[" Sherbrooke Daily Record.Established 1897 SHERBROOKE QUE., SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4; 1915 ONE CENT RUSSIANS TAKE TWELVE MILES OF TRENCHES WEST OF RICA * \" Capture 700 Prisoners and Large Quantity of Munitions and Food Supplies.Bulgarian Attack at Strumitza Silenced by British Guns.Persistent Report That Russian Troops Have Entered Bulgaria.Fall of Monastir Has Evoked Considerable Resentment in Greek Circles, Says Saloniki Report.RUSSIANS TAKE TWELVE MILES OF TRENCHES Condon, Dec.4.\u2014 ( Special)\u2014 The Russians have taken twelve miles ot trenches, 700 prisoners and a large quantity of munitions and food supplies on the Tukum road west of Riga, according to a despatch from Geneva to the Exchange Telegraph Company.ALLIES HOLD UP GREEK SHIPS Entente Powers Bring Pressure to Bear and to Force Answer to Demands BRITISH GUNS SILENCE ATTACK BY BULGARIANS London, Dec.\t4.\u2014 (Spécial) \u2014 A Reuter despatch from Saloniki says: \"The Bulgarians shelled yesterday the British left on the Strumitza front, but soon were silenced by British guns.Otherwise nothing occurred on the Allied fronts.British troops disembarked yesterday.\u201cNo details have been received re-ipeeting the occupation of Monastir.Although it is doubtful whether the Austro-Germans entered the town in force, the fall of the city has evoked considerable resentment in Greek circles.\u201cReport persists that Russian troops have entered Bulgaria, where, according to news received here, the people have already had enough of war.\u201cThree German spies, disguised as Serbian gendarmes, were shot yes- terday.\u2019\u2019- SMALL BAND SAVED MAIN SERBIAN ARMY London, Dec.4.\u2014 (Special) \u2014Mon-astir became untenable for the Serbs on Thursday, when the Bulgarians occupied.Kanali, on the railway between the Macedonian capital and the Greek frontier, cutting off Serbian retreat to the south, says the Saloniki correspondent of the Times.Col.Vassitch\u2019s army now Is retiring eastward oyer the only route left open.Much of the credit for the long and heroic defence of the town is given to Col.Boyaditch, who placed himself at the head of 400 irregulars, who gallantly held back the advancing Bulgare whenever it became neceesary for the main Serb forces to retire.This small hand of Ooma-tadjis greatly troubled the Bulgare by its extreme mobility and knowledge of every inch of the ground The impression was given that the Serb force was much more numerous than really was the case, but during incessant day and night fighting the brave four hundred lost so heavily that by Tuesday only 100 remained.By their stubborn resistance, however, they had saved the main Serbian anny.RAIN INTERFERES WITH OPERATIONS ON FRENCH FRONT rfs, Dec.4.2.30 p.m.(Special) \u2014 report from the War Office this noon follows: he night was relatively calm, e shells of large calibre were disced to the east of Grenay and ic region of Sapigneul.We ex->.d successfully a mine near Vau- mrentin.1 rains Interfered cry fighting.\u201d with BULGARS PLAN TO ATTACK FRENCH AND BRITILH London, Dec.4.\u2014The second phase of the Balkan campaign is developing | slowly.It is expected, however, that; with the conclusion of the operations against Serbia and the occupation of Monastir, the whole Bulgarian army, when the weather permits, will attempt to drive the British and French forces out of Southern Serbia, while the Austrians continue their efforts to overrun Montenegro, and the Germans, with the aid of the Turks, and what Bulgarians and Austrians can be spared, turn their attention to the Russians, who again are reported to have entered Rumanian territory on their way to Bulgaria.| GERMAN FORCE FOR GALLIPOLI.| A report from France that part of; the German army is going to the Gallipoli Peninsula to assist the Turks in a great effort to drive the Entente Allies from the Peninsula is hardly credited in military circles here, where it is not believed that they can spare the men, guns and ammunition for such a venture.The Turks, it is said, have been displaying more activity recently in the Dardanelles, but this they are believed to have been doing more with ammunition which they have been collecting during the quiet period than with any fresh supplies from Germany.CONCENTRATION OF GERMANS ON DANUBE.Rustchuk, on the Danube, west of the Rumanian border, in the opinion of well-advised persons here, is to be the point of concentration for the Germans, both as warning to Rumania that it would be dangerous for her to join the Entente Allies, and to meet any Russian advance.SPECULATION AS TO GREECE.There is conflict in the speculation here regarding the position of Greece.Some despatches say a satisfactory agreement has been reached between the Entente Allies and the Hellenic Kingdom, while others aver that the situation is so satisfactory that the ! Entente Allies have re-established their restrictions on Greek commerce.; OTHER FRONTS QUIET.There have been no important developments on the Russian, Italian, or French fronts, although the Italians claim some minor successes in their campaign against the Austrians.MUCH PEACE TALK.Naturally, much interest is display-j ed in the peace talk emanating from! neutral countries and the proposed debate in the Reichstag next week, when the Imperial Chancellor is to be asked whether he Is prepared to state the terms on which Germany would suggest placing the question of the future of Europe in the hands of diplomats.From neither the press nor the public does the talk of ending the war find any encouragement.The daily newspapers and the weekly reviews, in discussing the matter, reiterate that the war must continue until Germany is defeated.ECONOMIC MEASURES WHICH WERE USED WTITH EFFECT TWO WEEKS AGO AGAIN APPLIED.Paris, Dec.4.\u2014 (Special) \u2014The Entente Powers consider that Greece is taking too long to reflect upon the answer to their demands, and have decided to apply again the economic measures which were used with such effect a fortnight ago, says the Figaro.The newspaper declares that orders have been given prohibiting the departure from Allied ports of all ships with cargoes consigned to Greece, and stopping immediately the loading of Greek vessels.PUBLIC OPINION VEERING TOWARDS ALLIES.Athens, Dec.4.\u2014 (Special) \u2014Public opinion is veering towards the fullest acceptance of the demands of the Entente Powers.While the Government is hesitating in framing its reply, thousands of refugees are arriving at Fiorina after tramping through deep snow from Monastir.All buildings are crowded and hundreds are without shelter.Children are dying from hunger and exposure.The municipal treasury has been emptied and appeals for aid have been made to Athens.Princess Demidoff is expected to head the relief work at Saloniki.BERLëN SAYS ALLIES GET GRECIAN MACEDONIA FOR WAR BASE.London, Dec.4.\u2014 (Special) \u2014\u201cVirtually the whole of Grecian Macedonia has been handed over to the Allies as a war base,\u201d says the Berlin Tageblatt, as quoted in a Copenhagen despatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company.\u201cGreece has agreed to give the Allies free use of the railway in this territory, as well as of the Aegean harbors, including Kavala.Greece declines, however, to disarm troops of the Central Powers is they pursue Allied troops on Grecian territory.\u201d The Tageblatt also is credited with the statement that the Central Powers have offered Greece southern Albania and islands in the Aegean on condition that she decline to grant certain demands of the Allies and remain neutral.For Civic Improvement Platform ARREST MADE CARE FOUND AT\t\u201cNOT GUILTY (ARTICLE I.)\tI On October 29th the Civic Improvement Committee of the Sherbrooke Board of Trade announced their platform.The chairman and members of the committee were con-1 gratulated when the report was presented\u2014it is safe to assume that not.; one single citizen with the right use ! of his senses denied the necessity ofl the few essential improvements demanded.Perhaps the greater major-; Ity felt that there were not half en ; ough improvements asked for, per- ! haps a few thought that instead of limiting the request for paving to Wellington street from the Court House to King street, they should | have asked for it right to the G.T.R.station.Perhaps those interested in the industrial district felt that the most disgraceful condition of Drummond street should have received attention, perhaps parties whose cellars have been flooded would have liked strong demands regarding the, sewage system.All these additional improvements DO need attention, but the object of the committee was to ! ask for so little that it could not i possibly be refused,\u2014to ask for im-j provements whose realization was' imperative,\u2014to make their demands so reasonable that to overlook them i would be to raise the indignation of every clear thinking citizen.So much for the platform as it was adopted and heartily endorsed.What we shall now discuss, and what is far more important, is ITS REALIZATION.It is now about a month since the platform was announced.How many citizens who read it, 'and who perhaps said it was a good idea, remember what was asked for ?What has been done since on the part of the citizens individually to help in its realization ?When you say repeatedly as you pass through Wellington street, \u201cisn\u2019t this shameful ?\u201d Will that help ?When you cross the street and sink your shoes in mud, will those thoughts (?) that you THINK, will they change the situation ?No, neither words nor thoughts will avail anything.Nothing but ACTION will realize the civic improvement platform.How can you act ?You can convince yourself and your friends that the only way to get these improvements is to force your representatives.You can turn out to the meetings where these improvements are discussed, and support the movement by your presence.Finally, you can VOTE.In January, four new aldermen will he elected.Be sure they are men who will ACT in the desired direction.Let us get a start along right lines and we will soon make big strides.The platform makes a start in practically all branches of civic improvement.A few feet of paving on Wellington street will make it easy to get more elsewhere.Doing away with those unwholesome sewers near the East Sherbrooke and Wolfe street bridges will be a start in looking after public health.The slides for winter will be a start in the playground movement, and so on.Let\u2019s get started\u2014it\u2019s up to you to start\u2014to act\u2014you are just as responsible as your neighbor.CIVIC IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE.Each request in the platform will he dealt with in separate articles to appear later.Warren Whitehead Charged Second Man in Capelton Mnr-With the Murder of der

appointing a successor to General Joffre in command of the armies on the French front, according to the Journal.In reply to an inquiry from the army Committee of the Chamber, as to what would be the effect of the creation of the new post of commander-in-chief of all the French armies except those in Africa, to which General Joffre has been appointed, M.Briand is quoted as having said: \u201cThe sole object of the extended powers of the General is to insure singleness of direction in military operations, which has become more necessary than ever now, and at the same time to establish close co-ordination between the command of our armies and the technical councils of the Allies, which will be held at Grand Headquarters.\u201d EXPULSiGN OF CONSPIRATORS Recall ofCapt- VonPapen and Capt

editorial with the remark, \u201cGood Riddance,\u201d while the World is equally vigorous after chiding President Wilson for \u201cleaning over backwards\u201d in his neutrality policy.WILL ASK FOR
