Serbians Say Bulgars Found
Their Verdun at OstrOva

London, Sept. s-10:56 P. MA Reu-
ter dispatch from Salonica says:
documents found on Bulgarian Off
GERS, both the slain and those made
prisoner. prove the overwhelming i'm
portance which the Bulgarian command
attached to the offensive in Macedonia.
and especially to the defeat of the Ser
bans occupying the line on the western
shore Of Lake Ostrova.
"A Serbian communicate points out
that far from achieving these aims. tho
Bulparians, after the sacrifice of nearly
10000 men, are too exhausted to make
the least offensive movement and are
digging themselves in. The Bulgarians
admit they found their Verdun at Os-
troya"

Immediate Improvement Not
Expected When Standards
Go Into Effect.
IF PLAN FAILS TO WORK,
MODIFICATION IS IN VIEW
System Is Adopted Merely as a
Measure of Average Service.
Basis of Complaint.

Immediate improvement in street car
service is not expected to follow the
going into effect November l Of the
new standards adopted by the public
utilities commission requiring on the
average of 100 seats per 80 passengers
during non-rush hours and seven
square feet of available floor area per
standing passenger during rush hours.
In the first place, the standards are
based on the average services being
supplied at the present on the city's
principal car lines. In the second
place. they are not intended to apply
to Individual cars. but rather to av-
erage service supplied during hour
periods in the case of non-rush tranic
and half-hour periods during rush
traffic.
To state the situation in another way
as explained by an official of the COM
mission, the standard is designed mere
ly as a measure of average service
Just as gas service in the District is
measured by heating power and elec-
trio service by voltage. so street car
service 10 to be measured in the future
by the standards just adopted.
Evening star., 1916-10-04
Basis Of Complaint.

A passenger who boards a car during
a non-rush hour and finds that the ratio
of 100 seats to so passengers has been
exceeded would not have cause for
complaint that in itself could be made
the basis of a fine being imposed on the
company. However, If this ratio should
be exceeded In the average service sup
piled during hour periods. the commits
sion would then regard the standard as
being violated and would take steps to
bring about improvement in the serv-
ice.
1t was stated today that, although
the standards have been formally
adopted. with provision for penalties
in the event Of their not being COM
piled with. that the rules after all are
of an experimental nature and will be
changed II they do not work out in
practice as they do in theory.
1t Is the first step in the direction of
standardizing service and changes, If
necessary. will be made from time to
time. until the standards are considered
to be accomplishing the results for
which they are designed.
