BALKAN STATES
MAY JOIN IN WAR
II Roumania Decides to Fight for
Allies, Bulgaria Probably Will
Take Similar Action.
GREECE ALSO INTERESTED
Little or No Change Either on
Eastern or Western Fronts
in Europe.
GREECE ALSO INTERESTED

LONDON, May 22-Only the formal
declaration OF war now Is necessary to
complete the breach between Italy and
her former allies of the triple alliance
ana this is expected at any moment
The bassadors remain at their
posts. but news comes that the Italian
consul at Munich has been ordered TO
return TO Rome, and throughout the
country nationals are packing belong
ings In expectation of a final rupture.
Should that come. 1t Is not expected
that 1t would have any Immediate effect
on the battles now in progress, but 1t
would likely affect the action of the
Balkans. Roumania, II is reported to-
night, has received assurances from
Bulgaria that II Roumania decides to
join tho allies and help Russia by an
Invasion OF Pennsylvania. Bulgaria will
not attack her, and that in fact Bull
garia herself is considering the posi-
bility of taking similar action, although
her attack would be directed against
Turkey.
GREECE INTERESTED
IN DEVELOPMENTS
Greece also is interested in the de-
relopments. and her efforts II she
should decide to join the allies, would
mean action in the Dardanelles and
Asia Minor. In the latter theaters the
allies continue their activities, and the
official report issued to-day confirms
the dispatch sent by General Hamilton
to Australia, that in an attack on Aus
tralian and New Zealand positions. the
Turks are said to have suffered n loss
of 1000 men, of whom 1000 men were
killed. This report does not mention
operations against Smyrna. hut from
Turkish and other sources 1t is learned
the allies are almost as active there as
they are on the Galllpoli Peninsula
There is little or no change either on
the eastern or western fronts in Eu-
rope. The Austrians and Germans
claim no further progress In their
offensive in Middle Galicia. and so the
British military critics draw the con-
clusion that the big battering ram which
drove the Russians eastward, and at
some points across the San River, have
been brought to standstil! against the
bulwark of the Russian re-enforcc-
ments. Stubborn fighting, however,
continues, and il may be several days
before either side can claim definite re-
suits.

morrow (Sunday) a state OF war exists
in the Italian provinces bordering on

night in the following rc6;al decree:
From May 90 state OF war is de-
clarcd In the provinces OF Sondrio.
Rrescia. Verona. Vicenza, Belluno,
udine. Venetia, Treviso, Padua. Mantua

munes on the Adriatic coast, as we'll as

clarcd in state of resistance This
proclamation is made by the order OF

y dispatch from Vienna says:
The Italian ambassador the Duke OF
Avarna, leaves to-day for Rome. Aus
tria has asked the United States to take
over the protection OF Austrian sub
jccts in italy. The American govern
mcnt has transmitted instructions to
its ambassadors in Austria and Italy"

THRoUGHOUT ENTIRE CITY
The notices OF general mobilization
and the declaration of war caused a
wild outburst OF enthusiasm through
the entire city. Crowds thronged the
streets twenty deep. The only senti-
ment was one of deep. heartfelt JOY that
At last the die is cast, and Italy is freed
from an alliance which always has been
burdcnsome.
There was not single note OF re-
gret or hcsitancy. The soldiers called
are eager to leave for the front.
Several clashes between Austrian
outposts which had advanced across the
frontier and Italian Alpine troops. who
drove them back up the passes are re-
ported from various points along the
border. The italian forces did not pur-
sue tho Austrians beyond tho boundary
line. 1t is not known whether any
bloodshcd occurred
The whole country has responded as
one man. Tho morale Is unsurpass-
able. The organization was so perfect
and advance arrangements had been so
carefully made that ordinary railway
service remains undisturbed. something
which has been accomplished In no
other country.
The first hint that war was declared

5 SETS TRIPLETS
BORN TO COUPLE

South Bend, Ind, March 16.-
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Scott, who
dwelt near South Whitley, have
gone to establish a new home. Their
hope is to find in Kansas or Okla
homa enough tillable land to pro-
vide employment and sustenance
for the -Scott-family, and
it is some family; in fact, a record
breaker.
Although married only ten years,
Mr.. and Mrs. Scott are the parents
of nineteen children, thirteen of
whom are living, all sons and all
under the age of years.
AS explained by Frank M. Pugh,
the Scots held the record for trip
let's, five sets having been born to
them.
While enroute to the west, Mrs.
Scott boarde a train with her brood
and nonplussed the conductor by
presenting one first class ticket.
