Formal DenieI of Statements Made by
 German Press.

London. Nov. 19, p. m.-The India office today made formal announce ment that German press statements circulated in foreign countries regard ing disorders in India are absolutely unfounded. The announcement specific ally denies the report that revolt has broken out anywhere in India or that Brahmins, Buddhists and Mohammed- ans have united to make difficulties for the "detested English, as stated from German sources"
 Denial likewise is given to the as- sertion that the Rajah of Bhagalpur has headed any uprising, or that grave disorders already have occurred in Bombay, Madras, Nagapur, Alahabd and Maspur, or that rebels have inter- fered with the departure of native troops. causing the British troops to retire and subsequently, occupy their barracks and arsenals.

The critical situation of the Serbian army, harassed by the armies of the Teutinoc allies, daily is becoming more acute. In the north the line of the invaders is pushing the Serbs and their Montenegrin allies farther and farther west and from the maps it would appear that their only avenues of escape now lead into Eastern Mont enegro and Northern Albania.
 In the south, if, as unofficial reports have it, Monastir has fallen into the hands of the Bulgarians. the Serbs here must, in the face of the great odds against them, either cross the Greek border or enter southeastern AL bania through the Lake Jezero and Lake Ochrida regions.
 To the east in the extreme south ern portion of the mountain Kingdom, the Bulgarians have been on the of fensfye against the French in the vii -cinity of Strumitsa, but, according to Paris, they were. repulsed with heavy casualties. Nothing is known of the operations of the British in the south ern region against the Bulgarians.
 Whether the Greeks will permit the Serbs in retreat from Monastir. to en- ter taeirs7 territory without being intern 2 ed. or whether the Angloe French forces would be allowed to do so in the event that they are pushed back by the BulgariaHs, has not yet become known. Conversations between the representatives of Great Britain and France at Athens are said to be still in progress concerning this point, while Earl Kitchener, the British war secretary; and General Sarrail the French commander-i%-chie in the Near East, have conferred at Saloniki on the entire Near Eastern situation. In addition Denys Cochin, a member of the French cabinet. has had an in- terview at Athens with King Constan- tine.

RENEWAL OF SHoEMAKING AT
 MASSACHUSETTS REFoRMAToRY
Recommended by State Confusion on
 Economy and Efficiency.

Boston, Nov. 19.-Re- establishment of shoemaking at the Massachusetts reformatory, which was discontinued year ago as a prison industry, was recommended by the state commission on economy and efficiency in a special report submitted to Governor Walsh and the executive council today. The commission gave two reasons for its recommendation, the first being that the industry earned a substantial profit. The commission declared that this profit would have been increased materially had there not been a con- tract stipalating that 40 per cent, and later 50 per cent, of the net profit be paid to the purchasing and selling agent for his services.
 The fact that shoemaking is Mas sachusetts industry in which dis charged prisoners may readily find ployment at good wages was given as another reason.

 WITH FIFTEEN PHYSICIANS
Before Deciding 1t Would Be Better to | Let the BolIinger Infant Die.

Chicago, Nov. 19.-Dr. Haisclden testifying at the inquest, on the BoI- nnger infant, said he had consulted with fifteen physicians before decidinC 1t would be best to let the child die. He said that all except one of these other doctors agreed with him that the case was hopeless.
 Replying to questions by the cor oner, Dr. Haiselden said:
 The father left the case in my hands entirely. After a conference I came to the conclusion that it would be best not to operate. It would re- quire a delicate operation to prolong the chlid's life and had it died under an operation I might have been ac- cused of killing it. A dangerous sur gical operation would have gained nothing for the child. Without an on eratlon there was no chance for 1t to live"
