ALLIES EXPECT
 EARLY SUCCESS
 AT DARDANfLLES
London Optimistic Over Successes of Allies and
 Pessimism of Turks.

London, Aug. 24.-The greatest op- timism prevails here regarding the situation in the near east.
 Reports of successes by the Franco British troops in Gallipoli indicate that the allies will have attained their object in the Dardanelles within a few weeks, an opinion that is sustain ed even in Turkish circles, according to reports in Sofia, emanating from Constantinople.
 With the necessity for assistance from tho Balkan states in the Darda- nelles field eliminated by the ap- preaching consummation of the allies program there, attention is being dl= rected toward more ambitious plans in which the Balkan states may be able to lend effective aid, by the prosecution of an energetic campaign against Austria.

GREECE UNLIKELY ID ENTER WAR 0N
 SIDE OF ALLIES

Athens, Aug. 24.-Bulgarja is in quiring in diplomatic circles regard ing the possibility of an entente with Greece.
 From the tone of the Venizelist press it may be inferred that Premier Venzelos, regarding that the circum- stances are no longer the same as they were in February, when the plan to participate in the Dardanelles op- erations was for political rather than military purposes, is now disposed to follow policy of benevolent neutral ity toward the entente powers.
 Premier Venizelos, in view of the seriousness of the situation, will avoid publishing the program of the government, though he may proceed to certain declarations if provoked by the opposition when. the chamber meets on Thursday.
