London, July 1.-THE Roumanian
declaration of war on Bulgaria is ex-
pected here to assist in bringing an
end. the carnage in the Balkans by
forcing speedy action on the part of
the powers who have been invited to
intervene. The object Of King Charles
Of Roumania in assuming the part of
a belligerent is to strengthen Rouma-
MAS claim to participate in the shar-
ing territory in the Balkans. For the
present Roumania is thought she will
probably cotent herself with occupying
the strip of Bulgarian territory from
Sturtukai on the Danube to Baltchik
on the Black Sea including the city
of Silistria. She has coveted this for
a long time and it is believed she will
accomplish her object under the pre-
vailing conditions without Bulgarian
resistance.
