Allies Defeat Blllgarians,

Gradek, Serbia, Via Saloniki, Oct. \ 23, ZOO D. m., and Paris, Oct. 25, a:45 a. m.-The double attempt of the < Stl1garians to cut the railway at Veles and in the Volandovo sector has been completely defeated. Yesterday (Fri- day) the attack on Veles was given up \ and the entire available Bulgarian \ strength was directed southward from Istip along the Gradeskar river spread
 ing. out over a five mile front and ! comprising the village of Rabrovo, 'Volandovo, Piraud, Veszel, Kalkova, Kachova and Hodova, with it's objec { live a short stretch where the railway, running along the east bank of the Vardar river between two bridges, is most pregnable at the Strumitsa Station.
 ' The attack, although furious, inn mediately developed the inferiority of the Bulgarians in contact with the experienced troops of France and England. Heavy losses are reported along the entire line. The Bulgari- ans are withdrawing up the Grades kar Valley, leaving the French in vic- torious possession of the railway from Saloniki to Nogotin, beyond which point the line is not threatened.
 French Losses Slight.
 The French losses were slight. General Serrail, the French com mander in chief, in a statement to The Associated Press characterizes the Bulgarian reports of their advances as fantastic. Nowhere, he said, have they advanced beyond a few unde- tended points of no military value close to the frontier
 An offensive movement by the allies seems imminent. The Greeks seem to tas greatly impressed by the rapidity ard success of the French movement.

ASSUME BLAME FOR
 YALE RULE VIOLATION
NIiddIebrook and Tommers Issue Statements Regarding Barring of
 Baseball Players.

New Haven, Oct. 25.-Louis S. Middlebrook, captain of the Yale 1915 nine, in a statement made public here today, says he feels "alm ost personally responsible '' for, the de- barring of Captain Arthur M. Mil burn and four other baseball players from intercollegiate athletics for vio- lation of the summer baseball rule. He says he understood the conditions under which the men were playing at Quogue, l.. IT, where the infraction occurred, but did not know they con- stituted a violation of the Yale rule.
 It was not until Prof. Robert N. Corwin, chairman of the Yale Ath- letic committee had written him dur ing the summer, says MT. Middle brook, asking if the no-board rule was being kept, that he looked up the rule. He then placed the matter in the hands of George B. Case of New York, the graduate baseball adviser, and subsequently, the athletic commit tee took action. MT. Middlebrook says: 1T knew that college baseball players cannot receive money for summer baseball but I did not know
 until the latter part of July, 1915 that they could not receive board
 under the conditions existing at Quogue. As Yale baseball captain I wish to say should have known the l rules and been in a position to advise I the players against breaking them. I wish to relieve publicly all the players ! and the members of the athletic com
 mittee from 8 responsibility that I
 feel ought to be on my own shoul- ders."
 Bernard Tommers, Yale, 1911, as-
 sistant coach of the baseball team,
 also issued a statement in which he 1 advised the men to play, not knowing l that the conditions under which they
 were to play would be a violation of
 the rule. He adds: 'I should have | known that this was against the elegi- bility rules and as their coach should
 have advised the five players. Under
 the circumstances their action in
 withdrawing from Yale athletics under
 the Yale rule was the unfortunate re-
 suit of my own negligence"
 | Prof. Corwin declined to comment | on the statements or to say whether
 they would have any effect on the
 status of the debarred players

Tho cnse has been treated so fully in the press that it is unnecessary to re- view it.
 But if you ask me if the tales are true which were spread about my trip, which reached a climax in the report that people on board the steamer avoided me, I can only reply that the opposite is true. My wife and I felt ourselves under the necessity of conducting ourselves with reserve to- ward our fellow travellers. It was they who approached us.
 II can only say that not only the Americans but also the British ma rine officers on board were most friendly to us in every respect. Dur

WHEN FIFTH INFANTRY
 OF BENGALESE REVOLTED

MANILA-Four hundred members of the mutinous Indian regiment which revolted at Singapore on Feb ruary 15 have been killed, as we'll as seven German prisoners from the detention camp who joined the na' tives when offered their freedom ac- cording to reports of the uprising brought here by passengers from Singapore. The mutineers are said to have killed all their officers, save the colonel, and then attacked civil ians, several of whom were killed, in cluding one woman.
 The revolt began without warning Half the Fifth Light Infantry of Ben galese, on their way to Egypt, mum bering 800, suddenly attacked and sub dued the other half. Reports brought here are to the effect that the rebel lious troops killed none of the Hindu soldiers who remained loyal, but they did kill some of their officers, includ ing British natives. They then at tackled the houses of civilians, ac cording to the stories, killing men, but sparing the women and children, who sought refuge on the transport Nile lying in the harbor.
 The mutineers offered freedom to all Germans in the detention camp who would join them. Only seven of the prisoners accepted this proposal the others preferred to remain where they were.
 The half regiment which remained loyal soon organized itself and start ed out to attack the mutineers. The troops were joined by Europeans of all ages, who offered their services as volunteers. In the running fights which followed, four-fifths of the re- volting Indians are said to have been killed, and it is believed only about 100 now remain in the country sur rounding Singapore. The troops which were attempting to quell the mutiny were reinforced the following day by sailors landed from French, British, and Japanese warships. The revolt began at a time when there were no war vessels in port.
 Other reports received here from Singapore are to the effect that there are rumors of unrest among the na. tives in Rangoon, Colombo, and Java
