Assault Continues
On Constantinople

SOFIA. Nov. S.-Fighting is still go
sng on at the gates of Constantinople
Bulgarian government officials an
nounced that dispatches arriving from,
the front today stated thai the Turkish
forts at Chatalja are being subjected tc
a heavy bombardment from the Bull
garian batteries. A portion of them
are reported to have been captured.
The Bulgarian army south of Adri-
anople has been reinforced by 10000
reservists, who left Stara Zagora on
Tuesday
General Petroff, commander of the
Bulgarian center, is on the firing line
and is personally directing the attack
upon the Turkish forts. Gar Ferdi-
nand's Bulgarian army has now occu-
pied practically all of the available
heights north of Chatalja. All his
heaviest artillery has been masseG
there. and concentrated between the
batteries in the Hollows lies the ole
guard OF the Bulgarian army and the
flower OF the Bulgar troops.
Considerable belief attached here tc
the rumor that Adrianople had fallen
but that the information had been KEEP,
secret to enable the Bulgars to move
their siege guns and troops to the front
without the knowledge of Turkey. An
other reason expressed for Bulgaria
silence was that the Bulgar government
wanted to enter Constantinople, but
feared Intervention before this should
happen If the powers learned of the fall
of Adrianople.
The first Turkish army of Thrace
which Nazim Pasha, minister of war
commanded, has been all but annihl-
lated, it Is said, and the brunt Of the
defense of Constantinople now rests
upon the Asiatic troops and reservists
