The statement says _ the unfavourable Ivl Jath or and impress has been Hiil e to St. big victories for allies continue what peace with Bulgaria Means the Progress made by the Allied forces on All Battlefront yesterday was uniformly satisfactory the conclusion of an armistice with the bulgarian Salonika puts that out of the War upon terms which have practically been dictated by the entente. These include the evacuation of All territories held by the Bulf fars outside their pre War boundaries the demobilization of the bulgarian army the Len Dering of the same Sood offices to the Bulgaria a heft Neutral rendered to the Teutons and the placing All transportation facilities within the country at the free disposal of the allies. Popular opinion in Bulgaria would seem to be favourable to the armistice in spite of reports that German troops have been received with Sofia. In any Case the disorganization of the bulgarian military establishment is Complete and any resistance Teluch the succeed in creat ing to ill have to be supplied by their own forces. The conclusion of the armistice is apparently preventing the French and serbian forces from pursuing toe German were the bulgarians. These could claim no Protection under the agreement and Are no doubt hastening northward in an Endeavor to find support within the defences that the Austro Germas Are reported to be establishing South Offish. One consequence of the collapse Bulgaria will be the immediate isolation of Turkey and eventually the invasion of its european Terri tory by tile Allied armies. Before that can be undertaken there is More than a. Possibility that Turkey will also sue for peace. The British in Palestine Are continuing the round up of the enemy s troops which Are surrendering in Large numbers. It is unlikely that the Tum ii can in any Case recover their military efficiency and a Strong Iri vement in favor or an Early peace on the Allic i Tei my May be expected to develop.
