The preliminaries of peace between Turkey and Greece were signed last Saturday afternoon; that Greece comes out of the war a sadder and (we hope) wiser nation goes without saying. SI pays to Turkey a war indemnity of £4,000,000 and loses the village of Kontzofliani, whence the Greek insurgents made id into Macedonia which was the te cause of the outbreak of war. Turkey is to retain Vole and Larissa as guarantee for the payment of the Indemnity and the strategical delineation of the frontier includes all passes into Thessaly. Onerous terms truly, but things would have been far worse had it not been for the firm stand made by Lord Salisbury, to whom Greece owes it that she did not lose Thessaly altogether.
