Sofa Bulgaria. Sept. 3.-The insur-
gents in the district of Adrianople ap-
pear to be less active. The Turks are
pouring in in an overwhelming force
and the revolutiOnists are taking ref
uge in the mountains. The Bulgarian
leader, Gergcoff. has been wounded
and has fed TO Burgas, Bulgaria. The
insurgents, it Is reported, have cap
tured the seaport of AhtabOty, near
Vasiliko, on the Black sea, and the
Turkish population has fed to Con-
Rtantinople. The insurgents have or
ganized q local government at the
captured seaport and are giving ships
their clearing papers and sanitary
certificates.
The report published by the Dnevnik
OF general uprising in northern Mace
donia is denied both in official and rev.
olutionary circles. Well informed
persons, however, assert that the re-
port was correct but that its prema-
ture publication disarranged the plans
of the revolutionists, and therefore it
is denied. According to reliable re-
ports from Monastir, thousands Of Bull
garians in that vilayet are confronted
with famine in addition to Turkish
persecution.
The Dnevnik continues to report nu-
merous outrages on the part Of the
Turkish soldiers in a number OF vii
lagos.
1t is reported that tho Turkish cor1-
manders are adopting Lord Kitchen
er's tactics in the Transvaal by maxi
ing lives in the Killlissi district and
elsewhere with the idea of destroying
or driving the insurgent bands over
the Bulgarian frontier.
