London, Oct 20-Berlin officially
announced the Bulgarian capture Of
,Vranya, on the Saloniki-Nish railroad,
and the capture of the city Of. Obren-
;ovatz, near the border west of Bel
grade, by the Austro. German troops.
The Serbian war Office admits retreat
from Kotchana and rIstib, in southern
Serbia, where the Bulgarians are strik-
ing terrific blows. Details of the Ger
man statement indicate an advance
south Of Belgrade about fifteen miles,
but it is apparent that the Serbians.
are making desperate resistance in'
this section. Their. retreat is ex-
planned by the war office as forced by
the necessity of taking positions which
will be more easily defended, and az

Italy. Declares. War;.
Rome, Oct. 2O.-Italy has declared!
war against Bulgaria.
Italy's declaration Of war means that
she will send an army or a: fleet. and.
maybe both. against the Bulgarian al.
lies OF. Germany in the Balkans. Eng
land, France, Serbia. and. Italy have
now formally declared war against
Bulgaria.
Secret Treaty Bound. Italy.
Ita;y's formal entrance into the hos
tilities in the Balkan theater followed
reports that secret treaty had been
effected binding Italy to help the en-.
tente powers in the Balkans In con-
sheraton for Balkan interests which
Italy will acquire on the eastern side
of the Adriatic If the quadruple en-
tente wins.
That the. entente powers have not
yet given up their. efforts to force
Greece INTO the war against Germany
Is shown by the following dispatch
from Athens:
The British and Russian ministers
on Sunday notified the Greek govern
ment that the entente powers are add
ing heavy requirements to their
troops in the Balkans, At the same
time it was stated that the allied gov
ernments have not yet accepted the
Greek Interpretation of the Graeco-
Serb treaty."
According to the entente powers
Greece is bound by treaty to enter the
war to fight for Serbia.
BuIsars' Hardest Blow.
London. Oct. 2O.-By capturing
Vranje, on the Salonik: -Nish railway.
the Bulgarians have struck their hard
est blow at the Serbs.
The Serbian army in the North.
which Is engaged on front south OF
the Drtna, Save and Danube rivers. Is
out off from further Anglo-French re-
endorsements.
The Italian declaration of war is ex-
pected to have some politice: effect as
we'll as a material advantage for the
allies. Agents of the entente powers
in Bucharest and Athens can use 1t as
another argument in favor Of the en-
trance of these countries into the con-
tiict against Germany.
A dispatch from Athens said that
the Greek government has been in
structed that more re-enforcements
for the allies are being sent to Sa-
loniki." This may refer to Italian
troops.

This season will probably break
the rainfall record of a generation.
The precipitation has been general
which has greatly benefited the semi
arid sections of the country, and in
iured the ccrn crop in Iowa and ad-
jacent states.
Notwithstanding the strangle-hold
old Jupiter Pluvius got on her corn
crop, Iowa is going to show up smll-
ing, this wear with goodly load OF
agricultural wealth.
With a record wheat crop, no END
of oats and barley and hay and for
age, Iowa's prosperity wave will not
be checked to any great extent.

For more definite evidence Of the
tremendous syndication and wide
sympathies of armor-plate patriotism,
an examinati ton of the Harvey United
Steel Co. of London, is instructive
and entertaining.
The Harvey United Steel Co. (see
British Stock Exchange Yearbook,
1912, p. 1211.)-Was registered July
16 1901, to amalgamate or control
four other companies holding the
rights of the Harvey patients for
treating steel, including the Harvey
Steel Co. Of Great Britain Itd. land
the Harvey Continental Steel Co.
(Ltd.)
They were also licenscrs for the
Krupp and Charpy processes of hard
ening armor plate.
All the peace societies in the world
have not been able in a. cnetury of
labor to effect such an international
alliance for peace as the Harvey
Co., in few months, succeeded in
effecting a worldwide organization
for preparation for war.
Although paying handsome divi-
dends, it is claimed that this ccm-
|pany has been voluntarily wound up
during the last year, after the de-
visions of two extraordinary general
meetings held On July Is and 81,
1912, but it Is very difficult to feel
sure that this International associa-
ton of patriots fer profits is really
dead and that it has not been re
surrected in some less discoverable
form.
These are the firms which, band
ed together, were known as the
