War SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPLIED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Oct. Special: the
Greek crisis and the severance OF
diplomatic relations between Russia
and Bulgaria are the absorbing feat
ures of the war.
The Russian, French, British and
Italian ministers at Sofia, soon after
the presentation of ~Bulgaria's reply
to the Russian ultimatum, requested
their passports from the Bulgarian
government, on the ground that the
reply was unsatisfactory. This was
followed by a similar request by the
Serbian minister.
Although there is heavy fighting
on the western and eastern battle
fronts. the latest moves on the diplo-
matte c%hessboard in the Balkans
moves which admittedly will have an
important bearing in the great world
game-are holding the attention or
the universe. ~
Divided by avowed intention of the
king of Greece not to assent to the
ultimate policy of Premier Venizelos
and a majority of the parliament that
Greece should come to the aid OF Ser
bia, her treaty ally, the populace or
the Hellenic kingdom has taken sides
with and against war, King Constan-
tin and his followers for the moment,
at least, being in the ascendency.
The Greek cabinet has resigned
and a coalition ministry, headed by
Alexander Zaimis, in which Venizelos
1.-The master of Greece" will have no
portfolio, is probable; Bulgaria has
declined to accede to Russia's ulti-
matum hat she have dom with the
Teutonic powers, and the breaking
off of diplomatic relations between
the two countries and probably with
all the entente powers, and Serbia.
has resulted; King Ferdinan's gov
eminent is reported to have sent an
ultimatum to Serbia demanding Ser
bias acquiescence In Bulgaria's de-
mand for the cession of Macedonia;
French troops will continue to land
in Greece and proceed through that
country to the aid of Serbia, and II
need be against Bulgaria and the
Teutonic allies, regardless OF the
Greek crisis-these are the main de-
velopments In the Balkan situation.
Whether King Constantin will be
able to keep his country out of the
meshes of the war against the wishes
of the followers Of Venizelos is still to
be answered. Behind Constantin 10
said to be the Greek general staff
and the court party. That Venizelos
is strong In his conviction, and that
a majority Of the people Of Greece
are with him In his belief that Greece
J should maintain her treaty agree

Rumania's policy has not yet been
announced. Her troops continNe mo-

dairy, however, and a fact that may
be entirely outside her ultimate plans
is found in a new Russian attack
against the Austrians in Bukowina,
near the northern Rumanian frontier,
where hostilities had been in abey-
ance for a long time. On the western
front the French in Champagne again
have made progress against the Ger
mans, capturing the village of Tahure
and Tahure hill, the latter a point of
support in the German second line of
defense, and have also gained ground
near the Navarin farm. Along the
remainder of the line, both in France
and Belgium, artillery engagements
alone have been fought.
In the Russian theater Petrograd
asserts that the Russian troops in the
region of Dvinsk have met with sue
cess in driving the Germans from the
trenches and capturing several viii
lagos farther south.

can hit her up in 40 at.
Lo! All the people breaketh their
necks to hand him money. A child

eth stick and a half and telleth the
multitude that the child tippeth the
beam at nine pounds. Yea, he lieth
even rs centurian. And the proud
father giveth him cremo.
Behold, the young one grOweth up
and graduateth. And the editor put
teth into his paper swell notice.
Yea, a peach of a notice. He telleth
of the wisdom of the young woman,
and of her exceeding comeliness.
Like unto the roses of Sharon is she
and her gown is played up to beat
the band. And the dressmaker get
teth two score and four iron men.
And the editor getteth note of
thanks from the S. q. G.
The daughter goeth on a journey.
And the editor throweth himself on
the story of the farewell party. 1t
runneth column solid. And the
fair one remembereth him from afar
with picture postal card that cost

Behold, she returneth and the

calleth him one of our most promis-
