London. Oct. 1S.-TWO important announcements revealing serious dis satisfaction in high places regarding the situation in the Balkans, and on the Gallipoli peninsula, were made in London tonight.
 The first and the one that will cause the greatest shock to the Brit ish public, was the announcement that Sir Ian Hamilton had been Ie- called as commander at the Darda- ncllcs
 Immediately on the heels of this came an authorized statement that Sir Edward Carson had resigned from tho cabinet.
 Dardanellcs Situation Discourages.
 That all was not goinh well at the Dardanellcs has been admitted In official circles for some time. The recent statement in the house of commons of the heavy losses. which the British troops have suffered, coupled with an admission of com paratively small gains achieved, came almost as blow to the public
 Al that time Viscount Miller even suggested the withdrawal of the al lied troops from Gallipoli, and Lord I.ansdowne stated in the house Of lords that it was impossible for any member of the government to give an undertaking that the troops would be continued there or that they would be withdrawn. < .},
 The official announcement of Gen eral Hamilton's recall makes no ref crence to these matters.
 No public statement was made as to the precise ground of the difference whereupon Sir Edward Carson sev- cred his connection with the calumet, but it is understood the action was taken on what he holds to be fundamental question of nolicy, and he by no means is alone in his attl- tude toward the conduct of the war Course Towards Greece! At the cabinet council held today, crave questions connected with the situation in the Balkans were con sidored The ministers had to con eider not only the position of the pardanelles' enterprise as affected by recent events, but the steps to De taken in the assistance of Servia. and the policy to be pursued toward Greece. The cabinet is giving all It's energies 10 the solution of the com plex nroblems which have arisen.
 It is possible to record considerable progress in settling the problem of recruiting. The ministers are rapidly composing their differences as to the degree of finality to be attributed to Lord Derbv's six weeks efforts. There seems little doubt now that they will frankly accept it as the supreme test of the voluntary system, and be pre-, pared 70 intrduce a compulsory act if it fails. s

Brush Beaten in Attempt to Drive kaIser's Forces From Advanced Position. Which Juts Into the
 English Line.

London, Oct. 16.-The Germans are ma King a desperat2 effort to break through the French line northeast o Souehez and project their advanc, line so far into the French defense that French hill No. 14O will be ex. posed on the flank and forced to with. draw. Activity of the German artillery anG the masslng of considerable bodies o fe-lnforcements at this point betrayed thls plan to the French, and during the past 24 hours repeated German attacks, made after terrific artillery prs paratlons, were thrown back Three times during last night tn. Germans attacked with the bayona1 and bombs, but each time the French machine guns met them with 2 galling fire, while the French batter ies, dropping steady str :ams of high explosive shells along a line that paralled the rear of the advancing Germans, prevented reinforcement ssching them The Germans, conse- quenly. were forced each time to re- tire without reaching their goal.
 The bitterest attack took place on the Hache wood The final effort ot the Germans apparently was to have been made this afternoon, but after their artillery had proceeded at length with an intense cannonade and when the German massed col ,,mns were about to debouch for the attack, the French batteries again threw in front of the infantry their barrier eff fire and the attack was forestalled.
 British Attack Fails.
 On the British front, according to the Berlin report, the English at- tempted to drive in the Germans from an advanced position northeast of Verne Hes, where the German line just far into that of the British. The British attack failed, the Berlin report says.
 Sou h of Somme, the artillery duel which has been raging for several days, is increasing hourly in eintens- ity. A German ambuscade was un- covered by French patrols operating on the leIl Dduk Ol lHe AioHC, 'aAu the Germans were brought in as prison CTS.
 Explode Ammunition Depot.
 German bombardment of Tahure hill continues actively. French sor- ties from the hill have been repulsed French guns, bombarding the German trenches and encampmen's, hit an ammunition depot and caused an ex- plosion.
 Fighting in the Vosges, in the region of Hartmannsweller-kopl taken by the Germans and re-taken by the French within the past rev days. continues, mainly between the artillery, but there have been llveiy combats with hand grenades also m the Schratvamennele ridge.

 RECORD PROGRESS
Nish Statement Charges BuIgars with Atrocities Against Civil Population. Car Ferdinand RecOnsiderS
 Plan to Lead Troops.

London, Oct. 1S.-A late edition of he News publishes the following dis patch from Athens:
 ''rhc Bulearians have been repnlsed along the whole line. The Serbians are now considered secure. and the allies arc advancing against the Bu'@arians.
 The allied troops are being rush. cd 10 tho front hastily"
 A telegram from Salonki states that more Anglo French troops have left for Macedonia. The district of Sirllmitza has been evacuated by the Bulgariars and the fortress has been occupied by the allies.
 Enos. at the eastern end of the Bull garian coast, on the Aegean sea, close to the Bulgarian frontier, has been occupied by landing party of the allies, who have also seized the rail- road which runs from that port to Adrianople and Bulgaria. Allied war- ships continue their blockade of De- deagatch.
 Blockade Prelude to Big Operations.
 It is understood that the blockade of tho Bulgarian coast is a prelimi- nary to extensive land and sea opera tions against Bulgaria and Turkey, Tn which Italy will cooperate with naval squadron.
 Tn Servia, the Bulgarians are press ing their attacks against the railroad which runs from Saloniki through Njsh to Belgrade. Severe fighting is under way at Vranja, the point on the railroad nearest the Bulgarian from tier. and the latest reports received here state that the Bulgarians are being driven back.
 It is said German officers are m command of all Bulgarian operations. A check for the Bnlgarians in their operations against the Nish-Belgrade5 railroad. in addition to the loss of the Bulgarian stronghold of Strumitza' would be serious.
 Te.,tons Make Progress. The Austro-Germans are making progress in the north, but they are meeting with stronger resistance than was expected. The Serbian and Mon- tenegrins are resisting all along the line. and while they have given up numerous towns, they have not yet reached the position where they will make their stand. No confirmation has been received of the cutting of the Nish-Salonlki railroad by Bulgarian troops. An oni- cial statement issued in N!sh said: "Bulgarian cavalry succeeded m entering the Zlotokopska valley north of Vranja, and blew up bridge The report also charged the Bull yarians with unprecedented atroci- ties" against the civil population at all points on the frontier.
 Ferdinand Fears Assassin.
 Czar Ferdinand of Bulgaria. who announced his intention of going to the Serbian front and leading ms army, has abandoned the idea, De- cause of the numerous anonymous threats against his life.
 Roumania has called up the military class of 1916, and decided to keep up to the colors all troops already mob- iliZed.

FEDERAL TRADE
COMMISH QUITS

NEW YORK, June 4.-The federal
trade commission concluded its hear
ing in this city after number Of
business men had appeared before it
and given their views regarding the
proposal to permit American manu-
facturers to combine for the purpose
of competing i'm foreign markets,
principally in South America. with
exporters Of other nations.
With few exceptions the wit
nesses, all Of whom were connected
in one way or another with the ex-
port business, agsecd that export
ing combinations were necessary If
competition abroad was to be success
full. Such COmbinatiOns it was sug-
gcsted, might fix prices and divide
among their members the expenses
attendant upon the marketing Of
goods. The general opinion seemed
TO be that such combinations would
not in any manner affect domestic
prices. Many Of the witnesses said
they believed such cooperation was
impossible unless the sherman anti
trust law should be amended. The
commission had planned To- continue
its hearing tomorrow, but virtually
all the business men invited to ap-
pear finished their testimony today
The commissioners thereupon de-
Cided to return to Washington. Dates
for future hearings have not been
set
