It has suffered a terrible, appalling defeat. This ha? been followed by confusion and a rout for which I hero is scarcely a parallel in history.

Melted Away Like Snow. "Tho men scorned to melt away sud denly like snow before a summer sun. The disintegration, once begun, soon became general. Brigades dissolved into regiments, regiments into compan ies, compani.es became small groups un til cohesion disappeared and the de moralization became complete. A hand ful of tho army has found its way back to Tchorlu. the Bulgarian artillery cruelly harassing them and mowing them down by thousands. For a like disaster one is compelled to turn to Napoleon's memorable retreat from Moscow. "I am one of two English journalists who were caught in the wild stampede of the retreating Turks.

B3' afternoon the Bulgarians had shelled the Turks out of Lule Burgas. Fortunately the inhabitants hwi previ ously lied and the loss of life among noncombatants was insignificant, "Tho greater part, of tho Turkish garrison had already withdrawn, those remaining as a rear guard woro caught like rats iu a trap. Tho 111011 of the Fourth corps, although they had been without food for two days, offcrod a stubborn but unavailing resistance and died to n man. "The. victorious Bulgarians next ad vanced eastward toward a railroad station, which is four miles distant from litile Bursas. Here they mot unexpected resistance which delayed their advance for two hours. A por tion of the Turkish cavalry division was concentrated here under Salih Pasha and Feud T'asha, the latter hav ing formerly served iu the German army. The Bulgarians after hoibfiug tho national Hag in the principal mosque, pressed forward Wild Charge of Turlcs.
