This was thewesult of a \er\ successful and forceful, drive* by the British Army under General Allenby. and Bulgaria rather than hare Her country overriden and her armies cut to pieces, decided to sever her connections with the Ger man war alliance. This was done, r.nd now the news reaches this coun try that Turkey Is likely to follow the example of Bulgaria, and pos sibly Austria will follow. The war condition looks most optimistic, and the ghances are that further victories Ih the Western front may bring some decisive re sult beforV it la expected. v General Foch is directing a most successful campaign J against the German forcee on the Western front.
