LONDON, Nov. 2. Public interest
is divided today between Premier

of Paris lends support to the grow

By royal decree new classes of Rou
manian recruits are being mobilised.
Vienna reports that "a grave situation"
may arise between Austria and Rou
manla in connection wit! tne proposed
uso of the lower Danube to transport
Russian troops to Bulgaria. Little news
comes direct from Bucharest, as the cen

The English publlo awaits with keen

Teutons Will Get
Copper Supplies
from Serb Mines
LONDOX, Nov. I Oermany and Aus
tria are likely to obtain ample supplies
of copper from Serbia, according to
Chedo Miyatovich, former Serbian min
ister to London. The great copper mines
probably are the beat in Europe and a
junction recently was made between
Oerman and Bulgarian troops operating
In the district where they are located.
There also are' anthracite coat mines In
the Tlmok valley.
M. Miyatovich, in a statement to the
Standard,' says the Serbian army can
hold out in the mountains for a month
longer and that the invaders are likely
to find little booty in a country ex
hausted by years of warfare, except
what they take from the copper and gold
fields.

The general 'Italian' offensive,
which has- been in progress for a
fortnight, has been met successfully
by i,b Austrtans; the War toff ice ar
nouncea, and la heglnnlsg to decline.
ThrartnotLnceinent says: .
"The third Italian attack agalptY our
ooastal . fronts frhioh begaa. on -October
U, and was renewed with, fresh troops
on October 28, begins to fall.
"The enemy advanced on Sunday
against the - northern edge of the lofty
Doberdo ' plateau ' with strong forces
which, - however, were weak at several
points. The attack was intermittent and
no longer general. Though the battle may
again flame up the attempted offensive
on the main front with at least Twenty
five Infantry divisions (300,000 men) which
the Italian command .announced with
brave words, has collapsed on the un
shakable wall of our victorious troops.
"On the Isonso front the battle of a
fornlght's duration represents a gain for
our army. Our front throughout la un
changed. Likewise the defenders of the
Tyrol and Carlnthlan fronts retained
firmly the posltltions they have hero
ically held since the beginning ' of the
war.
"Through theses successes our army
had proved again how Idle and untenable
are all the claims of our erstwhile ally
to the southwest frontier territory which
he thought he was able to conquer by
a treacherous attack In the rear.
"In the battles of the second half of
October the enemy lost at least I&O.Oia)
