Exeter Times, 1912-11-21, Page 201 CHOLERA PLAGUE
King Ferdinand Will Stop t th. eates of the
Turkish Capitali
A. assacro atteared.
A despatch from Sella says t King
Ferdinand has decided not to miter
Coeseantineple if hts takes the
Tchataldja lines, because of a fear
that a niassacre of Christians will
eccu.r before he cart aocure full eOta-
trol of tlie city and Seel sure of
keepiug order. Feer issf a cholera
plague, aided him in this decision.
Ferdinand's Government favors his
decisioe. L Natehovitch., Bulgar-
ian Foreige.Miniater, in an inter-
view with the correspondent a the
Neue Freie Proem, said that Bul-
garia wants Constantinople and
Salonica made free 'cities, and that
the Bulgarian a,rmy will halt before,
the gates a Constantinople and
leave the fate of the Turkish ca-
pital to the powers.
The Darken allies ab Salonica
are displaying a fine erop a petty
jealowsies. The Bulgarians who
followed the Greeks into that city
wired tie King Ferdinand that the
city was now under his rule, there-
by stirring in the brats a the
Greeks a feeling that due credit
bad not been given to them.
Wounded Left to Die.
A despatch front London says:
From the accounts of correspon-
dents on the Bulgarian side, their
wounded are in just as bad condi-
tion as the Turks. One correepore
dent in deseribing 'die poor ambu-
lance service of the Bulgarians,
whose wounded are driven for miles
in joiting oxen carts, says this is not
the worst part of their sufferings.
He continues :—
"After several battles the woun-
ded were left lying on the bare
fields where they had fallen for two
or three hot days and bitterly cold
nights, and the worst sighta in the
hospitals are the rows of poor fel-
lows with swollen and gangreeed
limbs, for whom there is no laope
of recovery."
The eorrespenclent adds that
many are clyiag from exposure and
not from wounds,
Grim Toll at Yersidje.
A despatch from Athens says:
It is announced that 35.000 Turks
were engaged in the battle against
the. Greeks at Yenidje. They had
42 heavy guns. The Terkiah loses
numbered 2,000 killed, 500 made
prisoner and 22 guns captured.
The Greek losses were 500 killed
and wounded, including fifteen of-
ficers..
Six Thousand Massacred.
A deepatch from Athens sans
Six thousand women and children,
25 men and two prieats have been
reassured in the aeighborhood of
Janina, by 750 men of the Turkish
hofantry and 300 Bashi-Bazouks,
who pillaged and sot fire to the vil-
lages.
Murderous Fighting.
A despatch from Bulgerian head-
quarters says After , four days'
murderous fighting, the Bulgarian
arzny has tucceeded its breaking
through the Turkieh position at
Tehatalja in the centre of the lines
and completely rolling up the Tark-
ish defence. The Bulgarian ad-
vance is being pushed forward with
the greatest energy with the view
of forcing the Turkish troops away
frora Constantinople.
Cholera Stops Bulgaria,.
A despatch from London says:
Cholera at Tchatadelja and Oenstan-
tineple is doing meee than all the
men under Namm Pasha to stop the
march of the Bulgars. Eye -witness-
es tell of horrible scenes in the be-
leaguered forts, where hundreds of
bodies of viotims of the diseases are
piled into shallow trenches.
It is doubtful if King Ferdinand
will risk the lives of any more of
his men by marching them into a
plague -stricken city, and there is a,
report that already many of the
Bulgarian troops have been striek-
en with cholera, which they caught
in positions from which they had
routed the diseased Tarks.
A Constantinople despatch to the
Cologne Gazette declares that Bul-
garia has abandoned her intentions
to enter Constantinoplh, being thus
advised by Russia and Great Bri-
tain. Altogether, although the re-
port.that an armistice already has
been arranged has not been con-
firmed, all indications point in that
direction, and it may be supposed
that the terrible eenditions of tam-
inp and destitution prevailing
among the refugees in the neiehber-
hoed of Constantinople, which are
calculated to provide a hotbed for
the spread ef cholera, may have had
something to- .do with Bulgaria's de-
cision.
Constantinople still waits her fate
in. the calm of despair. Ste far, in
spite of alarmist reports, there has
been no great disorder there.

Old Mayflower Springs Leak In Madawaska River
Near Barry's Bay, and Sinks.
A despatch .from Ottawa says
Nine lives are believed to have
been lost in the Madawaska River
on Tuesday night soon after 7,
o'clock, when the old wheel steam-
er Mayflower, a small 50 -foot beat,
eapsized and sank three miles out
of Barry's Bay, after springing a
leak. Of the twelve people aboard,
ten of whom were passengers and
two members of the crew, three
passengers, namely, Gorden 0.
Peverley, J. S. Imleeth and M. J.
Idarper, all of Ottawa, and eora-
mercial travelers, are alive .to tell
the story of the. terrible disaster.
They were found by a search party
who rowed out from. Barry's Bay
to an island about three miles down
the river, in a very exhausted con-
dition.
From the brief story of the dis-
aster that could be obtained from
the three survivors, they say that
the Mayflower sprang a leak.soon
after she left Barry's Bay. Her
hold rapidly fined with water, and
those on hotted quickly realized that
death was imminent, There was
hardly a moment to decide on how
their lives could be saved. A howl-
ing wind was sweeping dow-n over
the river, which is nearly a, mile
wide at the point where the beat
sprang a leak, and the water was
lashing the sides •gf the ill-fated
boat with a vengeaeoe. All around
wee black.
Not a light eould be seen any-
where. The boat began to lurch a
,e•Amirmin
little, a little more and' theu ter-
ribly, when the old ooal-oil lamps
went out by being crashed to the
floor, and in a few minutes when
all was in darkness the boat keeled
over broadside and sank suddenly,
throwing passengers, crew, freight
and all, of which there was a good
deal aboard, and machinery, into
the icy water. The wooded shores
threw back the echoes of the cries
of the drowning souls. The three
survivors were able to discern some
spars of timber floating near to
where they had been hurled into
the water. Each tried to cheer the
other with words of encouragement,
and half perished in water that was
elogged with ioe, and almost numb-
ed to the paint of unconsciousness
they drifted ashore, but more dead
than alive.
Words, they say, could net de.
scribe these' hours of suffering on
the island up to the time they were
found. They were too exhausted
to walk, or even to get to their
feet, Throughout the long, cold
night, and terrible, even colder day,
in a, blinding snow storm, they
waited and payed that help would
come to them. Death seemed in-
evitable until at last, when hope
seemed practically gone, they heard
