Indeed, is not improbable if the advance from the south continues as rapid as is, the greater portion of the Ger- man’ army will be trapped before the men can reach their border. The situ- tion of the Germans segmingly is a ritical one.

Entire regiments are surrendering to the Italians in the mountains and large numbers of the enemy are being made prisoner on the plains. Heavy casualties are being inflicted on the retiring troops. Many additional towns have been reclaimed. In their swift drive against the Austro-Hungarians the allied forces have up to the present taken more than 100,000 prisoners and have cap- tured more than 2,200 zuns. So rapid has been the advance over the plains that Italian cavalry already bas cross- cd the Tagliamento river, and entered Udine. TURKEY’S ONLY HOPE RESTS WITH THE UNITED STATES Boston, Nov. 3.—Rev. James L. Barton, foreign:secretary of the Amer- ican Board of Commissioners for For- eign Missions, in a statement made public here tdday, declared that the state department in Washington and Lord Bryce, former ambassador from Great Britain and chairman of the European allies committez on near eastern affairs, favor the United States taking a major part in reorganizing and reshaping the government of Turkey, Bulgaria and the Bankan peninsula. ‘here is no country in the worl he said, “which stands so close Turkey as does the United States as a result of missionary work which it has done there, Whether rightly or wrongly, the United States did not get into war with Turkey, and, as I was told in the state department this week, America is to take a large hand in_reorganizing the near east. “If European jowers were to un- dertake this task, jealgusy would be stirred up. The nation undertaking it must be one not under suspicious of colonial ambitions, and Lord Bryce has come to the conclusion that the only nation fitted for the work is the United States, “If independence not be given Armenia, this war will have fought in vain.” Henry Morgenthau, former ambas- sador to Turkey, who has been in Massachusetts making speeches for the democratic party, stated that America must take a large part in rebuilding Turkey. ‘He declared that the American missions had been the one bright spot in Turkey before the war. 2 to to been, FRENCH LINER ARRIVES * WITH ALL LIGHTS ABLAZE \n Atlantic Port, Nov. 3.—A lafge ench liner arrived here during the ieht with all her lights ublaze.

NEWFOUNDLAND St. John's, N. F., Nov. 3—Reports of geologists and engineers who have examined a coal deposit recently dis- covered on the west coast of New- foundland indicate that enough coal |is available to warrant mining opera- tions, according to announcement yes- terday by the Reid Newfoundiand company, owners of the property. The seam, which was feund near the town of Godroy. is believed by experts to be an_extension of the deposits on Cape Breton lIsland which produce millions of tons annually. The mine is locatéd within a_mile of the main railroad of the island, op- erated by the Reid railway and steam- {bout interests, and is also within shore distance of tidewater. The com- pany reported that within 18 months it will probably be possible to pruduce the total of 200,000 tons of soft coal used annually in this colony. which is now imported from Nova Scotia. The company is also making inve o freported iron ore deposits on the island, it was etated.
