RUSSIAN TROOPS IN BULGARIA
BIG BATTLE EXPECTED

Circumstantial accounts of the oc-
cupation of Monastir in southwestern
Serbia, by the Teutonic forces and the
cutting of telegraphic communica-
tions, is regarded here as ample evil
dence that the Macedonian capital
has fallen. No official report has been
received.
The effect of this change in the
situation on the Allies position is
awaited with great interest. Pene-
trating by the invaders into this part
of Macedonia may threaten the Allies
flank in the Vardar and Carna val
leys, where they are on the offensive.
No important events have occurred
there for some time With Monastir
in hostile hands, the Allies may soon
be engaged in an important battle.
The Austrians continue their ad-
vance in Montenegro. Elsewhere in
the northern Balkans, no heavy fight
ing is reported.
Italy's adhesion to the agreement
Of the entente powers to not conclude
a separate peace is welcome news
here. The failure of the Italians to
give more than vague promise of
military support to Serbia caused
some disappointment.
Little light has been thrown on the
mystery of Italy's policy in not de-
claring war on Germany. It is noted
in this connection that other nations
face a similarly deliacte situation.
1T is reported that the Austrian flag
was hoisted over Monastir, after its
occupation by the Teutons, presum-
ably to relieve Bulgaria of the posi-
bility of offending Greece.
The only news from the Russian
front is the report of minor successes
on the Dvina and Styr rivers.
Artillery and mining operations are
reported from the western front.
London, Dec. 3.--The occupation of
Monastir by an Austro-German force
at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon is
reported by the Reuter- Saloniki cor
respondent.
