ROME, Jan. 13.-Montenegr
is to be evacuated by Serbian troops,
II was officially announced today at
the Serbian legation.
The Serbian soldiers that retreat
ed into Montenegro when Serbia was
overrun by Austro- German and Bull
garian armies, are TO be sent 10 the
Greek island of Corfu. where a new
army will be organized and equipped.
Corfu has already been seized by
the French, despite protests of the
Greek government, according to ad-
vices from Athens. The French flag
has been hoisted over the villa on
Corfu owned by Emperor William.
Artillery is being mounted on the
grounds to repel Austrian warships.
Reports that the German and Bull
garian forces on the Greek border
have started an offensive with a
great bombardment with heavy guns
still lack confirmation. The impress
sion prevails here that the Anglo
French positions are so far removed
from the boundary that they could
not be reached with German and
Bulgarian guns unless the Teutonic
allies actually advanced into Greece.
