23 SEPTEMBER 1916, Page 1

We are glad to say that during the week the

Serbians by dint of very fine fighting have obtained a decided military superiority over

the Bulgarians in the Monastir region. In Thursday's Morning Post is published a statement by the Charge d'Affaires at the Serbian Legation to a representative of that paper, which is well worth quoting in this context :— " You may very easily understand our satisfaction in knowing that i the Sorbian Army is again on its native soil. We Serbians are greatly hopeful, as we always have been, and now more than ever, that our country will not only be cleared of the enemy, but that we shall soon realize the attainment of the unity of our race. Wo shall rejoice still more when our Army gets to Uskub."
