BOTH SIDES LOST HEAVILY.

Turkish Force Numbered $4,000 and the
Greeks About $4,000.
LONDON, May 18.-The Daily Tele-
graphs special correspondent with the
Turkish forces in Thessaly says !:
"Edhem Pasha has moved from point
and finally occupied Domokos The
Greeks have sustained crushing de-
feat"
LONDON, May l8.-The Daily Chron-
icle's correspondent at Athens sends
the following official account of the
fighting at Domokos:
Over $4,000 Turks simultaneously
and continuously attacked our whole
line. Our artillery and infantry did
splendid work. Twice all the regi-
ments Of the enemy wavered and fled,
though their attack was soon renewed
with fresh forces, which in turn we
were able to hurl back.
The stubborn resistance and splendid
vigor Of our troops finally compelled
the enemy to give way altogether. All
the attacks on our left were similarly
repulsed.
On our right we did not fare so we'll.
The first attack of the enemy we re-.
pulsed, but they massed in immense
forces for the next attack. Our first
line wavered and was broken, and the
wing would have been turned but for
the timely arrival of the reserves.
Still the enemy had gained ground
which it was then impossible to regain,
and we therefore fell back on Bousi.
The Turks had $4,000 troops, with
10000 reserves. Our force was only
$4,000. We have lost heavily, but the
enemy must have lost thousands. 80.
