LONDON, November 21.--The entente
allies have demanded that Greece
either join with them and fulfil her
treaty obligations to Serbia de-
mobilize, and TO impress King Constan-
tine that they mean what they say. the
allies have declared commercial
blockade of the Hellenic empire. ac-
cording 10 dispatches from Athens.
No confirmation of these statements
is available here but it is very certain
that Lord Kitchener, the British War
Secretary, who had an hours audience
with the King of Greece yesterday.
and afterwards saw Premier Skou-
loudis. took a firm stand and told them
what the allies could and would do
unless the demands were conceded.
FEW HOURS SHOULD TELL
DECISION OF GREECE
The Greek Cabinet met to consider
the situation. and few hours should
show what Greecc's future attitude
Will be. The Greek government has
again affirmed its friendiiness to the
allies, but has not yet taken the steps
required to prevent Greece from being
counted among the friends of the CEN
trail powers.
The entente powers will not permit
any delay; the position OF the Serbian
armies makes any prolongation Of the
present uncertainty impossible. AL
ready the Serbians are making what
may be their last stand before Monastir
and also on the plains OF kosovo.
The BulSarians. it is true. are being
held up by unfavorable weather con-
ditions, but they must be almost at 'he
gates Of the Macedonian capital by this
time; while the Austro- German and
bulgarian troops are slowly but surely
pressing back the northern army.
The Germans announce day the
capture OF Novipazar, and are, there
fore. on the direct road to Mitrovitza,
which has been the Serbian capital
since Nish fell into the hands of the
BulGarians.
other armies in the north and i'm the
northeast, and even the Montenegrins
who held their positions for so long
are being forced back
FRENCH AND BRITISH TROOPS
MERELY HOLD POSITIONS
OF the French and British troops in
the south. no news has been received
Apparently they are only holding their
positions. and can no longer hope TO

Eartans engaged. According to Ger
man reports. an effort will be made by
the French and British to save the Ser
hians by sending troops through Monte
negro and Albania, but. with poor
roads. IL will take long time for them
to reach the battle field
There is no change on the other
battle fronts. The Italians are still
hghting for Gorizia. and the Russians
are regaihnG ground which they lost

Czartorysk, little village unknown
before the war. and which became
famous for the bitter fighting that has
occurred around il. is again in the pos
session OF the Russians. who evidently
let the Germans enter simply to shell
them out the next day. The German
attack. which met with initial success.
was doomed to final failure as the
country is great marsh. and in the
opinion OF Petrograd, the offensive was
taken for political not military, pur-
poses. with the object of impressin2
