BULGARIA MOBILISED

GREAT STIR IN THE BALKANS EXOTMENT I GREECE THE ATTACK ON: SERBIA VIOLENT' BOMBARDMENT ' BRILLIANT TACTICS RUSSIAN VILNA "ARMY CLEVERLY ./ : EXTRICATED

'As was reported from Washington yesterday, the Bulgarian Array has been mobilised, and a policy of "armed neutrality" has been declared as a safeguard against all eventualities. The news' has caused excitement in Greece, while-political tension in the Balkans generally is acuto. The Austro-German attack on Serbia consists at present of a violent bombardment of the Serbs' northern line. .There is very little news from Gallipoli—of fresh developments, that is to say. The Turks claim to have destroyed two of the Allies' guns at Arc Burner; details' •of the exploits of British submarines in the Sea of Marmora during August .show that by the sinking of Turkish transports the enemy lost; severely in troops. The most brilliant exploit of the war, according to a message from Petrograd, is the. achievement of the Russian army'on the Vilna front;in extricating itself, by clover tactics, from a ' most .dangerous position, and clearing its Tine of retreat by engaging the enemy on two. fronts/ The operations in ' the Western tlieatro ■seem to be confined; chiefly to exploits 'by the airmen.' The fog of .war still lies thickly over the Italian theatre.
