MONTENEGRO A FOE
True to Her Record. She Yielded
only by Inches TIL OverwheImed.

Montenegro declared war on Austria
on August {, 1914. and on Germany a
week later. In the early lays Of the war
Montenegrin operations In Bosnia and
Herzegovina with an army never esti-
mated at more than 5000 men were
eminently successful. On September 90
the troops OF Kin Nicholas which had
been working in conjunction with the
eerbians invested Sarajevo. Operating
IT. the other direction they seized Scutari
In Albania. Losses OF what were re-
ported to be a third Of It's entire force
were coincldent with still heavier losses
among the opposing Austrians.
From their furthest advances, how
ever, the Montenegr!n troops were slowly
driven back. until the Austrians took up
the siege OF Noun Lovcen. With the
great Teuton drive on Serbia the de-
pleted Mdntenegrin army. reinforced
later by the fleeing Serbs, was driven
further and further back and closed
within the iron ring about Cettinje. The
fall OF Mount Lovcen last week led TO the
capture OF the capital and the dispersal
OF the remnant Of the army.
II is not definitely known whether or
not Montenegro ever signed the agree.
mont between the Allies against a sepa-
rate peace. but II Is not supposed tina
rhe did.
Montenegro has been a kingdom since
August 20, 1910, when with the consent
Of the European Powers her present
ruler, King Nicholas, took the title after
ruling as Prince for Atty years. He has
been practically responsible for the mod
ern State. He established in 1855 q civil
code which mao excellent results. He was
In In both Balkan wars--those
OF 1876 and OF ~l9l2-when the principal
ity made the first declarations OF hos
tility.
AS a result Of the conflict in 1875
the state was recognized as independent.
and as a result of the second. ended by
the Treaty OF Bucharest. Montenegro ac-
quired n large slice of the Sanjak Of
Novi Bazaar. to the northwest, and Il con-
siderable addition TO the west and south,
OF the old province OF Scu,ari. almost
doubling the territory of the little king
dom. II is the integrity OF this territory
that Austria is rumored to be willing to
guarantee now.
In 1889, when the ancient Serbian ma
ton was overrun by the Turks at Kos
sovo. Montenegro offered an u%nconquer-
able bulwark to Turkish advance. In
vasion after Invasion was stopped when
IL reached the mountains about the patch
OF sea coast. When the M~ontenegrins
succumbed in l7l4 II was only TO rebel
again. With Russian support they en-
tered upon another two centuries Of war
fare, constantly harassing the Ottomans.
Until 1916 Montenegro was ruled by a
Prince OF the old Serbian line, The title
Of the ruler then became Prince Bishop.
The last Prince Bishop died In 1851, and
Danilio J., uncle OF the present King, re.
sumed the old secular title OF Prince.
The present area of Montenegro Is es-
umated at $500 square miles, and the
population before the wa at $4,000.
