LOOTON, Sept 30. Turkey Is ex
pected to follow the lead of Bulgaria
In seeking: an armistice with a view to
arranging for peace.
PARIS, Sept. 30. An armistice was
concluded and signed between the
allies and Bulgaria on the allies' own
terms last night. A Saloniki dispatch
says:
"General Franchet d'Esperey, the
allied commander-in-chief in Macedo
nia, sig-ned for the allies, and the Bul
garian delegates for their government.
"Instructions have been given by the
Kovernment to General D'Esperey to
proceed immediately to the execution
of the conditions of the armistice.
"The actual suspension of hostilities
immediately followed the signing of
the armistice, but it is noted that this
suspension applies only to Macedonian
hostilities against Bulgaria and that it
in no way affects Macedonian hostili
ties which the allied armies will con
tinue against Austria-Hungary, Turkey
and the German contingents sent to
that locality.
King Gives Approval.
?The armistice, La Liberte declares
editorially, was signed with the full
consent of King Ferdinand. It prints
a. denial of a report that he had taken
refuge in Vienna. The King, it de
clares, had not left Sofia."
The Temps says that Bulgaria capitu
lated, knowing that Germany could no
longer help her and she did not wish to
eee her own country a field of battle
In 1913, the Temps continues, Rados
lavoff (Bulgarian Premier) avenged the
ambush of General Savoff (Minister of
war in the Radoslavoff Cabinet) and
now the Malinoff-Savoff Cabinet av
enges the ambush of Radoslavoff.
"While it is too soon to appreciate the
full political consequences of Bulgaria's
abandonment of the central powers,
the newspaper concludes, "yet it is
jilain that Bulgaria's action gives a fa
tal blow to Turkey and perhaps renders
a. service to Austria, as Austria now
possesses an excuse for capitulation
WHICH previously it wanted.
Beginning of End Seen.
The capitulation of Bulgaria, says the
Journal Des Eebats, is the beginning of
the end for the central powers. Ger
many, it adds, will have the greatest
difficulty in concentrating forces on the
Belgrade-Nish line in an attempt to
cave her communications with the Ori
ent, and the central powers are in
capable, of occupying Bulgaria or set
ling up there a government to resist
the allies.
"Ferdinand is doomed." it continues,
as his subjects will never pardon this
disaster.
"Formerly the central powers threat
ened to dominate the Balkans and the
Eastern Mediterranean, but the present
Bulgarian debacle finds the central
powers menaced on all the Balkan
fronts. The feeble Austrian garrison
remaining in Serbia after Bulgaria's
withdrawal, will be annihilated.
Slav Likely to Rise.
"With the capitulation of the Bui
srarians the Austrian falavs wlf rise
against their despotic rulers and the
fate of the Hapsburgs will be accom
plished. An uprising in Bosnia and
Herzegovina is a necessary sequel to
the freeing of Serbia.
"Turkey must follow the example of
Bulgaria and thus the Berlin-Bagdad
tiream disappears.

HIGH IDEALS HAILED
President's Speech Welcomed
by Spanish Press.
AIMS HELD NOBLE, HUMAN
Declaration Made That Address Ap
peals Especially to IInmq.Ier
Element That Is Eager for
Eqnity and Justice.
MADRID, Sept. 29. (Router's.) All
the newspapers here publish the ad
dress of President Wilson In New York
full. In commenting on the speech.
the Liberal says:
The address is the noblest thing that
has been thought or said since the be
ginning of the war. It is the epitome
of the general spirit of amity which
dwells in the depth of every conscience
that Is free from covetous egoism. Per
haps President Wilson's programme
may be too idealistic . . . but we
must not forget that this doctrine, so
noble and so human, will be guaranteed
in return by the mighty power of the
United States."
Price of True Peace Seem.
"The President's address." says the
Epoca, "will make a profound impres
sion on all by its sublime disinterested
attitude, renouncing as it does, all de
sire for territorial and. economic de
lineations." The Dairo Universal says:: "It is
only by adopting the disinterested prin
ciples of President Wilson that true
peace will be attained. Never has there
been a clearer or more exalted ideal
of humanity than that which President
has outlined, it rinas an ecno in ub
all. especially in those humbler ones
amongst us who are eager for Justice
and equity. President Wilson's prom
ises are rich with treasure and bright
with hope and it is to be desired that
they be realized soon."
PARIS. Sept. 29. Commenting on
President Wilson's liberty loan address
the Temps says that his decision
against forming special alliances after
the war needs further explanation.
Temps Takes Issue.
Threatened states, the newspaper
says, could hardly count for their sole
defense on the halting procedure of an
International Congress or the slow ef
fect of economic reprisals.
BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 30. Com
menting editorially on Presiaent Wil
son's speech La Naclon says:
"The President shows that no nation
whatsoever may continue to regard the
situation indifferently after taking in
to consideration what might be tne
war's issues. Most of these issues must
be a guarantee to. weak peoples that
they shall receive the same rights aa
the mighty. But the greatest interest
of the conquerors, and President Wil
son has not the slightest doubt who
the conquerors will be, is in the organ
ization of the league of nations."
HAIG'S ARMY IN CAMBRAI
was marked by hard fighting as the
day advanced.
Progresa la Slowed TJowm.
The enemy counter attacked heavily
at critical points and, although the
progress for the whole day was quite
satisfactory, it could not be as rapid as
elsewhere on the front.
The American troops showed magni
ficent zeal, although in their desire to
get on and come to grips wi! the Ger
mans some of them did norlve quite
sufficient attention to the less Inter
esting but highly necessary work of
mopping up. with the result that Ger
man units left behind In well-concealed
places continued to fire upon them after
tney had passed. In this way they
made the same error that British and
indeed, all fresh troops have committed
again and again.
Although the enemy fought stub
bornly many of his men showed a dis
position which Is being found every,
where to surrender on slight provoca.

By nightfaii bunday night the allfei
were along the main Hindenburg line
or across it over most of the front of
the new attacfl. Cambrai apparently
was nestling In a deep little salient in
the British line and there was some
speculation as to whether the British
would surround it-this morning.

and. after a pause, the advance was

Then one of the most dramatic Inci
dents of the battle occurred. The
Americans, tired and besplashed, but
in hearty spirits, opened their ranks
and Australian units, moving up in
support, swept through them and be
came the first wave of the renewed at-

greeted this maneuver arose high above
tne roar or conrilct.
Redoubts Are Conquered.
There was hard fighting at many
places where the Germans had estab
lished redoubts of extraordinary
strength. American battalions, which
advanced so rapidly at first that some
were checked by their own barrage
fire, met with strong resistance. An
immensely strong machine gun posi
tion at the entrance of the subter
ranean canal gave much trouble but
was subdued by the aid of tanks.
New Zealand regiments drove a deep
wedge into the enemy's line at a point
directly south of Cambrai and took 1000
prisoners.

LOSDOJf. Tuesday, Oct. 1. Frledrlch
von Payer, German Imperial Vice-chan
cellor, haa resigned, aeeordlna to an
Amsterdam dispatch to the Central
News. -
AMSTERDAM, Sept. 30. Cnancellor
von Hertling and Foreign Secretary
von Mintze have tendered their resig
nations to the Emperor, the Vossische
Zeitung of Berlin says it understands.
Emperor William has accepted the
resignations, according to the Zeitung
Am Mittag, of Berlin.
Emperor William has addressed the
following to Count von Hertling:
Your Excellency has reported to me
that fj'ou no longer find yourself In
position to remain at the head of the
Government. I will not hide from my
self your reasons and must with heavy
heart deny myself your further co
operation."
lou are certain of the thanks of ths
fatherland for the sacrifices you made
in undertaking the Chancellor's office
in grave times and for the services you
renaerea.
'I desire that the German neoDle
shall co-operate more effectively than
hitherto In deciding the fate of the
fatherland."
It is therefore my will that the
men who have been borne up by the
people's trust shall in a wide extent
co-operate in the rights and duties of
government. I beg of you to termi
nate your work by continuing to con
duct the government's business and
preparing the way for measures de
sired by me until I have found a suc
cessor for you."
The German press todar is hysteri
cally emphasizing that the need for cool
heads never was greater than now.
The possibility, never before enter
tained or visualized, is beginning to
dawn on the people that Germany may
lose tne war and tne suddenness of this
realization has had a bewildering ef
fect. Voerwserts Attlts.de Indorsed.
The Zeitung Am Mittag entirely ap
proves as wholly appropriate to the oc
casion the sensational editorial printed
In Vorwaerts last week, dealing with
what would happen should an enemy
succeed in Invading the fatherland. It
makes an assertion remarkable for this
newspaper, saying:
"Our government throughout this ter
rible war has sedulously avoided hint
ing at this, and the other possibility,
namely, that the war may be lost if
everybody and everything are not
united In the utmost effort.
"The Government has thus iteelf con
tributed tA veiling the real gravity of
our position during these four years of
war." the newspaper continues. "It haa
preferred to lead the nation in blinkers
past the abyss of danger to our national
life."
The Rhenlsche Westphallan Gasette
shudderingly characterizes the Bulga
rian situation "the last and highest
wave" and suspects that the Bulga
rians, after having got the Dobrudja
region of Roumania. have no further
use for Germany.
Balaam Held Jnstlfled.
The Frankfort Zeitung expresses re
gret that the government failed to im
press friend and foe with the "truth"
that Germany did not go into the war
out of lust for power.
This newspaper freely admits that
the Bulgarians are justified in feeling
war-tired and thinks the Bulgarian
people will stand with Premier Malinoff.
Finally, the Frankfort Zeitung begs
the Government to make for peace
"unequivocally and sincerely." '
The Dusseldorf Nachrichten bewails
the fact that troops will have to be
sent to Macedonia from the west front.

During the night the British at

this operation was entirely successful.
The "weather today has been bad for

LONDON, Sept. 30, 5 P. M. The
British today cut the Hindenburg line
on a front of eight miles and pene
trated through it to a depth of three
miles in flanking operations about
St. Quentin.
The German communications in this
region are under such an intense fire
that it is impossible for them to get
any quantity of men or material in
or out. .
The British are in no hurry to clear
up the situation about Cambrai and it
may be three or four days before they
actually take the town. The German
communications there also have been
ruined and they cannot bring in help
or take away much material.
