THE BALKANS.
SOME" PROGRESS HAS BEEN. MADE. By Telegraph. — Press Association. — Copyright LONDON, 20th November. In his speech at Scarborough, Sir Edward Grey, Secretary for Foreign Affairs, referring to the Balkan situation, said he trusted that the conference of the Powers would dispose of the difficulties there; "but," he said, "you cannot force c a conference and have a satisfactory result." He admitted that progress had been slow, and now it was desirable that time should not be wasted. Some progress had been made this week, because Turkey was assured of sympathy and fair play in the Councils of Europe. Further difficulties remained to be overcome, but the approach of the winter season, which was unfavourable to warlike action in the Balkans, was favourable to the progress of the councils.
