TURKEY RECAPTURES ADRIANOPLE CITY;
CRESCENT ARMY RE-ENTERS THE FIGHT
, •; *'
Forced March From Constantippple-rCatch Bulgars Napping—
Greek Women’s Ears and Fingers, With Jewelry,
Found in Bulgarian Prisoners’ Pockets—
\ _ V • '
Greeks Bum Prisoners at Stake.
London, July 14-The Turks advanced from Tchatalja and by forced marches they have succeeded
in recapturing Adrinople apd all the surrounding country where the Bufgarians were formerly in
trenched, but which positions they had abandoned to place troops in the field to hold the Servians,
Greeks and Roumanians from invading the country.
The Roumanians who at first demanded 23,000 square miles of Bulgarian territory now demand much
more and will try to hold a section of Bulgaria bordering on the Black sea, including the town of Verna.
Constantinople, July 14-The recapture of Andrinople, the Turkish Holy City, has caused much re
joicing here and the populace are wild with joy. Millions of dollars have been subscribed to a war
fund by the people, the women taking all their jewelry and sending it to the treasury for the use of the
army. Thousands of troops are crossing from Asia to join the army at the front, and the Turks will
have the largest and best equipped force since the commencement of the war with Italy, over a year
ago. Twenty million dollars worth of arms and amunition have been purchased from German manu
facturers since the recent treaty of peace and more war supplies are now stored at Constantinople than
for many years. _ 1
London, July 14-The Greek soldiers are killing all Bulgarian soldiers captured and are burning
the homes of the Bulgars wherever possible in order to avenge the recent henious crimes committed on
greeks by the soldiers of King Ferdinand.
Bulgarian prisoners captured by the Greeks were searched and the ears and fingers of Greek women
were found in their pockets! The ears had been cut off to secure the ear rings, and the fingers were
found with rings still on them. The Greeks burned to death the soldiers found with ears and fingers
in their pockets. _
Berlin, July 14-The situation in the Balkins gives rise to much apprehension as it now appears that
I the powers will be drawn into the trouble. The Austrians are massing troops near the Russian frontier
and the Bear is ready with a million soldiers tor instant action.
BAD BOYS CAUSE THE LOSS OF MANY LIVES
Los Angeles, July 4--Twelve
people are dead and two hun
dred injured because some boys
jokingly pulled a cord at a trol
ley stop near Venice and the car
which had stopped, waiting for
the other to pass, was notified
that the track was clear and to
come ahead at full speed result
ing in a collision, telescoping
two cars, cutting many people
in both cars in pieces, wonnding
many who will not recover and
crippling others for life.
PULL STRING AT CURVE WHICH NOTIFIES CAR TO COME AHEAD
AT FULL SPEED AND TWO ELECTRIC TRAINS ARE TELES
COPED—12 ARE DEAD AND 200 ARE BADLY HURT.
The cars stop at a curve near(
Venice and in order to signal to
oneanother a cord has been ar
ranged by which each conductor
.can tell the other to wait or to
come ahead and the boys pull
ing the line notified the waiting
car to come ahead at full speed
while the conductor had previ
ously notified the other car to
remain until his car arrived.
The result was that both trains
were coming at full speed and
were unable^to see oneanother
because of the curve, and when
they hit two cars were telescoped
and twelve people being killed
outright, their bodies terribly
cut, and two hundred are in
jured.
As soon as possible a special
was made up and medical help |
sent to the scene to relieve the
wounded. The uninjured pas
sengers had assisted many from
the wreck and were, as far as
possible, dressing the wounds
of the injured. The wrecking
car was needed to free some of
those imprisoned. Fortunately
the wreckage did not take fire.
A thorough investigation will
be made by the state railway
commission and by the coroner.
Judge Jennings held a session
