Jacksonville, Fla, Nov. 1O.--There
seems to be no end to the street car
strike situation in view, the company
and the striking trainmen still hold
ing out. 1t was said today, however,
that 80 of the old men had broken
ranks and applied for reinstatement.
This could not be verified.
The only trouble reported was on
Highway avenue, men and boys hav-
ing thrown missiles into passing cars,
despite the presence of the militiamen
who were strung out along the entire
line. Cars on al! other lines were
operated without trouble and were
well patrOniZed.
1t was announced. tonight that the
street car company would withdraw
service from the Highway section
temporarily on account Of the many
attacks State troops are still on duty
throughout the city and will probably
remain here during the present week.

TELL OF TURKISH DEFEAT.

Vienna. Nov. 10.-The correspond
ent Of the Reichspost at Bulgarian
headquarters says:
"The bulgarian attack on the
Tchatalja lines is progressing success
fully. Further points on the Turkish
outpost lines have been captured. The
decisive attack will be carried with
such force that the Bulgarians will
reach the gates of Constantinople
simultaneously with the fleeing Tur-
kish troops. BY immediate occupa-
tion of the capital they prevent diplo-
matte interference and a massacre"
The Rcichspost cOntradicts the re-
port that common action at Belgrade
by the Austrian, German and Italian
ministers is intended. 1t says Austria
will continue TO treat the Servian de-
mands with good will and calmness
The monarchy is only an excuse the
paper says, to preserve Albania's ma
tional and political freedom and in
this has the support Of its allies. The
assurance that Scrvia would not for
uty her national harbor gave little
security, and. the paper adds, Ser
Was passage through Alabnia can
not be conceded.
The Socialist labor party held n
monster mass meeting today to pro-
test against the war. Resolutions
were adopted and the workmen

Belgrade, Nov. To- Deibra, As
miles southwest Of Prizend, in Ala
bania vas taken by the Servians yes
terday after severe fighting, accord
ing to private advices. The rem
nants of the Turkish Macedonian
army had assembled there. The same
reports say that Monastir has sur
rendered. Maj. Popovich, in COM
mand Of the Servian cavalry, has
captured Dajran with 1000 Turks.
The third Servian army is we'll on
it's way towards the Adriatic but pro-
gress is slow on account of the bad
roads. 1t is expected that Durazzo
will be taken in a day or two. Duraz-
70 is one Of the ports which Servia has
announced her intention of seizing
and holding.
This determination to occupy one
or more Adriagic ports against the
desire Of Austria is absolutely earnest
All political parties have announced
their readiness 20 support the gov
ernment, come what may.

The disease is getting a firmer hold

TURKISH SITUATION WORSE.

ConstantinOple, Nov. 10.-The TURK
ish- h-Balkan war situation has taken a
turn for the worse. A grave internal
crisis seems to be impending. On .he
one hand the position Of the Turkish
government is seriously compromised
because the army repudiates the me-
diation proposals. On the other hand
the committee of union and pro-
gressive is giving evidence Of renewed
activity, while Turkish feeling, both
nationanl and religious, is being work
ed to fever pitch by the preaching in
the mosques and the impassioned Ian
gage of the press. The most serious
feature is the weakness Of the GOV
ernment in having. first, to apply fer
mediation to secure an armistice later
requiring mediation pure and simple,
and then being virtually obliged TO
yield to the army which repudiate me-
diation. Probably only the fact that
the powers have not replied to the re-
quest for mediation prevented a min
isterial crisis and extricated the gov
ernment from the situation, as it will
not now be called upon to take action.
The committee of union and prog
ress has taken up strongly the cry of
mo surrender" The newspapers,
famine and Yeni Gazeta, have been
suspended for printing violent COM
ments.
