TURKEY'S TERMS FOR PEACE.
THE INFLUENCES AT WORK "WITH THE SULTAN. SEVERE CONDITIONS. (Received May 17, 10.30 a.vi.) Londox, lGth May. Advices from Constantinople state that the Porte has replied to the representations of the Foreign Ambassadors urging the Sultan to agree to an immediate armistice with Greece. The terms on which the Porte is willing to grant an armistice are the annexation of Thessaly, payment by Greece of an indemnity of 10,000,000 Turkish pounds, and absolute capitulation of the Greek forces. If Greece is willing to accept the terms proposed, Plenipotentiaries are to meet at Phersala. Later advices show that the military and religious influences compelled the Sultan to insist on exacting severe terms from Greece.
