Born the Russians and the Turks
are rushing forward achievements
to their respective Danubian armies.
Tho recent setback to the Russians
will probably have two effects first
largely to increase the numerical
forces engaged in the contest, and,
secondly, to prolong the war indelin-
itcly. If the other Powers should
keep ont Of the fight, and if Russia's
good seneralship should prove equal
to her resolute determination of
spirit, it is only a question of time
when she will literally food Euro
pean Turkey with her soldiery, and
wipe out the last vestige of Moham
medan oppression in all that region.

TIE TURKISH WAR.

Late dispatches indicate that while
the Russians sustained severe and
unexpected defeat at Pcvna, they are
making strenuous efforts to recove
lost ground Reinforcments are being
hurried forward to aid the defeated
army, and great activity IS being dis
played Ia an effort to restore the
confidence Of the troops, The whole
Imperial Guard has been ordered to
the front aud the army of the Dob
rudscha is hurrying to Sistora.
Fresh levies have been ordered by
the Gar, and we are told they are
met with enthusiasm" The plan Of
the war may be materially changed,
for the Russians are astonished, and
well they may be, at the strength
and effectiveness of the plan Of de-
fence between the Danube and the
Balkan mountains. Russia is evil
IDENTIFY satisfied that she has more
Of an undertaking on her hands than
at first supposed, and will call into
action all the power of the vast en-
pire to crush the Turks. On the
other hand, the Turks are jubilant
over recent successes, and hopeful
that prolongation of the war may
result to their advantage.

TIE strike of the coal miners in
Luzerne and adjoining counties Of
Pennsylvania is for an actual increase
of wages. The strikers, many thous-
and in number, are disposed to be
turbulent and violent In view Of
the necessity of protecting life and
property, the Government is concen-
tratlng a large force of UnitedStates
regular troops in that region to re-
main there until all trouble is over
The strikers are defiant and declare
that they will not permit new hands
to take their places, and that, if need
be, they will fight the entire United
States army rather than work or al
low others to work at the present
rate Of wages In the Schuylkill
district the miners have resolved not
to strike. The interrupted railroads
expect to resume the running of
coal trains aud all other trains to-day
but serious trouble is anticipated.
Governor Hartranft is sending home
the State troops, leaving to the
Federal troops the protection of the
peace and public safety, The coal
miners in Ohio also threaten trouble,
but as yet there has been no actual
outbreak.
