[By Cadle to The Chicago Tribune.] Lonvon Orrice or Tae Cuicaco Tawune, 6 Patonave Prace, Smmanp, Aug. 19—5 a. m.—Suleiman Pasha, it is reported to-night, has advanced within two hours’, mgrch of Tirnova. Although the line of communica- tions with the Russian force at Shipka Paks is thus threatened, it is authoritatively ‘an- nounced that the Pass will still be held.” Gen. Gourka himself has gone to St. Peters- burg to take command of the Imperial Guard. THE MOST IMPORTANT ITEM of news to-day is that heavy reinforcements have been disffitched via Phillioppopolis to Osman Pasha’s army, which, thus strength- ened and assisted by the diversion made by Mehemet Ali and Suleiman, will now be ina better position to cope with the immense forces which the Russians sre bringing against it, 5 CONFLICTING REPORTS continue regarding the attitude of Servia. In Vienna it is thought certain there will be a new Servian war, but, on the other hand, Ristics,; the new Prime Minister, has 1n- formed foreign representatives at Belgrade that no change of policy of neutrality is in- tended. . ‘The Russian military authorities are be- ginning to publish ample details of affairs in Armenia, a sign that they think they are im- proving. * DNVESTIGATING DELINQUENCIES. Court-martial assembled at Constantinople, of which Manyk Pasha is President, will proceed at once to try Radif Pasha, ex-Min- ister of War; Abdul Kerim, ex-Commander- in-Chief; Brigadier Generals Ahmet and Safvet Pasha, the latter commanding at Tir- nova; General Escharef Pasha, of Rustchuk, and Hamdi Bey, Governor of Sistova, all charged with having made bad dispositions and with negligence WHEN ‘THE RUSSIANS. CROSSED THE DANUBE. Radif 1s ‘now confined. on the Island of Prinkipo, Sea of Marmora, under guard of 150 Seaptiess.

RUSSIAN ARMY FRAUDS. The Commission to inquire into the frauds in supplying forage for the Russian army re- port a deficit of £19,000. ‘PRECAUTIONARY. Many Russian and Roumanian officers, knowing that, if taken prisoners, they would be shown no mercy by the Turks, are carry- ing poison about their porsons to rid them- selves of life and save torture, in case they fall into the hands of the enemy. IN BULGARIA. RUSTCHUE. Rusrcnuk, Aug. 18.—The Rassian bombard- ment continues. Two hundred shells. have fallen in town, and twenty persons have been ‘killed. BATTERIES SILENCED. St. Petersburg official dispatches state that Russian batteries at Giurgevo silenced the ‘Turkish batteries at Rustchuk on the 15th inst. There was slight successful fighting on the 16th on the right bank of tie river near Rustchuk. REPULSED. A Russian reconnoitering party has been re- pulsed near the River Lom. RUSSIAN IDLENESS. ‘Loxnon, Aug. 18.—Advices from Bucharest and Sistova show that the Russians have made no preparation against bad weather. Even the flat, sandy island over which is an, approach more than a mile long to the pontoon bridges shows no sign of road-making, although 100 infavtrv soldiers have idled away the time there for several months. It is now a mass of mud, as the wagons have kneaded its surface seeking passable places. On the Sistova side, where the ronds to Biela and Tirnova ran up steep bill- sides, there was - ALSO NO PREPARATION. Short but severe showers on Wednesday night caught ths Russian army Service Department utterly unprepared. After the roads bad been Tribune. ® PRICE FIVE CENTS. ‘made virtually impassable in many places, fa- tine parties were turned out on the Sistova hills to cut a new road and make ill-directed efforts to fill the chasms in the old ones with willow brushwood. A partof the Dobrudscha force bas already passed through Roumania and again crosséd the Danube about ten miles above Rastchuk, but Operations on the other side are delayed by rain, which has rendered all roads practically impassable for artillery and trains. A great part of the line of communication with the army is over mere cart-tracks beaten with dust n fine weather and churned into deep mud when it rains. ‘WOOD IS SCARCE: inthe country now occupied by the Russians, and the enormous forces about to be encamped in the heart of Bulgaria will probably leave it as bere the allies left the plains pefore Sabas- topol. During the occupation of the Dobrudscha lately the sick were sent back at the rate of 300 per day, and there are signs of increasing sick- ness within the lines on the other side of the Danube. ‘Shipka Pass, which was held by the Rus- asians, was biockadedat the southern entrance, and will probably HAVE TO BE EVACUATED, unless the Russians attack and defeat one of three Turkish corps which now form a semi- circle from Rasgrad to Plevna. Soine critics appear to think that the Russian advantage lies in continuedinaction and further’ concentration, but the increasing ravages of discase. in the Russian camp is an offset against the arrival of reinforcements, and may compel their Generals to attack Plevna or Rasgrad before stratezical considerations would authorize such an undertaking. It,1s reported also that public opinion ia Russia is powerfully affected by the failure before Plevna, Echoes of this dissatisfaction may reach the army in the field, and tend to tempt military advisers of the Emperor to urge some enterprise that might well be deferred till stronger forces can be con- centrated. GOUREA'S OPINION. Vienna, Aug. 18—The Politicat Corres- pondence has a Bucharest telegram saying: “Gen. Gourka declares that. the Russian posi- tions from the Danube to Shipka Pass are so strong that the Turks will not venture an at- tack." Both armies are constantly intrenching them- selycs. The Turks especially hold 2 wonderful- ly strong position at Plevna, but Osman Pasha is nevertheless ina difficult situation, because the nnmerons cavalry attached to the 80,000 Rus- sians confronting hin completely CUT OFF IIS COMMUNICATIONS with Sofia, and capture his convoys of ammuni- tion and provisions. The Russians will not un- dertake ‘operations untilthe whole Guard ar- rives from St. Petersburg. This signifies a pause of a fortnight or three weeks. TNE DOBRUDSCHA. Bucwanssr, Aug. 18.—Eight vessels landed Turks in the Dobrudscha Friday. The Russians are marching to oppose them. WAR NOTES, , TURKISH LOAN. CoystantinopLs, Aug. 18.—The Ottoman Bank has succeeded in placing @ loan which will net the Porte $12,000,000. ; < REMOVED. Bucuarest, Aug. 18.—Prince Tcherkasski has removed the seat of Government of Bulga-. ria from Tirnova to Bistova. - SERYIA. yet ‘Viewna, Aug. 18.—Tho Political ence says it has received information from a yery trustworthy source that the question of Servia’s taking part in tho war has been dis- cussed in the Servian Cabinet. Ministers Milio- kovitch and Grovitch did not approve of such an undertaking, but Grovitch appears to have since yielded tothe influence of Minister Ris- tics. EUROPEAN MARKETS. THE ECONOMIST'S WERELY REVIEW. Special Dispateh to The Tribune. Lonpoy, Aug. 18—The Zconomist says: “Gold having continued to flow from the bank, and a rise in the rate having been expected, the market rates of discount have further risen. Unt Thursday they were close upon 2 per cent, and ‘even then subject to enbancément should the bank-rate ibe raised: but as no rise was made, quotations are easier.at 1 13-16 per cent for three months’ bills. Ifthe present drain on the supply of bullion and reserve of the Bank continues, there is little doubt what the course of the Bank will be. The price of wheat must also be considered. The market value of money has a tendency‘ to follow the market value of grain, and although the influence of the higher price of wheat on the money market this year, com- pared with last, may not immediately show it- self, but in the course of time it will BE ‘SURE TO TELL. Holiday time having set in, the movements in the . stock markets have been few and feeble. Exceptions, however, are to be found in the markets for English, Indian, and American railway securities where some marked advances have taken place. The tendency of prices bas sp- peared to be downward on the whole since last Saturday, when a general rise ensued on the Ministerial statements concerning British neu- trality. Since then the continued withdrawals of gold from the bank, leading to the expecta- tion that arise to 2per ceiit in the rate might be made, have caused prices to give way, and the Queen’s speech on Tuesday had also A SOMEWHAT DEPRESSING EFFECT, but on Thursday there was a recovery in specu- lative markets, which was strengthened by the retention of the bank rate at 2 per cent. On the German bourse some strength has re- sulted trom the report of large harvests in Hungary. Investments continue to be made in American governments. The railways are benefited by the promise of « large grain trafic. MINCING LANE. ‘There are few changes of importance in the Mincing Lane markets. The quotations of rice still tend upward, the Indian famine having stimulated the demand. There has been a bet- ter tone in the tea market during the last few days, ana the low rates current for new season’s Congou attract ‘more attention. Black-leaf sorts are in steady demand at public sales, indian teas bave found ready buyers, andoftenat firmer prices than lately. Sugar has fallen quite 2s. a ton op an aver- age, and remains dull. A very moderate sup- ply of plantation Ceylon coffee by auction sold at 1@2s. per cwt. advance, other kinds (ex- cepting Mocha, which is lower) being steady. The Netherlands Trading Company advertise 101,100 bags for sale Aug. 22. Spice is unsettled. Saltpetre is again lower. ‘THE WAR ON. THE MINISTRY. Paris, Aug. 18.—T# Figaro, which lately at- tacked the Duke de Brogife, President of the Council and Minister of Justice, as being an ob- stacle to the proclamation of a state of siege, has now made a similar complaint against Gen. Berthaut, Minister of War. ‘tne semt-olficial Afonifeur, which defends Gen. Berthaut, charges Gen. Ducrot, who com- mands at Bourges, with being the instigator of these attacks. The ioniteur thinks it quite al- Jowable that Gen.
