GERMANY TO PROTEST
Paucity of War News is Due to
Storm Which Plays Havoc
with the Cables.

Not only have the Anglo-French
armies been driven out OF Serbia by
the Bulgarians, as Berlin reported
yesterday. but previously their front
was broken through and the French
forces cut off from the British, ac-
cording to an official statement from
Sofia.
Heavy losses were suffered by the
retreating troops, the Bulgarian err
port declares. At one point French
battalion was routed and its COM
mander captured. Macedonian d.
vision was the Bulgarian army unit
which broke through the Allied line
and divided it. In the operation on
the right bank of the vardar long
section OF the French front was
taken by storm.
Protests against any further con-
cesslons by Greece to the Entente AL
lies will be made by Germany, Ath-
ems advices declare. Germany. 1t is
said, already has asked Greece
whether Greek neutrality has been
compromised in any way by the new
facilities accorded the Entente.
The italian chamber Of deputies

demonstration of tribute to the king
and the victorious army at the
front"
Peace discussion may be continued

four Socialist members have signed a
declaration expressing dissatisfaction
with the results of the recent discus
sions.

British firm, a Paris despatch states.
Other means OF increasing the fleet
and decreasing freight rates will be
sought.
Unofficial Berlin has no intimation
as to how the American note on the

1t is not expected in the German CAPT.
tai that the Austro-Hungarian news
papers will comment on the not until
the Vienna cabinet decides definitely
on its course.
Paucity of war news from Europe

which was directed against Sheerness,
was unsuccessful. An aeroplane

Later three British airships tried to
outfiank the German machine, but the
latter was flying too fast and disap-

1t is reported at Dover that a Ger
man aeroplane flying at a great height
passed over the Midway river and
Herne bay Friday. British aeroplanes
and seaplanes we're out on scouting

The spectacle of fight In the air

CELEBRATE PEACE
IN TIME OF WAR
AMERICANS OBSERVE ONE HUN.
DREDTH ANNIVERSARY OF
SIGNING OF GHENT TREATY.
Had Been Planned to Hold ceIebra.
ton In Client, But Ancient City
Is Now Occupied by the
Germans.

New York.-The people OF the
United States and Great Britain OBJ
served December "a as the one hun.
dredth anniversary OF the signing of
the treaty OF Client, by reminding
themselves that the day marks a
century of peace among English.
speaking nations.
The original plans called for a Sc
ries of celebrations in this country
and across the water. II was to have
begun in Client on Christmas eve with
banquet rendered by the burgomast-
er to fifty representatives of the
United States, fifty Englishmen and
fifty Canadians in the hall where the
treaty was signed. but this is upset
by the fact that the ancient Belgian
city is now occupied by the Germans,
with whom England is at war.
To mark the day, the American COM
mittee and the British committee,
which have been arranging for the
peace centenary, issued communica-
lions for simultaneous publication
Thursday morning in the newspapers
In England and the United States.
The British statement expresses the
hope that the disarmed frontier be-
tween the United States and Canada
may long continue as an example to
the world of the safe defense of mu-
tual respect and trust in the affairs
of nations" and prays that the peace
between the British and American
democracies which has long endured
may never be broken"
The British peace centenary COM
mittee has purchased Sulgrave manor,
the ancestral home of George Wash
inston. in England, which was to- be
presented to the American people.
This and other features OF the cele-
bration are to be postponed until
after the war.
