I ONDON, Nov, 18. The 1 first Bulgarian attack on the Turkish line of fortifica tions defending Constantino ple at Tchatalja has failed. The whole of the Bulgarian army was engaged. Every availble man was moved to the front from the Bulgarian forces in vesting Adrianople, where they were relieved by Servian troops. The Bulgarians with all their artillery began their advance on the Tchatalja fortifications on Saturday and continued the bombardment of the works throughout Sunday. They, however, found the Turkish positions so strong that they could make no impression on them and for he moment at least the attempt has been giv en up, the firing, according to a dispatch from Constantino ple having ceased this morning. Observers who have been to the Turkish front agree that the capture of the Tchatalja lines must prove a task oi tre mendous difficulty. The days the Bulgarian troops were compelled to use for the bringing up of guns, ammunition and reinforce, menu, were utilized by the Turks to entrench themselves, giving them a distinct advantage over the attackers. The Turkish soldiers, too, appear to have been steadied. The Bulgarian troops made their attack east of Tchatalja. The strong forts, the marshes and the guns of the Turkish warships evidently hud dis pnuriured them from making an at tempt to turn either nan 01 me Turkish lines. The Turks seem to have no hope of rolling back the Bulgarian forces but If they succeed In holding the linen of Tchatalja both the military and diplomatic situation will undergo a marked change, for a. long defense of the front will probably compel the Bulgarians to enter negotiations with out capturing the Turkish Capital. In Albunla the opposing armies have again come to grips and another battle Is In progress today near Mon astic MI ,, At Rpiilnrl the Montenegrins finally are making somo headway. They have driven Turkish troops from one ui their mountain positions but the Turkish commander has not given up hope of making a long defense.

S SALEM, Mass., Nov. 18. Arturo Giovannitti, socialist writer, poet and missionary, charged, with Joseph J. Ettbr and Joseph Caru9o, with responsibility for the murder of Anna Lopizzo in the Lawrence textile strike, testifying In his own defense today maintained that he never urged violence on the strikers. The much-quoted speech of the de fendant In which the commonwealth maintained he urged the strikers to "prowl like wild animals at night, seeking the blood of the scabs" was recalled In detail by Giovannitti. He said the parade of January 29 was over and the strikers had gath ered at the common. "I have said to them" Glovannitites tified, "Go home, go back to your wives and children. If you leave them alone they will be the first to com plain, and breuk your spirit.' " He told them, he said, he had seen them that morning throw ice at the soldiers and cautioned them against repeating the offense, which could but aid the other side- by bringing on a fight with the soldiers. Alleges Dynamite "Plant." He repeated speeches he made about the discovery of dynamite, al leging that It was a plot of the capi talists to rob the strikers of their lead er and drive them back to work disorganized. The young socialist writer and poet, who Is charged as an accessory before the fart to the killing of Anna Lopiz zo In a Lawrence textile strike riot last winter, faced the jury despite the absence of his personal counsel, W. Scott Peters. Attorney Fred H. Moore took up the defense where it was left last week when Mr. Peters' Illness caused a postponement. Giovannitti, whose home Is In Brooklyn, went to Lawrence to aid Joseph J. Ettor In conducting the "trike In the textile mills and ad dressed the workers on several occa sions. The commonwealth sought to prove that his utterances In Italian Incited the strikers to acts of violence and aided In the precipitation of the fatal riot on January 29, last. Giovanntttl's Early Life. Giovannitti said he was born in Italy 28 years ago, the. son of a chem ist, and was educated there. Coming to America he lived for some time at Halifax and Montreal. While study ing English at Montreal he conducted an Italian Presbyterian mission, after which ho entered a Presbyterian theological school. "Soon after that," said Giovannitti, "I was called to Brooklyn to take charge of another mission. I was not exactly a minister, but sort of a mis sionary. I preached to the people on Sundays and taught them during the week." Later ho entered the Union Theo logical seminary and registered at Columbia university. The work was too much for him, he said, particu larly the study of Hebrew. After this for eight months he conducted an Italian mission at Pittsburgh. There he became connected with the social ist party, but people of the Presby terian church objected. Leaves the Church. "I told them," he said, "that I did not think the teachings of Christ and socialism were antagonistic and I severed by connection With the church." Returning to New York In 1911 he took up Italian newspaper work and met the defendant Ettor. He went to Lawrence January 20, last, after the strike wag called. "Before I went to Lawrence," the witness said, "I had learned that the militia had been called, that there was a feeling that Ettor chould leave there and that railroad stations were being watched for outside agitators."

He j said that riguis conferred by patents were extensive but uil not give a uni versal license against the positive pro hibition of the Sherman law. The de cision iully sustained the government its fight begun over a year ago against the hath tub and enameled ware manufacturers. I'itilit Begun in Maryland. The flht against the enameled ware manufacturers was begun by the gov ernment in the United States district court of Maryland, it being charged that the fifty defendants named had entered Into a combination to restrain interstate trade In sanitary enameled Iron ware and had attempted to mo nopolize that trade. Sixteen of the defendants were corporations; One of the defendants was Edwin L. Wayman with whom the corporate defendants and their officials were charged with having entered into Illegal agreements in-effect, licenses,., for the use qf a. patented enameling tool. Wayman was to refund part of the license fee if the manufacturers had not violated any conditions of the agreements, among those conditions being one that they would not sell to any Jobber who did not sign a contract not to buy from any one other than the corporate defendants; and another that they would not sell at a lower price or on more attractive terms than those named in a schedule of prices attach ed to the agreement Lower Court's Reasoning, The lower court held that the agreements destroyed competition and fixed prices In violation of the Sher man law and furthermore that the patent on the tool did not make the agreements lawful. The lower court prohibited the defendant from at- tempting further to resterain trade by means of these agreements, pronounc ed illegal. ' ' Juauce McKenu, In announcing the decison of the Supreme court, called attention to the effectiveness of the combination made possible among enamel ware manufacturers, through Wayman's plan to grant licenses on his improvement of enamelling. Thd decision marked an epoch in anti-trust decisions because it sus tained the government's contention that a violation of the Sherman anti. trust law could not be concealed be hind the patent laws of the country.
