VERY LIKE A THREAT.

FEARS OF CHOLERA.

[PRESS' ASSOCIATION.]

« CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 12. The Porte has re-addressed the Powers, inquiring what progress has been made towards cessation of hostilities. \

Kiamil has warned the Ambassadors that if the Bulgarians enter. Constantinople the ximbassadors, with the young and old people, would all die. The Ambassadors have recommended each Power to send a third warship.

The wounded are arriving in such numbers that the Porte is transferring them to Broussa. It is feared that the water supply will become infected and carry cholera to Pera.

The Arabs have offered many thousands of troops to help the Caliphate. When the Turkish warship Masudia shelled the vicinity of Rodosto the Greeks and Armenians became panicstricken, and, fearing massacre, took refuge in the Consulate. A feeble and dispirited Turkish garrison occupied the trenches around Rodosto, but the fight lasted all the afternoon. The Bulgarians are steadily approaching the town.
