This event Marks the virtual collapse of the German resistance along the Hindenburg line. Under the pressure of the British French and american armies maintained practically without a interruption since the bold counter stroke of the French on july is the germans have fallen Back until everything which they gained in the most powerful of their offensives in the West has been lost. Now they find themselves unable to stay the Advance of their in evacuating St the ranch hold ail but the Eastern fringe of the admit their inability to avoid the logical consequences of failing Man Power and wavering morale. Marshal p och s policy of the continuous offensive has been justified and May yet result in even More spectacular achievements.

From Bulgaria itself comes the report of the arrival of German troops in Large with the object of holding the Orient railway against the allies. More probably their object is to. the War weary population maintain the fiction thai the armistice has been entered into by a Mere faction in the government. The Protection of the Orient railway by Means of which communication with constantinople is carried on would imply the Cre a Irvn of a longer front than the Austio germans can have any Hope of Manning in sufficient strength to prevent the allies from cutting the railway wherever they might choose. Nevertheless the closing of communications Between the Central empires and Turkey will virtually Settle the Fate of the latter and some Effort May actually be made to keep them open. The threat of the allies will probably be made against Nish. And in that Case the German troops South of that Point would be dangerously isolated.
