TEuToNS HALT SALONIkI ATTACK
Transport Difficulties Hamper Them
as Roads Are Bad.

Saloniki.-The belief is growing in
Entente circles that the Austro-Ger-
man attack on Saloniki is likely to
be delayed some time. The Germans
are finding that it will require consid-
cradle time to surmount all the OBJ
stacles facing them in this campaign.
Chief among these is the transport
OF troops, heavy artillery and support
along the bad roads and the railway
line, which is still considerably dam
aged in several parts. 1t is said that
the railway will not be completely
established for two months yet.

NORTHWESTERN ARMY FALLING BACK ON ALBANIA

London.-The east coast Of Kent
was raided twice by hostile aero
planes, one person being killed and
six persons being injured.
Of the first raid which occurred
early in the morning, the following
official account was issued:
1.-THE War Office announces that,
taking advantage of the bright moon
ligth, a hostile aeroplane visited the
east coast of Kent at l o'clock A. NJ
After dropping nine bombs in rapid
succession it made off to seaward.
mo naval or military damage was
done, but there was some damage to
private property. Incendiary bombs
caused fires, which were extinguished
by 2 a. NJ
THE following casualties occurred:
One man killed; two men, one woman
and three children slightly injured"
The second attack, this time by two
seaplanes, was made on the same
coast the same afternoon, but no casu-
alties were reported. All the raiders
escaped.
The War Office announcement con-
corning the second attack says:
Following on the aerial attack on
the east coast of Kent two hostile
seaplanes made a second attack upon
the same locality shortly after noon.
After coming under a heavy fire the
raiders disappeared, pursued by our
naval and military machines.
THE enemy effected no damage,
and no casualties have been report
ed"
Fifty thousand German troops have
arrived at Constantinople, according
to Saloniki dispatches. British CORE
spondents express the view that the
object of this army is not an expedi.
ton against Egypt, but to support the
authority OF the Turkish War Minis
ter, Enver Pasha.
According to an official report from
Amsterdam, Turkey had admitted that
one of her submarines was responsible
for the sinking of the liner Persia
in the Mediterranean last month, with
the loss of American lives and many
women and children.

When the Turks line broke under
the heavy Russian fire, the Sultan's
forces were pursued to the forts of
Erzerum, the Russians sabering or
taking prisoner more than 1900.
The Turks retreated in all direc-
tons to the protection of the forts,
abandoning magazines, guns and huge
quantities Of supplies in their fight.
COMMONS PASS coNscRlPTloN.
London.-LOud cheers greeted the
final passage OF the Military Service
bill through the Committee Of the
whole OF the House OF Commons.
At every stage the government by
its conciliatOry attitude made friends

a much smoother passage through the
House than had been expected.
Groups 2, 8, and 5 of recruits who's

MONTENEGRO REJECTS TERMS.

LOndon-A dramatic cnange IN the
war situation in the Balkans was an
nounced. Montenegro rejected the
conditions imposed by Austria, and
King Nicholas, it was reported, will
fight so long as man remains loyal.
The terms made by Vienna for Mon
tenegro's surrender were said in dis
patches from the Near Eastern CAPT
tails to be such as TO reduce Montene-
gro to virtually vassal state, and
to be impossible of acceptance.
Delayed cablegrams were received
giving both sides of the controversy
which has arisen as to the part Greece
is playing in the war.
King Constantine gave to a CORE
spondent his version of what he called
the 'unheard of high-handedness of
the recent action of the Allies toward
Greece" This dispatch was held up
by the censor until "the highest
French authority" could prepare re-
ply to it, and then both were put on
the cable simultaneously.
In effect, the Greek King complains
Of an attempt to force Greece into
the war on the side of the Allies. The
French reply is that the Allies acted
at every turn with the full cognizance
of the Greek Government, and in pur
suance to a secret agreement which
involved gains mot unconnected with
the foreign policy of Greece"
