ficially announced today.
LONDON, Oet. 0. Although the
Inst twenty-four hows brought no
elimnx in the swiftly chnngiug pol
itienl situation in the Halknns, Lon
don begins to iow it in elcurer per
spective. The departure of the quad
ruple entente diplomats lias given fin
nlity to nulguria's eommittmetit to
tho sido of the central powers, but
ns yet there has been no formal dec
laration of war between Hulguriu and
Serbia nnd the entente.
With tho exception of nn uncon
firmed report of a Russian bombard
ment of tho Unitarian coast near
Vama no overt act of hostilities has
been committed by Hulgnria or her
new opponents. Nevertheless Hill
jjnriti is reported to bo preparing a
flunk attack on Serbia, carried out
in conjunction with the Austro-flor-mnn
invasion. She, is concentrating
cavalry, suppoited by heavy artillery
jindcr Gennnn command, in tho direc
tion of Koostondil, southwest of So
fia, near tho Serbian border.
Invaders ItcpiiLsod
According lo nffinial Serbian ad
vices, the Austro-Uominii nttauk has
not won much of an initial success,
the invaders having suffered largo
losses in crossing the Save nnd now
being pinned to tho brink of the
river. Many Qci mans ate among the
prisoners and some of them lire said
to be members of a Prussian brigado
which formerly was operating against
Italy.
There slill remains n slight clement
of doubt ns lo tlio iillitudo of Greece,
which probably will not bo dispelled
until the now cabinet makes definite
pronouncement of its policy. In the
meantime the cntonto powers appear
to be satisfied with assurances of
continued neutrality and seo no rea
son to believe .that Greece intends to
array herself nguinst them in the im
pending conflict. Allied troops to the
number of 32,000 arc reported to
have landed nlrcndy ut Suloniki, and
obstacles to their transportation to
Serbia have beon removed by the
prompt action qf the Greek minister

PARIS, Oct. 0. The reports of tho
night indicate that the German losses
'in the offensive of yesterday against
the positions of the allies near Loos
wero very heavy.
In tho Argonne, French bnlterics
put nn end to German nrtillery firu
in the sector of St. Thomns.
In the Lorraine district several
German reconnnisnnceH have been
completely repulsed. Tho statement
follows :
(,'eriiuin Iajvscs Heavy
"Tho reports of Inst nipht set
forth that tho German losses in the
offensive- movement undertaken yes
terday against Loos and the josttions
to tho noi th and to tho south of
Loos actually held by our troops
wero very heavy.
"The ussnult was made by iliren
successive and very dense forma
tions of men, followed by detach
ments in column fonnutiou. All the
troops were cut down by tho com
bined fiio of our iufnntry, machine
guns and nrtillery. Only a few de
tachments of the Ocnnnns woro suc
cessful in securing a footing in a
Ireniji recently conquered by us be
tween Loos and the rondwny from
Lens to Hcthunn. Other local at
tacks, but equalling these in ioleuce,
hnvc been repealed ngainst our posi
tions to, the southeast of Neiivillc St.
Vnnst, but they completely were ic
pulsed. All the progress mndo by
us in tho last few days has been
maintained.
Spirited Cannonading
"Thoro has been n fairly spirited
cannonading in which both sides took
part in the sector of Lisons, as well
ns in thoj;egion of Qucnncvieies and
Noiivron.
"In the Chunipngtic district a Ocr-
innn counter-nttnek delivered last
night nt a point to tho enst of tho
Nnvarin farm was definitely checked
by n curtain of nrtillery fire.
"Tho only action undertaken by
the enemy against the advances mudo
by us yesterday to the southeast of
Tnliuro consisted of a violent bom
bardment, coupled with the uso of
shells, which asphyxiated and caubed
irritation of the eyes."
