(Special to the Whig.) Oct The resignation of Premier Venizelos will not stop the landing of Allied troops for the defence of Serbia, it was stated offi- cially here this afternoon Turkish are moving toward the Bulgarian border to hands with Bulgaria, according to despatches received here to-day. More French troops, it is reported here, are being landed at Salonika to-day, though the War Office has not confirmed this statement. The Allies, it was officially intimated, count upon the support of the Greek people in their efforts to prevent the Bulgarian Czar from dominat- ing the Balkans. Paris, 6 troops join May Be Forced to Reconsider Resignation. Official circles cling te the belief that the Greek Chamber will refuse to accept the new ministry, and that Venizelos will be forced to reconsider his resignation. "The resignation of Premier Venizelos, even if persisted in, cannot « affect the interests of Greece nor stop the landing of troops by the Allies for the assistance of Serbia," it was stated. "The troops were enthusiastically acclaimed by the Greeks, who un- derstand their cause is the Allies' cause, and that their cause will be de- fended in any even against Bulgarian enterprise. The Greek nation in- tends to remain faithful to its engagements." Resignation of Cabinet Accepted. (Special to the Whig.) Athens, Oct. 8.-- The formal resignation of the Venizelos Cabinet was promptly accepted by King Constantine, who is willing to go to almost any extreme to insure Greece against any aggressive act by Bulgaria, but does not wish to array Greece against Germany and Austria, it was stated here to-day, in explanation of his disagreement with Premier Venizelos. Mobilization of the Greek armies will continue, and a close watch will be kept on the Serbo-Bulgarian developments. © The King, however, feared gertain steps being undertaken by the Venizelos Ministry were lead- _ ing the nation into an open alliance with France and England. i It is stated here that Roumania has mobilized and is established on | the Bulgarian frontier. I : | French Announcement Causes Sensation. (Special to the Whig.) London, Oct. 6.--Official announcement from the French Govern- ment that the sudden overthrow of the Greek ministry will not halt her armies in their mareh toward Serbia, caused the greatest sensation in to- } day's complicated Balkan situation. Officials here would hot discuss the French statement or attempt to place a construction upon it. In some quarters it was taken to mean that France had been informed that the movement of her troops would not be interfered with by the Greek King. In others it was construed as a defi to King Constantine. REEK CHAMBER PASSES A VOTE OF CONFIDENCE (Special to the Whig} Athens, Oct. § (via London).--After Premier Venizelos had explained to the Chamber of Deputies the circumstances connected with the landing of Allied trops at Salonika, the chamber passed a vote of confidence in the Government. The vote was 142 to 102, with thirteen members not vot- ing. . The Opposition leaders attacked the premier bitterly. They accus- ed him of unnecessarily leading the country into the war on the side of the Allies. : ' The chamber was in session all night, adjourning at 4.30 this morn- ing. : Premier Venizelos accused the Opposition press of "selling its honor PETROGRAD'S ONE REGRET Ultimatum To Bulgaria Was Sent Earlier. Petrograd, Oct, 6.-- Russia's ulti- matum to Bulgaria is strongly ap proved here. The only regret is that the step was not taken earlier It was believed here that the note might possibly open the eyes of the Bulgarian people. As the Novo Vrem ya said: "When the Bulgarian scl- diers see the windows of the Rus sian Legation nailed up they will re cognize what calamitous adventure their Government has been leading them into. Russians consider it in crediable that the mass of Bulgar- | lans could approve of 'a war wages {on the side pf. Turkey and agains Russia, who liberated the Bulgar ians from the Turkish yoke and brought the Bulgarian State into be- ing." gin The Retch, whose editor, M. Miliu { koff, is one of the chief Russian au- thorities on the Balkan question, has throughout advocated a policy or ex- treme toleration for Bulgaria and of patient consideration for Bulgarian national claims, but now the Retch admits that further toleration would be sheer remissness and . declares: "The future of this unhappy land, Bulgaria is shrouded in gloom, and | we do not doubt that the authors of this national catastrophe, which far exceeds the calamities of 1913, are now fated to be the objects of hatred of their mortified contemporaries in the courses of posterity." No repressive measures will, be taken against Bulgarians living in Russia and every effort will be made to show that the displeasure of the Russian Government directed against the Sofia Government and not against the Bulgarian people. Many Bulgarians are serving as vol- unteers in the Russian army and eci- vilian Bulgar residents in Petrograd and Moscow already are expressing their desire to become Russian sub | jects and fight in the Russian cause.

Dissensions in Greek Cabinet. - {Special to the Whig.) London, Oct. 6.---Despatches from Athens this morning say the entire Greek Cabinet has resigned to-day. Censored messages declare that Veni- zelos quit not because of trouble with King Constantine, but because of dis- sension in his own Cabinet. The French Cabinet met in extra- ordinary session this morning to deal with the situation. Greeted French Troops. (Special to Paris, Oct.6. the Whig.) -Balonika despatches reported that the: French troops were greeted enthusiastically on their arrival at that Greek port. "Greek officials and the populace' greeted the French troops as allies, and in the same manner in which the French received the British troops | upon their arrival at Boulogne," it was stated.

Night Clubs Are a Danger to London London, Oct. 6. --The night club scandal is still engaging the atten- tion of the London press, which is urging the Government to take ac- tion. The Bishop of London, in a letter to the Times, states that he has placed before the authorities evi- dence collected by the London Coun- cil for the promotion of public mor- ality, which evidence cpnvinces him that the continued existence of these | clubs is a danger to the capital of the Empire at war. A Times editorial asserts there are between 150 and 200 of these clubs. in Soho, w constitute a crying evil. The Pall Mall.

What Russians Note Of Giant Aero plane Capture. Petrograd, Oct. 6.--The Russians recently brought down three aero- planes, among them one which prov- ed to be a rare prize, namely the newest pattern German machine, which several times has 'been seen on the western-front. The Russians have christened this novel machine "Two Tails". On examination it proved to be nothing very alarming. t is little more than a German ver- sion of the Russian Sikorsky. i "Two Tails" is armored and has twin engines of the Albatross or Mer cedes static motor type--175 h p. be tween the two bodies, and raised above them is the pilot's place, alsc armored. The machine carries six men and nearly a ton of ammunition for one light quick-firing gun and two maxims. The crew consists of a pilot, a mechanic, and observation officer and three artillery men.

The Minister of Militia spoke; and addresses were also given by Col. T. D. R. Hemming, W. F. Nickle, { M.P., and Lieut.-Col. H. J. Dawson, 0. C. 59th Battalion \ The scene of the presentation was very martial, being on the parade ground of the battalion, with the long line of tents as a background. A platform and a.long line of benches | were placed at the south of the par- ade ground, and the visitors watch- ed the ceremony from behind a large Union Jack. The wind blowing across the field made the air rather cool, but the threatening rain did not come, and everything went off splen- | didly. The battalion was drawn up form- nig three sides of a. square, while the | large crowd of visitors formed the | fourth. The Minister of Militia, ac- companied by Col. T. D. R. Hemming |and other officers, made a minute in- spection of the battalion, walking {along the line, the Minister paying | close attention to every man. After the party had returned to the plat- | form, the brass and bugle bands of | the battalion marched across the field playing martial airs. The colors had previously been placed on three drums directly op- | posite to the platform, but on the | other side of the field. Mrs. Wal- | ron and Capt. the Rev. 8.

Dawson and were taken by { Lieuts. Barber and Donald, who offi- | ciated as standard-bearers. - { ~The battalion came to attention, {and the band played "God Save the { King."

I am proud to recall that the 59th Battalion is virtually two battalions, as 1,100 men are now overseas, and there are again over 1.200 men in the ranks This is a splendid rec- ord considering that the battalion was organized only on June 21st | last. I congratulate Col. Dawson and his officers, and I doubt if any | battalion that has been trained in { Canada -will do better work at the front. I know that you are capable of doing and have dope to my know- | ledge, eighteen, twenty and twenty two mile marches without a man fall- ing out.
