LONDON. Nov. 22.-John Redmond s trip to the front to inspect the British regiments is being followed with great interest in the United Kingdom. The tour of the Irish nationalist leader opened dramatically. according to the accounts forwarded by the correspn- dents.
 MT. Redmond was making an inspec- ton of battalion Of the Royal Nun ster F'usileers, which had taken a not able part in the fight from the first days of the British entry into France. The inspection took place close to the trenches and a German aeroplane ap- peared overhead just as MT. Redmond arrived.
 The British artillery opened on the aeroplane from all directions. some shell fragmants fell unpleasantly near to MT. Redmond and his party and the inspection was abruptly concluded.
 The Irish leader has been making speeches to the troops and they have been received with unbounded enthu- siasm. &T

munition already have arrived at the Gallipoli Peninsula for reinforcement of the Turkish artillery. In this con- nection, interest attaches to the recent speeches in the house of commons of A. Ronar-Law, British secretary for the colonies who was preparing public opinion for evacuation of the Gallipoli Peninsula in the near future. Field Marshal Kitchener is to decide to what part of the world the Dardanelles army shall be transferred. It probably will all be sent to Saloniki.
 No one expects Italy to give assist ance to entente loops in Macedonia. Field Marshal Kitchener himself made an attempt in Rome to obtain a promise of troops, at least for Egypt, in case England should be obliged to send endorsements to India and Southern Persia from her army in Egypt.
 The Italian losses on the Isonzo front have been appalling. If attempts to conquer Gorizia once more fail, Italian public opinion will not consent under any circumstances to the use of Italian troops outside of Italy in order to help England out of her embarrass- ments after her failures at the Darda- nelles and in Serbia"

Car torysk. little village unknown before the war and which became famous for the bitter fighting that has occurred around t, is again in the possession of the Russians, who evidently let the Germans enter simply to shell them out the next day.
 The German attack. which met with initial success, was doomed to final failure. as the country around it is great marsh, and in the opinion of Petrograd. the offensive was taken for political. not military purposes, with the object of impressing the Ru- manians.

 they mean what they say the allies have declared a commercial blockade of the Hellenic empire, according to dispatches from Athens.
 There is no confirmation of these
 statements available here, but it is certain that Lord Kitchener, the Brit ish war secretary, who had an hours audience with the King of Greece yes terday and afterward saw Premier SkoulOudis, took a firm stand and told them what the allies could and would do unless the demands were conceded.
 The Greek cabinet met to consider the situation and a few hours should show what C;reeces future attitude will he. The Greek government has again affirmed it's friendliness to the allies, but has not yet taken the steps re- ouired to prevent Greece from being counted among the friends of the cen tral powers. &SsK&
 The entente allies will not tolerate any delay; the position of the Serbian armies make any prolongation of the present uncertainty impossible. Already the Serbians are making what may be their last stand before Monastir and also on the plains of kossoVo.
 The Bulgarians, it is true, are being held up by unfavorable weather con- ditions, but they must be almost at the gates of the Macedonian capitol by this time: while the Austro- Germans and Bulgarians are slowly but surely pressing back the northern army.
