Note Handed Turkey

Constantinople, October 10-The coliec- tive note of the five powers was handed to the Turkish foreign minister by the Austrian representative today. It is un- derstood that the note embodies an offer to discuss with the porte the realization of reforms in European Turkey on the basis of the declaration of the Rumelian com mission of 1888.
 Little weight Is attached to the note as 1t is expected that after its considers- ton by the council the porte will make formal reply that Turkey has already undertaken the reform question.
 The belief is held here that 1t will be impossible for the powers to prevent con flict. According to the best information Bulgaria would already have followed the example of Montenegro. but requires enather six days to complete her prepara- lions. Greece and Servia require a still longer time to make ready.
 According to an official report the Mon- tenegrins have sustained a defeat in their attack on Berana. But the fighting con tinues in that district. It is reported also that the Bulgarian attack against soguchuk and Yonilsepeh. in the Dospat region, has been repulsed. The Bulgarian posts in the Tinfrush zone have been re- inforced. Corresponding measures are be- ing adopted on the Turkish side.
