NEWS OF THE WEEK.
THE news from the Near East when we write on Thursday is appreciably better. Sir Charles Harington has persuaded the Generals representing the Angora Turks and the Greeks to join with him, the French representative, General C"harpy, and the Italian representative, General Monbelli, in a conference at Mudania. The latest news which has reached us is to the effect that the Conference has opened harmoniously and with good hopes of success. It is said that the Turks have accepted the Allied Note "in principle." It is evident thafthe centre of anxiety has shifted from Chanak to Thrace. The principal issue seems to be whether the Greek troops shall be removed from Thrace as a preliminary to the Peace Conference proposed in the Allied Note. In the meantime it is satisfactory to know that Allied Commissioners have gone to Thrace. We will now summarize the chief events in their proper order.
