dero will interfere no more in the case
of Gen. Felix Diaz, who has been con
demned to death at Vera Cruz. This

triely by the law

be executed in accordance with the de-
cree of the court martial in spite of the
supreme court, according to the disquiet-
ing rumor which reached the capital yes

l0NG-AWAITED BATTLE
IS BEING FOUGHT
Result Is Expected to Decide the Fate
of Turkey in the War with
the Balkans.

London. Oct. 30.-'Thc long awaited
battle which will decide the fate OF
Turkey is now being fought. The army
under Nazm Pasha, minister of wal
and commander-in-ch is engaged, and
according to Constantinople official dis
patches the operations are favorable to
the Ottomans. The dispatches do not
indicate where the chief action is TAX
ing place or how the opposing forces
compare.
1t is Turkeys last chance to retrieve
an almost hopeless campaign. Nazih
Pasha is fighting with his back TO the
wall. His communications have been
cut and it is impossible for him to get
fresh supplies or reinforcements.
In Constantinople the feeling of con-
fidence is reviving 1t is believed that
the war minister has at last assumed
the offensive. But this is by no means
certain, as the battle may have been
forced upon him.
Sofia dispatches indicate continued
forward movement of the Bulgarians,
but give no details. There is still no
OF the reported capture of
Lule Burgas. Demotica and Drama. The
Bulgarians are still fighting in the direc-
tion of Visa in pursuance of their plan
to advance to the extreme east in the
direction of Constantinople.
The Greeks also are marching. with
to their credit, towards Salon
Xxi where feeling of extreme anxiety
is said to prevail and provisions are run
ming short The fact that no apparent
effort is being made to stem the Greek
advance to Saloniki is held to Indicate
that the bulk of Turkeys army there
has been transferred to Thrace.
No recent information has been re-
,eived of the operations around Scutari
or other points to the west, and Sofia
observed significant silence.

HUGE FIGHTING CRAFT

New York, Oct. 30.-The superdread-
nought New York, the greatest of the

ence Of 10000 persons, including Presi-

TURKEY HEARD OF BATTLE.
Important Engagement Along the Whole
Front.

/ Constantinople, Oct. 30.--The minister
of war advised the government that al
important battle was in progress yester
day afternoon along the whole front and
that the Turkish troops were gaining
ground.
| The departure of the foreign military
attaches for the field OF operations
which was fixed for noon yesterday, was
| postponed at the last moment. They
may not leave for day or two.
A late telegram received from Nazim
Pasha says that the battle begun today
is still being waged with great violence.
He adds that the situation for the Otto
man troops is very favorable.
Another official despatch reports fight
ing yesterday between Uskub Dere to
the east OF Kirk Killisseh, and Visa.
Two battalons of Bulgarians were cut
off from the main body and sustained
heavy losses.
Fightin. continues between the Greeks
and Turks in the Kosani region of
Macedonia According to reports given
out. the Greeks are being driven back
Dispatches dated three days ago give
the first news received here OF the pre-
carious position Of the western army,
which is admitted to be grave. II was as
serted, however, that considerable
force was still concentrated at Nese dis
putting the advance of the Servans and
Bulgarians.
New Grand Vizier.
Kamil Pasha, president OF the council
of state. assumed the office of grand Vi
zier yesterday afternoon in succession
to Chazi Moukhtar Pasha, who resigned.
An imperial decree commands the new
grand vizier to prosecute the war with
all energy in order to secure victorious
issue.
Although all the changes ip the cabi-
net have not vet been made, it is an
nounced that Nazim Pasha will be re-
tanned as minister of foreign affairs.
JemalIedn Pasha will also be retained
as Sheik Ul-Islam.
The change in the grand vizierate is
not expected materially to influence
either the internal or external situation
When Kiamil Pasha three months ago
accepted the presidency of the council,
he became the dominant figure of the
'abinet and it was foreseen that he
would succeed TO the grand vizierate at
III opportune moment.
The motives for the resignation of |
Pasha are not known. 1t is |
that he began to feel that the |
esponsibility for the crisis was burden |
iome, while the unfavorable reports cur
-ent with regard to the i'll success of |
lis sons operations against the Bulga-
ians doubtless caused him much /
hagrin.
The retention of Nourandunghian
'ssha as foreign minister shows that no
tartling innovations in the foreign pol
cy are likely.
