ATHENS, Oct. 18.—The Bulgarians
have been badly beaten in the first
conflict with the Serbs according to
the latest announcements from the
scene of the great battle along the east
Serbian frontier commencing Satur
di y With the assistance of allied
forces the Serbs have completely re
pulsed the Bulgarian attack at Val
aiiavo and turned their advnnce into
a precipitate retreat beyond their own
borders. The timely arrival of the
allied troops of Britain and Trance
at the psychological moment when the
Serbian struggle with forty thousand
newly arrived Bulgarians still hung
in the balance has dramatic qualities
which for the moment have turned
away attention from the other war
fronts and completely eclipses all
military exploits of the war. The Bul
garians are said to have received a
shattering blow.

BRITISH HAVE GERMANS
BOTTLED OH BALTIC
A. P. A. Service.
COPENHAGEN, Oct. IS.—The Brit
ish submarines have now cleared the
Baltic and the gulf of Bothnia of all
German commercial steamers, accord
ing to all indications and every Ger
man ship that was on its way from
south Swedish ports when the pres
ent submarine actions started has
either been sunk or forced to run
ashore. The majority of the German
vessels were engaged In carrying iron
from the Swedish mines to German
ports and the traffic is completely
suspended as far as known.
It Is definitely known that of a total
of fifty German steamers carrying that
metal and metal ore from Sweden b
Germany, thirty-seven are now in
terned In Swedish ports fully loade
and are under orders to remain thert
for the present. It is indicated thal
the Germans are causing the vessels tt
lay up until some scheme can be de
vised to convoy them home in safety
Tills belief is partially substantiated
by the reported activity of the war
fleet which is said to have heen out
Uing at the several Baltic naval stn
tions The scheme apparently is for
the German warships to attempt to
bring the ore fleet to Germany. It is
generally accepted here that if the im
portation of metal and ore Is complete
ly stopped the Germans will be placed
| in a most dangerous position owing
to a lack of material for the manu
facture of ammunition and general
supplies. It is generally Indicated that
Germany has been depending on Swed
en for a large portion of her metal
j supplte and the cutting off of Import
jatlons will result in a most criticrl
situation.
