special lines have also been supplied
for the troops at bridges, grain depots
and other places being guarded.
In addition to the governments use
Of our service, increased business &C.
tivity incident to the war has placed
further demands upon our telephone
facilities. We are handling over 30
per cent more long distance calls than
we did before the war and the num-
Der of local calls, particularly in the
larger cities, has greatly increased.
The long distance telephone facili-
ties out of the city of Washington
have been more than doubled since
the war began and in all the principal
centers both the local and long dis
lance equipment has been greatly in
creased in an endeavor to handle the
heavy telephone burden caused by war
activities.
Nearly 5000 skilled telephone engi-
neers and maintenance men from the
Bell system alone have been organ
lied into signal corps battalions for
service with the armies in the field.
Many more of our men are with the
national guard and in other branches
of the country's military service.
The situation confronting us has
caused great difficulty in getting and
installing equipment for the most ur-
gent private needs. Our long dis
lance facilities are loaded to their ut
most capacity and our local service in
some localities is suffering on account
of the conditions over which we have
no control
AS the war continues the govern
ment's requirements for trained tele-
phone men and for service and equip
ment are increasing. The present
business activity is also likely to be
extended as the war goes on In the
interests Of all, we hope that our pa
irons will ask for no additional equip
ment unless absolutely essential to
the conduct of their business and that
they will put every possible restraint
on the unnecessary and extravagant
use of our local and long distance
service.

 Nations.

Petrograd, June 12 - Energetic support of the provisional govern ment by the Cossacks has been pledg- ed by their delegate to the congress of peasants. M. Kuban. Delegate Kuban declared that the Cossacks rec ognize only one authority, namely the provisional government. and would not tolerate the undermining of it's power by separate groups and indi- vidualS.
 He said the Cossacks would not hesitate to use arms if the government required it.
 The delegate added that when Le- ninite agitators came to Cossack ter- ritory they were greeted with but one word, "Go," and they went.
 The congress of peasants which is sitting in Novotcherkask, capital of the territory of the Don Cossaeks, haH telegraphed greetings to the Aneri- can, British, French and Japanese ambassadors in Petrograd, assuring them that the congress will do all in it's power to help defeat the ene- mics of liberty and equality. Speakers at the congress declared that the Don peasants were in full accord with the Don Cossacks.

Bulgaria Not
 To Force War. Into Greece
Against Politics = Will Claim Territory From Ru- mania Occupied by Bull gar Speaking People Situation at Home Satis- factory.

Berlin. June 12. via London-Bu1- garia has no intention to try to car ry the war into Greece, according to statement made by the Bulgarian premier, M. Radoslavoff, in an inter view given to the Berlin newspapers on. Saturday. The premier said the Bulgarians were in a position to s,Ic- cessfully assume the offensive against Gen. sarrairs army, but added:
 Tt is not in the direction of our politics. however, to carry the war into Greece. The violations of iater- national law which the Entente has permitted itself in Greece are now in- centive for Us to follow suit. =
 Even without taking the offensive we are looking into the future on this front with complete confidence. Things are going our way and the same holds good on the Russian front. We are fully informed of the state of affairs in Russia, where con- fusion is far worse than admitted. No danger is. menacing us from this source." r
 Asked regarding the Bulgarian at titude toward Rumania, Premier Ra- doslavoff answered:
 "The Bulgarians are only claiming territory in which the Bulgarian lan- guage is spoken. The Dobrudja be- longs to this area, as it was forcibly taken from us by the treaty of Bu- charest. We are insisting that such territories as are populated by Bull garian speaking people become again part of our country. If the principle of the right of nationalities to deter mine their allegiance is recognized, the Bulgarian speaking sections of Macedonia and Dobrudja will be aI- lotted to. Bulgaria.
 The minister declared that the po- litical and economic situation in Bull garia was wholly satisfactory.

Elm Street House
 Won't Be Rented
 Again for Gambling

The promise of John Streets attor- ney, that the house at 59 Elm street, would never again be used for gamb ling purposes, and that it was to be renovated and immediately rented to a private family saved the defendant from receiving jail sentence at the hands of Judge Bartlett.
 The premises have been raided sew eral times. Saturday night Capt Blansfield and a squad of men visited the house and seized a roulette wheel, card tables and other gambling para phernalia valued at $2,500. Street was arrested charged with maintain ing a gambling resort and Joseph Fet- tus, of 99 Poplar street and Thomas Pitts of East Main arrested as fre- Quenters.
 Judge Bartlett fined Street $100 and court costs and imposed sus- pended jail sentence of three months.
 John V. Dunn, who conducts a ci- gar store at 60 Elm street, opposite the Street establishment, whose place was raided by Capt. Charles Wheeler and a squad of men Saturday night, simultaneously with the other raid, was charged with maintaining a gambling den. The police claimed they found 15 men playing poker. IHey were dli dTIeSteu as IreQuenterS and forfeited bonds of $15 each this morning.
 Dunn was fined $50 and costs and a suspended jail sentence of three months was imposed.
 William Thomas, known in colored circles as Baby Doll," who was arr rested on the same charge as Dunn and Street, Saturday night, had his case continued until next Saturday. He managed to have another charge against him disposed of by the court. He was fined s10 and costs TOT beat ing up another colored man who was objected from his club. He appealed
