LoNpoN. Oct. 9.-The German protest
to Greece against the landing OF Entente
troops at Salonica was follo wed to-day
by similar action on the part Of Bull
garia. The Greek Minister at Sofa was
told by the Bulgarian Premier, NJ.
RadoslavoT, that the developments a,
Salontca were not In accord with the
declarations OF the Greek Government
that IL had no intention Of altering its
ftiendly attitude toward Bulgaria.
Dispatches from Athens make It clear
that German diplomacy IL exerting every
-~ort to create a feeling OF distrust IN
Greece toward the Entente Powers and
to Induce the new Greek Government
to throw as many obstacles as possible
in the way or the Allies. whose only
hope u helping the Serbs lies over the
vaidar Valley railway line.
Premier Radoslavo L. quoted as hav-
Greek Minister:
"If Greece Toes not change her atti-
tude with reference to the violation of
her neutrality the Bulgarian Cabinet
will be unable to guarantee the contin-
u,nce of the favorable sentiments of the
Bulgarian people"
The Greek Cabinet held a three hours
session to-day and IT is understood that
the subject Of dcliberation was the Ger
man protest against the landing OF En-
tente troops at Salonica. So far the
new Hellenic Government has remained
silent respecting the presence OF French
and British troops on Greek territory
and the course 1t will ultimately pursue
in this connection Is entirely a matter OF
conjecture.
