Big Question, Now Agtating Eu-
rope, Is Possibility of BulgarS
and TeutOnS Pressing After
Allies Into Greece.
GREECE WILL HAVE
DAYS TO PREPARE
British Retreat From Serbia Said
to Have Been Orderly and
Without Great Loss; German
Claims Are Exactly Opposite.

LONDON Dec 13.-British and
French troops have successfully re-
tired from Serbia across the Greek
frontier BY arrangements with
Greece a clear road was left for the
allies to retire on SalouiH. which is
being organized as a base. The Ger
mans claim Approximately two Eng
lish divisions were annihilatcd,' dur
ing The retirement London consid-
ers this an eNaggeration.
Athens and Salonik accounts say
the retreat was orderly without heavy
losses. BY the destruction Of rail
way bridges and roads and "a stubborn
resistance by the British rear guard,
i'm one which two companies lnniskil-
ling regiment sacrificed themselves
saving their comrades, the Bulgarians
were kept at a fairly safe distance.
The question arises whether the Bul-
garians and Teutons will follow the
allies into Greece and what action
Greece win take If they should.
The British report the Turkish at
tacks on Kut-el-Amara. where British
reinforcement sare arriving TO have

also reported to have been near the

Austrian Charge Calls on Lansing
Seeking Informal information
as to What the U. S. Will Ex-
peCt From the AustrianS.
ANC0NA'S SUBMARINE
MAY HAVE BEEN SUNK
Such an Occurrence Would Have
Bearing on the Case; Attack
on American TankerS Will Be
Taken Up.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-It is eN-
pected that Austria's reply to Ameri-
cas- Ancona note viii arrive by tho
end of the week. This was expressed
after the Austrian embassy charge
had conferred with Secretary Lansing
It is understood the charge attempted
to gain, informally. information for
Austria on an understanding of what
would satisfy the United States. II is
said the charge did not indicate the
probable action of Auctria. explaining
he had not heard from the Foreign
Office upon the subject
Officials are interested in press dis
patches reporting the AustrIans are
unable to communicate with the com
mander Of the submarine which sunk
the Ancona. Il is suggested the yes
sci might have been destroyed
Should this be the case. it is be-
lieyed the fact would play an import
ant part in Austria's consideration for
reply to the United States. Before
acting. regarding the recent attacks
on American tankers in the Mediter-
ranean by submarines flying the A.
merican tlag, the State Department
will await detailed information.
The dispatches relating to the Com
munipaw are particularly puzzling.
Consular cablegrams from Malta an
nounced the Communipaw had arrived
today at Alexandria, Egypt and that
casualties would be reported by Alex
andria" previous dispatch told Of
the arrival of the Communipaw at Al
eXandria December 3 and Of her sail
ing December z.
The Malta report is presumed to
mean the Communipaw returned to
Alexandria after encountering anoth-
er submarine, which attacked, killed
or wounded some of the Communipaws
crew.
The attention of official and diplo-
matte circles is attracted to the por.
tion of the Ancona note referring 10
the "acquiescence by Germany i'm
the attitude of the United States to.
ward the use of submarines. The ref
erence served to accelerate specula.
tion to the effect that a satisfactory
or unsatisfactory answer to the note
would have upon the negotiations OF
the United States and Germany re-
garding the Lusitania.

GOOD RADIANCE.

Pacific Mail Steamship Co. definitely fixes
Nov. as the date for its withdrawal from trade
as an American concern. The reason is that.
under the La Toilette law, it cannot have Chi
nese crews, which are cheaper than American
crews and cannot understand orders in times of
catastrophies like the sinking of the Tintanic
Let the Pacific Steamship Co. withdraw, and
be hanged If there are any other American

American labor with Chinese at the risk of
American lives let them also withdraw! Such
concerns are too heather for America.
