LONDON. Nov. 17.-From Salonika
il is reported that the Bulgarians in
considerable force are attempting
thanking movement around Babuna
pass. descending from Tetovo in the
direction of Gostivar and threatening
Prilep and Monastir.
A late dispatch reports that the
Serbians have been forced TO leave
Babuna pass. The Bulgarians have
taken Kriusevo and are now only six
miles from Prilep.
At Gradsko the French have been
compelled to retire at two, points.
The situation is developing rapidly.
The foreign diplomatic body in
Serbia is preceding TO Scutari. instead
OF to Monastir, whose inhabitants are
preparing TO leave.
Although the French report their
position practically unchanged, heavy
reinforcements 10 the Bulgarian army
in the south have rendered the posi-
ton Of the entente troops somewhat
precariCus.
Trying to Relieve French.
A dispatch from Zurich, purporting
to be from Vienna, asserts that British
and Italian troops are trying to re-
lieve the French near Veles, but it is
not clear how they can reach that
point, nor from where they are COM
ing.
The Bulgarian force near Veles and
Uskup, according to a late Salonika
dispatch. now includes five divisions
probably 100000 men. All, or nearly
all, Of this army has been concen-
trated in front of the French on the
Cerna river and the Serbians in Ba-
buna pass.
Attack after attack has been made
by the Bulgarians upon the French.
Paris reports that all of these attacks
have been repulsed; Berlin claims
that the BulgarS have been victorious
Claims 10000 Bulg;ars Repulsed.
In a dispatch Gen. Serial, the
French ommander-in-chief declares
in the battle on the Cerna river he
was attacked by 80, 600 Bulgarians
but repulsed them on the entire line
with heavy losses to the attackers.
Not a French gun was lost, he says.
Tetovo, the little town west of Us-
kup, about which the fighting has
ragged for several DAYS. has again been
captured by the Bulgars. little
farther west the little town Of Kali
handelen. with 500 prisoners and
much ammunition has been taken by
the Serbs.
Prilep and Monastir apparently are
the immediate detectives OF the Bull
garians
So far as can be Judged from the
conflicting dispatches received here
the advantage, in a general way, is
with the Bulgarians in these opera
tons although the invaders have not
made any material progress in the
last few days.
AUstro- Hungarians Slow Up.
In the north the Austro- Hungarians
continue to advance. although very
slowly. Berlin reports that 1000
serbians were captured Monday to-

to others and to assert that superiority
do not hesitate to appeal to material
forces"

wars just SO long as there are two codes
Of laws and two standards of morality,
one governing nations, the other individ-

keep right on in one place or another.
Even China was preparing. lie blamed
western militarism, which, he said, had
not only parccled China, but had de-
stroyed her ideals of peace, and ho called
Japan the disturber Of the peace in the

If the United states were as un-
| prepared it would fare no better than
China at the hands of the world pow

abandon its concept that Justice is the
foundation of the state and to take up
the practice of brute force.
! Japan is the disturber of the peace
in the Orient. She is essentially a mill

perfect compilation of the militarism of
