become necessary The ministers are
demanding that Greece squarely de-

The entente allies declare they
have claim on Greece, because OF

Should King Constantine overrule the

SERBIANS FALLING
BACK IN MOUNTAINS
THEIR RESISTANCE HAS BEEN
so STRONG BULGARlANS HAD
TO CALL FOR ASSISTANCE.

London.-The Servians are falling
back from mountain range to noun
tain range before the Austro-Germans,
whose official reports enumerate the
capture of a thousand or more pris-
oners daily, few guns and quantities
of stores. The Servians, however are
inflicting considerable loss on their
pursuers.
Along the eastern front the Serv-
ians appear to be holding their own
against the Bulgarians and are max
ing a stand on the western bank Of
the Morava River. Their resistance
has been so stubborn the Bulgarians
have had to call for assistance from
the Austro-German artillery in their
effort to drive the defenders out of
Katchanik Pass. Thus far they have
been unsuccessful.
The British and French troops,
which are receiving re-enforcements,
are meeting with some success, and
besides repulsing Bulgarian attacks
have undertaken small offensives with
good results.
For the moment the political situa-
tion is graver than the military. The
central powers again have protested
to Greece against the landing of al,
lied troops at Saloniki King Con,
stantine is reported to have replied
that as SalOniki is an open port there
has been no infringement of Greek
rights in the landing and that Greece
will remain neutral until one of the
belligerents has transgressed against
those rights. France and Italy, who
has joined ner allies by sending
warship to Saloniki, are particularly
anxious as to the attitude of Greece.
The Russians have repelled def

Riga and Dvinsk and along the
Dvina River and have taken the Of
fensive, but apparently, owing to the
state of the ground have made only
slow progress in the marsh region

Along the Styr River in the south,
the Austro-Germans, by counter
stroke, have pierced the Russian lines
and captured 1,5O0 prisoners, accord,

about all that can be expected on the
eastern front while the soft weather
continues.
On the western front there have

WILL INVESTIGATE
GORICAR'S CHARGES
INVOLVES GERMAN AMBASSADOR
COUNT Won BERNSTORFF IN
MUNITIONS PLOT.

Washington.-The United States
Department of Justice is investigating
charges, preferred by DR.. Joseph Cor
icar, former Austro-Hungarian consul
at San Francisco, that Count Johann
Won Bernstorff, German ambassador 10
the United States, and Consul General
Won Nuber of Austria have been in
vestigating strikes of workers at
American factories manufacturing mu.
nitions of war for the entente allies.
DR.. Goricar declares that Won Berns-
torff and Won Nuber directed the Aus
trian consult at Cleveland, st. Louis,
Pittsburgh, st. Paul, Philadelphia and
Chicago to try to cause walkouts of
foreign workmen at munitions facto,
ries.
DR.. Goricar says he resigned after
15 years of service because he declined
to perform the work of a spy. He
charges that while he was consul at
San Francisco, Macmillan Burstyn,
Austrian naval attache at Washington,
ordered him to secure plans of the for
tifcations of San Francisco harbor and
along the Pacific coast and especially
to get details of the work at the Brem-
erton navy yard. When he refused
Goricar said, he was transferred to
Berlin, and after five months there
was ordered to Vienna. He feared to
do so, he said, and fed to Rome, from
where he rendered his resignation.
The Austrian embassy issued a
statement denying DR.. Goricar's state
ments and declaring that an attempt
will be made to prosecute him, because
he left his post on leave of absence
and failed to return.
Dr. Gcricar first came to the United
States in 1909, and was consul at Pitts
burgh, Denver and San Francisco. He
was stationed at the latter city three
years.
The Austrian embassy's statement
said it had been learned that DR., Gori-
car was secretly in close relations with
Russian and Serbian agents. 1t
charges that Dr. Goricar agreed to
return to the United States and use
his information to stir up German and
Austrian immigrants against their ma

The statement says it is believed
that DR.. Goricar aided in inducing

Austro-Hungary to join the Serbian
and Russian armies, and adds that
all these, il captured, will be executed

j. p. Dunlop, OF the United States
Geological Survey OF Washington, ID.
C., who has been gathering statistics
on zinc ore production in the various
camps in the field, states that the
north Arkansas field will show gain
in production over last year OF 400
per cent, and would make the largest
gain in production this year over last
year of any zinc field in the Central
states. Mr.. Dunlop was accompanied
over the field by Reuben Willet of Yell
vile, who buys the bulk of the ore
produced in the field.
Mr.. Dunlop has been coming into
the field annually for many years and
has always predicted a big develop
ment for ii. While he was greatly
gratified by the increased activity that
marks every camp, he stated that he
was not surprised, as the ore bodies
here warranted development.
"One of the greatest factors you
have in your favor down here over
some districts is the cheap cost of
prospecting and mining" said Mr..
Dunlop. Owing to the fact that
your upper ore-bearing stratas out
crop on the hillsides you do not have
to do expensive drilling to locate them,
but can find them by pick and shovel
prospecting, and in many instances
without even that, the ore showing in
the ledges that have been left on the
brim by the eroding dirt Tunnel min
ing is cheaper than sinking deep
shafts. Most of these mines are dry
also, which eliminates pumping, which
is another expense
