she failed to break the champagne
bottle on the vessels bow. She struck
the vessel with the bottle three times,
but not with sufficient force to break
the glass. AS the vessel was sliding
down the ways, however, a man
grasped the rope to which was at:
tached the bottle and swung with
such force that it cleared the New
York's PROV and burst on the port
side.

BATTLES RAGING
OVER LONG FRONT
BOTH SIDES ARE CLAIMING VIC
TORY IN THE BALKANS.
LULEBURGAS TAKEN.

Evident, However, That Allies Have
Broken the Second Turkish
Line of Defense.

London, England.-The silence OF
Sofia concerning the great battle In
Thrace has at last been broken by
q brief dispatch announcing a Bulga'
rian victory and the capture of the
town of Luleburgas.
This dispatch and equally laconic
dispatches from the Turkish com
mander contain the only news yet
available, and still leave the situation
rather obscure.
The message from Sofia apparently
refers to earlier events, while the
dispatches of Nazim Pasha, the Turk.
ish minister of war, describes two
battles, one a sortie from Adrianople
in the direction of Maras, the other in
the direction Of VIA, from which 1t
must be inferred that the engage.

front.
A Sofia dispatch sent before the
capture of Luleburgas was known
throws a new light on the di+sposi-
ton of the Turkish forces. 1t is evil
dent earlier reports Of the taking Of
this town were premature. 1t appears
that the Turks first line of defense
extended along the Erkene river, with
a second line from Demotica to Lule-
burgas.

revelations concerning the demorali-

predicate further defeats, considerable

ton of the capital.
Wireless operators, professional and
amateur, on one side of the globe,
probably had their instruments at
their ears, straining to catch the
faint buzzzes as the powerful appara-
tus sputtered out its calls for Pan
anna, Colon and the Atlantic coast
navy stations.
Down in the sound proof operating
room, windowless and protected by
double doors, some of the navy's most
experienced operators, directed by
Lieutenant Woodwork, sent out the
first flashes. a.

1,7s5 miles away, was sent hurting
through the ether. At intervals, the
instruments spanked off MAR, the
call for Key West, CTS miles of. No
official messages were sent, but the
results of the tests were noted at all
stations on the Atlantic coast as well
as Key West and Colon
The radius Of the new plant will be
5000 miles. This range, probably the
acme Of wireless operations, will be
attained gradually and it may be
weeks before the big plant Is tuned
up to it's highest efficiency. Com
munication with the Pacific coast will
be attempted only at night for the
present, but later on throughout the
day the secretary Of the navy at his
desk in Washington will be within
instantaneous communication with
Key West, Guantanamo, Colon, the
naval coaling stations, the winter
maneuver grounds and all Atlantic
stations. When the plant is working
perfectly and the. chain Of stations Is
completed Washington will be In
touch with Hawaii, Samoa, Guam, the
Philippines and Pearl harbor. )
