London.-A dispatch received in
London by the Exchange Telegraph
Company from Athens said:
1T is confirmed in Entente circles
! that Bulgaria has made overtures for
separate peace TO the Entente Pow
! ers"
The British military writer's say 1t
Ia not unlikely that the Athens report
has basis in fact, as Bulgarian leaders
have been quoted as saying that the
object of Sofia In entering the war
was accomplished when Serbia was
crushed
When Bulgaria declared war on DC.
tober Ia last il was announced that
she had no quarrel with the Entente
Powers, except Serbia. The chief dis
pute was over the Macedonian terri
tory occupied by Serbia and Greece
after the second Balkan war in which
Bulgaria asserted she was robbed Of
her victory over the Turks in the first
Balkan struggle.
The plan of the Germans TO have
Bulgaria take the lead in an attack
on Saloniki is thought to have brought
the decision to make a separate peace
if possible.
The Germans are pressing an often.
sive movement at several points on
the western front. and announced the
capture of section Of trenches in
Champagne 700 yards long.
The French admit the Kaiser's
troops have gained a footing in some
Of their advanced positions near the

The Germans have been reinforcing
their armies ever since the activity
in the western arena was renewed
about two weeks ago. and some OF
the estimates Of the additional troops
have been placed as high as 100000
men OF all arms.

FIERCE eALlclAN CAMPAIGN.

Rome. The Russians renewed their
offensive movement in East Galicia
and in repeated attacks drove tt lr
vanced infantry posts northwest OF
Tarnopol.
The weather has cleared and with
the return of more favorable condi-
tions the Russians have begun a
heavy bombardment along the whole
Of their front.
General Polivanoff. Russian Minis.
ter of War, said that the Car has
100000 recruits well armed. well
drilled and ready for immediate
service who are to be sent TO the
front.
He also said that the munitions
crisis has been met and overcome and
that the armies have an ample sup
ply OF guns and shells.
Other Petrograd officials called at
tention to the announcement recently
made that when the Russians again
assumed the offensive it would be no
sporadic movement with an advance
here and there. but campaign to a
finish.
On the western front u e French
have made several attacks in an ef-
fort to regain ground lost by them
south OF the Somme. but they were
repulsed. The onslaughts followed a
terrific bombardment.
Large bodies of German troops have
been transferred from Russia to the
western arena and the move Is held
by the Russian military expert to
indicate that the Germans are pre-
pairing again to devote the greater
share of their strength to the war
areas IN France and Belgium

NOEL NICHOLS DIED LAST
 NIGHT

Our community was shocked this morning to learn of the death of Noel Nichols. which occurred at the home of his parents, Mir. and Mrs. J. T Nichols last night at 12 o'clock.
 Mir. Nichols had been ill only a few days and his condition was not con sidered serious. He became worse suddenly Tuesday and nothing could be done for his relief.
 Noel Nichols was the only son of Mir. and Mrs. Nichols, was one of our very prominent young men and at the time of his death was leading can didate for tax assessor of Nevada county. He had spent the greater portion of his life in Prescott and was held in high esteem by every citizen. He is survived by his par ents, and five sisters, Mrs. Hesterly of this city, Mrs. Ben Hatley of Hope Mrs. Ernest Stainton, of Texarkana, Mrs. Monroe Wood of Gale, and Miss Beunah Nichols of this city.
 The remains will be carried to Bluff City tomorrow and will be inferred in the old family burying ground.

DECLINE CONTINUES
 ON COTTON MARKET
More Activity is Reported, But Prices Fall Qff-ClOse 12 to 15 Under High Level of Rally Last Week.

New York, Feb. 15.-The cotton market was little more active today with prices declining under local Liquidation | and Southern selling. May contracts sold off to 1900 or about I2S points under the high level reached on the rally of last week, and clos ed at 12.01 with the general list closing steady at a net loss of from l12 to 15 points.
 The market opened steady at a de- cline of to 4 points in response to rather disappointing Liverpool cables. There was considerable covering around the initial prices and the mar ket held steady right after the call, but soon turned easier owing to in- creased weakness in Liverpool and continued scattering liquidation through Wall street and wire houses.
 Rumors that the easier turn in Liverpool might reflect improvement in the freight situation helped to cause rallies of 2 or 3 points late in the morning, but were not confirmed, and the market later became easier under rather more general selling. March sold at 11.78; July at 12.18, and October 12.32, or II to 15 points under last nights closing figures, and the market closed at practically the low point of the day.
 A report was received from Texas saying that unfavorable grain crop prospects might lead to increased acreage in cotton and there was also a report from Georgia that planters were planning increased area.
 Reports of a break in the Missis- sippi levee north of St. Joseph, La, led to fears of property damage, but seemed to create little apprehension as to the effect of new crop pros poets.
