THE ADVANCE ON ADRIANOPLE.

The Buiksu inundation of Turkey scatinees to spread. Most significant newr la contained in a telegram from Sofa, reporting the capture of Babanki, an important print on the mata line to Constantinople, 60 miles Bouth-east of Adrianople. This opera tion, which apparently was the result of a masterly turning movement, means that the Bulgarians are now przetically astride of the railway,,, cutting off Adrianopla and Salonika from Con- stantinople.

THE TURKS RESOLVE.

It appears, however, that the Turks at Adrianople have realved to fight

to the tenth. The Commander of the Fortress has publiabed a proclaiuntion to the effect that the nldiers, having: haroially done their duty outside, hed now withdrawn inside the fortifientions, i which they wero prepared to defend us their fathers had done at Plevna.

THE FRONT.

It appears that the Sultan is most

anxioux to go to the front to encourage the troops, but prominent citizens have

IPEK CAPTURED.

The Western Bulgarian Army has, without opposition, captured Ipek, which is described as “The Adrianople "of Macoronia."

BULGARIANS ADVANCING.

It is also believed that the Bulgariane are threatening the rear of the Turkish Eastern Army, which is thought to be concentrated somewhere between Adrianopla and Babneski.

POWERS WATCHING EVENTS.

3. Poincare, the French Premier, speaking at Nantes, said that, thanks to France's initiative, the Powers are collectively watching events in the Balken. This wou'd facilitate inter- vention when the time arrived, which was perhaps soon. He carefully avoid.
