ter months of diplomatic strife for
better termi Turkey surrendered this
evening and the < ?ttoman and Italian
plenipotentiaries signed the protocol of
a peace treaty which ends tod war be?
tween Italy and Turkey, and, inci?
dentally, relieves the ottoman empire
of a crushing handicap lr the forth?
coming struggle in the Balkans,
The precise terms will not be avail?
able until a definite treaty is signed
at the end of the week, probably at
Lausanne. Their tenor, however, is
well known. The treaty will provide
for absolute sovereignty of Italy in
Libya Without formal reco^nklon
there of Italy by Turkey; free exer?
cise of religions authority by the
khalif; Turkey to withdraw her regu?
lar troops from Libya; Italy to pay
an idemnity equivalent to Libya's con?
tribution to the Ottoman treasury;
restitution of the captured islands to
Turkey. with guarantees for the
Christian people; no idomnity paya?
ble by either side towaru the cost of
war, and re-esiabllshment of firmer
diplomatic and commercial relations.
During the last week there has
been doubt to whether the war, which
but. lasted for more than a year,

i Italy's time limit for the conclusion
