London. Oct. 1s.-The entente allies
have effected a Landing at Enos, on the
Aegean sea in European Turkey, close
to the Bulgarian border and have
seized the railroad at that point, ac-
cording to q dispatch from Athens to-
the M~essaggero, OF Rome, transmitted
by h Central News
London. Oct. 19-Serbian and Anglo /
French troops nave occupied the Bull
garian town of Strumitsa, 80 miles
north of Saloniki. according to official
kilograms from Athens. This followSi
closely upon news that Serbians with
allied assistance have repulsed a Bull
garian attack at vilandovo, turning the
advance Of the Bulgars into a retreat
beyond their own border.
Thus the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ac-f$
ton IN the Balkans has leaped out OF
ground Of fact and is asserted by Lon
don military observers to have been
crowned at the outset with success.

dramatic qualities which for the mo-

Serbian strike is the defeat Of the Bull

Germans Forge Ahead.
While Bulgarian and S~erb-French
sorces are clashing for possession OF
the Saloniki-Nish road in southern
Serbia the Austro-German invaders
are continuing their advance from tho
north. Berlin today reported further
progress for the Teutonic armies south
Of Belgrade and in the Pozareyao
region.
In the Macva district on the Save
Drina front, where the Serbians ave
apparently hardly budged since the
beginning of the invasion, they are now
beginning to give way, Berlin reports.
The Bulgarians, messing from the
east to form a junction with the Teu-f
tonic forces coming from the north,
nave captured attulIlOna1 e1ghIS.
Msokensen Asks Help.
Russian and italian help thus far has
been only indirectly exerted by in
creased ag-gressiyeness against the
Austro-Gerlnans, which makes further
DETECTION of Teutonic forces to the
Balkans impracticable. General Won
Mackensen Is reported already to nave
called for reinforcements.
In the eastern theater the Germans
are again attacking the Russian posi-
tons southeast of Riga, but Petrograd
comrnentors regard this to be purely a
demonstration calculated to destract
attention from the Dvinsk region and
Galicia, which have gained greatly in,
Importance with the Balkan develop
ments. 1t is clear that although that
fighting continues with varying sue
cess, the Germans have been unable
to establish themselves on the eastern
bank Of the river Stripa.
With a particularly intense artillery
fire continuing on both sides in the
Champagne region, the French war Of
lice reports slight progress. A strong
barricade to the southeast of Neuville
has been captured and the Givenchy
wood positions have been consolidated.
Check Analo- French.
Hard fighting evidently has been In
progress in several sections of tho
western front. Berlin chronicles the
repulse Of repeated attacks by the
British with strong forces in the vicin-
ty of verme!les and the breaking up
IF French advances at Tahure in tho
Champagne.
Defeat for the French in attempts to
.etalke lost positions south of Leintreq
and IN the Schratzmannelle, in the
Vosges is also reported by the Ger
nan war office. In the official report
noment was in the section of the
souches where it reported three at
