ALLIES SEND NEW
NOTE To BULGARIA
Document, Not UItimatum,
Asks Nation To Declare Itself
In Great War
(By the Associated Press) a..

Paris, Sept. 1S.-The entente allies
have presented joint note to the
Bulgarian government asking in effect
that it declare itself as between them
and the central powers. The note,
however, is not in the nature-Of an
ultimatum.
The note was sent in pursuance OF
decision by the allied powers to test
the good faith Of Bulgaria by submit
ting the recent concessions made by
Serbia with the view Of securing from
bulgaria a definite statement as to
her position.
Although the note does not fix a
date for a reply and is not an ultima :
tum, diplomats familiar with its con-
tents say it is of a nature requiring
bulgaria to take q stand one way or
the other It points out that the allied
powers are now prepared to offer the
Serbian concession on Bulgaria
claims to disputed territory, and asks
if the concessions secured through
the Joint offices of the allies will bring
about Bulgaria S cooperation with
the other Balkan states.
Bulgarian adviCeS were somewhat
contradictory concerning the nature
OF the note.
Regarding the agreement between
Turkey and Bulgaria for the Turkish
| railway concession. the understanding
| here is that the arrangement had beer
! made but that the date for the trans
fer has not yet been definitely fixed
