LONDON, November 8.--The fall of
Nish has united solidly the main Bull
garian forces and the Austro- G erman
armies advancing from the north.
Hitherto their communications con
sisted merely of tentative reaching
out of advance guards.
But the -ulgarians and their allies
now hold considerably more than half
of Servia and the Nish railway, one of
HAe chief obiectivos of their cam
paisn.
From Nish the Bulgarian line runs
north in a slight curve, encircling
the Morava river, to Krivivir, where
it joins the main Austro-German
forces. From that point the invaders
line turns at right angle and runs
due west across the broadest part of
SerVia.
The rought semi-circlc made by this
line is contracting and as it does
so, according to German reports, Is
taking a heavy toll of Seryian pris
oners
In southern Servia the fortunes of
yaders. There the Bulgarians ap
parently have received a severe check
! from the Servians, assisted by French
and British troops.
No official confirmation has been
received, however, Of a decisive de-
feat Of the Bulgarians who are at
! tempting to advance into Macedonia
| through Babuna Pass.
South of Strumitza the FRENCH are
| fighting on Bulgarian soil.
The crisis occasioned by the resig
nation of the Greek cabinet has been
met temporarily, and if the chamber
of deputies accepts the new Skoulou
dis ministry the present status may
be continued indefinitely with no
change in the announced policy of
Greece now reiterated of benevolent
neutrality.
On the eastern front severe but in
decisive fighting continues before
Riga and Dvinsk. The offensive move
ment Of the Russians in Galicia
along the Stripa, has been halted, and
the long battle in that region has
ended There are no developments
Of importance on the other fronts
The French are continuing to press
their advance into Bulgaria north
east of Strumitza, a British contin-
gent aiding them a Saloniki dispatch
SAYS, but difficulties of the terrain
makes the progress slow. Likewise
Paris aGvices declare the FreLch
forces the following up their SUI
cesses north of Philip, where juno
ton with the Servians on the Babuna
range is said to be imminent.
On the extreme west Of the Bal
kan front the MonteHegfins claim to
be holding the AGstrians near Gra-
havo, inflicting severe losses in des-
perate battles.
The intention Of Roumania to e
main neutral at ieast for he present,
is emphasized in dispatches from
Bucharest. aAll members Of Darlia-
ment with whom Premier BratianO
has consulted h&ve told him they
consider the governments cours
correct, II is declared. Decided ener-
getic action by the allies to open up
communications in the Balkans will be
necessary to move Roumania in their
favor, the advices indicate.
On the Gallipoli peninsula the
Turks claim their artillery success
fully attacked another allied trans
port an da torpedo boat, setting the
transport on fire. An attack on the
Turkish lines near Seddul Bahr was
repulsed, it is declared.
There has been a cessation of ac-
ftivity on the western front, according
to the official statement from Paris.
