in t he was merely travelling to ny hat and had | stopped n Holland to Visit the picture Zaimis Ministry Resigns on Being Defeated, 114 to 147, in the House. A despatch from London says: The Zsimis "neutrality Cabinet" has re- signed, defedted by the pro;war fac- tion in the Greek Parliament headed by ex-Premier Venizelos. A vote of confidence was denied 114 to 147. Tt had been asked by Zaimis as the cli- max to a tilt between the War Min- ister, M. 'Yanakitsas, and Venizelos, the immediate - cause, however, being the latter's opposition to the Govern- ment's foreign policy. The issue between Venizelos and the War Minister was first raised at the 'Chamber's meeting ina 'contro- versy over proposed military lands. Venizelos, considerthg a certain re- mark made by the War Minister as an insult to the national Assembly, demanded an immediate apology. Premier Zaimis. afinounced that M. Yanakitsas had the full backing of the Government. He then asked for a vote of confidence, which was de- nied him by a majority of 33 votes. By handing the resignation of his Cabinet to King Constanfine M. Zai- mis again places on the King the re- sponsibility of deciding the future policy of his country. In London the first impression was that the defeat of the Government would mean "the immediate recall of M. Venizelos and the fulfillment of the original agree- ment between him and the allied pow- ers to go to the assistance of Serbia. te elms RUSSIANS TO USE THE DANUBE ROUTE NOW A' despatch from Rome says: 'The German Minister at Bucharest has formally demanded that two Russian torpedo boats moored in the Danubian | gathered ion that even in official circles the Germans are war sick and in a hurry to finish the con-| flict before Christmas. SERB WOMEN BOMBERS ' CONSTERNATE THE FOE A despatch. from London ' says: "There are nearly 2,000 women in Serbia's army when 1 'left and more women soldiers 'were being organ- ized," said = Dr. Gruitch, a Serbian army doctor now in London. "The women are not in &pécial battalions. Some of them wear the complete uni-{ form "of a soldier for 'the 'sake of{ comfort, while others wear skirts with a blue tunic. The younger women go with their brothers or their husbands. The women are of every class of the population, and we cannot prevent them from serving. They inspire the men, with whom they march side by side, and with whom they eat and serye shoulder to shoulder in the trenches. "These women are not afraid. No- body in Serbia is afraid, and the wo- men in the ranks do not lose their| nerve under fire," a LIFEBOAT BRINGS IN GERMAN SUBMARINE A despatch from The Hague says: A German submarine in distress was towed into Terschelling, a Dutch island in the North Sea, by a Dutch lifeboat.. A Dutch torpedo boat saw the rocket signals sent up by the sub- marine and escorted her to an anchor- age. The undersea boat is being closely guarded. The German submarine, towed into Terschelling, is the U-8. -She had stranded at Noordergrond. ------ ines INVITED KITCHENER TO FIGHT FOR EMPIRE A despatch from London says: Field-Marshal Earl Kitchener, the Secretary of War, has received one of Lord Derby's invitations which have, been largely circulated to men of mili- tary age to join the army. This amazing blunder was disclosed by Lord Derby himself, who, while ad- Outside of the Balkans there have been no notable past week. On the Western front the Germans have have been prodigal of men in their attempts to break the : ; ked at almost every point, and the Western battle-line is absolutely ae On other parts of the Western front there hag been little activity, infantry attacks being almost completely suspended, and the fighting restricted solely" to local artillery duels. On the Isonzo front the Italians have won difficult positions from the Austrians, and their offensive con- tinues successfully. As a result of statements made. in the British House of Commons and the French Chamber of Deputies, the situation in the Balkans has been made somewhat more plain. Both Great Britain and France are deter- mined to do their utmost to save Serbia, and the landing of troops continues steadily at Saloniki. troops are also reported to have:-been landed at Kavala. On the Southern front in Serbia, the French and British troops have met and defeated the Bulgarians, and 'driven them across the frontier. Further north, however, the Bulgars have made considerable progress, and are now bombarding Nish, the capture of which is imminent. The Serbs are offering heroes Tesistance, even the women joining in the fight against the invader. Austro-German forces on the northern front are making slow progress, and are waging a 'war of extermi- nation, A Serbian force has been: despatched to deal with the Albanians, who are also attacking. If the Serbian army can hold out for a short time yet, the Anglo-French forces are likely to join hands with them, and check the invading armies, before' Serbia is entirely overrun.
