sertion of Gus Bartlett, a drummer
who arrived here this morning.
Mr.. Bartlett said that yesterday
he was at the prison camp at Raj
ford, Bradford county, where he saw
and talked with Mendenhall, and
found him in vigorous health. He
was engaged, with several other
prisoners, in filling large silo with
chopped corn. Mendenhalls job
was tamping down the silage with a
heavy maui, which he handled as il
he were quite used to that kind Of
labor.
Mr.. Bartlett said that Mendenhall
wore shackles on his angles, and was
the only prisoner he saw there who
was thus manacled. Evidently the
prison authorities are not taking any
chances as to his getting away

heavy casualties and which caused
all Greek reservists in that locality
to be called to arms. A Paris news

have captured two important forts In
the Doiran sector. The heaviest
fighting is on the banks of the Stru-

Russian troops landed at Saloniki
three weeks ago but the censor de-

Russians announce gaining more
ground from the Turks in the Cau-

tinuing their efforts to force through
the Carpathians but are meeting
with effective resistance. All Paris
papers this morning dwell on the
possibility of Rumania throwing her
100000 troops in with the allies,

manian agitation for joining the al
lies has suddenly cooled down. This
dispatch refers to the mobilization
