Bulgarian Refugees From
Petrich Swarm Roads
in Search of Food.
GREEK SHELLS FATAL
Bulgaria Mobilize Troops
to Halt the Invasion,
Now Reported 20
Miles Wide.
(By th Assoclatsd Press.)
Bombardment and invasion of
Bulgarian territory by tbe Oreeka
have continued notwithstanding
atepa taken by the League of Na
tions toward peace.
Just aa the world has begun to
believe that hostilities along the
Macedonian border baa ceased and
that the warring factlona would re
main quiescent until the council of
the league settled tbe controversy,
the Greek artillerists late Friday
afternoon, loosed a rain of shells
against the already sorely stricken
town of Petrich and Greek troops
advanced further Into Macedonia.
The Athens government la of the
opinion that the fresh maneuver
was made before the Greek com
mander received the orders to
cease hostilities but to remain In
the positions occupied by the
Greeks until Bulgaria bad accept
ably replied to the Greek demand
" for Indemnity and an apology.
Just how far the Greeks have In
vaded Bulgarian territory baa not
been definitely established but Bul
garian advlcea assert that they
have occupied 140 square miles of
' territory and that In addition they
are resorting to veritable pillage,
requisitioning wheat and foodstuffs
ef all kinds from the panic-stricken
Inhabitants.
From Sofia comes a tale of ter
ror and suffering In tbe war-ridden
territory. Fifteen thousand per
sons are homeless, and other thous
ands, men, women, and children,
suffering from cold and hunger, are
choking the roada In hasty flight
to get out of tbe danger tone. A
majority of the fleeing refugees
are without food and without hope
of securing any and fear is express
ed that disease shortly will mani
fest Itself among them.
In the shelling of towns tbe
Greeks are declared to have used
long range guns. Three children
and four women are said to have
been killed by n shell which ex
ploded at the railway station.
The town Is a mass of ruins. Fre
quently during tbe bombardment
terror-stricken peasanta along the
roadways were beard to ask:
"Has It come again the war?"
League ef Nations Intervenes.
The council of the League of Na
tions has taken a hand In the af
fair. It has- been summoned to
meet next Monday In Paris to en
deavor to aettle the strife. In the
notification to both Greece and Bul
garia to send representatives to
the meeting, it was pointed out by
Aristlde Briand, president of the
council' of the league, that under
Article XII of the covenant of the
league both aides to the controver
sy must submit their dispute eith
er to arbitration or to inquiry by
the council and agree not to resort
to war until three months after
the award of the arbitrators of the
report of the council.
Notwithstanding Intervention by
the League of Nations, the Greco
Bulgarian crisis seemed to be
growing more acute today with
new troop movements reported on
both sides.
- The Greeks, following their ad'
vance to Petrich, In the Struma
valley are 'reported to be moving
against the Runel pass, which they
claim has been- used by Bulgarians
as the route for incursions Into
Greek territory.
Authoratlve sources In Sofia aay
Bulgaria la determined to resist
any further advances by the
Oreeka, determined to make a
stand aa far as her limited military
strength permits.
The Bulgarians are aendlng a
new protest to the League of Na
tions. The meeting of the league
council, which is to Inquire Into
the dispute, Is aet far Monday af
ternoon In Paris.
Bulgaria Moves Per Defense.
