FIGHTING RENEWED.
Porte's Cabinet Observation-Disclosures
ere Imminent if Constantinople is 70
Be Abandoned.

Athens, Nov. IA Greek torpedo
boat sank Turkish cruiser in the
Gulf of Salonika last night, accord
ing to message received here today
from the Greek commander.
The cruiser was the Sethfethide-
lund,. 1t carried a crew of 220.
From all that could be learned here
it appeared that the Greek craft tor
pedoed the large Turks hvessel, since
nothing was said of battle between
them.
The torpedo boat was fired on, how
ever, by Turkish shore fort but es-
capped undamaged. 1t entered and left
the gulf under cover of darkness.
The commanders message was sent
from Katerina, a Turkish port which
the Greeks recently captured.
London, Nov. Renewed fighting
between Turks and Bulgarians, with
in sixty miles of Constantinople, was
reported here today. 1t was believed
the Bulgarians were making desperate
efforts to reach and enter the Turkish
capital before the Powers have time
to intervene.
Semlin, Hungary, Nov. l.-Reports
that the Bulgarinasns have captured
had not been positively verified here
today. They were generally accept
ed as true, however ,as was the state
ment that the Bulgarian army was ad-
vancing toward Chatidja. If this Is
true the Turks have now reached the
last chain Of Constantinaa!e defeEs..
The invaders had penetrated approx
mately 100 miles into Turkish terri
tory today.
Constantinople, Nov. In an all
night session of the cabinet ended af-
ter daylight today with the ministers
deadlocked, it was said, concerning the
desirability of suing for peace. Some
believed there was no other course left
to the Sultan. Others favored contlnu
ing the fight until the last Turk is
killed, in preference to surrendering.
Constantsa, Roumania, Nov 1.-The
Sultan's advisers are in terror OF
massacre not only of foreigners but OF
the entire non-combatant population
of Constantinople, and the looting OF
the city, it was stated in messages re-
ceived here today from the Turkish
capital.

DEMOCRATIC RAJ L[Y.K'
TOMORROW NIGHT
Elks' Hall to be Scene of
Grand Old Time Party
Gathering.
PROMINENT SPEAKERS.
All Members of Party Expected to Be
Present--Thrilling Speeches Will be
Delivered. :.

AS is generally the case with DEM
ocrats of this city, the great rally OF
the party is, the demonstration on the
eve of an election. While there has
been but little public demonstration
in Alexandria during the Presidential
campaign now about to close, the po-
litical situation has been uppern ost IN
the community, and the interchange
of opinion has at times been printed.
1t was, of course, realized from the
first that Alexandria was in the Will
son column to stay, and that the cand-
idacy of Taft and Roosevelt herea-
bouts, at least, were side shows to be
classed with the prohibition or sut-
fragette tickets.
The rally arranged for tomorrow
night at the Elks Hall will as has ever
been the case, be largely attended, bat
it is earnestly urged by the members
of the Wilson Marshall -Carlin Club,
and the city democratic commit .e
that every member of the party be
present. They may hear nothing new
concerning the various issues now be-
fore the American people, as they
have been thoroughly threshed out,
but they will surely hear much cal
culated to strengthen their cow :
tions in the platform of their party.
Be.ides this, the fact that their stand
ard bearers are in the lead will add
to their enthusiasm.
The announcement that Senator
Thomas S. Martin, of Virginia; Rep
rcsentative John N. Garner, of Texas;
Representative C. C. Carlin, Of tie
Eighth Congressional Distrilt of Vlr-
ginia, and Robert A. Hutchison, of
Prince William county, the democratic
elector for this district, will speak
will be sufficient to fill the hall. There
is also probability that Representa-
tive Oscar W. Underwood, of Ala
bama, will be present.
The opera house having been en-
CARED for other purposes for Sa;u day
l,ipht, the rally will be held in TIE
aud'torium of the Elks Ho"e
Judge J. K. NJ. Norton, president Of
tire club, will be out of the city Sat
'j,day night, -and Vice President Will

Their coats are sleek and show a good
healthy color which should make them

ANXIETY IN EUROPE.
Probable OutcOme'of Balkan War Dis
cussed by Powers.

cussed by Powers.
Paris, Nov. diplomats mere re-
gard the Balkan situation with the
deepest anxiety today Austria, it is
true, seems more reasonable than vas
expected but it was realized that the
Vienna governments patience cannot
be imposed on too far and Bulgaria
appeared to go beyond this limit.
As usual, it was said, the powers
have delayed to long. They should
have been prepared, good judges de-
clare,to intervene unitedly and ener-
geticaIly, the instant the psychological
moment arrived. The moment had ar
rived, however, and the chancelories
were still only negotiating"
1t was considered toss-up whether
a program can be agreed on before
the Bulgarians enter Constantlnorle.
Once established there, it was the con-
census of opinion there vii !5e no dis
lodging them except by force. Aus
tria is believed ready to resort TO force
in sue han extremity, and if Austria
thrusts an armed force into the situa-
ton nothing but a miracle, il was
asserted, can prevent other nations
from being drawn into the difficulty.
Premier Poipcare was in almost
continuous conference with the ambas-
sadors representing the various pow
ers here and the Premier OF Greece
and foreign minister of Servla were
expecting authority to join in the dis
cussion. Bulgaria, however, showed
little interest in it, and it is of what
BULGARIA may do that diplomats were
most afraid.
Aside from the question Of Bulga-
rian occupation of Constantinop!e,
only one of the powerS-RussIa-wlil
be pleased with the upbuildlng OF
strong federation of states in the near

Petersburg.
Berlin, Nov. Military men here
today were shocked with the complete
ness of the defeat which it was re-
ported the Turks have finally sutt-
cred in their fighting with the Bull
garians.
The Turkish army was trained on
German lines and by German lnStduc-
tors, with the great Soldier General,

kan states military education has been
mainly in the hands of French officers.
The outcome, in its way, is distinct

BY RAILROADS
THROUGH TARIFFS INCREASE ee.
CAUSE OF DECREASED SHORT
HAUL CHARGES.

San Francisco, July 25.--The an.
nouncement Of sweeping advance In

instances amounting to as mach as
100 per cent, was made today at the
general offices OF the Southern Pacific
and Santa Fe Railway companies. fol-
lowing the receipt Of advance copies
of tho new rate tariffs from eastern
officials. These increases are due, so
the companies state. to the rigid en-.
forcement Of the long and short haul
laws and the successful complaint OF
intermediate POINTS against terminal
points bassd ON water competition.
Westbound rates are principally effect
ed. principally as to shipments OF less
than carload lots. All California prod
ucts going east after August 10 will
move under an advance ranging from
rs to 100 per cent. On September 2.
the. westbound rate becomes operative
at sufficient increase to destroy all
benefit OF water competition now en-.
joyed by shippers.
All coast seaports will feel the
change heavily. since these rates be-
tween terminals will be made on the
same scale as terminal rates them
selves. Heretofore the merchants of
the coast have had the advantage Of
water competition as against eastern
competitors
The new rates were compiled at
Chicago by the chief freight and traf-
fic officials of the roads concerned.
