London, calls Uskub, which was taken on
Friday last by the Serbo- Bulgarian army,

'Uskub,' he says, ''lies open to an at

garian armies. which. passing down the
valley Of the Morava, can also make use
Of the railroad and roads which lead TO
Uskub.
Should the Turkish forces suffer a
heavy defeat in this quarter the road TO

SCUTARI BOMBAROED
FROM THREE POINTS
Montenegro and Servian
Forces Effect a Junction at
Sienitza, in Novipazar.

Rieka, Montenegro. Oct. ga gem
eral bambardment of Scutari began at
10 o'clock this morning, The town was
subjected TO a crossfire from the
Montenegrin batteries TO the north,
south and west, and also from the
island Of Vranjina, on the lake, from
which point of vantage King Nicholas
watched the action.
After an hour a thick smoke was seen
issuing from the eastern quarter Of the
town. The bombardment still con-
tinues.
The troops under General Vukotich
to-day took the strongly fortified
heights Of Rosai, which dominate the
approach to Ipek. also known as Petch,
and continued their advance on the
town.
On October % the Montenegrin troops
Joined the Servian forces at Slenitza, In
Novipazar. King Nicholas telegraphed
General Vukotich, congratulating him
on this event, which, he said, was un-
precedented in five centuries.

and the troops are not under the con-
troll Of the officers.
At Adrianople a panic has been
caused by a mutiny Of a Redif regi-
ment. which bolted for troop train
and demanded to be sent home.
In the hope Of restoring confidence
attempts are being made to persuade
the Sultan to go to the front. These
reports are believed because they help
TO explain the breakdown Of the Turk
ish defence.
The evacuation of Uskub has made a
worse impression in Constantinople
than the fail Of Klrk-Kalisseh. A
leading Austrian general states that he
is quite unable TO understand why U.s.
kub was abandoned so soon without
resistance.
In political circles in London the con-
viction is expressed that Turkey is rot
ten to the core and that the final catas-
trophe is inevitable.

Loss Put at High Figure.

II was estimated the other day by
florist in 18th street that the fifty or more
dealers in the district had lost, collective
ly 500 day in the last three weeks.
Figuring on that basis. he said, II the
Balkan troubles were not settled within
two months the loss would reach S&.0O.
and IL hostilities continued until after
May 1, 1913, the time when dollhouse vio-
lets cease TO bloom. the loss Will reach
500 90.
THAT does not mean that We dealers
will lose that much business" the florist
continued. at represents a dead loss

ADRIANOPLE ISOLATED
Turks Laugh at Idea of Assault
Being Successful.

Regarding Adrianople, Il. Ashmead.
Bartlett writes from Constantinople as
follows:
"A victory for the BulgarIans will
mean driving the grand army OF Thrace
south and leaving Adrlanople isolated and
obliged to stand siege.
THE town is extremely strongly forti-
fed by forts, field works and fortress
artillery, and is held by a garrison which
/ learn on excellent authority amounts
to nearly fifty thousand men. The Turk
ish military authorities laugh at the Idea
Of the Bulgarians being able TO take it
by assault, and a regular siege Is out OF
the question. because long before the
fortress could be reduced to submission
the grand army Of Thrace would have
been modified and marched to its relief.
ION the other hand. 1t would seem the
height of folly for the Bulge r!ans TO at
tempt TO mask Adrianople and to ad-
vance further south in the hope OF de-
feating in detail the units OF the grand
army Of Thrace before they could be con-
centrated. Even with their superiority
OF numbers they would hardly dare leave
force of fifty thousand men In their
rear, and thus jeopardize their retreat in
the event Of a reverse. or lay themselves
open to an attack In the rear while they
were engaged with the Turkish troops
further south.
Thus 1t seems almost certain that the
Bulgarian offensive In this quarter of the
field must come to an abrupt stop In
front NJ Adria nonle This will give TINA
for the army OF Thrace to concentrate
preparatory to taking the offensive and
endeavoring to drive the Bulgarian army
back through the Mustaia Pacha pass
into Bulgaria"

TURKISH ARMY DEPL0YED
Front Stretches 60 Miles from
Adrianople to Visa.

Constantinople, oct. 27.--Reports Of
skirmishing on the right wing Of the
eastern army seems to indicate that the
Bulgarians around Adrianople are still
developing the turning movement. A
dispatch from that city says that the
commander Of the Turkish forces has
issued a proclamation declaring that
the troops Of the garrison have heroi-
cally accomplished the mission required
of them and have now withdrawn in
side the Notifications, which they are
prepared to defend with the courage
demonstrated by their fathers at
Plevna.
According to information emanating
from reliable sources the Sultan has
expressed a desire to accompany the
generals TO the front in order to en-
courage and inspire the troops by his
presence At an extraordinary council
held at the palace all the leading
statesmen advised the Sultan to relin-
quish this plan. I.
Eighty per cent OF the officers who
participated in the fighting on October
% and % were killed or wounded.
The Turkish eastern army is
stretched out for sixty miles between
Visa and Adrianople, and Is engaged
in checking the advance of the Bull
garians, who are trying to push back
the Turks and at the same time to cut
the communications with Constanti-
nople.
No reports were received to-day re-
garding the position OF the western
army. Geographic communication with
Uskub and Salonica having been cut.
AS a consequence the embassies are
without information from the consuls.
| Communication with AdrianopIe is
working comparatively well, although
the embassies cipher kilograms are not
accepted.
An official dispatch from Adrianople
yesterday says that there was no fight
ing in that neighborhood on the previ-
Gus night or that day.

Greeks Received with Open
Arms in Town of Serbia.

says: when we entered the town to

lined the streets, cheering, waving flags
and throwing laurels upon the soldiers.
The Metropolitan conducted us TO the
cathedral, where a TIE Deum was
sung"
From Arta it is reported that Turk
ish and Albanian bands are following
the Turkish army, pillaging Christian
villages and mastering the inhabi-
tants. They have burned several VII
lagos.
The King arrived at Elassona to-day
and received a great ovation. He Wis
tied the hospital and thanked the
wounded for their services to the
Fatherland. He also visited the cathe-
dral, where the Metropolitan greeted
his majesty as King-Liberator. In the
evening the King proceeded to Serbia.
