he realized that the train was upon

PETROGRAD, November 4.-The Rus.

1 kan affairs:
| The reproaches in the German press
against the allies for violating Greek
| territory are not Justified. The allies
had been invited by Greece to send
troops through her territory to help
her ally. She had even mobilixed with
that object in view.
| "a change in cabinet in Athens has
4 brought about no modification in the
Hellenic policy respecting the passage
of troops. although it has resulted in a
| decision to maintain neutrality.
The imperial government, as also its
| allies. would have considered not only
| disloyal, but morally criminal, an act
| contrary to the principles Of right and
| justice. which have determined Russia
! to come to the defense of signed trea-
ties and of the independence Of peoples.
Strong Greece Desired. !:
"To divest war OF all its moral
strength would be folly. If not a blum
der. We want strong and independent
Greece, and we are ready to recognize
| in her behalf the territorial enlarge
| ments which she needs to this end in
| Europe and Asia Minor. We hope that
force Of circumstances will lead her to
the conviction that not only right but
might is on the side Of the entente.
THE relations between Russia and
Rumania. which during the last decade
had been placed on the basis Of good
neighborly relations and common in
terests. became stronger still during
the second Balkan war and by reason
OF the Bucharest peace treaty. Rumania
Is great country, which has right to
realize her national ideal. Russia has
the justice fthese ambitions.

ommend action by Rumania on the side
Of the quadruple entente. When the
hour for a confraternity Of arms sounds
we are certain that the thought will be
crowned with the same success that
attended the last war with Turkey.
Attitude Toward Bulgaria.
'The entente powers from the be-
ginning of the Balkan crisis understood
the real game Of Bulgaria, and all
! their efforts were directed toward
avoiding fratricidal war between two
Slavic nations. These efforts, with a
setback owing to the policy of King
Ferdinand. who. Notwithstanding he Is
the sovereign of a Slavic people, has
remained German in sentiment.
Russia. as proclaimed in the impe-
rial manifesto, does not confound King
Ferdinand and the Bulgarian people.
and will always be ready to proffer a
| friendly hand to the Bulgarians when
| they understand to what an abyss
King Ferdinand's policy has carried
! them and when they come to range
themselves on the side of the allies"
