After all the trials OF the great

Successes.

Paris, Aug. 6.-Thc Serbians have
won another success in operations
along the Macedonian front, according
to a Havas dispatch from Salonica to-
day, taking the village Of Pemli, near
Prosba, which had been occupied by
the Bulgarians.
German reports that the Bulgarinn'
had delivered successful attacks
against the Serbians south Of Mona
stir are unfoundec, the dispatch de-
clares.
About $4,000 Austrian prisoners,
taken by the Serbians and transported
from the Adriatic to the Island OF
Asinara, near Sardinia, have now been
taken TO France. The transfers in both
cases were effected by Italian vessels.
On Asinara Island barracks, en-
campments and huts have been built
and roads constructed. thoroughly
transforming the island. which is now
ready to receive prisoners up to the
number of $4,000.
The Austrian prisoners who had been
confined on the island received the
same rations as Italian soldiers. and
some Of them. on their departure, ex-
pressed satisfaction with the treatment
they had received.

Praises British Valor.

DralseS BrltlSn NdlOr.
The generalissimo paid tribute to the
manner in which all Of the Allies have
discharged their part in the ever-in-
creasing effort and said:
at is owing to the sacrifices Of
France, which, naturally, was ready
first, and consented to give herself to
the common cause, that the other ma
tions of the coalition have been able
to prepare themselves in a manner now
evident to the entire world. The Rus
slams have been able to organize their
resources and bring forward con-
stantly larger and larger number Of
men from their practically inexhausti-
BILE supplies, while at the same time
arming men and equipping them with
artillery and all the needed munitions,
without which war Of the present day
is impossible.
what Russia has achieved in the last
few weeks in Galicia shows not only
what Russia has done. but what she
can do.
England also has had time to show
her resources in men, and the valor Of
her troops on the Somme shows the
effort she is making.
THE Italians have had a more diff
cult and limited opportunity. but they
have done magnificent work, and the
reconstructed Serbian army is just be-
ginning to take anew its part in the
war.
THE Crash Is Coming
ION the other hand, il we look at
the enemy we know certainly that,
although they are still fighting IS
desperately as ever. they are drawing
on their last resources. Their plan in
the past has been constantly to trans
fer their reserves from one place 20
another. but with the united effort OF
the Allies they now find this impos-
sible. and il will become increasingly
hard in the future. We know this from
the information received from all
parts Of the front.
at is not for me to say how long the
struggle will last. but the question
matters little We feel and we know
that the crash is coming. We have
