Fire Raging in Adrianople.

Sofia, Bulgaria, March 26.-It was
announced from trustworthy priv
ate source this morning that the
Bulgarian cavalry had succeeded in
entering the besieged Turkish fort
ress OF Adrianople.
At an early hour this Morning fires
were raging in various sections of the
beleaguered city. The maddened pop
ulation, whose nerves had been shat
tered by almost incessant lombard
ment for a period of over seven
months, was fleeing about the streets
from one point to another, not know
ing where to find shelter.
The great artillery arsenal in the
city was burning and the barracks,
lying between the hospital and the
northern forts, were also in flames.
The Bulgarfans in strong force
gradually advanced their lines encir-
cling the city, and by short rushes
the infantrymen approached near
enough to prepare for the final dash.
On all sides the combined move
Of the attackers on the ever-resisting
city was continued. The Bulgarian
infantry had reached within 300 yards
of the main forts at o'clock last
evening. They entrenched themselv-
es there while ammunition and pro-
visions were brought up from tie
rear and preparations were made for
the final assault.
The entire line of fortresses de-
Tending the eastern side of the city
was captured by the Bulgarians after
a most spectacular assault at the
point of The bayonet by long lines OF
infantry, which were strengthened by
the second reserve lines. The east
ern forts soon fell into their hands
and Bulgarian batteries were imme-
diately placed in position to concen-
trate their fire on the-old works. The
way was thus cleared for direct as
sault on the city itself.
