LONDON, Oct. 18.-1t is intimated that the fleets of the Allies are pre- paring to force Greece to join them In stemming the tide of Teutonie forces which are smashing passage through to Constantinople. It is un- derstood that King Constantine has been given a limited time to cooper ate with the Allies operating from Salonika or the Greek coast cities will be bombarded. Greece has no navy and her coast Notifications, it is believed, would soon be wrecked by the big guns of the allied British and French warships. It is also under stood that King Constantine has been promised the territorial concessions in Asia Minor demanded as the price of Greece's neutrality if he actively engages in the war on the side of the Allies. Greece has an army of one- half million men mobilized and it is believed that should they join forces with the Allies that the Dardanelles campaign Kay not be lost and might have the effect of preventing Rumania from joining the Teutons.

with the support of congress. His measure will increase the regular army from one hundred thousand to two hundred and fifty thousand and will increase reserve force of four hundred thousand continentals, who will be required to serve period of two months training each year for three years, when they would be placed on the reserve list to be call- ed to the colors should war threaten. Secretary Garrison believes that in
 the course of few years if his plan lis favored by congress, the United States would build up a trained fight ing force which would have no supe- rior in the world. His plan will also serve in helping to keep the ranks of the regular army up to standard
 as many of the continenatals would prefer to enlist in the regular army than to be placed on the reserve list. The government would also have the
 advantage of securing officers who
 had displayed ability in training the

BRITISH A|RMEN
 ARE CRITICIZED
Have Made Scores of Raids
 .r.t VI .sIi l. " ra... Suffered Little Loss.

LONDON, Oct. 1S.-More than fifty persons, are known to have been killed as 6 result of the recent raid by the German Zeppelins and the commander of the British aerial fleet is being 'unmercifulfy criticised for the failure of the British airmen in defending the city from the Zeppe- lins.
 It is reported that the raid, which occurred last Wednesday night, re- suited in property damages estimated at $5,OOO,O00 as the bombs caused scores of fire to break out in the ruins of the buildings destroyed by the explosions.
 Two hundred persons are in hos pitfalls suffering from injuries sus- tained during the raid, thirty of whom are women or children. It is announced that of the dead thirteen were soldiers and the remainder civ ilians.
 The press of London charges gross against the, British air fleet and states that millions of dol. lars has been expended every month during the past year and that al though Zeppelins have made dozens of raids on English cities, but one German machine has" been brought down. The Manchester Guardian, one of the leading English newspa- pers, ask: "Are we a decadent na- tion, that we cannot meet the enemy in the air as we have on the sea by capturing their submarines?"

SEATTLE, Oct. 1s.-Mrs. Bige- low, who barricaded herself in her home here and threatened to shoot deputies who attempted to serve a writ of ejectment, will have another year in which to solve her financial troubles. The publicity given the case caused a prominent attorney to investigate the mortgage on Mrs. Bigelow's property and he discovered that under the terms of the mort gage Mrs. Bfgelow was to be per- mitted to live in the house for one year after the mortgage was due. The writ of execution has been dismissed and the deputies are wondering what would have happened to them if they had attempted to force their way into the house.

PETROGRAD, Oct. 18.-State war has been declared in Moscow which threatens to force the withdrawal of the Russian forces from the south eGn war zone to prevent the empire from being disrupted by internal dis sansion. Troops are being rushed to Moscow from Petrograd to quell the Eioting there, which has assumed the l3oportions of rebellion. ..p...
 1t is reported that several compa- nias of recruits of the new army Rus sia is concentrating have broken from the control of their officers. It Is known that trouble has been brew Ing for some time as recruits were forced into the army by the recruit ing officers, against their will. The frst lbreaks were incipient and when the leaders were arrested they were ordered shot by firing squads se- lected from among their own con- panions. The firing squads are re- ported to have turned their guns on the officers killing them and taking possession of the barracks.

v|LLA|TEs PLATED OVER EMBARGO
President Wilson's Order is Impar- tial and Is Puzzling Officers
 Along the Border.

MORALES, Oct. 18.-An order has been received here lifting the em- bargo placed upon shipments of mu- nitions of war to Mexico from the United States, and has caused great elation among the followers of Gen. Villa. It is believed here some hitch has occurred in the recognition pro- ceedings of Gen. Carranza, as the or der lifting the embargo is general and impartial. Great stores of rifles and cartridges which were destined for Villas armies and were stopped at the border have been rushed across the line into Mexico, fearing that the order would be rescinded.
 Officers of the militia are puzzled over the lifting of the embargo and believe that General Carranze has succeeded in convincing the president that his armies are in control of the situation and that General Villas forces now consist of few scattered bands of outlaws who feared to ac- cept amnesty if made answerable for their crimes.

LONDON Oct. 18.--The directors of the recruiting commission of the British empire have issued an an- nouneement that three million more men must be secured for training for the new armies which Britain will put in the field next spring Recruits in A44gland has been stimulated by the recent air raids of the German Zep- pelins and recruiting officers report that several thousand are enlistjne daily but not sufficient to reach the numbers demanded by Lord Kitch- ener. -.'
 It is believed that conscription will have to be resorted to even with the threatened Hanger oe uprisings among Socialists and work,nen who have de- clared against a continuance of the war. Enlistr ents in Scotland have been heavy, and that nation has ss- tablished the highest percentage population considered, of any part ot the empire.
 The failure of the British diplo' mats to keep the Balkan states neu. tral has increased the ''Teutonit strength by nearly two million trained veterans of the Balkan wars and will force the Allies to place ar equal number of new troops in the field.

LONDON, Oct. 1S.-The Austra- Han newspapers have bitterly de- nounced the plan of the Allies to abandon the Gallipoli campaign ow- ing to the reversal of the Balkan sit uation. They assert that the Austra- : Hans, who volunteered their services to fight for the mother country will have sacrificed themselves to demon strate to the world the gross incom- petence of the British foreign office who must have known at the begin ming of the campaign that the Allies would be unable to effect the capture of the Dardanelles and Constantine pie should the Balkans declare in favor of the Teutons.
 The criticisms of the entire cam- paign are very severe as the Austra- Han and New Zealand troops have suffered tremendous losses in the Gallipoli campaign and it is feared that the colonies will refuse to con tinue to send more troops if the cam paign is abandoned. ~ # '.1
 The British foreign office is charg- ed with stupidity in failing to meet the demands of the Balkan States last spring when they. were all favorably inclined to side with the Allies pro vided their demands for territorial concessions were granted. As early as last April the foregn office told the British House of Commons that Bull garia's neutrality could be purchased by the promise of giving her Thrace and Macedonia, and certain provinces

 Greece had promised active partic- ipation in the war on the side of the Allies if promised territorial conces- sion in Asia Minor, which would in clude the city of Smyrna and an area of the country behind it.
