GRAND MILITARY FEAT OF THE RUSSIANS
LONDON, January "a Vienna despatch
says: The Russians have achieved rare
feat of perseverance and endurance in cross
ing the Etropol Balkans, and the whole
movement seems to SAVIOR rather Of bold,
adventurous raid. like Gen. Gourko's over
the Hankoi Pass. than of regular military
operation. 1t cannot cannot but hasten the
withdrawal of Turkish troops from the Bal
kan line-at any rate from the western por-
ton. Suleiman Pasha seems to have fore
seen this when he took up bis headquarters
at fehtiman. and to have thought that
stand made at rallying point formed by
junction at Rhodope and the second Balkan
chain might etfectually bar all advance from
the direction OF Sofia. There is. however.
succession of parallel valleys formed by
Topolinca, Giupso, and Tuni4, which run
to the north of Yehtiman, by which the
Russian columns descending from the Etro-
pol Balkans may press eastward, and, unit
ing with forces traversing the Shipka Pass,
turn tho position of Yehtiman and march
down upon Adrianople. The only question.
therefore, is whether the Turks are strong
enough to bar descent from Shipka Pass
and hold Yehtiman. with the defles of
TopOlinca and Giupso at the same time if
not, they must retreat still further to the
east.
PEACE NEGOTIATIONS PROBABLE
Vienna. Jan. "A special says 1.-The idea
OF direct negotiations with Russia meets
with increasing favor at the porte. The
reason why this step has not yet been taken
is the impossibiity of ascertainiug Russia's
conditions of peace.
