READY FOR ATTACK.
Big RUSSIAN ARMY EXPECTED TO
| STRIKE AT BULGARiA-RoU-
MANIA MAY AID.
CIVILIANS FLEE RusTcHuk
iTeutons and Turks Will Be Used
Against invaders - 5ulgars Not
Trusted-capture of Monastir Near
and Town Is Being Evacuated.

London, Dec. Germany is rush
ing preparations to meet the real at
tack that she has been expecting in
the Balkans.
From all indications the Russian
army of 100000 is about to strike in
Bulgaria, and the army of King Fer
dinand of Roumania will join the cars
troops.
1t is not believed here that the
Germans are unprepared.
The greatest obstacle to harmonious
action by the entente allies in the
near East is now believed removed.
Official messages received in London
by the Greek consulate seem to bear
out the news dispatches from Athens
and Saloniki that the Greek govern
ments final reply to the demands OF
the allies will be satisfactory and that
Greece will not impede the operations
of the allies or the Serbians in the
efforts to unite, perhaps on Greek soil,
to strike at the Austro-G and
the Bulgars.
Bucharest reports that the Bulga-
rians have ordered all civilians from
the town Of Rustchuk, where the Rus
sian blow is expected to fall first.
Signs have multiplied in the last
few days that Roumania has definitely
aligned herself with the entente allies.
There were rumors of it when the
Bucharest parliament opened on Sum
day. The fact that the allies have
10000 men in the Balkans and that
the Russians are sending 100000 more
adds to this belief, because it was
generally known that Roumania was
waiting for the allies to have half a
million men in the near East before
deciding to throw in her lot with
them.
Monastir's fall is expected at any
moment. Athens reports. all civilians
have been ordered to evacuate the
place.

SERBS ARE CRUSHED
OFFICIAL STATEMENT ISSUED At
BERLIN SAYS CAMPAIGN HAS
COME TO END.
PURPOSE IS ACCOMPLISHED
Rudnlk Captured and King Peters
Army Is Fleeing Into the Albanian
Mountains-French Lose 10000 Men
and Situation Is Serious.

Berlin, Nov. 30.-Main headquarters
In the army on Sunday issued the fol-
lowing official statement of operations
in the Balkans:
"The procession of the Serbian cam
paign continues.
"Rudnik, southwest of Mitrovitza,
has been occupied by our allied troops.
More than 1900 Serbians were made
prisoners and large quantities Of war
material was captured.
with the fight of the scanty re-
mainder of the Serbian army into the
Albanian mountains. our great opera
tions against this army are brought to
a close. Our object of establishing
communication with Bulgaria and the
Turkish empire has been accom-
plished."
1.-THE allies situation in the Balkans
is desperate. The French losses on
the Krivoiak line are estimated at
10000 dead, while their retreat has
been made extremely difficult"
The Austro-G German campaign in
Serbia, including the uninterrupted
prosecution Of the enemy for more
than 125 miles through most difficult
and inhospitable country and in spite
of bad weather and inpracticable
roads, is paralleled in the worlds his
tory only by the prosecution of the
Russians in this campaign.
Up to this time 136,07O Serbians
have been taken prisoners and 627
cannon and SO machine guns captured.
What is left of the Serbian army
will probably keep up guerrilla war
fare, while the saved divisions will
have chance to join the Anglo
French forces, like the Belgians did,
as vanquished and little-esteemed mer-
cenary troops.
