BULGARS BEATEN BY SERBS
in Awkward PosItion-Allies Join
With Serbs.

London.-The Austro-German ana
Bulgarian campaigns In Northern and
Eastern Servia are being carried out
according to plans. despite fierce Ser
Wan resistance, and the Bulgars who
crossed the Timok and took Prahovo
are separated now from the Germans
who crossed the Danube near Orsova
going so well for the invaders in the
south.
Here French troops have Joined
hands with the Serbs and, according to
French accounts, have inflicted a Sc
we're defeat on the Bulgarians at Wri.
volak, 40 miles north Of the point
where the Saloniki-Nish railroad
crosses the Serbo-Greek frontier.
This success places the Bulgarians
who reached Istip, Veles and Uskup
in an awkward position, for a further
advance Of the allied army would
threaten their flanks. In fact, unof-
fetal reports say the advance of the
French, who are being closely fol-
lowed by the British, already has
caused the retirement Of the Bulgars
toward Strumitsa.
The first desire of the Germans is
to open a route through Northeastern
Servia and Bulgaria to Turkey, and
this is on the eve of being accom-
plished.
On the other hand. military writer's
here do not believe that the position
of Servia is so desperate as painted.
1t is serious, but they point out that
the Servians have many natural de-
fensive positions in the mountains, 10
which they can hold out for weeks.

COMPLICATIONS WITH OTHER
COUNTRIES ARE LIKELY TO
FOLLOW EXPOSE.
PRESIDENT TAKES A HAND
Conference With Labor Leader Said
To Be Sisnificant-Secret Serv-
ice Viii Submit Evidence to
State Department.

Observation-Disclosures that Off
Gals high in the councils OF the ad-
ministration regard widespread NUM-
ton plots as potential of international
complications has leaked out here. The
United States secret service has taken
full charge of the Fay case. Aided by
the agents of the department of JUS
tice, the facts as soon as ascertained
will be submitted TO the department of
state.
The state department considers the
Fay bomb plot, upon the evidence thus
far disclosed. as M that involves the
relations toward this government of
II Of the belligerents, rather than af-
~feCting mere individuals. 1t is feared
that when all the facts are ascertained
this plot may involve at least one ma
tion as the directing factor.
That the president is giving this lat.
ter munition plot expose his personal
attention was evidenced by the fact
that President Samuel Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor had a
Commute conference at the White
House on Oct. 20.
Mr.. GOmpers was possessed Of much
detailed information regarding the lat
est effort to tie up munition steamers
and to the cause of a strike among the
longshoremen. This he gave to the
government and upon it was based the
Investigations of the agents of the de-
partment OF Justice, an inquiry that is
still under way.
The attitude OF state department Of
ficials is that these latest revelations
point to an intelligent and insistent eff
fort to violate the neutrality of the
United States.
II these bombs are manufactured un.
der orders from any foreign govern
ment, or if the agents are financed by
any government or its agents, an in
ternational question of grave impor-
lance, administration officials say. is
created.
II this is shown, representations far
more serious than those in the Dumba
Ease will be made to that government.
