 Turks Claim Victory.
 Maxim Pasha, the Turkish com mander in chief, in a despatch this evening claims to have repulsed the Bulgarian attack and destroyed Nthree Bulgarian batteries.

 Every day brings fresh despatches 1 recording the terrible spread of chol l. era. It is now stated that there are q thousand cases daily with nortal- ity of 50 per cent, while the Turkish authorities are impotent to take any measures to prevent it's further spread. This being the case, it is still doubt
 
 the danger of a march on Constanti- | nOple. It is, therefore, believed that hostilities have been resumed to hurry the acceptance of whatever terms the allies dictate. Powers to Lard Detachmenfs.
