Fighting Near erIboro.

Arta, May 15.-Desperate fighting has
been in progress all day near Griboro,
on the road to Filippiada. Two bri-
gades of Greeks, with many guns, two
companies Of sappers and a squadron
Of cavalry attacked the Turks, who
we're almost without artillery. The
Greeks forced the first Turkish line of
defense, but met with a stubborn re-
sistance at the second. In several places
the bayonets We're so close 10 the can
non that they (the bayonets) could not
be used. Five hundred of the Greeks
are hors du combat. The battle still
continues as this dispatch Is being sent
The gunboat hotilla has been attack
ing Nicopolis from inside the gulf Of
Arcadia with a simultaneous attack
proceeding from the land side. The
Turkish batteries replied vigorously and
firmly resisted the attack. The coming
Of darkness stopped the engagement

trated upon capturing Nicopolis and
