BULGARIA NOTIFIES ALLIES THAT
HER MOBILIZATION Is A DE-
FENsIvE MEASURE.
GREECE READY TO FIGHT
Athens Government Assemblies Troops
and Prepares to Resist Any Ag-
gression of Bulgars Against
Herself or Servia.

London.-Mystery still wells the Bal
kan situation and the intentions of Bull
garia.
Bulgaria, which had been definitely
placed on the side of the central pow
ers, has now, as the result of recent
news from Sofia, informed the entente
powers that her mobilization was or
dered in the national interests and that
it had not the slightest aggressive char
acter.
The text of the note is virtually the
same as the wording of the semi-offi-
cial statement issued at Sofia on Sept.
%, which said the placing OF Bulgaria
into a state of armed neutrality is ex-
planned by changes which recently oc-
Cured in the political situation" ana
that Bulgaria has not the slightest
aggressive intention, but is firmly re
solved to be fully armed to defend her
rights and independence"
The official note to the powers also
was dispatched from Sofia on Sept. %,
so that it was framed before Greek mo-
Utilization had been decided upon
1t has been charged that Bulgaria in
tends to attack servia in an effort to
regain Macedonia. Such an attack, 1t
is pointed out, would bring Greece to
the side of her ally, and, as in the last
Balkan war, Greece, Servia and possi-
bly, Roumania would be found opposed
to Bulgaria.
Roumania has modified and Greece
is taking similar action. Tire conclu-
sion, therefore, has been drawn here
that they, at least. fear Bulgaria has ag-
gressive designs, if not against Greece,
then against Servia.

ON THE BRINK OF WAR
Bulgarian Government Is Dissatisfied
With Servia's Reply--Army Mob
Iizing and Troops Moving.

Sofia, Bulgaria Bulgaria apparent.
ly is on the brink of war. The people
generally believe that hostilities are
imminent. The military authorities
have taken possession of the railways
and ordinary traffic has been sus-
pended.
Diplomatic representatives Of the en-
tente powers generally recognize that
their cause is a lost one, and that Bull
garia is manifesting clearly tendency
toward the central powers. This is
due to the dissatisfaction of the gov
ernment at Servia's reply in the nego-
tiations for territorial concessions in
Macedonia and at the conduct OF
Greece in this connection.
None of the allies representatives
cherishes longer the hope that Bull
garia can be. prevented from joining
with Germany, Austria and Turkey.
In government circles the statement
is made that all the military measures
taken are of preventive nature, de-
signed solely to guard against circum-
stances which might threaten Bull
garia's position in the present situa-
ton, which is developing with extraor-
binary rapidity. These measures con-
sist in turning over the railroads to
the military authorities and suspend
ing ordinary traffic.
Reports from many parts Of Bull
garia tell Of enthusiastic demonstra-
tions in favor Of the government. This
is considered symptomatic of public
feeling.
The formal cession by Turkey of the
territory along the Dedeaghatch rail-
road has been delayed by the action OF
the entente powers in notifying Bull
garia that acceptance would be re-
garded as an unfriendly act.
So far there has been no general
Bulgarian mobilization, but the troops
are leaving their stations throughout
the country.
The capital and the country are
quiet. Public opinion, which was some
what divided a few days ago, is now
stiffening in support of Premier Rad
oslavoff. There are indications that
within a few days comparative una
nimity concerning the governments
action will prevail.

MAY ASK GERMANS RECALL
Letters Written by caot. Won Papen
and Carried by Archibald Anglers
Officials at Washington.

Washington. the result Of the
receipt and publication of the CORE
spondence taken from James F. j. Ar
chibald by British secret service agents
the preponderance of opinion in official
circles now is that this government
will proceed decisively against the fol-
lowing persons:
Capt Franz Won Papen, military at
tache of the German embassy, who has
referred to/ the American people as
"idiotic yankees
Alexander Won Nuber Austrian con-
sui general at New York, who submit
ted to DR.. Constantin Theodor Dumba,
the Austrian ambassador, the plan for
fomenting strikes in munitions plants
in the United States.
William Warm, editor Of the Hunga-
rian paper Szabadsag, who prepared
the memorandum outlining the plan
for interference with the munitions
plants, which was approved by AM
bassador Dumba and was the basis for
the request for his recall
1t can be stated on good authority
that this government will either ask
for the recall of Capt. Won Papen or
hand him his passports; that it will
cancel the exequatur of Consul Gem
eral Won Nuber, and will refer the
case of Warm to the proper depart
ment for such legal action as may
fit his offense
The case Of Ambassador Dumba HIM
self again became one OF serious con-
sideration for the government, princi-
pally because the correspondence re-
vealed he had made comment on the
president, referring to his "self-willed'
temperament, and he discussed the
presidenet's relations to congress.
In this connection the important dis
.covery has been made that Ambassa-
dor Dumba had asked the state depart
ment to arrange for his safe passage
home, and that his request has been
held up by the administration for rea-
sons not fully revealed
Officials say, however, that this gov
ernment will not interest itself to get
aasafe conduct for Ambassador Dumba
until Austria has made direct and
categorical response to the request for
his recall

Chamber of Deputies Will Take Action
to Meet Bulgarian Situation.
Whole Country Aroused.

London-A dispatch to the Exchange
Telegraph Company from Athens says:
"a decree has been promulgated con-
voking the chamber Of deputies on
Wednesday to pass an act of martial
law and to put at the disposal of the
government all the state railways. The
transportation Of merchandise has
been forbidden"
The Greek, Roumanian and Servian
ministers successfully visited Sir Ed
ward Grey on Sept. "a. The Greek min
lister formally communicated to the
foreign secretary telegram from his
government announcing that "in view
of the mobilization of Bulgaria, the
Hellenic government considers it a
measure of elementary prudence to or
der a general mobilization of the Hell
lenic naval and military forces"
1t is. estimated that in addition to
the Greek navy, 350,O00 troops will be
modified within a few days.
Thus. Bulgaria's military prepara-
tions have brought the remaining Bal
kan state under arms, for Roumania
for some time has had her troops
ready for an emergency.
What plans Bulgaria has in mind and
what Greece and Roumania- will do
when these plans mature are still mat
ters for speculation. One thing seems
clear. however. Bulgaria and Turkey,
many years. sworn enemies, have COM
posed their differences.

ADVANCE ALONG 20 MILES OF
FRONT GREATEST SINCE BAT
TIE OF MARINE.
BERLIN ADMITS REVERSE
Heavy Bombardment of Artillery Pre-
pares Way For Successful Infantry
onslaughts.-2o,0 Germans
Are Taken Prisoners.

Londonderry and continuous at
tacks by the British and French have
cost the Germans more than 10000 un-
wounded men taken prisoners and 20
miles of trenches in the west.
Souchez has been stormed and cap
tured, and an advance is reported north
of Arras. The assaults, which began
on the morning Of Sept. 20, at last &C
counts were still raging furiously.
A German official statement for
warded from Berlin admits German re-
verses.
For several weeks there had been an
almost incessant bombardment with
big guns, increasing late last week in
intensity, particularly in the sectors
where infantry attacks took place. This
prepared the way for the general as
sault.
The French. who have the most i'm
portant gain to their credit, made their
chief onset in Champagne, where in
December they made considerable
gain. This attack, backed by tre-
mendous artillery fire, gave them pos
session of more territory than they had
retaken from the Germans since the
latter dug themselves in after the bat
tie of the Marne.
According to the French, the Ger
mans were driven out of their trenches
over a front of Is miles, varying in
depth from two-thirds of mile to two
and a half miles. The French In this
engagement captured $4,000 prisoners.
The Importance of this gain lies in the
fact that every yard of ground taken
in this region weakens the GeTnAE po-
sition around Verdun, from which the
Germans might be compelled to retire
should the French make further ad-
vance.
This attack was made in cooperation
with the British, who attacked on eth
er side of La Bassee Canal. The at
tack south Of the canal was, Field Mar
shall Sir John French reports, COM
plete success. Trenches five miles in
width and about 1000 yards in depth
were taken at this point.
This push forward gives the British
possession of the road from Lens to
La Bassee, which was used by the Ger
mans for moving troops and supplies
north and south and threatens TO out
flank the German troops which hold
the town of Lens.

PARLEY ON SIZE OF LOAN
AnuIo-French Financiers Told That
Half Billion Dollars Is Maximum.
Still Demand Billion.

New York.-Troublesom details
have yet to be adjusted and minor
matters smoothed out before Lord
Reading, representing Great Britain
and France, and j. P. Morgan and as
ssociates, representing American finan-
ciers, sign articles of agreement con-
summating lengthy negotiations look
ing to the ablishnfent of a big An
glo-French credit loan here.
Not the least of these details, 1t has
developed, is the size of the loan. The
foreign representatives, 1t was said.
have been told that the maximum
amount they can get is 5OO,$0OO, 900.
Sir Edward Holden, representing the
Joint stock banks of London, which
stand high among the financial bull
warks of Briton, was reported to have
stood firmly on the ground that the
commissions need was for more than
q half billion dollars and that the max
imum interest rate would not exceed
five per cent.
1t has been reported that the COM
mission had sought to raise billion
dollars on Joint Anglo-French govern
ment notes, without collateral, bear
ing interest at four and one-half per
cent, and that it receded from its po-
sition only in the face of repeated as
surances that it would fail in its mis-
sion unless it could offer better terms.
A five per cent rate then was offered,
1t was said, with the positive assur-
ance that this rate would not be ex-
ceeded.
The demand was still for billion
dollars. Within the past week an
American banker said, the commission
had been compelled to- recede from
this position also.
