RUSSIAN REPORTS CONFLICTING LONDON, Nov. 16.—The exact sit- | uation in central Macedonia is uncer- tain. Dispatches from the near east | are conflicting and doubt as to the time of events to which they refer injects an additional element of un- certainty. It is clear, however, that the Bulgarians have been reinforced | and have begun a new offensive. The operations In central Mace- donia,’ according to Rome uccounts, present a most powerful menace to the armies of Serbia and its alllon,: which are operating from Tetovo | through Perlepe to the southeastern | Serblan fronmtler. Telegrams - re- | ceived almost simultaneously from | Greece announce that Tetovo {s in| the hands of both the Serblans and | the Bulgarians, but the preponder-| anoe of evidence points to Bulgarian occupation of this front, Monastir Agnin in Danger. The Bulgarians are making desperate efforts to force their way through Kat- chanik Pass in the direction of Pristina. | They are also attempting to advanoce | from Tetovo to Perlépe and uanunrl and by forcing Babuna Pass, to reach Perlepe from the other side. These op- erations are sald to have placed Monastir | again in danger, It is not at present a problem whether the newly arrived French and British forces are large enough to meet this Bul- garian onslaught, which apparently has begun with extraordinary vigor. What Greece will do In event the al- Med troops are forced back over the Greek border is still & matter of specu- lation. A message from Greece says the government will extend to the Serblans the same privileges as those accorded to the French and British In case of thelr encroachment on Greek territory, but in view of the fact that no definite an- nouncement has been made as to what original statement of Premier Skoulidis that the allied troops would be permitted to reach the sea unmolested, the inten- tions of Greece remain obscure. Conflieting Reports from Russia, On the Galictan front the Russ'ans, While admitting they have ylelded some #round in .the melghborhood of the Styr forts, do not concede they have been forced back across the river, as is claimed in the German official com- munication of yesterday. Further details of this fighting will be necessary to determine whether the Rus- slans have lost the town of Caartorysk, and whether Russlan control of the rallway is thereby endan- n-'nm m Mr age, is. muu 'llh hl- .-ldlun the Firing Line. ~(Via Jaia Fo to - M.

Greece Modities Ita Position, LONDON, Nov. 16.~The Greek govern- ment is reported to have modified its position somewhat in favor of the en- tente allles. The correspondent at Athens of the Exchange Telegraph company says it has decided that in the event of & retreat of the aliles to Greek soll Ser- blan troops will be placed on the same footing as the British and French, Premier Skouloudis originally proposed to permit the French and British to reach the sea without interference from the Greeks, but to disarm Serblans who crossed the border. The change 1s due, the correspondent says, to formidable ob- jections raised by the French minister at Athens, However, it still remains for Greece to define {ts position nlculy Désignation of a neutral zone Has been suggested.

Hayes of Lincoln, in a ru—\ |cent tornado. ] For some time Miss Hayes has been jemployed as a soclety writer on a paper at Great Bend. Because the | rallroad reporter was away at the moment, Miss Hayes was sent to the rallway station to meet the tralns Ordinarily she went to her honrdlnn} house about that time of day for her evening meal, but this time she was | away down by the depot at supper | time. 8he looked across the street to a small restaurant, “I'll not go home for supper this even- ing," she said to herself. “I'll just slip across to the restaurant and get a bite to eat.” She opened her purse. There was a handkerchief. She pulled that out. There was also a small mirror. She took that out. There was a plece of chamols skin with a little pink powder on it. Ehe clawed that out, and maybe polished her nose a little. Unable to Go to Restaurant But money was & scarce article. Down in the corner of the handbag she found a nickel she had saved for street car fare That was not enough to get her supper “Nothing doing,” she sald to herself “I'll not eat supper at all. I'll wait until 1 get home.” By this time it was raining. 8he looked out of the depot window at the splash splash on the streets. The wind began to | blow. She watched the wind drive the rain in great writhing, twisting serpents of mist down the street. Then suddenly the heavens grew black. The sky came down like a big black hat shutting everybody in. The crash came. There was a roaring that drowned the roap of the trains for a moment, and all was over. Across the strect the little restaurant where momentary poverty prevented her from being at that minute, was only a wrecked and tangled heap of kindling wood, literally blown to toothpicks, while there was important business In digging the killed and injured out of the wreck- age.
