A serious riot in Berlin during the
weekend began in butter and milk

that small towns and villages, mostly

Chivalry When TOrpedoed.

London. Nov. lo-The Morning
Post" correspondent sends us story
told by the captain Of French cruiser
which illustrates the important part
being played by many of the noble
women in the war. The captain was
instrumental in saving a number OF
lives of passengers when British

in the Kgean Sea, on board of which
were thirty-six nursing sisters, of
whom ten were drowned.
When the French boats came on he
scene the nurses called out with one

Petrogrsd, Nov. 10 dispatch 10 Lon
don Morning PostO.-I have had the
honor,-of discussing the present situa-
tion at some length with NJ. SazonoR
Minister of Foreign Relations.
1--WE are graphing with power
which threatens 10 overturn the whole

the world Of Christendom," said NJ.
SazOnoff. "The future of European cul-
ture is opposed to German kultur and
depends on the overthrow Of this power
and the means taken 10 prevent It's
ever breaking out again"
1--WE must have the policy OF this
century based firmly on the alliance
between Russia, England and France.
Other nations probably will come into
our alliance, but we three must form
the nucleus.
"We must say 20 Germany: These
are your frontiers and your limits.
Work within them as you please, but
out into the world you 20 no more
We have had enough Of the disinte-
grating influence you bring TO bear IN
every quarter of the world. We desire
70 live at peace as Christian nations.
Your unscrupulous rule, based on the
principle Of armed force, has threat
ened 10 enslave the world. That prin-
ciple is abhorrent 70 us all.
"'You must be content 10 stay quietly

"That is what Russia, England and

conviction that II the policy OF the

London. Nov. 10.-The activity or
hostile submarines in the Mediterra-
mean Sea has resulted in the ltalian'
British and French warships commenc-
ing strong campaign to capture or de-
,troy the underwater boats.
In addition 70 the Ancona and France,
the British steamers Moorina. Cali
fornian and Clan MacAlister have been
sunk and the British transport Mer-
clan shelled with loss of twenty-three
men killed. fifty wounded and thirty
missing. The Mercian succeeded in
reaching port.
Just as Britain was beginning TO
breathe easier and believe herself freed
from the Teuton submarine menace,
which was supposed 10 have come TO IL
end with the departure of Won TirpiU
from the German Admiralty. a new cut
burst of activity in the Mediterranean
has given rise to the greatest anxiety.
Recent advices have indicated that
Germany WAS sending large part or
her submarine feet to the Mediter-
ranean. She was said to have virtually
abandoned her campaign in British
waters on account Of the agreement
entered into with the United States,
and to have determined TO prosecute
more actively operations against ship
ping Of the Allies in the Mediterra-
mean. inaugurated several weeks ago.

German submarines had passed Gibral-
tar and sunk three vessels.
On October Is Count Won Bernstorf.

ton. announced that German subma'
rines recently had sunk twenty-three
vessels. including four transports, be-
longing TO the Allies in Mediterranean
waters.
Already the Admiralty experts are
reported as having turned their atten-
tion TO this new campaign, which began
with the sinking of four French craft
off Gibraltar last week and has con-
tinued with the torpedoing of the ltal-
ian liner Ancona and the attack on the
British transport Moorina.

ported as sunk, while British destroyers

and children immigrants, passen-
gers on the italian liner Ancona,

entity. the victims Of the submarine
which attacked the steamer In the
Mediterranean on Sunday, number
more than $50.
That the submarine which sank
the steamer was German, although
carrying the Austrian colors, is the
assertion made by survivors of the
Ancona. according to reports which
have reached Rome. A dispatch
from the Stefani News Agency Of
Rome says that 100 shells were fired
into the vessel before she was tor
pedoed.
Rome and Milan dispatches to the
London morning papers allege that
when the submarine gave chase, the
Ancona increased her speed, but the
submarine slowly caught up TO her and
began firing. repeatedly hitting the
stern Of the vessel.
Panic on the Liner.
Scenes of panic occurred aboard the
Ancona, when eventually the captain
gave up his attempt TO escape. Then.
after further sheling, the submarine
fired torpedo.
The Ancona listed and began to sink.

RETREATING SERBS
More Guns Captured at Nish-
Bulgars Thrown Back at
Babuna Pass.

London, Nov. 10. French troops rave
recaptured Veles. in Southern Serbia
from the Bulgarians, according to Off
cial advices received tonight from
Monastir.
From the beginning of the Serbian
campaign this Macedonian town has
been a shuttlecock between Serbs and
Bulgars. Dominating the road TO Uskub
from the south and the important rail
way to Nish, il was likewise, through
the Babuna Pass, the key to Prilep and
Monastir.
1t was finally captured by the Bull
garians, who Immediately threw force
southwark in an effort TO seize the
pass. Here one of the fiercest battles
of the war has gone on for weeks, the
Serbs repulsing all attacks, while the
French sought 10 send reinforccments
to them.
By the recapture of Veles. the Bull
garians who have penetrated beyond
the Vardar are put in imminent danger
of being cut off, while the Bulgar hold
of Uskub itself, about thirty miles to
the northwest, is seriously threatened.
Dispatches from Salonica, however,
published in morning papers here under
date of Tuesday evening, deny posi-
lively that Veles has been occupied by
the French. They give circumstan-
.ial story Of the manner in which that
report became circulated.
"A small French cavalry force says
one dispatch, penetrated the Bulgarian
lines near Veles, but failed actually to
enter the town. A misunderstanding or
the nature Of cavalry raid led the Ser
bisn official Mt Gievgeli to send out a
telegraphic message that Veles had
been occupied"

Awaiting Monros Arrival.

DESPITE this substantial Allied success
and he growing pressure about the
Bulgar stronghold Of Strumnitza, { Is
not believed here that the Allies are yet
ready for any sustained effort to eNpel
Serbia's invaders.
Not only is the eXpeditionary force
probably still inadequate, but this move

Nonro. the new British commander IN

possibly of Lord Kitchener himself, VINO

to-day that General Monro's arrival is
imminent.
In the meantime practically the whole
of Serbian resistance in the north has
been overwhelmed, with the Teutons
and Bulgars now directing their atten-
tion to as rapid a reorganization and
fertilization Of the country IN their
possession as possible.
Instead Of announcing the capture OF
important towns and the defeat OF
armies. the Berlin official report con-
tents itself with the general statement
that ithe pursuit is being continued
vigorously everywhere and the nl'ra-
tion Of booty in Teuton hands.
Thus the cannon captured at Kruse-
vac now number l0j. instead Of the fifty

than one hundred guns fell into the
hands of the Bulgarians, with twelve
more at Leskoyac.

The Zealandia sailed from Pensacola,

was reported TO have hoisted a German
flag at sea, though this was denied by
the owners. She IL said to have Ger
man crew aboard and a cargo of rosin
consigned TO Sweden. Varying reports
purpose OF the captain of the Zealandia
to undertake commerce raiding caused
the British admiral in charge Of the
patrol of the Atlantic coast to dispatch
a vessel 10 determine the merchant
mans status and intentions. II is re-
ported that on searching the Zealandia
the British found no armament.
Since the vessel is American-owned,
with no change OF registry involved, the
Washington government desires 70

Quoted in neutral port. In the nat
ural course Mexico also would enter a
