Abandon Hope Of
Peace In Balkans
Austro- German Officers Arriving in Bulgaria to
Take Charge of New Offensive, According to
Statement by Sir Edward Grey-Allies Must
Support Friends of TT iple Entente

London, Oct. I, 800 p. M-The hope
expressed yesterday that war in the
Balkans might be averted virtually has
been abandoned, according to the be-
lief expressed in official quarters.
Teuton Officers Lead
The statement made by Sir Edward
Grey. the British foreign secretary in
the House Of Commons this afternoon,
confirming rumors that Austro-German
officers had arrived in Bulgaria, just
as they did before Turkey threw in her
lot with the Germanic allies, is taken
by officials to mean that Bulgaria. too,
has definitely decided to join them.
Such move by Bulgaria would result
in the Entente allies being called upon
to keep their promise to support with
all the means in their power those Bal
kan states which remain friendly to
them and who are menaced by the
threatened Bulgarian aggression.
Athens Suspicious
Athens never had much confidence In
tse Bulgarian assurances that Bulgaria :
mobilization was quite innocent, it was
asserted here today, and the other cap
itals have now been forced to the same
conclusion. There is nothing to indicate
the attitude of Rumania, but it has al
ways been taken for granted that her
friendship for Italy and France assured
her continued support Of the cause Of the
Entente Allies. The question arises as to
what assistance the Entente Allies could
give Greece and Serbia It is suggested
that an agreement be made with Greece
that for every soldier sent by her to help
Serbia the Allies would land a soldier
and equipment at Saloniki to protect
Greek territory to the south, and when
the time came to march against Bulga-
ria. 1t is probable that this would be
only one Of the steps taken against Bull
garia should her attitude continue pro-
vocative. which officials now consider 1t
to be, despite the fact that large ma
jority of the people in that country are
believed to be still friendly to the En-
tente Allies, particularly Russia and
England.

COUNT Won BERNSTORFF'S CHECK

Answering the New York Worlds criticisms OF the German propa-
2anda's methods in the United States, DR.. Albert informs us that 1T
is not rue that a effort has att any time been secretly made to influence
American public opinion"
We have his honorable assurances, says the World, that whatever
has been done has been done I'm the OPEN" and for that reason we
ire confident that he and all his associates will be grateful to US fer
giving publicity to Count Won Bernstorfs personal check for S5I"j
drawn to the order of the Fair Play Publishing company. %
Fair Play is one. Of the numerous publications which since tn war
have been used to influence American opinion in favor of Germany.
If is edited by Marcus Braun, an east-ide professional politician VINO
as once connected with the immigration service. Five thousand dollars
is a great deal of money for a generous German ambassador to contrib
ute 20 the Golfers of an obscure publication, even when that publication
is edited by al eastside political leader.
Assuming that there is no secrecy about Count von BernstorHs
check to the Fair Play Publishing company, W take it that the moral
influence of Mir. gBrauns paper will not be diminished by ne pubhc
knowledge that Fair Play is n the pay of the German ambassador.

TWO o OF PEACE

The death upon the san day Of Prof. Paul Ehrlch in Homburg and
DR.. Charles J. Finlay in Havana may briefly cali attention from the
wholesale sacrifice of human life to the courage and devotion of men
who save it.
DR.. Finlays was the sighter renown, but by n means the lighter
accomplishment. A practicing physician, he announced in 1881 TIL theory
of MOSQUITO action n spreading yellow fever, though he had o wait
years for its general acceptance. Though DR.: Fnlay submitted to SELF
incubation to prove his case he lived to the age OF 81, honored in
every cener OF medical research.
DR.. EhrEchs development Of salvarsan is possibly too recent to be
judiciany estimated, but his orig nation of the anttoxn OF diptheria
alone justified the award, in 1908, of half the Nobel prize for medical
advancement. A discovery which a the main factor in reducing deaths
by diptheria in the United State from 41O0 in $4,000 to less than
1000 in 1912, in spite of The 81 at increase of population, has placed
the civilized world under a heavy obligation Of gratitude.
