 CHOLERA BREAKS OUT.
 CONSTANIINOPLE. \ov. H. More serious than the threatened capture ol the city by The Bul4arlans is the rapid spread ot cholera, which made it's appearance amon@ the wounded soldiers here q few days ago Not uuH have the troops Il this city fallen victims to the plague. but reports from the odt ltime provinces indicate that tht entire army is seriously cndan-er el. and il is believed that the dread disease WiII spread throughout th, entire peninsula.
 Conditions here are appalling The wounded soldiers who haNt been crowded into the hospitals like sheep in d pen are dying off by the hundreds and owing 10 the crowded condition Of the city and lack of proper medical aid. there l. little hope of preventing the disease rom becoming general throushouj the city.
