BODY IN SEA THAT
OF WALTON, ARTIST
Identified After Ten Days in the
Morgue by Doctor Friend.

The body OF the man found ten days
ago three and one-half miles of Rock
Point bell buoy, Rockaway, was identi-
fed yesterday as that Of William Wal
ton, seventy-two years old, we'll
known artist The identification was
made at the Rockaway morgue. where
the body had been since it was dscov-
cred, by DR.. William Hoag, Of 81 Madi-

friend.
Mr.. Walton was known principally
as painter OF figures and landscapes,
and was born in Philadelphia in 1s43.
He studied at the Pennsylvania Acad-
emy Of Fine Arts, the National Acad.
emy of Design and under Carolus Du-
ran in Paris. He was also a writer on
art, and had studio at $50 West
Twenty Street.
Carroll Beckwith, an artist friend Of
Waltons. said at his studio at SO West
Forty-ffth Street last night that there
was not the slightest suspicion of foul
play in Walton's death. 1t often hap
pened, Beckwith said, that Walton went
TO visit some of his marv friends on
Long Island. He suspected that while
on such trip he fell into the sea and
was drowned.

Joffre Forces British to Send
EpervAvailable Man to Sal0nica
French Insisted Withdrawal of Forces from Dardnes
Called West Front Stalemate
yCabefo

Paris. Nov. 23-General Joffre's recent visit to
London changed the entire British plan OF CAM
paien in the Near East He insisted on the prac-
teal abandonment Of the Dardanelles expedition
and also on Great Britains sending not only the
Gallipoli forces to Serbia but every other man
who could possibly be spared
Even before General Joffre went to London
the British had withdrawn practically three-quar-
ters of their troops from Gallipol and were trans
porting them to France. The remaining tourtn
were to hold the positions won so far as they
were able.
1t already had been realized that the weather
would prevent communication between the sup
DIV ships and the shore for many days longer and
all agreed that any further attempts to pierce the
Turkish positions would be sheer madness 1t
was never intended that Sir Charles c. Monro,
N. successor to Sir Ian Hamilton, should make
anv more attacks. He was merely sent to COM
mand the retreat.
General Joffre spared no pains in vigorously
forcing his views on the British Cabinet and the
General staff. He told them plainly that the bat
tie of Loos had had no practical value whatever
In his opinion the results attained were in no way
commensurate with the expenditure of life and
munitions According to Joffre. the position on
the west was a stalemate and hope OF any zeal

there being four other children TO sup

all night. Neighboring towns were
visited and the river dragged, but no
word of the little girl was brought to
her distracted mother.
Sophie was too hysterical last night
to give any account Of her absence be-
yond saying that she had been scared.
The Maplewood police say the girl ar-

Orange, y. j.. Nov. 24.-Two unsold
cans of cocoe and heavy heart drove
ten-year-old Sophie Tsncke from her
home at 101 Alden Street, on Monday.

mo chance OF paying my debts;
guess III take new name, and go to
Canada" reasoned Sophie, as older per
cons have done.
So she took the proud title Of Doro-
thy Gregory, entered cheerfully into
bankruptcy, and got as far as Millburn
Avenue, Maplewood, on her way to Can
ada. There last night she was diseov-
cred by the Orange police, and bundled
back to her home and to her distracted
family.
II was not such an uneventful jour
ney. at that, for a blue-eyed, ten-year-
old debtor who, because she had been
unable to impress the public with the
superior merits of two cans Of cocoa,
found herself unable to meet her OBJ
legations to the athletic fund OF the
Cleveland School.
The little girl was highly hysterical
yesterday. She had wandered about
all Monday afternoon. and late in the
evening had appeared at a store in
Maplewood Avenue, where she received
permission 70 sleep. She made use of
her new name, Dorothy Gregory, of
North Arlington. and disclaimed having
run away from home. Meanwhile it
was thought here she had committed
suicide, and Crystal Lake. West

success was next to impossible. Ihe only nope
was to make a great effort by way OF the
Balkans.
Opposition to these views was exceedingly
strong at first, but Joffre battered down all OBJ
stacles and ultimately was allowed free hand
Consequently, the British troops on the way from
Gaipo were diverted to Salonica, where they
are now being landed
Moreover, 10000 men from England were i'm
rnediatey placed under orders for Serbia, while
all the men available from France will also be
transshipped as soon as possible. 1t is more than
likely that the great war will be decided in the
Balkans after all.
The one factor that decided the British Cabinet
on the point was the belief of the Foreign Office
in London that Germany would never be able to
form any alliance between the Balkan powers.
The view was strongly held that Turkey would
never allow Bulgaria to fight on her territory,
and vice versa, although individually each was
ready to aid Germany On this account it was
confidently believed that cleavage between the
Turks and the Bugars might eventually be
maneuvred.
Most military authorities believe that the Bal
kan campaign will not be long. but at the same
time they fully expect it to be the most sangui-
nary of the entire war.

FOUR ALLIES
MASS TROOPS
FOR BALKANS
italians in Albania; $4,000
Russians to Invade
Bulgaria.
by Cable % The Tripune.l

London, Nov. 23.-That the Allies
are now pouring great numbers of
troops into the Balkans from all direc-
tions for a decisive settling of the
campaign in that quarter is indicated
in various dispatches tonight.
With the withdrawal OF the major
part of the Gallipoli forces for use in
the Balkans for the first time con-
frmed, it is announced that Italy has
begun landing troops in Albania, pre-
paratory to a rapid march overland to
aid the Serbs.
From Berlin. also, comes the report
that $4,000 Russian troops have been
modified at Reni, on the Rumanian
frontier, with 100000 held at Odessa
and 10000 at Ismeii, ready for trans
port to the Balkans.
This report, dated from Bucharest.
for which a semi-ofcial Berlin news
agency apparently takes the response
bility, is as follows:
"The Gar and Czarevitch arrived a,
Reni yesterday to inspect the newly
formed army equipped for action
against Bulgaria. The Car will re-
main three days at Reni. At that place
there will be held in readiness 10000
men, at lsmail 10000 men and at Odessa
100000 men. This army is said to be
very we'll equipped and ready to take
the field in the immediate future"
That many French troops formerly
at the Dardanelles have also been
transferred to Salonica is indicated in
dispatch from General Bailloud's
headquarters at Koustorina, describing
the position of the Allies.
General Bailloud was sent to Gal
lipoli in July TO relieve General Cour-
aud, who was wounded in the fighting.
This report is the first mention OF his
transfer to the Balkans.
British troops are relieving the
French along a part of the koustorina
front, according to the same oispstcn,
indicating their arrival in greater
force.

day alone. while the Bulgsrs around
PriIep took 5000, with many guns.
The German advance is considerably
slower. but whether this is due 70 the
defeat of the Bulgarians, which the
Serbs claim to have administered near
Nonastir and at Velika Plsna, in Cen
trail Serbia, or TO the difficulties of
transport for the invaders is not GER
tain.
An official Serb announcement by
way Of Athens also asserts that the
Serbs have reoccupied their cid posi-
tions on the Veles-Prilep line, and are
advancing toward Babuna to reinforce
the troops defending the Pass. It also
says that the way Of retreat in the
south is still open, and that communi-
cstion: with the French and British are
being maintained.
As Babuna Pass is conceded to have
fallen nearly week ago. and the re-
port in general is so much at variance
with recent accounts OF the situation,
il is believed here that the announce
mcnt may have been delayed in transit
between Athens and London.
