London, Feb. 1j.-According TO dis
patch to The Daily Chronicle from
Constantnople yesterday sent via Con-
stanza by wireless to escape the CEN
sorship. a success has been won by the
Bulgarians. which may have an i'm
mediate and far reaching effect on the
war. IT is reported that Bulair. one OF
the principal lines Of fortifications on
the Gallipoli Peninsula, fell into the
hands of the allies on Tuesday.
The capture is stated to have taken
place under the following circum-
stances:
The Turkish fleet. operating from the
Dardaneles. was assisting to repel the
Bulgarian attack. The Bulgarians
adopted the ruse of making sudden
retreat. They were followed by the
Turks. but the Turkish warships. not
realizing the position. continued the
bombardment of the fort, with the re-
suit that they inflicted heavy losses on
their own men. The Greek feet, which
was In the Gulf Of Saros, supported the
Bulgarians. who drove home the attack
with the result that the Bulair forts
wers takeu.
The Constantinople correspondent OF
The Daily News" describes the de-
moralization of the Turks at Bulair
where. he says. the first lighting proved
the Wanted Asiatic troops to be worth
less.
The correspondent adds that the
Gallipoli armies are going TO pieces en-
actly- like Abdulah Pacha's host al

Secretary of State Bryan
Proposes Agreements Be-
tween All the Nations.
NO COMMENT HEARD
1t Provides to Delay Wars
Until Controversy Has
Been Investigated.
(National News Association

WASHINGTON, April 24.-To an
audience composed of diplomatic rep
resentatives of the nations of the
earth, Secretary of State Bryan with
the approval of President Wilson to-
day submitted his proposal for inter
national agreements to delay war.
The proposal embodies the principal
points of an agreement which the
president of the United States is will
ling to enter into, with the consent
of the senate, with all other nations.
1t does not attempt to go into details
but is only intended to set forth the
main propositions, namely. that the
president desires to enter into an
agreement with each nation, several
ly, for the investigation of all ques-
tions whatsoever.
An international commission is pro-
posed and the parties to the agree
ment are not to declare war or begin
hostilities until the report Of such a
commission has been submitted. The
agreement is intended to suppliment
any arbitration treaty now in exist
ence or any made hereafter.
Inc pfOpOSdl SLdtco tudI al
bitration treaties always except some
question from arbitration and the pro-
posal of the president is intended to
close the gap and leave no dispute that
can become a cause of war.
The form in which the report by the
commission is to be made is left to
be agreed upon later and it may be
that the time will differ in different
cases, but any time. however short
the proposal states, would furnish an
opportunity to investigate and deliber.
ate in the hope that such an investi
cation could be sufficient to secure a
settlement without resort to war.
Each party to the agreement is ia
retain the right to act independently
after the report is submitted.
Mr.. Bryan's diplomatic audience
was greatly interested in his proposal
but made no comment on it. They will
submit the proposal to their various
governments.

Meet Tonight to Ratify
Action.

A meeting of the executive board
of the city Progressive committee
was held last night and rules for the
primary election were adopted. All
the members of the board are in favor

the qualifications of the voter is as
follows: All Progressives are entitled
to participate in the primary election
and in such event that there shall be
any question as to the qualifications
of the voter, his declaration in writing
may be required before the election
board, that he is Progressive, shall
entitle him to vote"
The executive committee is in
favor of inviting first voters to par,
ticipate in the primary election. A
meeting of the entire city committee
will be held tonight and the primary
election rules will be ratified.
