BUDAPEST, Nov. 2.—A battle comparable with any in the world’s history was drawing to its close before the gates of Constantinople to- day. On both sides—Bulgarian and Turkish—nearly 500,000 men have been engaged. Fighting began ten days ago and has raged almost con- tinuously ever since. The battle front was about thirty miles long at first. Then it stretched to ngarly one hundred. To-day it had narrowed again to about thirty as the sea hemmed the combatants in on either side. Of the losses in killed and wounded only the vaguest estimates could be made. Military men here surmised, however, from the little they have learned definitly that on both sides the figure will approxi- ‘mate 75,000 men. Fifteen thousand wounded Turkish. troops have been taken to Constantinople. Beyond the fact that fighting was atl! in progress within twenty-five or thirty miles of Constantinople to-day, accurate information was lacking of developments later than Thursday night, Ten days ago it would have been taken for granted here that the Turks realizing that their last line of defenses had been reached, that their capital {taelf was besieged and that one more defeat would be their /ast, would fight to the last man. But this was not the opinion of the best judges to-day. The persistency with which they have been beaten has shattered the general faiti im the Ottoman troops’ prowess. News that the Bulgartans had entered Con- stantinople was expected at any time.

LONDON, Nov. 2.—Buigarla’s claims that the Turks have been overwhelm- ingly defeated were amply confirmed to- day. The defeat was a rout.

While the ship was cruising a short distance off the capes which form the entrance to Hampton Roads a part of the boiler burst, filling the engine room with scalding water and steam.

In @ short time young Wharmby met the girl and fell in love with her. She appeared to have some regard for him and they were frequently in each other's company during the summer. Virginia kept knowledge of the affair with young Wharmby from her mother and the boy never made his appearance before any member of the Steiner family. ‘The infatuation of Wharmby for the girl became deeper as their acquaintance progressed and the boy became the butt of the jokes of the young men and women employed in the factory. Vir- ginia Steiner, a popular girl, was capri- cious in her treatment of Warmby, and this fact appeared to inflame his pas- sion.

It was deaperate football through every minute of the play. Princeton's solitary six was the sole result of her new football, The Tigers had counted on rolling ap « big acore by use of the forward pass, After thelr lonely touchdown, Harvard found the combination.
