Turks' Guns Keep Off Bulgars.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 20, 1912:
Fresh Troops Are Daily Joining Nazim Pasha's Army.
By Marconi Transatlantic Wireless Telegraph to The New York Times.
    LONDON, Wednesday, Nov. 20.— The Times correspondent telegraphs from the Tchatalja lines under date of Monday:
    "Last night a strong northeast wind brought on a Scotch mist, which greatly impeded the operations of the Bulgarian artillery against the Hamidiyeh forts.
    "In comparison with that of yesterday, to-day's cannonade on both sides was desultory. The Bulgarian batteries in front of Papas Burgas had been severely punished. The effect of the Turkish naval guns had apparently induced the Bulgarians to withdraw these batteries, as they did not fire a shot all day.
    "At midnight a Turkish battalion advanced and occupied the village of Papas Burgas on the heels of the Bulgarians, who evacuated it precipitately before them. This rather gives the impression that the Bulgarians found the extreme Turkish left to be impracticable.
    "Up to the dusk of the evening the Turkish gunners were easily able to keep the Bulgarians at a distance, as their heavy guns have a longer range than that of the opposing batteries.
    "The Turks had no need to call up the reserves, who blacken the crests of the hills and the slopes behind the lines, while they watch the long-distance artillery duel with the greatest interest.
    "Fresh troops in good condition arrive daily. At least one division came in this evening."
