There is increasing j misgiving in England with regard Toi the outcome of Tho manoeuvre. On the other fronts the situation As it concerns the russian position Little change. Near the Gall clan Frontier after driving the aus trans into a considerable Retreat Tho russians have for Tho moment halted their offensive probably be cause of the arrival of reinforce ments for Tho no new movement has been re ported from the Balkans where at the last advices a grave situation appeared to hang on the bearing out of reports that Tho germans Aro aiding the austrians in preparations for a drive through Serbia probably planned to eliminate that belligerent from further consideration in the teutonic War councils. That bul Garia is mobilizing has bean established by Many news reports but apparently Thero is nothing to show that this additional mobilization is not for further Assurance of her own neutrality. One news Agency Dis Patch however stated that Serbia has declared her bulgarian Frontier a closed War area and is preparing to resist an expected invasion.

Been hammered by the German artillery but according to Tho British official report prompt retaliation by Tho British balanced the score. The Quatro Tollan dead lock continues. At Tho Dardanelles Thero 1st continual Cann Nading but no movement of importance. Extensive scope of proposed commission is stated that when the government appoints a commission which for some time it has had in View to go into the whole question of agricultural production transportation and marketing it is probable that it will be a larger body than is usually created. The idea would enable work to be divided up and undertaken by different groups thus. Providing for greater expedition than would bet possible where the whole commission Scalt with the different questions successively. It is expected that selection if this body will be made in tie near future. Sir William Home was to have headed the Board but after agreeing to the appointment he was stricken with an illness which resulted in his death a week ago. The investigation proposed will not Deal alone with agricultural prob lems but also with Allied subjects including immigration to the War.
