London, Oct, 12.--A party of munition workers who inspected the Britisn armies in Flanders accom panied by the parliamentary unde: secretary for home affairs, Wi liga Brace, and who recently returned say in. their report of their exper fences: There is bitter and widespread re sentment among the officers and men ail the front at the constant appear- ance in certain newspapers of artic les discouraging the efforts this country is making. The men who have endured, and will endure, the worst hardships, and are campaign- ing with positive cheerfulness, are sickened at the persistent deprecis | tion of what they are ' doing out { there, and what the givil popu ation) {is doing at home 16. carry on the! { war." Concerning munitions, the views |are thus summed up: "The supply of shells must not be merely libera!, | but unlimited." ¥ | The report adds: "As regards the German position in this respect, we were repeatedly told, and could also see for ourselves, that their expedi | ture of she ls was out of al} propor | tion to ours. Their supplies must | be enormous. The reasonless way in which they shelled one well-known {town afforded a striking example." ! Tho necessity for doing the best possible in all departments of mun} | tion works is emphasized. "All im {ported supplies," .says the report, | "require the most careful inspection. All work by unskilled labor needs feiose and skilled supervision." { PEPE PPPPPPPEP SEPP SPER EPS Ie < {# _ 218T BATTALION RESTS. # | 9 -- - {# Word has been received that + {% the 21st Battalion, which went % | %_ into the trenches on Sept. 19th, + {% came out on Sept. 29th for a {% rest.

Just, who recently made a special tyip* through Russia for the Department of Trade and Commerce looking into Cana- dian trade opportunities, in a report just published states that improve- | ment in the Trans-Siberian line, jn- cluding reduced through rates on merchandise shipped from American Pacific point via Vladivostok, give most encouraging" prospeéts for the developments of a large Canadian trade with Russian interior points, The old German sources of supply. he states, have been stopped, and there is every desire in Russia to trade with Allied countries. The | progressive settlement of eastern Si-| beria insures a growing demand for agricultural machinery and imple- ments. for dairying appliances, flour mill equipment, tools, hardware, ete. With regard to fruit, importing houses at Vladivostok speak encour- agingly of the prospects for opening up a trade with British Columbia in | apples and pears. GERMANY'S SECOND LINE. Strong and Diversified, But Without the Labyrinths. Paris, Oct. 12.--A French official statement describes the second line of the German offences, which the Allied forces are now confronting in Champagne, as extremely strong and diversified, but not containing the labyrinths and succession of parallel trenches of the first ling of defence. Another difference is that the sec- ond line almost throughout -has been dug in such a manner as to escape observation from the ground. Hill- tops are provided at intervals with machine-guns commanding the slopes. Behind the hilltops are dou- ble networks of barbed wire covered with briers mountéd on iron stakes. Such a position, the statement adds, requires a preliminary recon- naisance and methodical prepara- tions for attacks. Greeks Expect Allies Victory - in Dardanelles Athens, Oct. 12.--All the pessi- mism prevalent of late with regard to the issue of the struggle at the Dar- danelles seems to. be disappearing, | and, with the exception of a certain press which devotes all its efforts to | discrediting the Allies; the Athens ! newspapers look upon the fall of the | Sndarstond, is slated for the appoint. | ~~~ Dardanelles as a foregone conclusion. The Messager d'Athenes, the official organ of the Ministry for Foreign Af- fairs, gives prominence to a high op- timistic report received from its cor- respondent at Mitylene. The corre- spondent, who is usually well in- formed, says that since the beginning of September great activity has been { noticeable among the Allies' forces; and the operations at the Straits | seefn to be entering a decisive phase.

Rotterdam, Oct. 12. The Cologne Gagette says: "We understand no ar- i rangement has been made with Rou- i mania, and no negotiations are going on with that object. The people are | inclined to Delieve Roumania in the | future, jost itherto, will continue lto refuse to thansport war material | for and Turkey." Also to Cut Off the Railway Communi- cations of the Allies. (Special to the Whig.) | London, Oct. 12.-- Bulgaria's at- tack on Servia has begun. The Bul- garians crossed the frontier, said the Londen Times' message at Garibog- haz, near the Servian city of Kniaz- hevatz, Kniazhevatz is about thirty miles from Nish, Servia's temporary capi- tal which on the railway the al-| lies must traverse from Salonika Thus the Bulgarians are striking both at the Servian Governmental headquarters and at the Ailies' lines of communication Germans Making No Progress.

Along the Danube the Serbians re pulsed all the attacks between the The Balkans the Weak Spot For the Allies Paris, Oct. 12.--The French suc cesses in the Champagne and the es- capes of the Russian armies from"en- | velopment have compelled Germany and Austria to seek the Balkan field | of effort toward the accomplishment of decisive results, as well as for the ! attempt to break through the ring oi | the Allies. This is the opinion of | both diplomatic and military officials. 4 Europe is one, vast theatre of war | and the Allies are now maintaining effective German , through Italy to the south and through Russia to the east, Thus the only one weak spot, it is pointed out here, is in the Balkans. This is believed to be one of the chief reasons for the extent of the! Austro-German movement to force a way to Constantinople and the routes leading to the Orient, as well as for the counter movements of the Allies in landing large forces at Saloniki, interposing a barrier across this path of exit. Silver Coinage Scarce. London, Oct. 12.--The country is faced with a serious shortage of sil- ver, although the opinage minted siifice the war began is valued at | about $30,000,000. The shortage is ascribed chiefly to the quantity of dilver used in paying the soldiers. The Mint is being urged tp. increase th oO! f silver bullion has a circulation val ue of £100 when coined.
