BATTLE RAGING TODAY
Enormous Loss of Life Admitted in
Balkan Struggle-Egyptian Prince
Shot BY Turks.

Semlin, Hungary, Oct. 3O.-A mes
sage from Sofia today saying the
Bulgarians have postponed their at
tack on Adrianople until Servian re-
Inducements reach them was looked
on here as clinching reports that Gear
Ferdinand had met with a check,
though perhaps not with positive re-
verse.
Servian troops, it was reported, are
already on their way to join the Bull
garian eastern army but it was not
easy to understand how this can be
accomplished without considerable dif-
ficulty and loss of time. So far as
known there is no adequate Servlan
force nearer to Adrianople that the
one operating in the vicinity of Uskub
or Istibe. The quickest way for de-
tachment Of tha,se troops to reach the
Bulgarian right wing would be by rail
from Uskub to Kumnova, thence by
way of Kostendile, to Sofia, and then
on the Oriental Railroad to Adrian
ople.
This Journey would involve about
$50 miles travel over railroad OF so
primitive a character that much haste
is impossible much changing Of trains
and complications. Besides, it was
argued here that the Turks about Us
kub would Immediately take the Of
fensive against the weakened Servlan
force in that vicinity and probably
win back all they have lost.
Budapest Oct. S0.-Servian losses OF
1000 killed ard 1000 wounded since
fighting with Turkey began were semi
officially admitted in dispatches from
Belgrade today. Military men here
believed the actual number of victims
is about twice what the Servians ad-
nit. The Bulgarians have refused
to give out any figures but 1t was estl-
mated that their losses in killed and
wounded thus far exceed 25,OOO.
Athens, Oct. 3O.-The Greeks to-
day captured Verria. They were
within a mile of the town yesterday
1t is strongly fortified and desperate
Turkish resistance is expected.
Constantinople, Oct. 3O.-Azlz Ia
sha, the Egyptian prince, who COM
manded the Turkish cavalry at MIX
Kalissa, was shot here today for tall-
inp to make better showing against
the Bulgarians.
Constantinople, Oct. 3O.-The wild
est enthusiasm was created here TO-
dav bv news that fierce engagement
is in progress between Gen. Nazln
Pasha's main Turkish army just Wes
of Lule Burgas and the invading BuI'
garian forces.
The government, of course, industrl
ously circulated reports that the
Turke were driving the enemy back
ward and that speedy victor yis assur
ed. Really very little was know
about the progress Of the reported
battle.
