CAPTURE OF KUPRULU BY THE SERVIANS.
MAIN DEFENCE OF BULGARIA IN ALLIES' HANDS. BULGARIAN ARMY COMPLETELY BROKEN IN TWO. Reuter. (Received 11.55 cm.) LONDON. Sept. 26. The Servians have captured Kuprulu. The British and Greeks have reached the western slopes of the Belashitza Mountaihs, which constitute the main defence of Bulgaria from the south. The main lateral lines, Monastir-Prilep-Kuprulu, are now entirely in the hands of the Allies, and the Bulgarian army is completely broken in two. These forces doubtless will endeavour to unite at Uskub, but as the allied cavalry is only 15 miles from Uskub it is doubtful if any will be able to slip through.
