LONDON, Nov l5.-As the CENSOR
the front. the situation at the scana
Of the lighting IN the Balkans Is moro
perpleXing than ever tonight VAR
ious reports have drifted In, however
among them that Adrianople has fal-
len, that the Bulgarlans had captur-
ed lladcmkeui. the headquarters OF
the Turkish Commander-in-ch that
Nazlm Pasha. the Turkish generals
slmo, had capitulated, and that tho
Bulgarlans either 10y land or sea, had
reached the vicinity of kilios. on tho
Black Sea coast. "A short distance from
Constantinople. These reports are
stlll without confirmation, A vague
dispatch Is published at Sofia stat
ing that six forts along the TchatalJa
line had been captured after what
has been described heavy losses on
the part Of the Bulgarlans.
All the reports previously publish
ed through the Vienna Reichspost. or
emanating from other sources, go to
show that the Bulgarlans are having
no easy task. Nothing Is known as
to whether the battle continues. The
British government ha6 received no
news from the seat of war for some
days
What perhaps. is of graver impor-
tance than the progress Of the hos
tllities in southeastern Europe is the
revelation of the tremendous Z wages
cholera Is making. not only among
the destitute refugees who daily are
arriving In thousands Mt CONSTANT
nople. but among the Turkish troops
on--t tha---Tspsteite--itnes II Is sup
posed that the danger might suffice
to give the Bulgarian commanders
pause and induce the Bulgarians to
arrange an armistice and negotiate
peace, since all the practical objects
for which the war was undertaken
already have been secured, and there
fore, II Is useless TO run the risk of
an epidemic of cholera In the Bull
garan army for the sake of formal
entry into Constantinople to avoid
which, It Is believed the Turks are
ready to agree to almost any terms.
A significant article appeared in
the Bulgarian government organ Mir.
II declares that peace is imminent
and holds out the olive branch to
Turkey to enter into n good under
standing with the Balkan league.
Constantlnople dispatch to the
Cologne Gazette declares that Bull
garla has abandoned her intention to
enter Constantnople, being thus ad-
vlsed by Russia and Great Britain.
Altogether the report that an armis-
tlce already has been arranged has
not been confirmed, all indications
Toint in that direction, and It may bo
supposed that the terrible conditions
Of famine and destitution prevailing
among the refugees in the nelghbor-
hood of Constantlnople which are
calculated to provide a hotbed for tho
spread for cholera, may have some
thing to do with Bulgaria's decision.
From other points at the seat Of
war comes news OF the occupation OF
the peninsula OF Mount Athos by the
Greeks and the march of the Greek
army from Saloniki to Join in the Ser
Wan attack on Monastlr. This at
tack, according to Belgrade 5,s-
patch, began yesterday with an en-
counter between Turkish and Servian
cavalry near the city Of Monastir.
A report received at Berlin as
serts that disorders arc occurring at
Salonikl Bulgarian and Greek SOL
dlers are said to be plundering tnd
maltreating the Mohammedan inhab-
itants who are beseging the foreign
consulates for protection.
