OSMAN PASHA IN A CRITI-
CAL POSITION.

LONDON, September 6. The Russian success at
Lovaz places Osman Pasha in the awkward posi-
ton OF having hostile force on both TANKS.
Either defeat at Pevna or an attempted with
drawal might result in the destruction of his army
unless the Russians compelled to weaken their
forces on that side in order to meet Mehemet Ais
advance from Rosgrad
The latter seems to place the Czarowitch's army
in position very similar to Osman Pasha's. If
the Turkish accounts may be trusted, the Turkish
force has crossed LON and reached the neighbor-
hood OF Oberteni. while another force has crossed
Kara LON to Polomarka. The corps are under
stood to be operating against Biela but jeopardize
the Russian campaign east of Ysntra as well as
communications with Iirnova.
The Daily News Vienna telegram from Tihis,
states that the Russians entirely dismantled Arda-
hon, which is now an open town. Gen. Kamoroh
has Withdrawn the most of his troops from there
to the main body of the army, leaving only nine
rifle bsttalons 10 the place.
The News Bucharest correspondent says strong
dissatisfaction is displayed in the Russian army
at the lncapacy of the Russiaa staff especially of
Gen. Levitsky, who is acting chief. The man
to whom all eyes now turned, is Gen. Drago-
moraff, who is wounded, but not so severely as TO
prevent his taking active direction of the cam
paign.
The discomfort is greatly augmented by Prince
Charles, foreigner, without military exper fence,
being appointed to the command of an active ar
my before Plevna.
The Times Belgrade special announces that
several members Of the diplomatic corps made
separate circumstances to Prince Milan in refer
ence to his war preparations. The Austrian and
Russian representatives, however, did not join in
these circumstances, 10 which the Prince Is stated
TO have answered evssvely.
