THE SALONIKA FRONT.
A special report from the Macedonian front states that tho Franco-Greek forces aro actively consolidating the new positions, okradilegan was brilliantly carried during Thursday's advance. Prisoners, who now number 1712, do not conceal their admiration for the masterly attack on positions hitherto regarded as impregnable. The captured positions consist of the first and second lines, the latter of which dominates the third enemy organisation. The new lines extend for 12 kilometres in length, with a depth of two kilometres, lno success is undoubtedly the biggest since the capture of Monastir. Several Bulgar counter-attacks on 'the 21st of May were frustrated by barrage fire.
