The bat- tle extended along the lino from Lule Burgas eastward to Serai. The Turkish front was over 31 miles long. The Turkish forces greatly outnumbered the Bulgarians, the latter not exceeding 150,000, many having been left investing Adrian- ople. The eastern wing of the Turkish array, at Viza, was able to main- tain, its ground atfirst against the Bulgarian troops, but could gain iio suogess, and; after three days' fighting, fled, The Bulgarian ,army Vigorously pursued the Turks, who retreated in disorder and panic on Serai and Tchorlu. On Thursday they were driven from this stand. l'it'any grins and large quantities of ammunition have been : captured, ,ivali, near Lule Burgas, and Maras have been burned, All the Christian inhabitants, according -to this i3ulgarians, were massacred.

Belgrade giving accounts by returned Servian offi- ters of .atrocities committed by the Turkish troops before abandoning the country conquered by the Ser- vians. `Wherever the Turks passed," says the despatch, "the Servian army found only land strewn with bodies of men, women and children, mutilated in the most barbarous fashion. Bodies of men were also found bound _to trees. They had been burned alive by means of :fires kindled under their feet. One body bore indications of having . been roasted on a gridiron." Turks Again Defeated. A despatch from London says: The Times Sofia correspondent, tel- • egrap•hing 'Friday, 'says : ` "The Turks on Thursday made a desper- ate effort to retrieve the situation. The retreating troops rallied be- tween Tchorlu and Istrandia, and were reinforced by a division sent ' from Constantinople. They were completely defeated, however, by 'the Bulgarians, who captured T'ohorlu, , Istrandia and Rodosto. Altogether some 50,000 Turks had assembled" Tchorlu, and a fresh series of battles occurred over the district extending from Tchorlu to Istrandia and along the heights dominating Rod •osbo. ; A diversion was attempted on the Turkish right wing. General Torgut, of Albanian, fame, ,landed at Micli.a, with 20,000 men and advanced toward Viza, where he encountered the Bulgar- fan troops, - under General'. Kutin cheff. The -turks were completely defeated, but whether they succeed ed in' regaining their ships or re- t reated'eastward is not stated. Enorsnanas Sacrifices, A desatch from Sofia says : Thither, the European concert. holds together or breaks up there is reason to believe that the allied States will hold firmly to their pro- gramme.;' They already have under gome enormous sacrifices, and are prepared to face every eventuality. Only those who have been brought into close contact with the terrible realities of this war can estimate the extent of those sacrifices. In Sofia the wounded are arriving lit erally in thousands, All the larger public and many private buildings have been transformed into hospi- tals. Even at that some have to be laid > on the bare floors, The wound- ed from the last great battle have yet to arrive. How arrangements can be made to accommodate them it is hard to say.

A woman was almost distracted with dyspepsia and heart trouble. Like thousands ; of others, the drug -caffeine --in coffee was slowly but steadily undermining her nerv- ous system and interfering with natural digestion of food. (Tea is just as injurious as coffee because it contains caffeine, the poisonous drug found in coffee.) "For 30 years," she writes, "I have used coffee. $ave always been sickly -had heart trouble and dyspepsia .with ulcers in stomach and mouth so . had, sometimes, I was almost distracted and could hardly eat a thing for a -week. "I could not sleep for nervous- ness, and when I would lie down at -night I'd belch up coffee and my heart • would trouble me. It was like poison to me.

The city of Toronto auditor's re port upon the finances of the Muni cipal Hydro -Electric Power Com mission for the period from June 1 1911, to June 30, 1912, was present ed to` the City Council Oct.. '14 It says. that at the close of 191 an unadjusted balance of $16, 795.62 was carried forward. How ever, it declares that the makin of a good inventory disclosed shortage of $113,477.40 between tl amount standing in the books and the actual amount of stores o hand. The report declares that i was apparently decided to charge the whole of the working deficit on the books of 1911'to construction ac- count. "Entries were consequently made," says the report, "charging the several constructionaccounts with a pro rata percentage of the total deficit as found amounting to $117,803,35," This sum, it explains, is obtained after crediting the in- come earned during the period, and in addition to it there is an out- standing capital charge due the Provincial hydro -Electric Power Commission amounting to $248,245.- $0, The following figures show the position of the civic plant on Dec,. 131, 1911;• Cash from pity , , ,42' 400 995 11 Interest,- eta„ ch; rgedY by catty, oarried to debit of capital ex- penditure ,,.... „ ,,. 92,198 54 Benoit on operating and goner- al expenses to date ... , -, , 117,803 25 >�w Apparel' • 1' €u, e d n t Total charge to 31st Decent - tier, 1912,.,.,,$2,610,995 00 Outstanding* l abilities:- T(nadjusted items of city ae count.,, 16,795 62 Unadjusted stores shorts ax., 113,477 40 Due Prov, Ilydra Eleetrie Gem- mission ...,., ",. ,,., ,., ,, 248,245 81 Finds a Deficit.. The City Auditor is of the opin- ion that a portion of the $117,803 should have been carried forward as a eharge against future earnings. He gives a. general review of the figures for the six months ending June 30, 1912. He reaches the con- clusion that there was a deficit of $85,642.31 on the operations of the period. His statement of operat- ing expenses and earnings is as fol- lows :- Wagos, ollows:--- Wagos, material, oto ,.$213,674 85 Current, Oto.... „ , .. , 76,522 61 Carried to credit of $eprcgiatio'n reserve,..-, ...,. 35,027 16 Acoruod sinking fund (half year) 21,274 28 Interest, ou bonds and advances (one-half charged to revenue)., 36,305 92 378,518 83 $382,804 82 Earnings ..,., .,.... .,. 297,162 51 The auditor calls attention to the fact that for the half year preceding dune 30, 1912, no amount had been provided to meet accrued sinking fund charges, but that an item of $50,888 hail been written into the balance sheet to cover the amount. Added to the deficit this made a total of $136,530 to be carried for- ward against future earnings. In addition, $30,305, the remainder of the interest account, would have to be added to capital account. The City Auditor thinks that such items should be charged directly to rev- enue. Treating them in this way, the present position, he says, would be:- Total e:Total charge to 31st Deo., 1911, as above.. ... ..52,610,995 00 Cash from city from 31st Deo., 1911, to 30th June, 1912 ...... - 715,000 00 Int. credited. by Com. ....,..... 72,611 84 Total charge to 30th Tune, 1912'.$3,398,606 84 Summary.

'He thinks that the volume of business of the civic eleotric department is, and has been, over -stated. He believes that considerable saving could be made in expense .accounts. He points out' that by the ;close of the year sinking fund and interest charges will havo to be met out of earnings. He asks why "renewal and depreciation funds" and `"sink- "sink- ing funds" should be charged'. against the annual cost ofthe un- dertaking, and expresses the opin- ion that the system of purchasing electricity on the peak load. . plan might well be superseded.

Convicted of the muixler of a New York gambler. keeping system of the civie eorn.is- sion had been built up under expert advice after years of experiexacca, that the departnlent was not over- staffed, and that the system of pur- chase of current had been decided upon by the Hydro-Electr e Power Commission of the province, The Mayor explained that the unadjust- ed balance of $16,795 at the close of 1911 represented a difference be - tweet the revenue estimated by the City Council and the actual rev- enue, and, in the opinion of the commission, should not be charged to it at all. Of the item of $113,477 described as shortage on the stores' account, the Mayor said that it was merely a question ' of bookkeeping, Certain invoices were elharged to tores, while as a matter of fact the goods went directly to the job and were never credited when used. A great proportion of the amount had already been traced, The Mayor said that the sum of $248,245 given as due the Hydro -Electric Power Commission of Ontario was not cor- rect, The amount, which referred to the eastern entrance, represent- ed claim plus interest to July 1, 1912, not the amount of the claim on Dec, 31, 1911. The so-called working deficit of $11'7,803, he de- scribed as a technieal tlefleiency which might properly be included in the capital cost of the undertaking. It was due, he believed, to the dis- organization introduced into the op - oration service by the concurrent demands of construction opera- tions. Analyses the Deficit. The Mayor says that the loss for the quarter ending March 31, 1912,. was $55,768, and the loss for the quarter ending June 30 was only $29,873. Of the first quarter's Ioss, $17,056 is interest on investment, $17,065 is written off for deprecia- tion of the new plant, and $12,639 is put aside for sinking fund. Tho loss for the quarter ending June 30 includes also allowances for inter- est, depreciation and sinking fund. Mr. Geary declared that the loss for the quarter ending September 30, the net loss was only $4,647, and this, after allowing for inter- est $20,999, depreciation $19,443, and sinking fund $15,000. As a matter of fact, he said the months of August and September had each shown a small profit got by civic enterprise. The gain, he asserted, was proceeding and the initial loss was being made good. Business, he said, had grown wonderfully. 'The city had 12,000 customers and a plant which could do many times the business with little additional cost, even for current. "We carry," he declared, "against future profits the charge for sinking fund prior to January, 1912, $50,888, and our deficit for the first nine, months of the first year, which is not an op= crating' year, but rather a year of construction is $90,290, included in which is $51,470 depreciation and $36,381 for 'sinking fund." 30 VOLCANOES ACTIVE.

POTATO REPORTS WORSE. Yield From Heavy : Clay Land Is Practically Valueless. • A despatch from Toronto says:„ Reports from all parts of York county indicate that now that the farmers are taking their late pota- toes out of the pits, where they were stored since digging, the loss and depreciation from rot is much greater than was thought likely. Little of the crop will be available for shipping in nearly every case. the yield was very large but the greatest loss is 'found, where this is the case.
