Bulgarians and Teutons Proving too Many for
Allies in the Balkans
GREEK GOVERNMENT FINDS ITS FEET ON UNCERTAIN GROUNDTONS CONTINUE TO
DISCUSS PEACE TERMS
Associated PreuO

London, Dec. 14.-Not only have
the Anglo French armies been driven
out of Serbia, as the Germans report
ed yesterday, but previously their
front was broken through and the
French forces cut off from the Brit
ish, according to an official Sofia
statement. A Bulgarian report says
the retreating troops suffered heavy
losses. At one point French bat
talon was routed and the commander
captured.
The Germans have made protests
to the Greek government against
further concessions to the Allies in
Greece, Athens advices say. Germany
is reported to have already inquired
whether Greek neutrality was COM
promised by the facilities accorded
the Allies.

REASONS ARE PLENTIFUL

The expedition started too late. The
force at the immediate disposal of
the Allies was inadequate for the
task allotted, while the Typographical
conditions virtually necessitates the
creation of new means of transpor-
tation for supplies. The failure of
Greece to respond to the expectations
Of the Allies. The fact that the Ser
bians retreated westward into Mon
tenegro instead of southwark toward
Saloniki, where they could have unit
ed with the Allies.
SUCCESSFUL RETREAT TO SA-
LONIKI
The British and French troops have
successfully carried out their retire
ment from Serbia, and by an arrange
ment with the Greek government they
have clear road left for them to fall
back on Saloniki.
The German official report claims
that approximately two English divis-
ions were annihilated during the re-
tirement but this is considered here
to be an exaggeration. Athens and
Saloniki accounts say the retreat was
carried out in an orderly manner
without heavy loses. BY the destruc-
tion of the railway bridges and roads
and stubborn rear guard actions the
Bulgarians were kept at a fairly safe
distance. In one rear guard action
two companies of the Inniskillen reg
iment sacrificed themselves to save
their comrades.
The question now arises as to
whether the Bulgarians and Teutons
intend to follow the British anG
French into Greece and what action
the Greek government would take
should they do so. The impression
gained from Athens dispatches is that
neither the Bulgarians nor Turks, who
are also reported near the frontier
will be welcome in Greece, therefor
it has been decided tn task of follow.
