mi ronstantinoplo. Nov. S. Public
Us opinion in Constnntinoplc Is strongly
'1 opposed to the idea if seeking medl-
9 otlnn or peace.
'M Nazim Pasha, the Turkish com-
9 uiander in chief, has reported to the
M government that the armv is deter-
n-!n?-l to fight uutil victorious or ab-
solutclv defeated. He regards the re-
vc-rscs" sustained as unfortrnate. but
M eavs the brae Ottoman army is con-
&m tldout of ultimate success and that the
I n-h-le corps or officers is unanimous
K of continuing the war.
The principal officers in Constanti-
nople have handed the grand vizier a
f signed declaration in the same spirit.

'm promises to support the government
E In prosec ting the war with energy.
Pr These eonsiueratin are having weight

Si 1 presence of any Bulgarians, but Na
g ( zim Pasha reports that a Bulgarian
I rcconnoitcrlng party was repulsed
I about four miles from Rndosto.
I So far as can be learned here there

S. difTlcult for transport and it Is be-
i lieved bv TurkiBh officers that prob-
j) ably a week will elapse before hos-
f ttlltfes are resumed along the Tcnat-
alja lines. This battle is expected to
decide the campaign. The rumor that

been confirmed, but it I known that

Mussulman refugees continue to ar
' live at the outskirts or the capital

CALIFORNIA
DOUBTFUL
Roosevelt Has Meager
Lead Which May Be
Maintained
San Francisco. Nov. S. With 1.15
precincts missing and Roosevelt
leading Wilson on tho face of the
returns by 30, California was still
in the doubtful column today. Indi
cations were that whatever tho find
ing, the winner's margin would be so
small that an official recount of the
entire state probable would bo nec
essary. Of the missing precincts, three
were in Los Angeles county, which
has given the heaviest Roosevelt
ote, and twenty more were in coun
ties giIng Roosovclt pluralities.
Twenty-five were doubtful. Wilson
seemed sure of eighty-seven in the
north.
None of the missing precincts in
populous and no possible ratio of gain
or loss can profitably be applied to
any of them. The doubtful counties
heid the answer.
