detachment from the Greek garri-
son at Fort Rupel fired on the Bull

The Greeks were incensed, according
to Saloniki dispatches today, because
the Bulgars entered the fort before
the time they had stipulated for its
evacuation expired. The Bulgars re-
turned the fire, the Greeks withdraw
ing without serious casualties on either
side.

warned border commanders to take
every precaution to prevent serious
encounters.
Six Miles Into Greek Soil.
Only 5000 Bulgarians took part in the
advance into Greek territory. according
to the best available information here.
1t IS the general belief here that the
Bulgarians occupied Forts Rupel. Drago-
tina and Spatovo solely as a defensive
measure to guard against allied attack.
The positions lie six miles inside the
frontier and form part Of a chain of
Gefences erected by the Greeks against
possible Bulgarian. invasion. The Of
fetal statement from the Bulgarian war
office, confirming the invasion is silent
as to its purpose.
The Bulgars asserted that they had
the permission of the Greek government
for their act.
The Greek war party. led by former
Premier Venizelos is using the Bulgarian
Invasion to the best advantage in re-
newing. the demand that Greece enter the
war on the side Of the allies. The Yenize-
list organs declare that the Bulgars, con-
centrating near Xanthi, are planning an
advance against the Greek port of Kaval-
la, long coveted by the Bulgars. 1t is
believed here. however, that King Con-
stantine, unwilling to plunge his coun-
try into war, will confine action to a
diplomatic protest against the invasion.
