Rejoicing In Belgrade.

Especial War Correspondent OF the
International News Service.p
BELGRADE, Oct. GA telegram
was received here today from the Rus
sian emperor congratulating King Pc
ter on the bravery of the Servian
troops. particularly In the battle Of
Kumanova, where II is now reported
that f4.6tt Turks were killed.
In the panic following the Sersian
victory at tlskub, the Turks threw
away all their weapons, cut the traces
of their artillery horses, and galloped
off. Others fought and ki.ied each
other, seeking places in carriages
bound for Saionika. The latest ac-
counts show that two hundred can
non have been taken by the Ssrvians
up To date.
Repeated Turkish massacres are
goading the now well armed ChTis'
tians TO retaliation. Intense indlgna
ton prevails over Servia because OF
the killing OF Colonel Ghtchich b!
the Turks, who, having deeap4tatee
him, carried away the head.
Novakovitch, a young Seryian. who
ia United States deputy consul here,
in an address last night. fired his au-
dience by declaring:
The cross must chase the crescent
from Belgrade TO Bakiau.
There is a touch of romantic pathos
in the fact that the only young CIR
received into the Servian army at the
front has been wounded.
Before leaving for military head
quarters to consult with King Peter
Premier Pashitch said: Before the
war we were willing to accept com
paratively small concessions. hut once
a succeSsful war has been waged, We
are entitled TO the results" He ais
stated that the idea of the quad
ripple alliance grew up in the hearts
OF the four people, and the statesmen
had only to formulate It,

be fought on the plains OF Thraee' On the out
come OF this battle between the victorious
allies and the flower OF the Turkish army will
depend probably the outcome OF the war. The
plan up to that time If that be the plan OF the
allies should be eminently successful, the
greater part of IL having already been accom-.
plished but the outcome of the battle that is
tc be near the shores of the Sea OF Marmora
is more doubtful. The Turk Is a great fighter.
In the world there has been none better in the
past and with the armies of the empire mobil-
lied in defense of the mosque of St Sophia, a
night dwarhng in the number of troops en-
gagged and in bloodlness any of the Manchurian
war should be the result.
A Turkish defeat would probably mean the
fall of Constantinople within time, unless Eu-
rope should intervene; Turkish victory might
mean an indefinite prolongation of the war.
