Regarded as Decisive.
ALL EUROPE IS AQUIVER
Austria Relieves Fear of General
Clash by Agreeing to Join la
Transmitting Request for
Mediation to Allies.
LONDON, Nov. 11. Judging by an
precedents in the present war. the news
from Constantinople tonight is the her
ald of another Turkish defeat at the
Tchatalja lines, where a battle has been
on for the last two or three days.
The Turkish admission that so many
wounded are arriving at the capital as
to show that the Turks are offering
fierce reslstence, has great signifi
cance, in view of previous admissions
of a similar nature and may be re
garded as preparing the public for an
other disappointment. It may be quite
possible that this will prove the last
great battle of the campaign.
Balsaria Slay For(v Triumph. -'
There are indications that Bulgaria
may forego a triumphal entry into Con
stantinople. According to some reports
Bulgaria will be content with finding
suitable Winter quarters for her army.
while peace negotiations are going on.
The question of mediation has made
another step forward in the announce
ment from Paris tonight that the Aus
trian government has agreed to join
with the other powers In transmitting
Turkey's request for mediation to the
allies and in Inquiring on what terms
the allies are disposed to accept medi
ation.
The revelation of the danger to
European peace lying in the antagon
Istic interests bf Austria and Servla
appears to have quickened the sense of
the powers, and probably of the Balkan
states also, to the Imperative need of
working in amicable co-operation to
procure a settlement of the Balkan
problems acceptable to alL
Winter May Halt War.
Another factor making for the speedy
cessation of the war is the approach of
severe Winter weather, which would
give to the campaign an exceedingly
arduous character.
There is still talk in Vienna of send
ing an ultimatum to Servla and other
warlike reports, but it is believed Ger
many is exercising an ameliorating in
fluence in the direction of persuading
both Austria and Servla to consent to
a postponement of the settlement until
the whole matter can be dealt With by
the European conference.
Diplomacy is active in' all the Euro
pean capitals. It Is understood that
after his Important mission at Buda
I'est is concluded. Dr. Daneff. president
of the Bulgarian Chamber of Deputies,
will go to the other European courts
to explain the views of the allies.
Servian Premier Leaves Belgrade.
The Servian premier, M. Pa'chitch,
after an Important cabinet meeting,
left Belgrade tonight for Uskup to con
sult with King Peter.
The reported mobilization of Austro
Hungarlan forces is denied at Buda
Pest. Roumania is taking certain mili
tary measures with a view to being
prepared for eventualities. The war
minister has issued an order to all the
army commanders that half the con
tingent, which was to have been dis
missed November 14, be retained with
the tolors.
No lata news of importance has been
received from Adrianople. Scutari,- or
other points where the armies of the
allies have the Turkish troops in close
quarters.
The Port of Rodoslov. on the Sea ot
Marmora, which the Turkish fleet bom
bi ,)ed on Sunday, was reported today
fro "Vienna to have been recaptured
by the Turks.- This, however, lacks
confirmation.
Turka Not to Proclaim Holy War.
The Turkish authorities, owing to the
protest of the foreign Ambassadors,
now disclaim any intention of proclaim
ing a holy war. They give explanation
that the sending of a hundred Moham
medan priests to preach to the troops
does not really mean a holy war. They
say their Intention was to inspire thP
Turkish troops with religious fervor.
A dispatch from Constantinople pays
that In the opinion of European doctors,
the disease which has broken out
among the wounded Is certainly Ast
atic cholera.
Several battalions of Servian troops
have been re-patriated", apparently on
account of. cholera. The dispatch adds
that there are 60.000 troops in the
neighborhood of Constantinople who
have not been engaged In the fighting
vet. and as they are better fed. they
are likely to give a good account of
themselves at the Tchatalja lines.
Danger of Maaaacre Leas.
The danger of massacre and looting
In Constantinople appears to have
abated. None of the correspondents of
London papers mention it. It is possi
ble that the epidemic of cholera Is now
causing greater fears, although if the
army Is driven into the capital no one
can foresee what the disorganized sol
diery may attempt.

When the custom house appraisers
opened the trunks of Gaby Deslys this

that the jewels of the French dancer

In Judge McGinn's court took place
yesterday the trial of the case of Eliz
abeth Sullivan, wife of R. A. Sullivan,
Deputy City Attorney, against the Mult
nomah Hotel Company, an action in
which, the plaintiff is demanding $10,-
000 from the hotel company lor the
ejection of her husband and herself
from the hotel late on the night of
June 15, 1912. The Jury retired late
last night with instructions to return
a sealed verdict. Mr.' Sullivan has a
suit for a similar amount against the
hotel company still to come to trial
Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan contend that
they were not informed that it would
be necessary for both to register and
that they were forced from their room
late at night by W. A. Shoemaker, the
hotel detective. The defense of the
hotel company is that, as in all first-
class hostelrles,- there Is a rule at the
Multnomah providing that a man must
register for his wife and must have
no woman In his room unless she is
his wife and so registered. The room
occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan was
i'l for one and $3 for two, Manager
Bowers testified.
Mrs. Sullivan and her husband testl
fled that the house detective was rude
In his manner and rough in his lan
guage and that their protests to the
clerk and Louts Gevurts, brother of
Phil Gevurtr, president of the Multno
mail Hotel Company, brought them no
consolation. Louis Gevurtss swore that
he treated them courteously, "but said
he did not inform Mr. Sullivan that by
registering for his wife they could re

night.
