SALONICA, European Turkey, April 49,
A sanguinary fight has occurred at the
village of Opela between revolutionists
from Palanka and Turkish troops.
After the encounter had lasted some time
and the revolutionists were getting the
worst Of 1t, a dozen of them being killed or
wounded, they resorted to the use OF dyna-
mito and hurled bombs among the Turks,
seventy of whom were killed or wounded by
the explosions.
In the panic which followed the revolu-
~tionists broke through the Turks and es-
capped.
ROME, April 1S.-Private a6Vices nom
the revolutionary committee in the Balkans
state that preparations for insurrection
are ready. The revolutionary committee
asserts that the whole Of Macedonia will
rise and asks for the sympathy Of Italy.
In government circles here little faith
is expressed in a general insurrection
while partial outbreaks are regarded as
attempts to force a European interven-
ton.
Ricciotti Garibaldi, the leader Of the
italian volunteers in Greece during the
war with Turkey, publishes a letter, in
which he says that in the Balkan question
Italy's program must be to prevent Russia
and Austria from advancing and helping
the speed OF Hellenism and to insure the
freedom OF the oteer nationalities under
