PROMISE BY GERMANY BROKEN
Bulgaria Claims kavaIa, One City At.

Award of War With Turkey

London, Aug. 25.-The Balkan situ-
alton again looms large on the horizon
of the world war with the official an
nouncement in Paris that the Bulgar-
ians have attacked rama and the
seaport of Kavala, both garrisoned
by Greek troops.
This announcement is confrmatory
OF press dispatches from Greece dur
ing the last few days in which it was
stated that fighting was in progress
between the Greeks and Bulgarians.
The reported attack on Kayala threat
ems to make the situation between
Greece and the central powers acute.
Ever since the first Balkan war Sofia
has claimed that Kavala was one of
its rightful fruits OF victory and its
concession to Greece has been the
source of much i'll feeling.
Apparently, from the French state
ment, the allied troops do not plan
an advance on the right wing as Brit
| ish cavalry detachments are reported
to have destroyed bridges over the
Angista river. On the left wing Paris
reports "appreciable" progress for the
Serbians and the capture OF several
hundred prisoners. In the center
where the main effort Of the allies is
expected, heavy artillery action is taxi
ing place.
| Fighting between Bulgarians anC
Greeks principally at Seres has beer
reported in dispatches from Greece
for several days. Yesterdays Frenct
statement is. however, the first oilici
al confirmation that the soldiers o
the two nations have clashed.
On August 22 1t was announced il
Athens that the German and Bulgar
ian governments had given written as
surances to Greece that their troops
would not enter Kayala, Drama o
Seres.
The advance of the Bulgarians ha
caused profound sensation il
Greece. according to press dispatche
which stated that the advance ha,
been used by the Venizelist leaders a
| a weapon to attack the government
and that volunteers were rushing t
the front to aid the commander a

TURKS IN ARMENIA

DUKE NICHOLAS
Forced to EvaCuate MuSh and Open
Way Into Asia Minor
RUSSIANS ASSUME OFFENSIVE
Attempt to Encircle Cars Caucasus
Army Has Apparently Resulted
in Failure.

Petrograd, Aug. %, via London
The Turkish attempt to encircle the
left flank OF the Russian Caucasus
army appears to have received a
crushing blow from the troops OF
Grand Duke Nicholas in the region of
Lake Van. The Turkish scheme of
encircling the left flank and regaining
Erzerum thus multiplying all the sue
cesses OF the grand duke in Turkish
Armenia appeared to be well on its
way to a successful outcome, but the
Russian re-occupation of Mush and
the re-establishment of their positions
west of Lake Van apparently has put
definite quietus to the ambition of
the Turks. The initiative now ap-
pears again to be with the Russians.

march toward Asia Minor

sian army opposing them began the
northeastern drive in the direction OF
| ErZeruni.
The Turks appeared early in August
to be in a fair way toward accomplish
ing the task
The turning point came soon after
the Turkish occupation of Mush wher
the Russian lines stiffened suddenly
The battle continued uninterrupted,
until yesterday when the Turkisl
forces, despite their reported superi
ority in numbers fell back under tht
Russian assault conducted from tn,
regions OF Malasguerd and Gniskal;
and left Mush again in Russian hands
The expedition, which the Turks
sent out from Riyandouza toward Per

where two regiments were captured
by the Russians, according to war OF

FRENCH SOLDIERS MUST SHAVE
Order to Relieve Army of 12o Tons of
Hair.

Paris, Aug. 26.-The beard of the
French soldier has been doomed in an
army order which directs that the
men at the front must shave all ex-
cept mustaches. The order has been
the signal for the outburst of hum
orous and ironic discussion in the
trench newspapers, to which some OF
the most famous French artists, PHI
osophers and literary men, have con.
tributed.
Gen. Pierre Cherfls. reasoning tech,
nically, excuses the measure because
the beard of a trooper weighs on an
average of sixty CRANES. With
100000 men at the front this brings
the aggregate weight to 12O tons. II
was natural that the staff should
think of relieving the army of this con
siderable and useless weight. 1t was
reasonable in creating heavy material
to make in compensation light infan
try"

In 1909 and 1910 and even as late as

As to the treatment OF the disease
Prot Meter adds:
Beginning In 1910 we employed In
iections OF serum derived from sub
jeCts who had been previously af

were excellent wherever the subjcc

Precauton Urged Upon Students i
infected Districts.

Williams college authorities have
decided that there is no reason why
the college should not open September
q, as scheduled. 1t is felt, however,
that the assembling of so many stud.
ents, many of whom come from infect
ed districts, might bring infantlle
parlysis to Williamstown and so no,
tice has been sent to all students re
questing those who come from infec
ed areas to spend two weeks away
from those places before going to
Williamstown. All students after
they arrive are cautioned to avoid all
risks, such as going to neighboring
towns where the disease exists, and
all unnecessary travel until danger Is
past.

will receive 10 cents mile.
Representative Chalmers of Rutland
contendea mat it was not fair to the
people for the members to go home
with 20 rents a mile mileage when the
| actual cost was about six cents
mile. Redfeld Proctor of Proctor led
the discussion on the mileage quest
ion by saying that except in one or
two cases 10-cent mileage would be
nearer fair than 20 cents.
Mr.. Stone of Vergennes said that 20
cents a mile was all right when the
session lasted two or three months
and entailed several trips home.
