THE BULGARS
ARE DRIVEN BACK
BY THE SERBS
Greece Reported to Have Yielded, and
No Blockade and No
Ships Seized.
OVERCOME A LARGER FORGE
Athens. Nov. 23. Serbs have re
pulsed the Bulbars who were driving
them southward and have reg-ained
their Yeles-Prilep front, a Serbian offi
cial statement announced today. Serbs
are rushing reinforcements to the
mall bands which, even after the
Uulgars had taken Barbuna pass, con
tinued to defend heights dominating
the western extremity of the Veles
Prilep line.
Tho Serb counter attack which
forced the Bulgars northward followed
a desperate Serbian rally in defense
of Monastir. The Serbs followed
their advantage with furious im-
retuositv. driving the invaders be
fore them mor than twenty miles.
40-Mile Strip Cleared of Invaders.
The stored line places the Serb
right wing in touch with the Franch
before Yeles and clears a thirty to
forty-mile strip of southern Serbia of
the enemy.
Even though Bulgar reinforcements
should compel another Serb retire
ment, the allies are confident now
that an orderly retreat is assured, to-
cether with maintenance of communi
cation between the Serbs. French
and British and elimination of danger
that the Serbs will be forced into Al
bania.
London. Nov. 23. Ten thousand
Bulgars have been killed or wounded
in fighting for Monastir. Bulgars at
tacked the town on Saturday, Sa
Tonika advices say. It was learnei
here today for the first time that the
assault was repuled. Repeated
tailier reports were to the effect
that the town had fallen.
The Serbs, driven southward from
Babuna pass and Prilep, rallied be
"ore Monastir and fought desperately
a V'stj. quarters. The Serbs were
heavily outnumbered, but their reck
Ie courage turned the tide of battle
in their favor. On Sunday the Bul
gars fell back about five miles.
British Go to Monastir.
Monastir will now hold out, it is
believed here. British troops are
pouring in from Salonika to help the
Serbs, big guns are being mounte
and the town's defenses are being
strengthened heavily.
A fresh Bulgar attempt to advance
:r. looked for hourly. The Bulgarians
have been reinforced from the north
lut the Monastir defenders are now
in a strong position.
A Bulgar repul se with the loss o
000 captured is reported at Yodoco
;ut north of Yrania. Previous re
ports indicated that no large Serl
hodv remained in that district. The
French have ben operating in its di
rection, but to have reached it they
mut tave taken Yeles, which has
rot ben claimed, or passed it to the
east.
Geneva, Switzerland. Nov. 23.
Prilep, southern Serbia, captured by
the Bulgars last week on their march
to Monastir, is reported to be burn
ing.
Greece Believed to Have Yielded.
London, Nov. 23. Greece is be
lieved to have yielded sufficiently to
the allies' demands to have obviated
the necessity for coercion. This con
clusion is based on an official foreign
office denial that Greek ships are be
ing seized or detained by the British
or that a blockade of Greek ports has
been established.
If Greece had not promised to re
frain from interference with the al
lies' Balkan campaign, it is assumed
both these steps would have been
taken.
Greeks Pray for Peace.
Greeks are praying that the coun
try may not be involved in war, says
the Daily Mail's Athens correspond
ent.
"We don't want to be another Bel
gium or Serbia," Minister of Justice
D. G. Rhallis is quoted as having said.
"Great Britain's attitude toward us
is infamous. It is starving us, stop
ping our wheat ships and wants to
force us to step in and die when no
English soldiers have shed their blood
in Serbia.
"If the allies are forced to retreat
into Greece they can entrench, and
v.e will even safeguard their retreat.
They will not be interned."
Whether or not Rhallis was speak
ing for King Constantine in saying
this is unknown.
The king, says the correspondent,
it not pro-German, but ha doe not
before tha Teutonic armiea can be
defeated. . France and England, he
thinks, will not deal harshly with his
ountry, bat he fear the Germane if
he should show partiality for the
allies.
Six months ago Constantine offered
to aid the allies if they would give
up the Dardanelles campaign and
start a campaign through Greece in
the Balkans.
The king fears that the allies' block
ade will starve his country within
two weeks unless German submarines
disperse the blockading fleet. Three
submarines are reported to have
been destroyed, but eight others are
said to be near Salonika. They are
all large boats.
ITALY IS NOW
EXERTING PRESSURE
ON GREECE
Gives Warning of Damage Allies Are
Able to Do If Demands Are
Refused.
Rome, Nov. 23. Greece's serious
position, if she defies the allies, was
strongly represented by Foreign Min
ister Sonnino to the Greek minister
today.
In answer to King Constantine's
argument that he cannot risk having
his country overrun by Germany and
her allies, as Belgium and Serbia
have been, the allies are understood
to declare that the Germanic group
cannot accomplish this, while the
allies can make the Greek position im
possible immediately.
Constantine is said to have con
sented to comply with the allies' wish
if they send an adequate force to the
Balkans. The question is what con
stitutes an adequate force.
Allied war vessels are searching
Greek ships, but the blockade is not
yet "airtight."
Cochin to .Meet Constantine Today.
Athens, Nov. 23. Another confer
ence has been arranged between King
Constantine and Denys Cochin.
French emissary, who has personally
looked over the military situation at
Salonika, conferred with the Serb
war minister and is now ready to
show why it will be hopeless for Con
stantine to resist the allies' demands.
The allies do not insist on armed aid
from Greece, but they require assur
ances of a hands-off policy by the
Greeks no matter how the Balkan
fighting may develop.

NOTHING AGAINST
MEN PICKED UP NORTH
OF BMULINGTON DEPOT
From Tuesday's Daily.
This morning the brother and sister
of one of the men who was taken up
here yesterday by the police, came
down from Omaha, where the three
men lived and spent the day here ar
ranging for the release of the man.
The younger of the two men was sent
home yesterday afternoon, and on
reaching that city recounted the plight
that himself and companions had found
themselves when they were gathered
in by the police, and the relatives of
the man who had been held here at
once got busy in trying to discover
some way of getting him out. The
Omaha authorities give the two men
a clean bill as far as being wanted in
that city, and the only charge that
could be placed against them here
would be that of carrying concealed
weapons, but if the men return to the
metropolis and avoid this city it is
probable that they will be released
The third member of the party, who
made good his escape, is also an Oma
ha man and a friend of the other two
men and seems to have been the ring
leader.

Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving haa ever been home-coming time a
day when all of us turn toward the family hearth,
pledging again, in the bounties of nature, those ties

rapidity, and as we pause amidst the tumult, one great thought
must come home to all of us Peace and the bountiful blessirgs
of peace are ours let us be thankful.
This great store of service is moving steadily ahead upon the
highway of progress. Old friends remain steadfastly with us; new
friends, in greater numbers, are coming to know our grpater val
ues, and the satisfaction which comes only from faultless mer
chandise, satisfaction which makes tor tiue thanksgiving on their
part and our satisfaction made possible by such good merchan

GITY EXTENDING THE
SEWERAGE IN WEST PART
From Wednesday's I)aily.
The extension of the private sewer
in the west part of the city has been
gotten under way in fine shape and
already a block from Ninth to Tenth
streets, on Granite, has been placet!,
and from Eleventh street the sewer
will be extended one block north to
Pearl street and thence three blocks
w est on Pearl and two blocks north of
Pearl on Eleventh street, which will
give th.'.t section of the city the most,
deshnble sewerage system that could
be desired for the residence portion
of the city. The cost of this improve
ment has been quite heavy to the
residents there, but they are confident,
that the outlay will be money well
spent.
