given to DEVELOPMENTS in connection
with Greece. The Allies, for their
part, have made a new move in max
ing a landing on the Karaburun
Peninsula, near the head of the Gulf
of Saloniki, occupying the Greek fort
there. The move seems to have been
dictated by strategic reasons, it being
considered undesirable by the entente
forces to have the position in other
hands than their own.
AS to Greece herself. a dispatch
from Teutonic sources carries the
intimation that King Constantine and
his close advisers fear she may be
dragged into the war eventually
through the influence of former
premier Nenizelos. with the Greek
people, the idea of revolutionary
movement of a grave character not
being absent from the minds of the
ruler and his political and military
aids.
Contemplate Advance
Coincidentally there are revived re-
ports that a speedy advance on
Saloniki is contemplated by the Teu-
tonic allies and that Turkish forces,
notably the Gallipoli army, are NOV
ing to positions where they will be
ready to participate in the attack.
AltnOuSn II is reported from AtnenS
that the Italians have determined to
abandon DuraZZo on the Albanian
coast. owing to the difficulties present
ed to its defense against the Aus
trians. there are reports from South
ern Albania more favorable to the
allies. Rome has advices that Essad
Pasha. leader of Albanian troops faV-
orable to the entente has effected a
junction with the Italian forces
Positions at Avolana and in other
sections of Southern Albania are be-
ing fortified in the expectation that
the measures taken will be effective
in checking the Austrians.
