WFIIHIIIIPPFII Forces in Macedonia Now Admirably Ad-mirably Provided For Russia's Rus-sia's Inaction Hinders. LONDON, June 29. The military correspondent of the Times gives a detailed account of the present conditions condi-tions of the British forces in Mesopotamia, Mesopot-amia, showing a complete contrast with the revelations in the report on the Mosopotamian expedition, made public Tuesday night in the bluo book. The correspondent says the army there now Is admirably provided and medical arrangements are thoroughly 'satisfactory. j Tho writer says events In Russia considerably Influenco the British position po-sition in Mesopotamia and in consequence conse-quence of the inaction of tho Russian army in Caucasus the situation of Gen. Maude, commander-in-chief, is radically radical-ly changed. If the Russian offensive under Gen. Yudevitch, ex-commander-in-chiof of the Caucasus, had been prosecuted tho Anglo-Italian army would now form the left flank of the Russian line. Gen. Yudevitch was removed re-moved and no offensive occurred.
