Demoralized Turks A. despatch from Sou says : The Turkish army commanded by Naziin Pasha was completely crush- ed in the great battle of the last two days on the Serai-Tchorlu line. According to the semi-official Mir, the Turks lost in killed and wound- ed more than double the losses at Lule Burgas. The Bulgarians are now pursuing the defeated enemy. The sanguinary; character of the recent engagements, which it is re- Trted have involved 'losses to the urks of 40,000 Hien, has been duo to the extraordinary energy of the Bulgarian attack. The view of the Bulgarian staff is that the Turks are so demoralized that frontal at- tacks maybe undertaken even against the strongest positions without superior forces, and the Turkish shortage of artillery and ammunition has contributed to the success of these tactics. The Bulgarian vanguard, it is said, has reached Lake Derkas, one detachment passing between the lake and the sea. Another line of the. Bulgarian advance is reported. to . be attacking the for in front +of the town of Tchatalja, while still another column, which ::marched down the main road from Tohorlu to Silivri, is now advancing to Bo- gadoe for the purpose of forcing .a passage along the coast of the sea of Marmora. These are, however, only flying columns. The main body has not yet commenced the attack on Tcli- atalja fortifications. According to statements made by proMinent public men in Sofia., Bulgaria will reject mediation un- til Tchataija has been capcuree: and Adrianople has fallen, and although it is said that entry into Constan- tinople is no part of the allies plans,. Bulgaria will not listen to the suggestion of peace negotia- tions unless Turkey gives an un- dertaking to bring no more rein- forcements from Asia. Tehataldja's forts Taken. A despatch from London. says: The riatorious Bulgarians made one. swift,vicio. s assault ,ors the "far tions of"`. chataldja oaz Thureda r, ed• won them. The -disheartened Turks are now scattered over :,the 25 -Haile district between those cap: tired Nees of defence and Constan- tinople, and the Bulgarians ar pursuing them, capturing some and'' killing others. There is re> noth- ing save these disorganized, fleeing bands of Turks to stop the Bulgar- ians intheir conquering march to- wards the capital of their enemies. Bulgarians Occupy. Drama. The Bulgarians occupied the town of Drama on November 5. The Turkish troops in that region have been scattered in all directions. Most of them have surrendered their arms and are returning to their homes. Other remnants are so demoralized that the peasants terrorize them and compel them to disarm and flee. Throughout the district the inhabitants have warm- ly welcomed the Bulgarians, and bhe Bulgarian administration has een. established. It is officially announced that the port of Rodosto, on the Sea of Mar - mora, and the city of Visa, to the southeast of Adrianople, were oc- cupied by the Bulgarian troops on November 5. Adrianople in Rebellion. !� despatch from London says: Adrianople is reported to be in a state of rebellion. .There is word from that beleaguered city that)the Turkish soldiers are flatly* refusing to fight any longer, and have to be driven tothe' defences at the point of the sword. That city is ap- parently to be starved into surren- der. The Bulgarian commanders realize that its fall is but a mat- ter of days, and that they cannot afford to lose any more Hien in an assault. They are contenting them- selves with sweeping. down on Turk= ish wagon . trains and isolating Adrianople from the world. Turkish Losses Huge. The Turkish losses in killed and wounded during the five days' fight- ing in the vicinity of Lule Burgas and Bunarhissar are estimated :at 25,000 men.' The Bulgarian troops captured 37 batteries of quick -fixing guns and took 2,000 prisoners. They also seized four locomotives and 243 railroad cars. Massacre in Salonica. A despatch received in London on Saturday from Constantinople to. the Daily Chronicle, coming by an indirect route, confirms the previ- ous report of the Greek occupation of Salonica, and says the approach of the Greeks was attended by aw- ful scenes. Before they entered the town a terrible massacre of the non -Moslem population took place and the shooting and looting was general. When the Greeks took possession they imprisoned all the pashas, officials and Turkish offi- cers. The Turks now in captivity at Salonica cumber 27,000 men. A Broken Army. Bulgarian Headquarters, Nov. 10.—"Anyone who saw the spec- tacle presented by the retreat of the Turks on November 5 and 6' must have been convinced of they hopelessness of any further resist- ance on their part to the Bulgar- ian attacks," writes Lieut. Weg- ener, • "On every road leading east- ward towards •Tchatalja indescrib- ably, fascinatingand convincing pictures of a • peteeesi;rriCli"•eii" fxgl t were to be witnessed; abandoned. guns, overturned ammunition wag- gons, broken-down oxen, and hors- es driven to death; of a whole de- tachment of epithetic Turkish troops cowering, exhausted and starving, by the roadside without arms and in tattered uniforms, and soldiers would only be too delight- ed to be captured, as at least they might hope to get something to eat. This is no army, but simply a pack of wretched human beings. who are not even capable of defending their own skins, and these are the troops who are trying to hold the anti- quated earthworks of Tohataija against the irresistible assault of. the Bulgarian troops." Victorylor Servians. A despatch from Belgrade says : Dibra, 45 miles. southwest of Pris- rend, in Albania, was taken by the ,5ervians on Saturday after severe fighting, according to private ad- -vices. The remnants of the Turk- ish Macedonia army have assemb- led there. The same reports say that Monastir has surrendered. Major Popovich, in command of the Servian cavalry,' has captured Dajean, with a thousand Turks. The third Servian army is well on its way towards 'the Adriatic, but progress is slow on account of the bad roads. It is expected that 4424, n.
