SERBIA REFUSES
To ACCEPT WORD
OF BUlGAR|ANS

tsY MORNING JOURNAL ePeciAL Ltkpup wIRsi
London, April (6:55 p. mD-The
Bulgarian minister in London gave
out the text today of a note from his
government disclaiming responsibility
for the recent invasion of Serbia by a
force described as Bulgarian irregu-
lars. The note repeats in the main
what has already been set forth in
dispatches from Sofia. IL is said the
uprising was instigated by Turks
among the inhabitants of that part of
Macedonia included in Serbia. These
Turks rose in revolt, the note says,
and fled to Bulgarian territory pur-
sued by Serbian troops.
THE Bulgarian frontier guards per-
formed their duties conscientiously.
trying to protect the Serbian posts
the note continued. This makes it
clear that the whole affair was one
involving the Serbian authorities and
the inhabitants of the affected re-
gions. However, Ws the Instruction
appears to be assuming considerable
dimensions and might bring Serbian
troops in proximity TO the Bulgarian
frontier, Bulgaria requests Serbia to
take all necessary measures TO prevent
Serbian troops from firing at Bull
garian posts, thus provoking, as past
experience has shown, incidents with
serious consequences
In official Serbian quarters in Lon
don this explanation is not accepted
Ii is said that official kilograms re-
ceived today indicate the more at
lacks are being prepared on Bulgarian
soil. with the Immediate object OF
Icutting off supplies of the Serbian
army"
It is added that among the killed
were not only Turks but Austrians
and that on bodies Of the dead were
found documents showing the purpose

lbf MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WtHtl
Washington. April 6.-Government
officials took under consideration to-
day statement from the German
embassy quoting an official message
from the Berlin foreign office in
which responsibility was disclaimed
for the loss of any neutral lives on
board the British steamer Falaba, re-
Gently sunk by a German submarine.
The claim is set up by Germany
that the Falaba, as well as other
British merchantmen, was armed
and that military necessity made it
Impossible for the submarine to give
any longer time than was allowed for
the passengers to escape.
State department officials say that
the death Of Leon G. Thresher, an
American, lost with the Falaba, con-
stitutes a complicated case. If the
German view that all merchantmen
being armed are in the category Of
Warships is accepted. the rights OF
neutrals to travel aboard belligerent
craft Of any kind would be circum-
scribed, Furthermore, Germany con-
tends that sufficient time was permit
ted for the escape of the passengers
ana the intimation is given that II ne
was not included among those saved
there was aneaet of negligence Tor
which the Germans were not respen-
sible.

Dundee and Duffy, Long and Short,
Ready to Fight Tonight

Johnny Dundee is undertaking a
big task tonight when he meets jim
my Duffy of Lockport for ten-rOund
battle in Milwaukee.
Duffy is seven inches taller than
the New York man, has a big al
vantage in reach and will also out
weigh his six to ten pounds, no def
mite limit having beet set for the
men to scale.
In spite of these disadvantages,
friends of Dundee are not backward
about claiming in advance a victory
for their man. He has met the peers
of the lightweight division, as has
Duffy, and neither has ever been dis
graced by lightweight.
Dundee is in the twilight stage be-
tween the feathers and Hghtweights.
He became too heavy for the section
presided over by Johnny Kilbane and
is still little understood for Welsh's
division. Dundee has made a big hit
since he started training here. He
can hit from any position, in prac-
tice, at least, times his blows well and
is fast and aggressive.
Duffy is a stranger to these parts,
though much has been heard of him.
Last winter he boxed Charlie White
in his home town and gave the Chi
cagoan a busy evening. White de-
clares that the tall fellow is hard for
the ordinary lightweight to reach, his |
long arms forming a stout defense.
Mike Gibbons is expected here |
early tomorrow to finish training for |
his fight next Thursday night with !
Jimmy Clabby in Milwaukee. With |
both of the crack middleweights !
working in this city additional in |
terest will be aroused in the scrap. |
This is the real fight of MilWaukee's |
recent ring history, even outclassing |
the White-Ritchie and White-Welsh |
bouts.

Red Doom was announced as one Of

Now DOOM has agreed to sign with

In order to combat the FederalSI
