Communication with the front has
been almost wholly severed for four
DAYS. A decisive battle is believed TO
be in progress. The Russian position
is precarious and they are no further
ad vanced than they were three months
ago. Ample Information as to attroci-
ties has created a very strong anti
Turkish feeling in England. A powerful
Russian party is growing and assum
ing a position of prominence. Public
sentiment now favors the s~ubjugation
of the Turk and the settlement of the
terms of peace afterward by Europe.
Osman Pasha is being attacked and
a battle is now raging. The campaign
of the present year will certainly be
settled within the next forty eight
hours.
In the engagement at Loftscha yes
terday tie Russians lost 5000 killed
and wounded and the Turks only
100. 1t is scarcely possible to believe
that the assailants should have hoped
to drive Osman Pasha from his posi-
ton with a force so inadequate as that
described, or that they should have
retired with no greater loss than that
above stated. 1t is more than likely
TIE advance was only tentative and
that the real struggle began on the
following day, and may now be going
on.
At Plevna the large Russian army

batteries OF artillery, while the army
of Mehmet Ali Pasha contains about
go, men of all arms. Suleiman
Pasha is believed to be e~ndeavoring To
force the passage of the Balkans, so as
to form the center of the Turkish line.
Grand Duke Nicholas has removed his
headquarters from Biela to Bulgareni.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Aug. 1913 p. NJ.
No confirmation has bee received
here of the rumors that the Russians
have been defeated at Plevna, as re-
ported in official circles here last night,
and it is reported hat the fight is still
going on. The Russians number
so, 00O, but the strength of the Turkish
e~ntrenched positions is considered to
compensate for the numerical inferior
