TURKS MASS ARMY
TO AID GERMANY
Balkan States Are Pledged 10
Oppose Move

A telegram received in Rome from
Berlin announces the mobilization OF
the Turkish army.
Following the advice of Field Mar
shal Baron Won der Goltz, It is stated
that the Turkish government will form
an army of the first line composed OF
100000 men, all Mohammedans.
Seyenty-two superior German Off
GERS, forming the German military
mission at Constantinople. have been
incorporated in the Turkish army
and will participate in the war.
The presence OF the German officers
in the army is interpreted to mean
that Turkey will fight on the side Of
Germany.
If Turkey decides to aid the Ger
man-Austrian cause by an onslaught
upon the Balkan states, Greece, Rou-
mania, Servia. Montenegro and Bull
garia are pledged to join in a fight
against Turkey
News from COnstantinople that the
German diplomatic representatives are
attempting to induce Turkey to Join
in the war may have the unexpected
result Of uniting all the Balkan states
in a common cause against her old en-
emy. Bulgaria, on the verge OF war
with Greece several times, is pledged
to join with her old allies in defend
ing the Balkans from Turkish attack.
This was announced officially.

Allies Position Good.

The position of the allied armies,
/ according to the opinion of French
military experts, is good The Ger
mans, it is pointed out, are attempting
a movement which, if it fails, will
leave them in a dangerous situation,
with their troops exhausted. The Brit
ish army, fresh and rested is about to
engage the extreme German right and
to support the French, who have been
retiring slowly for several days.
Several persons who have arrived
in Paris from northern towns declared
that they were much impressed by
what they saw on the way. No Germans
were observed, but the preparations
of the allies for a defensive fight filed
them with confidence.
Nevertheless, the advance Of Ger
man scouts to Beauvais, which is only
thirty-eight miles. in an air line, north
Of Paris, and fiftyfour miles by rail,
is causing disquiet.
The strides made by the German
right wing in the battle that has been
raging for twenty-four hours is only
nication issued, which says.
"On our left the Germans have
gained some ground. In the center
the fortunes of battle have not been
decided. There has been no change
in the situation there. In Lorraine we
have gained new advantages"
"Our line is holding out like a bull
dog in the center" said Minister OF
War Millerand, as he left his Office af-
ter conference with General Gal
lieni. military governor Of Paris.
French Rush Fresh Troops to Front.
Fresh troops reached the French
front. Most OF these were sent to the
center.
A member of the chamber of depu-
ties for one of the northern depart |
ments of France. who came to Paris,
says there are no Germans at Lille, |
Roubaix or Tourcoing. These towns |
are in the department of Du Nord, and 4
all within twenty miles Of the Belgian |
frontier. Dispatches last week said .
that they had been occupied by Ger
man troops.
Official announcement IS made that /
the minister of war has decided to
call out Immediately all the reservists
in the country who have not been
previously called to the colors.
The allied movement is described
as the wearing down" policy on the
part of the allied armies, and it IS
claimed that the losses Of the attack
ing forces have been enormously
greater than have those of the de-
French reports alone are available
thus far and nothing is reaching the
public in London to enable even ad-
mitted esXperts to form an opinion Of
their real value.
German Flower Fighting.
The heaviest fighting appears to be
taking place along a line from Pc
roinne, in the department of Somme.
to Vervins, in the department of
Aisne. There the flower Of Emperor
Williams army IS trying to pierce the
British defense. Further to the east
he forces Of the German crown prince +
still are attacking the French in the
'egion about Mezieres, the capital Of
he department Of Ardennes.
The only points where the French
lain to have gained successes are in
