 ODDS ON FRONT
Enormous Obstacles in the Way of Progress on Macedonia Front
 Encountered
BULGARIANS DEFEATED

PARIS. Oct. 9. The difficulties being met with by the Entente AL lies on the Macedonian front are de, scribed as enormous. The ostroyo Lage region is mountainous and ai- most wholly lacking in means Of communication. The hills, at some points. rise from a height of 1000 to 15.OO metres.
 The Bulgarian defenses include successive lines of deep trenches at the entrance of every defile pro- tected by system of barbed wire defenses, with numerous batteries perfectly concealed. Consequently 1t is necessary to take the positions on the flank.
 The Serbians are on the offensive on the right, while the French and Russians are pressing forward in the center and left. 1t is from this region that the Allies are moving on Nonastir. The Bulgarians are en- deayoring in every way to arrest them. but are reported to be failing at almost all points. An instance of ther failure is the effort to re- cover Florlna, for which purpose they made two desperate attacks.
