A Portion of Edhem's Army Driven Back
Through Aiiouna Pass - Bulgaria
Angry With Turkey and May
Take Hand In the Fray.

London, April 23.-The war nsws re-
ceived from the special correspondents
Of the London papers published this
morning is meager and somewhat con-
flicting. The only certainty seems to
be that Tyrnavo has not yet fallen, but
Nezeros is in the hands of the Turks.
The Chronicles Athens correspondent
says that the Greeks have retreated
from Matt
According to The Times correspond
ent at Athens, the result of the fighting
which has been raging furiously at
Matt would decide the fate of Larissa,
and If the Turks capture Matt, TyrnavO
must fall.
A telegram from Larissa, dated 8
o'clock last evening, says that 10000
Turks are engaged and that the Crown
Prince Constantine has arrived on the
scene Of action. The Greeks are main
tanning their positions.
All the dispatches from Athens admit
that the situation is extremely grave.
Fighting appears to be going on along
the whole frontier line. 1t is rumored
there that the king viii start for La
rissa on Monday next.
The western division of the Greek
fleet has sailed from Loucas for the
coast of Epirus with the design Of To-
menting a revolt among to- Albanians.
1t is said that Hofe Pasha will re-
sign the command of the Turkish fleet
If It is ordered to leave the Darda-
nelles. He is said to have declared the
vessels quite unfit for active opera
tions."
A dispatch to The Times from Tyr
navo describes the arrival of its corre-
spondent there. He says: "All the
roads are crowded with fugitives and
with horses and thousands Of sheep,
making for the eastern highlands Of
Ossa. The Greeks attacked Boughazi
last evening and carried the pass this
morning. They have also captured the
Turkish fort Of Viglia and are now on
the road to Damasi."

Washington, April 23.-General Miles
has applied for permission TO go to
Greece to observe the war between that
country and Turkey from a military
point Of view Secretary Alger has
brought the matter TO the attention
Of the president, and the latter has
taken the application into considera-
tion. The impression is that owing TO
the rapid progress Of the war and the
likelihood that it will be brought to an
end before General Miles could reach
the scene. the project viii be aban-
doned. Should the order be made By
the president, however, it viii be the
first time in our history that the gener-
al commanding the army has gone
abroad during actual war as a military
attache. IL is true that General Sher-
man made q tour of the world In time
Of peace, IN company with Fred Grant,
and that Sheridan accompanied the
German army as an attache i'm the war
with France. but in the first case no
war was in progress and IN the second
the officer was not at the time OF such
high rank as Is General Miles.

Larissa, April 2S.-The fighting con-
tinues on the Thessalian plains with
apparently little vantage gained by
either cOntesting army. The Greeks
under Prince Constantine are holding
their positions, and in some quarters
have turned back the tide of Turkish
invasion.
The Greek evzones and a mountain
battery, having ascended the noun
tains east of the St. George monastery,
were taken by the Turks on the flank.
After a severe fight, lasting many
hours, the Turks. who had driven the
Greeks from Matt and Ligaria, brought
2S0 Circassian cavalry from Elassona
The Circassians began to extend into
the plain; but being raked by the Creek
Colonel Mastropas battery and by the
evzones, they were compelled to fall
back on Ligaria with great loss.
A portion of the fleeing Turks have
recrossed the Milouna pass toward
Elassona. The Greek infantry, extend
ing in a semicircle from Tyrnavo to
Karavali and supported by artillery, all
well handled. after a hard days fight
ing drove back the Turks upon Liga-
ria. It is understood that the latter
arc retreating in force toward Elias
soma.
The estimation in which the Turks
are held is shown by the stampede OF
the whole population on the frontier.
The villages and roads TO Larissa are
literally blocked with fugitives. herds
of cattle, horses and donkeys, women
and children on foot, old women carry
ing chairs, beds and household gear on
their backs, on donkeys. in OK wagons
and In every conceivable sort Of We
hicle.
The scene is heartrending and re-
minds one Of Pliny's description of the
flight from Pompeii after the eruption
of Mount Nesuvius.
Larissa is overcrowded, food 4.
scarce. the hospitals are full. and there
an urgent appeal for nurses and sur
gical assistance. The wounded are ar
irving hourly. and all the surgical op-
erations must be performed without
chloroform, as there is none 10 be had.
Chief Davellis and the survivors OF

Constantinople, April 2S-The sui
tan's ministers are great deal more
deeply concerned in the sudden strong
move which has been made by Bull
garia than they are in the fighting
which is going on in Thessaly.
Immediately after the actual break
ing out of war became known the Bull
garian agent in Constantinople, Nj.
Marcoff. obtained an interview with the
sultan and informed his majesty that
unless berettas for five more Bulgari-
an bishops in Macedonia and the nom
ination of Bulgarian commercial agents
at Uskub and Monastir were granted
at once. Bulgaria would begin mobiliz-
ing her army on Saturday.
on the following day NJ Marcoff re-
peated his statements, which amounted
20 an ultimatum on the part Of Bull
garia.
The sultan sought to temporize with
the Bulgarian agent, ana the Russian
ambassador also told NJ. Marcof that
the moment for such action on the part
of Bulgaria was inopportune. but Bull
garia nevertheless persists in her de-
termination TO mobilize her army if her
demands are not complied with.
The action of NJ Marcoff recalls the
cordiality of the interview between
Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria and the
German emperor, which took place in
Berlin on Tuesday, and Prince Ferd-
nands subsequent conference with
Baron Marschall Won Bieberstein. the
German minister of foreign affairs, as
we'll as the cordiality characterizing
the kaisers reception in Vienna. in
ducing the belief that he is seeking to
play a sensational Deus ex machina.
The principaiity of Bulgaria was ere
ated by the treaty of Berlin in 1878.
II pays tribute to Turkey, but the peo-
pie choose their own sovereign, who
is appointed by the sultan with the
consent of the powers. The population
of the country is more than 60 per cent
Greek Catholics, the remainder being
Mohammedans and Jews. Bulgaria
maintains a standing army, which on
a peace footing numbers $4,000 men.
The war strength of the army with the
addition Of reserves would be 10000.
The government has orders being filled
for $1,000 Austrian Mannlicher rifles.
Since Prince Ferdinand ascended the
throne great improvement has been
made in the military service.
