 SEDIL BAHR, Dec. 1s.--The Greek fleet was forced 10 retire in the sec ond battle and the Turkish ships have returned victorious. The accounts given are necessarily from Turkish sources and may be expected to be favorable to that side but there can be no doubt this time that Greece met defeat. The Turkish commander de- cided, however, not to pursue the enemy as he feared being cut off from the Dardanelles and he decided to come back and await any further movement on the part of the enemy. The second sea battle was probably not very ferceiy contested one as no account has yet arrived of the loss of any of the ships engaged.
