe. •

A despatch from Ottawa says
The newest thing in trade trouble

Representations made to the Gov
element indicate that the adven

isting circumstances is viewed wit

The egg trade across the horde
appears to be in a somewhat disor
ganized condition, seemingly du
to the efforts of housekeepers

prices, The situation is abnormal
Eggs are said to be selling in sev
eral cities close to the border
prices far below what it cost

: this side of the line have a, winter's
s supply, procured at prices several
e cents higher than those now being
g, charged at the border.
n The suggestion has been made
• .that the dumping duty in the Calla-
- than tariff be applied to the Ameri•
t can egg, orthat the Canadian and
- American egg tariffs be ternporar-
la ily equalized, the Canadian duty
being two cents lower. It does not
1' appear that the importation of the

e even if such a course were thought
' desirable.

Dr. Alexis Carrel, of the Roe?kefei'er Instii;ute,
Announces a Great Scientific Discovery
A despatch from New York rays:
Dr. Alexis Carrel of the Rockefeller
Institute for Medical Research, who
received the Nobel Prize for medi-
eine in 1912, is the first es announce
a great, scientific discovery in 1913.
In the current issue of the Journal
of Experimental Medicine, the offi-
cial organ of the Rockefeller Insti-
tute, he predicts, as the result of a
:series of a ip.eriments which have
been in prog:css since 1907, thelpos-
sibnlity of healing a cutaneous
wound in less than a day, and the
repair of a broken leg in four days.
Although Dr. Carrel does not men-
tion it in his preliminary report,
the assertion is also made that the
reparative proems may become ap-
plicable not only in cases where the
tissues have been divided, as in
.knife wounds, but in oases where
large areas of tissue have been de-
stroyed in various parts of the body
by disease.
s eas
e. .
Carrel's latest discovery is
the result cf speculation as to the
anner in which cells multiply and
s effect the growth of tissues.
If it were possible, he argued, to be-
come possess.d of this knowledge it
ought to be possible also to pro-
mote this proliteration of cells, and
the consequent growth of connec-
tive tissue by artificial m.ea.ns. His
important discovery is almost eon-
cealed beneath this innocuous cap-
tion, "Art.ficial Activation of the
Growth in Vitro of Connective Tis-
sue." -
A'dod by keowledgc of the fact
that the growth of the body is de-
pendent in many respects on the
more or less mysterious activities of
some of the ductile glands -the
thyroids for instance -be applied a
mixture of thyroid extract and
macerated portions of other organs
of the body to cutaneous wounds.
The results were wonderful, almost
miraculous, 'They bear out the
seililtist's statement that "if the
rote of the reparation of tissues
were activated ten times only,a
cutaneous wound would heal in less
than twenty-four hours, and a frac-
hire of the leg would be cured in
four days."
