Emmett Clarke, has made a notable record in connection with the transport work of the British Ad- miralty, ill sending over 104,000 Calla- dian forces overseas without the lfns of a single man, and practically`_wltb§-‘ out a single hitch in regard to' coin- missarlut arrallgenleiits for troops en route. _ ~ » Out of all the men who have gone overseas, there was only one casualty reported during transport. and that

The war of the Balkans, now en-

LONDON. Nov. 29.-The Greek sit-

respondent says, are strongly Insist- ing that tllc question of.Thrace has not been definitely settled, and that with Gernlnny's support Turkey in Europe should be replaced within the limits in which she was confined in 1911.

Tho correspolulellt adds: ` “If thc misunderstanding on this

subject continues and, in view of the recent speech made by Premier Ru- tlosiavolf of Bulgaria, in which he de- clared tliat Thrace should be Bulgar- ian, the prophecy of ex-Premier Veni- zelos of Greece may yet be realized and the Bulgarians in the end may be found fighting on the side of those they formerly attacked.”

NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-- The Lon-

don correspondent of The Ti-ibuuc sends the following interview with Reginald McKenna, Cllullcellor of the Exchequer.

“I am absolutely convinced that

victory for the Allies is assured," ,Mr. McKenna is quoted ns saying. “The whole world profoundly ad- mires tlle enormous efforts made by the Russslans, French and Italians in this war, as well as our smaller allies. The sacrifices are conspicuous jand interesting which have been im- _posed on Germany. Austria~Hungsry 'and Turkey.
