ALLIES RETREAT
BRILLIANT FEAT,
EXPERTS ASSERT

London, Dec 16.-The next move in
the Balkan theatre of war occupies
the attention of the Athens and sa-
loniki correspondents of the British
press.
There are 100000 entente troops in
ySaloniki according to the Daily Mail,
whose Saloniki correspondent says
that the retreat of the entente allies
was so brilliantly carried out that
large forces of Bulgarians were un-
able at4any point to overtake and de-

feat them.
According to the correspondents of
the Times and Morning Post, the en-
tente forces will halt on the line from
Karasuli, in northern Greece, on the.
Vardar river, to Killindir, Greece
which they viii try to hold until the.
Saloniki positions are fortified. This
line is already fortified. The CORE
spondent of the Morning Post, adds
the interesting statement, on the au-
thority of the Bulgarian minister at
athens as quoted in a published inter-
view, that Gievgeli and Dorian, south
ern Serbia, both of which are in the
hands of the Teutonic allies, will be
surrendered to Greece.
The Athens correspondent of the
Times says he believes the whole sit
uation turns on whether the Bulga-
rians invade Greece. He asserts he is
very doubtful whether Greece would
sit still under such a move.
