ss ,s8 Paris, Nov. 17.-"Our expedition In
stage" telegraphs the correspondent
at Saloniki, Greece, of the Journal, un-,
der date of Sunday. He adds:
Notwithstanding appeals by com.
petent personalities our reinforce
ments are not anything like the num-
Der required. Our enemies have de-
cided to nip in the bud at any cost our
offensive in the east and are prepared
to resort to any means to obtain the
necessary assistance. hope that this
formula is well understood.
Serbian resistance is weakening
daily. The defenders of Babuna pass
will soon be surrounded and the road
to Prelep and Monastir will then be
thrown wide open to the Bulgarians.
"1he hosts Of Austro-G Germans hur.
rying southwark are sending detach-
ments ahead by forced marches on all
available routes
so not expect to find a second Bel
GUM. Greece will not hesitate to per-
NIT passage by the enemy through her
territory as she now permits ours. We
must defend ourselves alone and un-
aided against the triple attack OF the
Germans, Bulgarians and Turks. The
enemy's plan is being carried out and
may be realized rapidly. The Ger
man fleet of submarines in the Medi-
terranean has just been Quintupled.
II advance nothing whereof am
not absolutely sure. We must be pre-
pared for any news, even the most un
expected and even that which seems
the craziest. We must have reinforce
ments in large numbers at once or re-
embark while there is yet time"
OFFICIAL LEAVE MoNAsTlR.
Paris, Nov. II. A dispatch from
Saloniki, Greece, filed yesterday, to the
Havas News agency says:
Reliable news indicates the Ser.
bians are defending Babuna pass with
only 1000 infantry. The Bulgarians
however, have not yet succeeded in
dislodging them.
"The families OF the consuls Of the
different powers and the Serbian auth
critics have arrived here (Saloniki)
from Monastir, where great anxiety is
being manifested again. It is said
British reinforcements are about to
start for Monastir.
"Semi-of1icial reports having a Ser
bfan source are that the Serbians arr
weakening on the Katchanik front"

INVEN7S MACHINE ID
 HELP MAKE SHRAPNEL
c. M. Spencer, Edison of Connecticut in 2Oth
 Century Role.

A six-spindle automatic screw ma chine which makes screws for shells and shrapnel and can be utilized for sixteen and eighteen pounders will be manufactured by the New Britain Ma chine company of this city. The ma chine, which may play an important factor in the present European con- fiict, has been invented by Christopher Minor Spencer, aged eighty-one years. of Hartford. 1. who is employed as an expert nlacp cpinist by the local concern.
 MT. Spencer has been experimenting with the machine for a long period and his invention is now complete. The screws are made automatically. The screws can be made from any kind of rod and only requires a minimum amount of. the operators s time.
 M Circulars have been prepared by the Machine company which set forth the advantage of the machine. The circular, however, makes no mention that the screws can be utilized for shrapnel or shells. MT. Spencer told Herald reporter this afternoon that since the circular has been issued to has been working diligently on his in- vention and he has now perfected it so that screws can be made for the shrap- . nel and shells.

EIGHT HOUR DAY FOR
 PARK CITY MACHINISTS
Demands To Be Made Latter Part of Week, Says
 Bowen.

Bridgeport July 15.-Demands for an eight hour day for nlachinists throughout the city, to be made The latter part of the week, according to statement by J. J. Bowen, Dus- mess agent for the machinists organ ization here, added another phase to day to the already complicated m Nj dustrial situation growing out of the trouble over the millwrights' unioli affiliations at the plant of the Reni- ngton Arms company. If this plan is carried out, it was stated. it VIII involve close, to 10000 men.
 x Bowen declared in his, statement that We intend to call out the latter part of the week all the nnachinists and make a demand for eight hour work throughout the city," The strike would in all probability begin with the Remington Arms company, twenty other shops in the city doing the same kind of work. We are going to bring out these shops and secure eight hours in all the factor ies.'' He declared also that the strike would enforce the demands of the "millWrights, machinists, hoist ing engineers and any other locals that may join in the strike
 There were no additions to tho ranks of the strikers today, but there were indication that unless the 25 hoisting engineers reached an agreement with the Stewart Construc- ton company, which is engaged OH new buildings of the arms company, they would quit work.
 The expected conference between Major w. w. Penfield of the arms company and the committee of the rnillwrights did not take place this morning as expected, Major Penfeld declining to confer with them on the ground that the company had no dis pute with the men. He referred them to Manager G. c. Greist of the Stewart Company with whom they had a talk during the morning. No conclusion was reached and they were to meet with him again late today
 No action was taken by the hcd carriers union today, determination of their course awaiting the arrival of Vincent De Falco, the national or ganizer
 No disorder was reported today
 In view of a disturbance, last night when laborer was beaten by one of the guards because he stepped over the so-called dead line'' where the construction work is in progress, extra precautions have been taken by ths company to prevent trouble.
 Early today the millwrights sta- toned pickets near the company. buildings.

Berlin, July IS, by Wireless to Say vile, N. Y.-Among the news items prepared by the Overseas News Agency today for transmission abroad by wireless telegraphy was the follow ing:
 .The Austro- Hungarian government has published a red book dealing with the preparedness of Italy for war. 1t shows that the Italian government re- ceived incorrect information from its diplomats, who underestimated the preparedness of Austria. The docu- ments have to do with the years 1909 until 1911 and prove that the alleged violation of the triple alliance was ap- proved by Italy.

IT. S. TO SEND NOTE
 TO GREAT BRITAIN
Document Will Protest interference
 With Cargoes of American Meat tsi Packers and Neutral Trade.

4Washington, July culties of American meat packers with Great Britain over the detention of their ca rgoes to neutral countries will be taken up by the state department in note to the British government, it was said today. t
 The packers who have appealed to the Washington government to demand that Great Britain stop in- terfering with their cargoes consigned to neutral ports and settle for $l4,- O0O,OOO worth of their products now held up in prize courts, continued their conferences with state depart ment officials today. They charge the British government with the destruc- ton of commerce in food products be- tween. the United States and other countries.
 In a statement outlining their case as submitted to the department the packers assert that the British government purpose1y '. delays settle- ment of their claims for seized car goes and that they are not inclined to reopen trade with neutral countries unless they can be assured of delivery of their ships to ports designated. The American note to Great Britain which it was said would be sent i'm 7 mediately, will deal specifically with the complaint of the packers. The general subject of interference with neutral trade under the British order in council will form the subject of an- other communication to Great Britain.

STATE TO APPEAL IF
 HENDRICk FREES THAW Justice Will Probably Ren-
 der His Decision To- morrow Morning.

New York, July 15.--wnile awaiting the decision of Supreme Court Jus tice Hendrick on the question of Harry l.. Thaw's sanity, Thaw's counsel had ! prepared for submission to court to- day a formal order 1vacating the original commitment under which 1 he was first sent to Matteawan asy- lum. Justice Hendrick had promised
 tu receive application for such an
 order today, but his decision on the question of freeing Thaw ga sane is not expected until tomorrow. The jury in this case was acting only in an advisory capacity, anu it's finding does Lot bind the court ,
 Tn the event of a decision to dis charge Thaw. counsel for the state were ready to give notice of an appeal and to ask that Thaw De held in bail pending the result of such appeal. Tkaw spent the night in Ludlow street jail.
 The prospect of seeing Thaw at- tracted a large crowd to the court house today Thaw was brought from the Ludlow street jail and taken to the court room. He remained there some time and then started for the sheriff's office. About the same time Justice Hendrick started from his chambers across the street to formally adjourn the court until tomorrow morning. Justice Hendrick met Thaw in the midle of the street surrounded by large crowd and it was with con siderable difficulty that the justice managed to reach the court house.
 Court adjourned, Justice Hendrick returned to his chambers and dis cussed with the attorneys for both sides the form his order shall take. The question of bail also was for mally discussed it was said, at the conference. E
 After the conference Justice Hem drick announced that there would be no decision today and that he would probably render one at the reopening of court at II o'clock tomorrow morn ing.
 "If," Justice Hendrick said, "I de- eide to return Thaw to Matteawan he | may appeal. and will be entitled to bail ! pending a decision. If I should de- eide to set him free, the state will ap- i peal and may demand that he furnish | bail until such time as the case is final ly decided. Admitted to bail Thaw | will be free to go anywhere he likes. His bail will assure the state that he ! will be produced when asked for"

JOINT MEETING HELD
 IN NEW YORK STRIKE
Twelve Men Thrashing Out Differ- ences Between Garment Work
 CTS and Their Employers.

New York, July 15.--Whether the 10000 garment workers still at work in the ships and factories of New York city would join the 21, GOO all ready on strike was likely to be de- termined by meeting of twelve men which began this forenoon and was expected to last all day.
 The grievances of 50,OO0 women employed in the garment making in dustry also came before the may or s council of conciliation, which held it's second buoiness meeting today.
 Elm ployers and employees were rep. resented by six men each in the joint meeting. The representatives were appointed at a conference this forenoon between employers and em- ployes at the New York Chamber of Commerce. pr. J. J. Magnes, through whose efforts the conference was ar- raigned, was selected as chairman. There was a hopeful feeling among the conferees that the joint meeting would result in averting a, general strike.
 Sidney Hillman, president of the Ama1gamated Clothing Workers, said that his organization has been anx- ious to reach fair understanding ana to dVOlu d SIcdCe lduOi sSLTuSSlS He added that if necessary the union could call out SO,000 clothing work CTS in this city to join the strike. Workers on mems pants, knee pants and vests already are on strike. The labor leaders announced that 10000 coat makers had adopted resolutions approving the strike, but would not quit work until after the conference of committees today.
 Officers of the Amalgamated Cloth ing Workers said they had received promises from the union leaders in Chicago, Newark. N. J., and else where that a national strike would be called if the contracts held up by the strike here were given cut in other states.
