Vienna, Feb. S.-Adrianople will be

the time has come when human life
will no longer be considered and he
will throw his whole force against the
holy city in one grand assault.
While no positive information is

ope by the bombardment it is believ-
ed Shukri Pasha's wireless reports to
Constantinoule greatly minimized the
execution done by the Bulgar shells.
