BULGAR|ANS MEET
STIFF RES|STENCE
ADVANCE ON CHATLJA LINE At
EXPENSE OF HEAVY
SACRIFICES.
CHOLERA KILLS SCORES.
Refugees in constantinopIe Die By
Thousands-EarIy Arrange
ment of Armistice
Probable.

London. Nov. lS.-Bulgaria terms
OF peace to Turkey, rs reported at
Vienna and sent from that city by the
correspondent of the Daily Telegraph
consist Of seven stipulations
Included in the first stipulation is
the surrender of Tchatalja army and
Its withdrawal, guarded by Bulgarians
The second provides for the evacu
alton by the Turks of Adrianople,
scutari, Monastir and Janina.
The third calls for payment of a
war indemnity.
The fourth demands the surrender
of conquered territory.
The fifth calls for the internationali
cation of Constantinople.
The sixth provides for opening the
Dardanelles and making Saloniki a
free port.
AS the censorship permits no news
to come from the front the situation at
the scene of the fighting in the Bal.
kans is more perplexing than ever.
Various reports have drifted in. how.
ever; among them that Adrianople has
fallen, that the Bulgarians had cap.
tured Hademkeui, the Headquarters of
the Turkish commander-in-chief. that
Nazim Pasha had capitulated and that
the Bulgarians, either by sea or land,
had reached the vicinity of Kilos, on
the Black sea coast, a short distance
from Constantinople. These reports
still are without confirmation.
vague dispatch is published at So
fla stating that six forts along the
Tchatalja lines have been captured
after what are described as heavy sac
rifices on the part of the Bulgarians.
All reports previously published
through the Reichpost of Vienna or
emanating from other sources, go to
show that the Bulgarians are having
no easy time.
What, perhaps is of graver import
than the progress of the hostilities in
southeastern Europe, however. is the
revelation of the tremendous ravages
cholera is making, not only among the
destitute refugees who daily are dying
in thousands in Constantinople, but
among the Turkish troops.
Constantinople dispatch to the Co.
logne Gazette declares that Bulgaria
has abandoned her intentions to enter
Constantinople, being thus advised by
Russia and Great Britain. Though the
report that an armistice already has
been arranged has not been confirmed,
oil indications point in that direction.
II Turks Fighting Well.
Vienna.-The correspondent Of the
Neus Erie Press telegraphs his paper
as follows:
4 THE Turks are fighting with the ut
most bravery and desperation. Every
soldier is fighting not for the success
of the whole army. but for his own in
dividual existence"

. Washington, Nov. 18.-The banking
resources of the United States DUR
ing the last four years have exceeded
by billions the record Of any similar

During the four years ending June
/, 1912, the resources of all banks in
the country-national. states and priv.
ate-increased from $19,5S3,OOO 900 to
$25,9S5. 100000 or an increase of $5,-
403,000,000. The nearest approach to
this enormous figure was the $4,413,.
100000 increase for the four years
ending June, 1904, as compared with
the previous four-year period.
Individual deposits likewise broke
all records, increasing from 1908 to
1912 by $4,239, 100000 Loans and dis
counts also established new record,
increasing by 100000 since
June, 1908.

Washington, Nov. 18. That the

in his annual report to the secretary
OF war, which was made public here
today
While the chief engineer Of the big

work that was done during the fiscal

an end and vessels will be threading
