A dispatch from Belgrade says it is re-
ported that the Turks have advanced beyond
Barja, and that the Servians evacuated that
important pass without firing shot. 1t is
quite possible the constant rumors of Turk
ish advances and Turkish retreats are exag-
gerated. But it cannot be denied that the
prospects of the Servians are becoming more
gloomy. The rumors of their evacuation of
the defiles leading from Gurgusovatz to Deli
gradi, and from Saitschar to Parakin, though
unconfirmed, is highly probable. If the
Turks push forward it is more than likely
that the expected great battle at Alexinatz
or Deligradi will never be fought. Officials
continue to assure the public OF their ability
to beat the Turks. Nevertheless, consterna-
ton prevails, and must increase as the num-
Der of runaways increase in the streets.."..

address, touching on the Servo.Turkish war,

troubles she said: A difference has arisen
between my government and that of the
United States as to the proper construction
of an article in the treaty OF the 9th of Au-
gust, 1912, which relates to the mutual sur
render of persons accused Of certain Of
lenses. The inconvenience to both coun.
tries which would follow cessation of the
practice of extradition are great and OBJ
nOxiOus, and l entertain the hope that a
new arrangement will soon be arrived at by
which the matter will be placed on salts
factory footing.
The famine in the Northern provinces OF
China is producing disastrous consequences.
Thousands of deaths from starvation occur
daily. Rice has been ordered from the

destitute. Hanlin College contribute one
million picules; Lie Hung Chang, Viceroy OF
