battle was thirty miles long. Accord

troops were estimated at eighty thou

the Turkish commander. in chief,
has been ordered to resume opsr-
ations.
Naz,n Pasha, eommsndsr.in-

that the Bulgarians have fallen
back. at certain points as much az
4ka miles from the Turkish lines.
A number Of wounded and many
dead were found in the Bulgarian
trenches"
Heavy firing, presumably by
naval guns, was again audible to-
day.
- Peace Terms Considered.
London, Nov. 2i.--The generals of
the opposing forces today are discuss
ing terms. while the armies stand at
ease Nothing yet has leaked out as
10 the course Of the negotiations. but
IL is expected In official circles here
something definite will be made known
later today.
The positions of both armies must
rapidly become untenable in the face
OF the ravages of cholera. which is
more deadly than the guns and this
probably will prove an additional mo-
tive in arriving at an early settlement.
The Bulgarian losses in dead and
wounded during the fighting at Tcha-
talJa total eight thousand according
to official advices telegraphed by Il
special correspondent from Constanti-
nople today. Terrific damage was
done 10 the Bulgarian column which
attacked the Turkish left wing, par
ticularly by shells from the Turkish
war ships One OF these fell on a Bull
garian ammunition train, which ex-
ploded, resulting in a great loss of
life.
The Turkish grand vizier In a state-
ment today TO a correspondent of the
Daily Mail, said:
THE Bulgarian terms of peace are
impossible and unless radically al
tered the war will continue The Bull
garians ask for the surrender Of
Adrianople. Scutari Janima and the
Tchatalja lines"
The cnly hope of peace, the corres-
pondent adds, now seems TO lie in the
fact that these demands probably were
determined on before the unsuccessful
attacks by the Bulgarians on the
Tchatalja lines.

f. Wilkinson OF the excise commission
and recently elected president Of the Ma
tional Hay association has returned to
the city after attending the convention in
Kansas City. He is enthusiastic over the
park and boulevard system OF that place
and said the work there was an inspira-
ton for every southern city.
In telling of the park work there Mr..
Wilkinson said that $40, 100000 had already
been spent and authority was being asked
for s6,0O0,00o more.
THE parks OF Kansas city and boue-
ward system is fine" said Mr.. Wilkinson
yesterday. I'VE were carried over so
miles of oiled roads there that are the
finest l have ever seen. The city has $50
miles of such roadways We travelled
in string of automobiles n mile long
and the ease and comfort Of that trip
made an impression upon every visitor TO
the city. Everyone leaves Kansas City
enthusiastic over the parks ara streets OF
the place. I am certainly glad that Bir-
mingham is imbued with the ambition OF
getting first class roadways and parks.

gives more pleasure to the residents"

THOMPSON'S TERM
OF OFFICE SHORT
S. I. Wright of Fayette and
DR.. U. G. Mason, Colored,
Suggested for Place

In republican circles IL Is believed
the letter of J. o. Thompson to Score
tary MacVeagh declining to resign as
internal revenue collector will cause the
official secapltation of Mr.. Thompson
within the next few days The fact
was pointed out by Mr. Thompson that
President Taft holds the power of re-
moval and ut will now probably be
executed. In official circles 1t has been
generally known for some time that
the President was loath to remove Mr..
Thompson or any other Roosevelt men
for his political faith alone. However,
since Secretary MacVeagh has openly
given his position on the matter 1t is
believed the President will not much
longer refrain from naming success
sor to Mr. Thompson.
In connection with a successor to MIR.
Thompson the best tip" Is understood
to be that Seab T. Wright of Fayette
Will get the plum. He has been In
dorsed by the two referees for the posi-
ton, 1t is asserted, and has been ex-
pecting the position for some time. Mr..
Wright has been loyal to President Taft
and has rendered excellent service to
the cause. Local Taft republicans were
unwilling yesterday to discuss the sug-
gestion that Or. U. G. Mason, the well
known negro physician would get the
place. However. Assistant United
States Attorney Kennemar who was
asked about 1t, said there was not the
remotest chance of DIR. Masons land
ing. His opinion is that Mr.. Wright
will be appointed by reason of the in
dorsement already given.

FAMOUS SCHOONER
is SEEN IN CITY
Drawn by Six Magnificent Oxen the
"Budweiser Wagon" Attracts
Lot of Attention

Although fracturing no speed records,
six oxen and a Budweiser prairie schooner
have travelled over the United States and
Birmingham. Laden with it's freight of
rusty guns and decorated with skins of
deer, coons and Wildcats, the wagon,
drawn by six beautiful oxen, has attracted
quite a bit of attention in Birmingham
and has proved to be a neat and artistic
advertisement.
Attended by two men, the 3loo pound
prairie schooner has toured the United
States Freighted about in special car
from city to city throughout the country
as an advertisement of Budweiser beer,
the oxen have been from San Francisco to
New York and from Chicago to New Or
leans. However, 1t has taken four years
for the animals to complete the journey
A peculiar fact which attracts atten-
ton is that the oxen are shod. Travelling
over the hard roads of the city and the
soft roadways In the smaller towns, II
was found to be impossible to let the oxen
pull the heavy wagon without shoes upon
their feet The steers have been over
the city, but the best time made has been
clare that they are yet to be arrested
for exceeding the speed limits
In 1909. seeing what a wonderful adj
vertlsement and novelty 1t would be, the
Budweiser firm decided to start the oxen
about the country. Eight of the most
beautiful and sleekest beasts of burden
which could be secured were bought at
fancy price. A tour of the middle
west was made the first year and the west
was toured during 1910. The east was
toured last summer, while the Budweiser
firm shipped the oxen through the south

POLICE FORCE STILL
AFTER THE FIRE BUGS
Bodeker States He Did Not Advance
Theory White People Started
the Fires

The police are still after the East
Birmingham fire bugs, and both the
white and co1ored citizens are keeping
a sharp watch out for any one who
attempts to fire any more houses.
negroes.
The publication of the theory that
the recent fires among the negro sec
ton of East Birmingham were the work
of white residents to Gust the negroes
has caused quite discussion and the
residents of that district are indig-
nant over the report.
Chief Bodel<er said yesterday; II did
not advance any theory about the white
residents of East Birmingham wishing
to run the negroes out of their district,
nor have intimated any such a thing.
think that the citizens of this sec
ton are lawabiding people and they
deserve credit for their indignation"
The theory that white residents. hav-
ing a grudge against the negroes, were
taking this means to run them away
was advanced by certain officers who
are interested in the case. The theory.
dllHOuBu iOt ihiPiiSatlHb al " tHo
white residents of East Birmingham,
was that there might be some white
people who held a grudge against the
negroes, or disliked their proximity.
G.. W. Leggett, who lives at Fiftieth
street and Tenth avenue, and who re-
sents tie implication that the white
residents would be SO mean as to run
the negroes out of their homes, last
night made the following statement II
have lived in East Birmingham for the
past seven years, and I do not believe
that there is a more law abiding or
peaceable lot of negroes in Jefferson
county I am. sure that none of the
best citizens of our district hold any
grudge against the negroes. We who
live In East Birmingham wish to re-
lieve the feelings of the solored folks
as well as to quiet the Indignation
among our neighbors. and whoever
started the theory evidently does not
know the conditions that exist in East
Birmingham or that the East Birming-
ham negroes are among the best.
I'VE wish to correct the false i'm
preston and say that the colored peo-
ple who live in East Birmin CHAM are
law abiding, and the majority of themf
are land owners and have paid for
their homes"
