TRIP TO FRONT ENDS
WITHNEWS RUSTLERS
AGAIN IN SALONIKA

We heard no more artillery fire
around Strumnitza. The cannon had
been dragged down from the nearby
hills and were being loaded on flat cars,
while we had breakfast in the railroad
station.
1t was noon when our military guide
led us to a box car in a freight train
and told us to climb in.
We were starting back to the Greek
border. Not single venturesome news
paper man begged to remain, In our
train were box cars loaded with fugi-
tive Serbian soldier !, with Serbian civ
ilans who were carving with them
their household effects that they had
been able to transport by hand; with
French soldiers whose feet were wrap
ped in heavy sackings, victims of frost
bite. There were also flat cars carrying
cannon, hay and wood, and ears with
high walls above which appeared the
heads of tightly packed horses.
A Dramatic Retreat.
We were beating it, with the French,
from Serbia in q retreat that will per
haps be considered one of the most dra-
matte events in the history of the war.
The two engines snorted for min
ute or two and finally got the long
string of cars under way. We rolled
slowly over the Vardar bridge-which
was blown up two days later-and saw,
amid the girders, the ends of the long
fuses which were to be lighted at tho
last possible moment.

UNITED Press staff correspondent
Salonika, Dec. 1l.--Where the huge
French camp had been the night before
all was bare before morning. Smoking
cinders, here and there, showed where
the o'clock coffee had been made, but
the removal Of the camp had begun at
'clock in the morning, and by the
time the newspaper men arose from
their cots in the hospital tent and went
outdoors to wash their faces in pals of
cold water, the French soldiers were
several miles down the valley road their
wagons loaded with camp equipment.
There were explosions across the riv'

along the face Of the river embank-

"But three days ago General Sarrail
said we were to be taken to Krivolak. "
Krivolak was up the Vardar valley
only 10 miles and the railroad on which
we were encamped led directly to it.
"But three days ago isn't today"
said the officer. "See all these soldiers
marching along the railroad. Well,
they've come from Krivolak, ] m not
supposed to tell you, but the fact is
we re evacuating Krivolak and the Bul,

Later developments showed that his
guess was q good one. At the very
time we were talking of Krivolak, the
Bulgarian cavalry was marching into
the place.

The jury returned verdict of not
guilty in the case of the State against
Jessie Austin, charged with conversion
of funds, late Saturday evening. This
case was brought at the instigation of
Kate Couper, who claimed that the late
John Beach, father of Mrs. Austin, left
Mrs. Couper 5000 by the terms of his
will. 1t appeared, however, that in the
presence Of witnesses Mr.. Beach later
changed his will so as to exclude Mrs.
Couper from the legacy. Mr.. Couper
charged that Mrs. Austin converted the
5000 to her own use and the defendant
was brought from Arizona to stand trial
on the charge. Carson & Brown appear
ed for Mrs. Austin.

Gators in the east have mad their eyes
on Oregon's advanced methods of

port from Miss Cornelia Marvin, state
