Believed to Be Headed for Italian or Belgian Front.
London, Dec. 6.—Reports have reached here from Bucharest that three Bulgarian divisions crossed Hungary en route to the Italian or Western front, which, if true, would seem to indicate that Bulgaria does not fear a Russian invasion.
Reports of such a shift of forces on the part of the Bulgarians are as vague, however, as the report that Austro-German troops had been rushed from the other quarters eastward to face the new Russian menace.
Dispatches from several sources assert that both the Northern and Southern Serbian armies are safely established in Albania, while forces of the Serbs, who evidently formed part of the defenders of Monastir, have reached the French camp at Gevgeli, in Serbian territory, near the Greek frontier, not far from Saloniki.
A feeling of optimism over the Near Eastern situation seems to be growing here, but outwardly there is little to justify it except on the theory that the Russian onslaught against Bulgaria will quickly crystallize, while entente diplomatic negotiations in Greece again seem to be progressing favorably.
