WHY FERDINAND QUIT

United States Consul Declares Ruler

Paris, Oct. 2.-It was the fear of

King Ferdinand Of Bulgaria to turn

The consul general, the dispatch
states on his arrival at Saloniki from
Sofia In company with the Bulgarian
plenipotentiaries. gave interesting de-

for an armistice. King Ferdinand, the
account declares, assembled the grand
council September %, with the result
that formal demand was made on
Perlin and Vienna for immediate as

tone Of the demand Germany and Aus

for the future.
That. the account continues, settled

But what impelled the king most,

King Ferdinand, 1t is added, haunt

He considered it essential for his coun-

FOE TO FLEE BELGIUM
Germans Preparing to Evacuate
Conquered Country.
Military Governor Orders Removal Of
All Archives From Brussels, Is
Amsterdam Report

Amsterdam, Oct. Germany is pre-
pairing to evacuate Belgium.
All reports filtering through from the
Invaded little kingdom contain the
strongest hints that such is the Ger
1nan plan and these reports are re-en-
forced by correspondents posted along
the frontier who have opportunities Of
watching the preparations.
Late Tuesday one of these corre-
spondents telegraHled that Baron Won
FalkenhauSen, the military governor Of
Belgium, already has secretly ordered
the removal of all archives from Brus-
sells. A great array of vans containing
luggage and boxes of documents Is said
to be ready to start on the homeward
journey.
German soldiers in Belgium are
quoted as openly saying:
1--WE won't be here longer than six
weeks more"
The Belgian population is secretly
Joyous, but does it's best to restrain all
manifestations of jubilation lest the in
vaders order the usual punitive meas
ures.
