LONDON, Dec. 21.—The expedition
with which the Turkish government
has decided upon counter peace pro-
posals lead to the assumption that they
will be equally wide from what are
likely to be the eventual terms of the
peace treaty as were the demands of
the allies and that there still is a pro-
longd process of bargaining to be gone
through before the conference is ended
Austria’s failure to demobllize, how-
ever. is a greater source of disquietude
to all concerned than the task of ar-
ranging peace Thia la more especial-
ly tne case with the Montenegrin dele-
gatee who today were considerably rv
cited over the situation, now that Aus-
trig has obtained what she wants front

its batteries on Mount Lowen com-
mands the gulf.
M. Miyuskovitch has declared to all
ambassadors that Montenegro would
rather be exterminated than yield
Lowehen or renounce Scutari, he said
"It naturally is absurd, to speak of
declaring war against Austria, but if
Vienna had any such pretentions she
would have to wipe out every soul in
Montenegro. I myself would he there,
sword in hand, and I would aell my
life dearly.’’
Moreover. It is not believed that Rua
sia would ever permit the annihilation
of the small kingdom which for cen-
turfes has represented the Siav strong-
hold on the Adriatic shores and in this
connection additional attention is
drawn to the fact that Russia is tak
ing means to prevent ner con<lnued

known.
Several of the peace delegatee left

mained spent the day quietly at their
