FORMATION OF BALKAN LEAGUE OFFER TO BULGARIA. USE OF ALL HARBOURS. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, December 26. The Ankara radio, appealing for the formation of a United League of Balkan Peoples, declared that Turkey is willing to place all its harbours at the disposal of Bulgaria and added that the first condition in the founding of the league would be the inviolability of the members’ frontiers. Budapest reports that it is estimated that 300,000 Russians are alert on the Bessarabian border. Diplomatic circles say that the Germans in Rumania may total 500,000. The Bucharest correspondent of the Associated Press of Great Britain states that the police are reported to be investigating two train crashes in which seven persons were killed and scores injured. Sabotage is suspected. The Rumanian railways are carrying specially heavy traffic as a result of German military trains moving in from Hungary in great numbers.
