iii ? gm, FIGHTING 1 ON TIN l KS AND PEACE NOT IN SIGHT. ?Vvrvrn Hellet txl to be Working Bc hltul Kerne* With Ncttloment In Um London. Nov. 22.--The efforts to? ward peace In the Turkish-lialkan *<i' made no visible progress today, exchanges of artillery fire and Infan? try reconnuisances proceeded along the Tchatalja lines. Noslm Pasha, the Turkish com man der in chief, in a dis? patch to Constantinople claims that an lufantry battle occurred In front of th*- centre of his posltiona and that the Bulgarians left several thousand dead before the Turkish outworks. Not much credence Is placed In this raport, however. Elsewhere In the war aone the military situation re? mains unchanged. The Servian forces ?advancing toward the Adriatic, are buried deep in snow. The Bulgariaaa have occupied the important town of Deoeaghatch, the terminus of the Kaloatkt railway on Use Aesreaa sea, The Turkish cruiser Hamldleh came sate port at Constantinople damaged from a Bulgarian torpedo. The Turk? ish claim that the Hamldleh sank two of the Bulgarian torpedo boats with which she was engaged yesterday has not yet bean confirmed. U Is believed that the peace nego? tiations have been only temporarily suspended The beat opinion in Lon? don la that a compromise w.ll be ef? fected between the belligerents and ?hat the powers are using their good eflkei behind the scenea with this end ^ Im view. Reporte from Sofia say that Tur? key's rejection of the proffered terms for an armistice occasioned no sur? prise there. Three Bulgartana repre? senting ihe three northern kingdoms, have started for the front with the W eipectatl >n of meeting th* Turkish peace plenipotentiaries. The Oreek military attache with the Bulgarian army will Join the Bulgarian plenipo ?teotlariHS. A cessation of hostilities Is not necessarily expected to follow the departure of the representative m of the alllee on the mission of peace. Whatever basis for an armistice ?may be reached, it Is expected that st will leave In abeyance for the ne? gotiations of a peace treaty the imr...n? of t?*?M*??-y fo-V.-- xr(M *.v?.n.

Channels Are Running Full, With Op? timism Predominant, ami This De? spite Mild Weather. New York. Nov. 22.?Bradstreet's | - nr >rrow will say; "Trade channels are running full with optimism predominant and this despite widespread evidences that mild weather is a bar to fullest tivities in final distribution. It Is to be noted, however, that mild cli? matic conditions are and have been in a high degree favorable to ag? ricultural and transportation Inter? ests. The strength of prices and of de? mand In the textile trades Is a sub? ject of interest. Dry goods are In ac? tive demand from mill to retailer, though mild weather hampers retail demand for heavy weight goods. Cotton goods are stronger and print cloths and brown cottons have ad? vanced in price with eommlslon men. In the yarn trades both cotton *and woolen lines are strong and active. Raw wool of the old clip is in scant supply, in nom.nal demand and firm in pries, "Rest prices as to the Jobber and retail trade coins, as heretofore, from thS West. Northwest and Southwest, and where house trade had fallen off, gl in the case of some markets, road orders have more than made good the deficit. "Southern trude tends to lag some? what behind the other sections. Real slowness is manifested only at a few Southwestern points. "Operations in iron and steel lines continues as active if not more active than heretofore." Mrs. Frank O'Donnell Is in Char? leston Visiting her parents. ? Sffggg ?????H .
