ALLIES OPTIMISTIC
OVER OUTCOME

London, Oct. 19.-The report that
the allies have captured Strumftsa
and landed at Enos, which was re-
Gently transferred from Turkey to
Bulgarian rule, has caused q more
optimistic feeling throughout the al
lied countries.
AS to the progress of the near east
ern campaign, it is known from both
Serbian and German accounts that
Field Marshal Won Mackensen's
army is meeting with greater resist
ance than was expected and although
it is probable that the Serbians event
ually must fall back on stronger
strategic positions in the north, the
fact that the allies are bringing heavy
forces against the Bulgarians and SO
placing them that the Bulgarians
will be compelled to divide their
armies, gives hope here that the Ger
mans may be baked in their latest
attempt to reach the Aegean sea and
bring assistance to the Turks.

SIR EDWARD CARSON
RESIGNS FROM CABINET

London, Oct. 10. Sir Edward Car
son, attorney general, has resigned
from the British cabinet. The resig-
nation of the Ulster leader is the first
open manifestation of the divergence
of views known to exist among the
ministers, and is the result, according
to an authoritative statement, not of
the controversy Of CONSUMPTION, but
to the condition of affairs in the near
east.
Sir Edward himself so far has made
no personal explanation of his rea-
sons for resigning, but it is under
stood that he disapproves of the policy
which is being followed in the Balk-
ans and the method of confiding the
whole national policy to small
elmer cabinet" :
It is expected that there will be
exciting debates in the house of COM
mons this week, as severe attacks on
the government are planned by mem
bers of the house in connection with
the general military policy, especially
in the near east. --- ---- -~.=s. .., =

st. Peter, Mimi, Oct. 19.-Indig-
nant over the suspension of four stu
dents, undergraduates of Gustavus
Adolphus college are planning a
sympathy strike They have cali
ed mass meeting fer late this at

o. J. Johnson, in using evidence
which he is said to have collected as
a member of the. Nieollet county
grand jury and then presented at a
meeting of the faculty. .~
President Johnson was drawn as
a member of the grand jury, which
conducted an investigation on a
charge that liquor was being sold to
students in the college in violation
of the state law. Nine students were
subpoenaed and testified. No in
dictment was returned, but the testi-
mony is said to have been used at a
meeting of the college faculty held
today, after the grand jury was dis
charged. AS a result, four students
were suspended for year and three
others placed on probation vi
This action incensed several stu
dents, six of whom gave up their
studies out of sympathy for the four
who were suspended.
It is understood that other students
will leave unless the order of sus-
pension is rescinded. r.

London, Oct. 19.-The Berlin war

TeutOns are advancing south of Bel

The official Bulgarian report re-

Late reports are that the Bulga-
rians have captured Vrania, in Ser
bia. If this town has fallen it is
admitted that the Nish- Salonika rail-
way has been cut by the Bulgarians.
1t is taken here that the substitu-
ton of General Charles Monro for
General Hamilton at the Dardanelles
means that the Dardanelles campaign
has failed instead of the fact that the
British are abandoning the campaign.
That all has not been going well
