The agreement was arrived at only after another exhibition of the utter helplessness of Bulgaria to face her King of enimies. ‘Wednesday the discussions in the peace conference threatened to become intermingable, but M. Majoresco, the Rumanian premier and president of the conferemce, clinched matters by threatening that unless Bulgaria ac- cepted the modified frontier proposed by the allles Rumania’s army weuld occupy Sofla next Saturday. This threat had the desired effect and an agreement was arrived at today after numercus _private consulations be- tween the delegates and a four hours' sitting of the conference. The New Frontier. The new frontier as agreed to starts at a point on the old frontier west of the Struma river, following the water- thed to west of the town of Strum- nitza, thence runs almost through the Struma valley to the Belesh mountains end thence easierly ~ in almost a straight line to the Mesta river, thus leaving the town of Strumnitza, the port Jf Lagos and Kanthi to Bulgaria and the port of Kavala to Greece. Ti-o new frontier is a deep disappointment to the Bulgarians who still nurse hopes for ite eventual revision by the powers. It is believed that an agreement for the demobilization of the various armies will be signed tomorrow. The whole news that peace lad been arranged caused great rejoicings here. Speculating on Another War. London, Aug. 6—The second Balkan peaco conferemco baving concluded peace on a basis of compromise which is unsatisfactory to all the states con- cerned, except possibly Rumania, the question is being asked how soon a third Balkan war will brewk out. Bulgaria has obtalned under the agreement arrfved at in Bucharest to- day a comsiderable of porthern Mace= doma—much more than the allles were at first inclined to give—and also about, sixty miles of the seaboard which will enable ber to. bulld her projected railway from Philippopolis to the Acgean. Bulgaria, however deeply re- sents being deprived of Kavala, a port on Kavala Bay, which goes to Greece under the agreement. Also she is con< fronted with the task of expeiling the Turks from Adrianople, it being clear that the powgrs will do nothing in this direction. Bulgaria will seek to n- troduce in the peace proctocols to be signed at Bucharest tomorrow a res- ervation practically appealing to the European powers for a subsequent re- ¥ision of the peace treaty. The details of the new frontler line are still unknown but apparently the of the disputed country between. 1y courses of the Vardar and Struma Rivers goes to Servia, includ- ing Ovchepolye, Veles, Jsiip and Kotch- ana, while Demirhissar, Seres, Drama, and Kavala fall to Greece.
