General Ziykovich, commanding the
western Servian army reports Servian
losses in taking Pristina extraordina-
rily large though exceeded by the Turk
ish casualties. Servian officials were i'm
mediately established in Pristina. Some
alarm Is felt lest the supply Of rifle
cartridges should run out, and the
cartridge factory at Makriko is work.
ing day and night 1t can, however
produce only a quarter million daily, or
little more than one for every man in
the field, and this is quite insufficient
when the numerous forces are engaged
Though the capture Of Kumanova ia
doubtful II appears certain that the
Servians have taken Presovo half WAY
from Buian. The strength OF the Turks
in the Sanjax of Novibazar and Old
Servia is estimated at forty thousand
men and four batteries Of artillery
The Seryian artillery has shown itself
superior 10 that Of the Turks. The
junction Of the Seryian and Montere-
grin forces I'm the Lin Valley is re-
ported. POSSIBLY nreuatureIv but car
tainly II will be effected in q few devs
cutting off the Turkish troops at Prev
| lie, from the south.
A dispatch from Athens at 1870
o'clock this morning says that the
Greeks are moving northward In hot
pursuit Of the Turks. They captured
the town OF Serbia after fierce battle

and the Crescent In deadly combat. At
midnight the fight lulled' a desultory
cannon fire alone being maintained.
The Greeks bivouacked on the ground
they had retained, ana when morning
broke 1t was seen that the TURKS were
retreating from the lower nils guard
ing the entrance TO the defile and con-
centrating their strength on the topmost
fortihcations in order to protect the
retreat of the main body to Serbia.
The evacuation of the lower hills
