i<&. AH.-.s

Athens, Jan. 2l.-After 4 two days
bombGrdment, an Anglo-French
squadron silenced the forts at the
Bulgarian town Of Porto Lagos and
landed troops on Bulgarian soil. The
allied land forces destroyed Bulgar-
ian gun emplacements and after
brief reconnaissance withdrew.
The landing was made on WedneS-
day with only slight casualties. An
glo-French troops moved nortllward
toward the Bulgarian railway few
miles north Of the bay of Porto Lag
os, but encountering Il superior Bull
garian force withdrew to their ships.
An official statement from the Bull
garian war office, telegraphed here
today. reported the bombardment Of
Porto Lagos and Deadeaghatch by
an Anglo-French squadron of twenty
four warships on Tuesday, but made
no mention of the landing Of troops
on the following day. On the same
day the Turkish war office reported
another Anglo French squadron she'll
ed Turkish positions on the Gulf Of

The warships taking part in the
raids on Bulgarian and Turkish coasts
presumably were from the Anglo

able the reconnaissance at Porto Lag
os was preliminary to Il troop land
