Bayazid, General Tergukassofi found
that the garrison was in a fearful On
dition, being almost starved, and suit
fering from loathsome diseases incl
dent to camp life. The Turkish can

awful. The dead and wounded num-
bered 500, and the remainder of the
garrison was in no physical condition
to fight. They had lived on horse

all the important outposts. General
Melikof is e~ntrenchiDg himself, and
other forces have been hastily recalled
from all available point, to Barukdara,
where they will make a stand and wait
for reinforcements. II is a strong POI
sition, but Mukhtar Pasha, flushed
with his recent victories, may b
tempted to make an attack, and should
he be- successful the Russians will re-
treat to this place and Alexandropol,
with the Turks pursuing them into
Russian territory.
