London.-After ten days of fighting,
more severe and deadly in character
than anything in the last Balkan war,
a little light begins to break upon the
hitherto Obscure operations. In the
first place, the Scrvians have lost
more men than in the whole previous
campaign and semi-oificial statements
issued at Belgrade have the appear
ance of intention to prepare the public
for news of disaster.
Desperate fighting Ia proceeding
along the Vardar and Bregalinitza riv-
ers which seems to be in favor OF the
BuIgarians. Important news has been
received of the Bulgarian invasion OF
Servia, through Belogradchyk. about
Servia's most important fortified town.
forty-five miles northeast of Nish,
No Indication is given of the strength
OF the Bulgarian column at this point.
but the Bulgarians claim to have de-
feated the Servians and captured five
guns and a quantity of other war ma
terial, and. by the occupation OF the
passes, to have opened the road to
btrween the Servians and Bulgarians
to the south Of Istip and in the neigh
borhood of Kotchana. About 100000
men are engaged and the losses on
both sides have been terrible.
Bulgaria's strategy appears to be to
hold the Greeks in check. probably
with comparatively small forces.
while she deals with Servia. This as
sumption would explain the victorious
advance of the Greek army
Reports credit the Bulgarions with
victories near Koprili, giving them the
key to Uskup. and with an outflank-
Ing movement from the south OF Tahy-
nos lake, which would cut off the
Greek retreat.
Saloniki dispatches continue to re-
port Greek victories. The Greeks
have captured sixteen guns at Doiran.
Evidence of desperate fighting Is
found in the arrival of 5000 wounded
at Salonika. taxing the towns accom-
modations and resources to the utter
most.
A conservative estimate OF the
killed or wounded in last weeks fight
Ing fixes the number at from 10000
to 10000. Thousands OF destitute ref
ugees from the scene of fighting are
pouring into Saloniki.
The Greeks make wholesale charges
against the Bulgarians Of burning and
pillaging all the villages they abandon
and of committing murders. mutila-
tions and other horrors. More than

Senator Shafroth to Make Stand In

Washington. : Senator Shafroth's
plan to continue duty on sugar II
the revenue is needed has not found
favor in the sight of President Will
son. The senator had conference
with the President at which he urged
him to accept the provision. both to
save the sugar industry and the DEM
ocratic party in Colorado and other
sugar-producing states.
The President listened attentively.
but respectfully declined the Shafroth
plan his Endorsement. The Democratic
members of the finance committee. as
soon as they heard of the Presidents
decision, decided not to accept the
amendment and turned 1t down.
In spite of these discouragins set
backs, Senator Shafroth has not given
up the fight.

ElIltLlN, March S.--A student duel
with fatal issue is reported from kiel,
where Friedrich Haase, a medical stu.
dent, has just been condemned to
three months Imprisonment for par.
ticipating in duel with deadly weap.
OnS.
His opponent, also a medical stud.
ent, died from blood.poisoning result
ing from the sabre wounds. On the
more serious charge of having caused
the death of his antagonist Haase
was acquitted, the testimony showing
| that the 'blood.poisOning was due to
| the dead mans efforts to keep the
wounds open, and obtain as promin-
ent scars as possible.
The duel was one of the sO.called
! unprovOkcd ones, in which members
| OF the student fratcrnities who have
not been fortunate enough to chal-
lehgc or be challenged in regular af-
fairs OF honor, are drawn by lot to
fight the necessary number of duels
to retain their membership in their
fraternities, the opponents meeting,
of course, without ill.feeling on either
side
The incident strengthens the hands
of the strong party in parliament who
wish to have the penalty removed
from student dueling in the pending
revision Of the criminal code. ~
A device to enable a person on one
side Of the world actually to see what
is going on thousands of miles away
has just been invented by Berlin
engineer, DR.. J. Michel Schmierer.
DR.. Schmierer has long been work
ing, with many other Investigators
on the problem OF transmitting pho
tographs and pictures by telegraph,
but in his results he has unexpected
ly gone a stage further than the other
picture transmitters. At the sending
end Of his wire he uses camera, the
lens Of which can be pointed at any
desired object or scene. The light
rays are thrown on a screen, which
divides the picture up into light points
Of varying brightness. These points
are in turn thrown on sensitive
plate treated with selenium, and are
converted into variations of the cleo
trio current.
AT the receiving end, which may
be half way around the world, this
current becomes light of varying bril-.
liancy, and by a mirror arrangement
the picture is reproduced much like
the newspaper half-tone, in dots Of
varying size and frequency. In the
shadows Of the picture these dots are
crowded closely together to reproduce
