RUSHING UP RESERVES
Germans Are Trying to Check
American Advance.
Yankees Capture Two Towns in Cham
payne Sector After Severe
Fighting.

Paris, Sept 80. The American
army operating on the Champagne
front has captured Brieulles-sur-M Mouse
and Romagne, west of that town on
the outskirts of the forest of Romagne,
and the attack is progressing favor
ably.
Left Makes Good Progress.
With the American Army Northwest
of Verdun, Sept. 30.-The enemy great
ly increased his resistance all along
the American line, adding his stiffen-
ing opposition to the unfavorable
weather which impeded the advance
by making liaison difficult and trans
pOrtatiOn precarious. The opposition
was heaviest on the right and left, yet
the American extreme left made good
progress despite the stiffest kind of
fighting against machine guns.
The units to the right, likewise, had
to contend with heavy machine gun
and artillery fire from east of the
Meuse.
Foe Bringing Reserves.
Reports indicate that the enemy is
bringing up reserves, which will be in
position to operate in the Meuse-
Moselle sector and, is concentrating
heavy artillery in the woods west Of
Romagne. Prisoners say that heavy
machine guns are being placed along
the Kriemhilde defense line and in
other sectors in their neighborhood.
The Germans are believed to be now
using their reserves for reinforce
ments but, notwithstanding this, the
American attack continued.

Chief of Staff Explains Opera
tionS Causing Bulgaria
to Seek Peace.
HOLDING UPPER HAND
Massing of American, French and
British Forces on Western Front
Has Prevented Germany From
Aiding Balkan State.

Washington, Sept 30.-In the opin'
Ion of General March, chief of staff,
unified military operations on the
western front, backed by the concen-
tration offensive power of the Amer
lean army, has forced Bulgaria to seek
separate peace.
The detection of Bulgaria, carrying
with it the only connecting link be-
tween Turkey and Teutonic powers
and the foreshadowing of the probable
restoration of Roumania to the fight
ing ranks, the chief of staff said in
his weekly conference, is due directly
to the massing of French, British and
American forces on the western front.
Last week l told you that the news
during the week had been continuous
ly good" said General March. This
week it is continuously better"
Win on Western Front.
1.-THE detection Of Bulgaria, their de-
sire for separate peace, is not only
important toward the conduct of the
war from the standpoint of diplomacy
and it's general effect upon the grand
strategy Of the war, but it also Illus
trate to a striking degree the results
of the present concentration of forces
on the western front.
Previous to this time when any
part of the Teutonic empires front
was threatened 1t was possible for
Germany to devote and divert some
German divisions with German com
manders to the threatened front while
they held the western front with a
relatively small force
This day has gone past. By con-
centrating the entire American force
on the western front that force to-
gether with the British and French
armies under General Foch, holds the
German army there and we see the re-
suit in Bulgaria demanding a separate
peace.
THE obvious Importance OF this
move, which would foreshadow If it
goes through, the isolation of Turkey
and the probable re-entrance of Rou-
mania into the war, needs only to be
mentioned. 1t is perfectly clear to
everybody"

Three Peace Delegates Arrive at
SaIoniki to Arrange an
: ArmiStice.
BERLIN FORWARDS AID
Admiral Won Hintz Informs Reichstag
Committee That German Rein
forcements Have Gone to
Bulgarian Front.

Paris, Sept. 30.-The Bulgarian dele
gates who are to discuss armistice
and probable peace arrangements with
the Allied governments have arrived
at Saloniki. The delegates are Gen
| eral Lonkoff, commander of the Bull
garian second army; M. Liapcheff,
finance minister, and NJ Radeff, for
mer member of the Bulgarian cab
met.
Teuton Reserves Reach Bulgaria.
Paris, Sept. 3O.-Admiral Won Hintze,
German foreign minister, declared in
a speech before the main committee
of the Reichstag, that as soon as the
first alarming news came from the
Macedonian front the German high
command Immediately sent to Bulgaria
important forces taken from the avail
able reserves.
A part of these reserves already
have arrived, he declared, and the re-
mainder soon will reach their destina-
ton. Austria already has sent on the
way very considerable forces, he
added.
In the opinion of military experts,
Admiral Won Hintze stated, the Aus
ro-German units would be ample to
re-establish the military situation, but
Notwithstanding there were several
very unfavorable factors in the situa-
ton which must be considered
Uneasiness Increasing.
Neither for Bulgaria nor for us,
however, must the game be considered
as lost" he declared.
Uneasiness over the Bulgarian sit
uation is increasing in Germany and
Austria. Germany is endeavoring to
persuade General Todoroff, chief of
the Bulgarian staff, to throw his infiu-
ence to her side.
Vienna newspapers believe that the
political reaction in Bulgaria will re-
suit in an Austrian retirement in AL
bania. Disorders are reported to have
occurred in Vienna.
Really Want Peace.
London, Sept 3O.-The news from
Bulgaria which comes through various
channels compels the belief that the
u0OAd VI InO bd1hduS Is uOC merely
seeking a breathing spell, but really
wants peace. All the evidence indi-
Gates that she needs it grievously. and
must have it.
The German pretense that Premier
Malinoff was acting on his own re-
sponsibility finds no confirmation.
King Ferdinand's crown apparently
is at stake and he is trying to save
his dynasty.
The Bulgarian finance minister and
commander in chief have reached Sa-
loniki, which adds that an American
attache will participate in the negotia-
tions.
Defeat Brings Crisis.
While Bulgaria has been disintegrat-
ing for months as a factor in the war.
her military defeat has brought mat
ters swiftly to crisis. Her three ar
mics are separated and not only are
beaten, but two of them are scattered
in flight with their German allies shar-
ing the same fate.
Occupation of Sofia by Allied troops
is possibility of the near future.

Service Certificates as Proof.

Washington, Sept. 3O-Immediate
passage of a Senate bill providing for
the acceptance of service certificates
as proof of death in the collection of
soldiers and sailors insurance has
been urged by Secretary Daniels in

tary said that without some arrange
ment, many benefciaries would be re-
uired to institute court action or await
the termination of the war before
they could secure the benefits of the
insurance policies.
