The long inactivity OF the Russian forces
in Asia Minor j. explained by the fact that
they have been engaged in supervising an
insurrection in the central district OF Dag
heston. II was reported on the 4th, that,
the insurrection having been effectually
quelled, the Russians had made concerted
attack along the whole line, and that severe
fighting had taken place. Changes In Turk
ish commanders are announced a. follows:
Mehemet Ali has been recalled by the au-
thorities nj Constantinople, and his place A.
commander Of the army Of the Danube
taken by Suleiman Pasha, the latter being
succeeded in the Balkans by Raouf Pasha.
The Russian attack upon the Turkish de-
fences around kars, on the 81, was success
fully repulsed, both sides having lost heavily
without either gaining any important adj
vantage.
Mukhtar Pasha, Turkish commander in
Asia, telegraphed on the eth that the Rus
SLAMS had abandoned all their positions par
sllel to the Ottoman lines. The enemy's
losses in the three days fighting are esfi-
mated by Mukhtar at 1000; that 81 the
Turk. j. given al 1000. Al Schipka Pass
the snow was two feet in depth, and the
troops were compelled 70 sit on frozen
trenches anke-deep In the snow.
The attempt Of the Russians 70 cut Mukh-
TAR Pasha OF from the fortress a. Kars wac
frustrated after three days battle. A re-
liable correspondent says that the Russian
losses in Asia have been greatly exaggerated
by Turkish reports, and that the losses on
both sides are about equal Important
changes in the Russian command in Europe
are announced. The work before Plevna
continues. The massing Of troops indicates
further active operations during the au-
tumn.
