BOYDoTPARK MAKERS Some Doubt Whether the Turks and Bulgara Will Enter Greece, But Teutons May Cross Border In Pursuit of Allied Forces. London. The British and French troops have successfully carried out their retirement from Serbia across the Greek frontier, and, by an arrangement with the Greek government, a clear road has bten left for them to fall back on Salonlkl, which Is being organized as a base. The German official report of Mou-daclaims that "approximately two English divisions were annihilated" during the retirement, but this la conAcsidered here an exaggeration. count from Athens and Salonlkl say the retreat was carried out in an orderly manner and without heavy losses. By the destruction of railway bridges and roads, and by stubborn actions. In one of which two companies of the Ennlskll-te- n regiment sacrificed themselves to save their comrades, the Bulgarians were kept at a fairly safe distance. The question now arises whether s the Bulgarians and intend . to follow the British and French troops into Greece, and what action the Greek government will take should they do so. The Impression gained from dispatches emanating In Athens la that neither the Bulgarians nor the Turks, who also are reported to have arrived near the frontier, would be allowed In Greece, and that, therefore, If It has been decided to follow the entente allies s the task will be undertaken by and Germana. However, with the railway destroyed, it may be some days befoie Greece Is called upon to take action, and by that time the Anglo-Frencforcea should be safe in the defense of Salonlkl and under the guns of their ships. y rear-guar- d Austro-German- Aus-trian- MISSOURI Francis 8TATESMAN DEAD.

BOMB PLOTTERS INDICTED. e Pro- canvass of conWashington. gress completed Sunday by the New York American shows an overwhelming majority In favor of Increasing the strength of the army and navy in both senate and house. The following questions were put to senators and representatives: 1 Do you favor Increasing the strength of the army and navy? 2 If so, to what extent? On the bare question of Increased defense the answer was clear and overwhelming. The question as to the extent of defense brought plans from a program somewhat short of that proposed by President Wilson to proposals for four and five and six battleships a year. The bulk of the legislators, however, were prepared to leave the extent of the program to the congressional committees or to the military experts. Among the Democrats a sentiment favoring submarines, mines and air craft In preference to battleships de veloped, and in several cases in creases in the army were deemed subordinate to augmented naval strength. Here Is the way, according to the poll, that congress stands upon the Is sue: Of the Democrats In the house, 143 are la favor of the Increase, while but seventeen are registered as against It The Republicans aligned themselves 121 for and four against It. Thirty-onDemocrats and forty-siRepublicans were absent and thirty-seveDemocrats and twenty-eigh- t Republicans were noncommittal. The Socialist congressmen stood one for and one against It. while the only Prohibitionist declared himself to be opposed to the Increase. In the senate forty Democrats were for the greater measure of preparedness, with one ajralnst it. eight appearing as absent and seven declining to voice their views. Twenty-threRepublicans were In favor of the In crease, with no dissenting voice. while twelve were absent and Ave non committal. The total figures for the house show 26S for and twenty-threagainst the Increase, with 143. Including one independent, mho was absent, not voting.

So long as uncontrolled hatred of Germany, and the belief that Germany Is approaching a col lapse, continues to be the dominant idea of her foes, it would be folly for Germany to take the Initiative in proposing terms of peace. Germany, however. Is ready at any time to con sider a peace suggestion from the countries with whk-- she Is at war, docs not wish a continuation of the war and disassociates herself, under these circumstances, from any responsibility for its prolongation. This Is the substance of the German Imperial chancellor's reply In the relchstag on Thursday to the Socialist Interpretation on peace, in which be painted a picture of Germany triumphant on all sides and supplied with everything, even if not In abundance, necessary to the continuation of the war. The interpellation was Introduced by Dr. Scheldemann in the following terms: "Is the Imperial chancellor ready to give Information as to the conditions under which be would be willing to enter Into peace negotiations?" "If our enemies make peace with Germany's compatible dignity and safety," said Dr. von Beth-- , maun llolweg. "then we shall always be ready to discuss them. So long as In the countries of our enemies the guilt and Ignorance of statesmen are entangled with confusion of public opinion It would be folly for Germany to tr.ake peace proposals, which London. The main armies of Europe apparently have settled down Into winter deadlock In the trenches. No pews of Important engagements along the main lines has been Issued tor several days. The Italians continue to bombard Gorlzia. but the complete fall of that town, which has been expected at any hour for the past fortnight. Is still delayed. The Austro-German- s have withdrawn from Lemberg, Gallcia, according to a Kiev dispatch, which gives the prevalence of scurvy as the reason for this movement, but military critics consider It more reasonable to believe that they are straightening and shortening their lines for the winter. They are constructing fortifications along the southern aectlon of their front. No definite details have been received of the retirement of the French and British forces in the Balkans upon Salonlkl. but this movement continues. The Paris Temps asserts positively thst the allies have decided to remain with Salonlkl as their base and send sufficient reinforcements to renew their offensive. It is claimed tne retreat of the allies was effected without great toss. was Apparently this information gleaned from the Anglo French council of war In Paris. Consequently the Balkans will remain the center of Interest A Keuter dispatch from Athens asserts that the Greek government will concede all the allies' dewould not shorten, tut would length- mands and that part of the Greek will be removed from Salonlkl, en, the war.
