Line is Strengthened.
In order to prevent the enemy from
breaking through the Turkish main
position the line has been considerably
strengthened during the past few days.
For the first time in this war the
Turk has now done some spade work.
Evidently the terrible lesson learned
at Lule- Burgess when the Turks were
without cover has been taken to heart.
Miles OF excellent trenches affording
ample shelter for the defending infan-
try has been constructed along the en-
tire length of the main position. The
advancing enemy, if II intends to
force Mademkeni must first cross q
Broad, gently unduiating valley BIZ
sected by a fordable stream and at
tack the hills beyond. These hills are
defended by forts bristiing with guns
and entrenched infantry 1t would be
impossible for the Bulgarians to force
n passage further south Of Hadem-
keni The Turkish left is protected by
the wide sweep of Biyuk Chekemeje
Lake. IN the Astuary itself are four
Turkish warships. whose guns during
the last two days have been trained
on the enemy.
The Bulgarians in the neighbor-
hood of Tchatalja have recently been
heavily reinforced, and another army
is advancing against the Turkish right
defended by the Third corps, under
Mahmond Mukhtar Pasha. Today the
Turkish warships in Biyuk Chekmeie
bay shelled the Rulgarians heading
for the hills opposite. The latter not
to be outdone In international cour-
tesN turned some Of their heavy guns
against the forts near Hademkcni.
These are the prelimnaries to a
great battle which may be regarded
as imminent.

MUSTAPHA. PASHA. Nov. IL
There was the sound of much firing
to the northeast of Adrianople Fri
day night. This probably indicates
fresh sorties by the Turks, and their
being repused by the Bulgarian artil-
lery.
Rumors Of the surrender of Adria-
nople are still prevalent, but unless
the Turkish garrison has been com
pletely demoralized blythe news Of
Turkish defeats at Tchatalja, and
other points of the war, and by hun
ger, such reports are difficult to be-
lieve.
Most Of the forts are still intact.
The defenders are reputeda to possess
nine hundred guns. ranging from the
heavy ordnance to machine guns.
Another report coming from Adria-
nople states that the garrison has
been on short rations for the past
fortnight, and are now reduced to
one biscuit a day. and that there is
little forage for the horses.

There was Il report heard tonight
that Judge Golf may decide to charge
the jury as soon as the prosecution
ends its plea for conviction. If so, the
four gangsiers may know their doom
before midnight tomorrow.
1t Is said to be the opinion of the
prosecution that it has built up a
much stronger case against Lefty
Louise, "Gyp the Blood" Whitley
Lewis" and "Dago Frank" than against
Becker In addition to practically
all the evidence presented against the
master conspirator of the murder, the
State also produced the story Of Will

cara story replere with detail and

Testimony Not Given.
Indeed, so complete did the state
regard the evidence, il produced, that
a number of witnesses who could have
testified were not called. For exam
pie, Gertrude Elliott, who had apart
ments at number 35s West Fifty
eighth street was ready to swear that
last April 'Gyp tito Blood" attacked
her with a revolver and tore the ear

Although Lefty Whitley and
"Gyp' united in an alibi for "Dago
Frank" lawyers who attended the trial
said they did not believe this would
result In different verdict for him
than for the rest. 1t was pointed out
that to offset this phase of the de-
tense, the prosecution had introduced
much stronger evidence against "Dago
