Report Confirmed.
LONDON, November Ia Time.
special from Belgrade confirms the repor,
of two months srmistice having been
agreed to. 1t also says the levey Ell
nlasse has been countermanded, and that
the Turks have entered and burned
KrusheSatz. Whatever may be the re-
suits of the negotiations for permanent
peace Servis will fight no more, and,
Russian volunteers are not likely to come
again to fight for her.
Description of Sundays Battle.
A correspondent of the Ne,os with
General Tchernsyeff's army, telegraphs
to that journal description Of Sundays
battle and the position of affairs after
wards. The following are extracts: The
Turks fought with dogged pertinacity,
and occasionally with brilliant dash,
which claims the highest admiration.
The Russians fought hard and stoutly,
but the Russians had borne the brunt OF
fight after fight in this very position,
and as for the Servians, 1t was uot their
day. The full weight and significance of
the Servian's defeat is not easy to esti-
mate, and it is not easy to form an opin-
ion of the loss incurred. We do not know
where the troops are, to say
nothing of the wounded, many of
whom / fear never will be brought
in. The Deligrad wing of the army is
in condition of Generalization and
temporary dispersion. Gen. Hsrvatovich
with the right wing is retiring out OF
reach of Turks and it would be folly for
him 70 offer battle. The Russian officers
are leaving. They decline to be mas
sacred for people whom they denounce as
destitute OF all martial spirit, and they
have no words to express their contempt
and disgust for the pusianimity OF the
Servian soldiers.
