London, Oct. s1.-The silence Of Sofia
concerning the great battle in Thrace
has at last been broken by brief
dispatch announcing a Bulgarian VIC
tory and the capture Of the town OF
Iule Burgas.
This dispatch and equally laconic
dispatches from the Turkish conf
mander contain the only news yet
available, and still leaves the situation
rather obscure.
The message from Sofia apparently
refers to early events, while the dis
patch OF Nazim Pasha. the Turkish
minister of war, describes two battles.
one a sortie from Adrianople In the
direction of Maras. the other in the
direction Of Visa. from which 1t must
be inferred that the engagements are
extending over a long front.
A Sofia dispatch sent before the
capture of Lule Burgas was known.
throws new light on the disposition
OF the Turkish forces. 1t is evident
that 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
q second line from Demotica to Lule
Burgas.
Broke Through Second Line.
Both sides claim victory. but there
is no reason to doubt that the Turk
ish second line Of defense had been
broken. Up to the present the Bull

more reliable than the Turkish.

concerning the demoraliza-

ish forces would predicate further de-
feats, considerable doubts are ~ex-
pressed here as to the position of the
Bulgarians, whose continually extend
ing lines Of communication and the
necessity Of keeping a large investing

a source Of danger II Nazim Pasha is

That the Bulgarians are bringing up
