London.-After ten days fighting,

The Servians have lost more men

defeated the Servians and captured
five guns and q quantity Of other war
material, and by the occupation of

to Nish, Servia's most important for.

There is heavy fighting between the
Servians and Bulgarians south of Is.

chana. About 100000 men are en-.
gagged and the losses on both sides
appear heavy.
Bulgaria's strategy appears to be
to hold the Greeks in check, probably
with comparatively small forces,
while she deals with Servia.
Unconhrmed reports credit the Bull,
garians with victories near Koprili,
giving them the key to Uskup, and
with an Outfanking movement from
the south of Tahynos lake which
would cut off the Greek strait. Salon.
Xxi dispatches report that the Greeks
have captured 16 guns at Dolran Evi,
dence of desperate fighting is found
IN the arrival of 5000 wounded at
Saloniki.
A conservative estimate Of the killed
or disabled in last weeks fighting is
from 10000 to 10000. Thousands of
destitute refugees from the scene of
the fighting are pouring into Saloniki.
The Greeks have made charges
against the Bulgarians of burning and
pillaging all the villages they aban.
don, and of committing murders, mu,
tilations and other horrors.

CAVALRY CAPTURED A FLEET
"Horse-Marines" Figured In Incident
Of War for the independence Of

The Llanero of South America lives
on horseback; trades buys and sells
on horseback; and during the war
with Spain, the Llaneros con-
tributed much toward achieving the
independence of both Venezuela and
New Granada. In up the Orinoco
and Down the Magdalena," Mr.. II. J.
Mozans tells of an occasion when 1t
was necessary for Bolivars army to
cross the Apure, in order to engage
Morillo But Bolivar had no boats,
and the Apure at this point was wide
and deep.
The Spanish flotilla was guarding
the river at the point opposite to the
patriot forces. Bolivar was in despair

his horse, he dashed into the river
and swan toward the fotilla. The
Llaneros followed him with their
lances in their hands, now encourag-
ing their horses by swimming beside
them and patting their backs, now
shouting to scare away the crocodiles,
of which there were hundreds in the
river. At last they reached the other
side, and sprang from their horses

their leader To the astonishment of

FERRIS suEp FOR $500
Ono More Chapter for the Notorious
Red Book

Oklahoma City.-Former State
Printer Giles w Farrls and his bonds
men, the Western Insurance company,
were made defendants in a suit filed
in the superior court in behalf OF the
state, by Attorney General Charles
West, to collect $4,000 of which Far.
ris is alleged to have defrauded the
state in connection with the publica-
ton of the Red Book"
Farris is alleged to have drawn
false claim against the state printing
fund for $4,000 in favor of the Demo
crat Publishing company of Tulsa for
work done on the Red Book, which
the petition asserts was published
wholly without authority OF law. The
petition alleges that Farris had three
warrants drawn on the claim, one for
$500 and two for $1,000 each. He is
alleged to have forged the indorse-
ment Of the Democrat Publishing
company to the warrants and sold
them. The petition asks that interest

be paid to the state by Farris and his
,bondsmen.

prevented Bulgaria from executing

the Macedonian territory which she
wished to occupy pending arbitration.
The statement says the Servians sue

vance. The Servian army gradually
assumed the offensive and the Ser

back over the river Bregalinitza. An
other semi-official communication says
last weeks battles lost the Servians
$4,000 killed and wounded; the Bull
garians 10000.
According to the latest advices, the
