BelteDe Germans
Are Movfng 10 Easf

ANTWERP. Sept. Sword reached
here today by courier from Liege
that the German governor has forbid
den any Of the Belgian inhabitants to
leave their houses for the next three
days. II Is believed certain here that
this means an important movement
of German troops eastward through
Belgium is beginning. Belgian secret
agents report the Germans are great
ly troubled over the failure OF Aus
tria to hold the Russians In the east.
II had been expected Austria would
prevent any general Russian advance
for at least seven weeks, but 1t is
now admitted the Austrian army has
been practically annihilated.
The railroads through Belgium are
now guarded by German marines and
by sailors of the regular naval re-
serve. This Is construed here to
rhean that the last German strength
is now In the field. II Is considered
likely the warships have been
stripped OF their marines. This would
be a natural action as the marines
have no part In lighting the ships
and their being utilized to reinforce
the land troops would In no way In
terfere with the effectiveness OF the
feet from the fighting point OF view.
Many members OF the landstrum
have also made their appearance In
Belgium, relieving the first line Of
troops heretofore In service here.

BUCHAREST. Roumania, Sept. g.
The effort Of Emperor Francis Joseph
to secure the support Of Roumania In
the present war has failed. The
diplomacy OF the Russians has won.
IL Roumania takes part In the pres
ent general war II will be with Servia
and Montenegro and against Germany
and Austria.
This is admitted here today and 1t
Is also considered certain Bulgaria
Will follow the example OF Roumania
In any future action. In fact. thfs is
declared already to have been ar
ranged In q series OF communications
between the Roumanian and the Bull
garian foreign Offices.
There Is q general feeling here that
Austria, no matter what the outcome
OF the war, fs certain to lose q good
part OF her territory. II is also con.
sidered certain that Roumania will
receive Bukovina as her price for
either passive or active support Of the
Russian cause. This belief permeates
all classes and as result every In.
timation of a Russian victory Is re-
ceived throughout all Roumania with
demonstrations of wild enthusiasm,
There has always been intense hat
red OF Austria through racial reasons
and this is having its effect with the
royal family.
Bulgaria had agreed to assist Ger,
many In the war. So far had the
agreement gone that German officers
had been sent to assist the Bulgarian
army which was To be commissioned
to subdue Servia. When news OF this
development reached Petrograd the
GEAR sent a personal aide to see his
hereditary godson. Prince Boris. The
latter was shown the entire plans OF
campaign. especially those that related
to the Austrian cause. So startling
were these revelations. II h stated
especially regarding the total unpre
paredness Of the Austrian army. that
Prince Boris promptly vetoed all sug
gestions of aiding Austria and Ger
many. Bulgaria will remain neutra
UNLESS Turkey enters the war. II she
does t.is likely that Roumanian-Bul
garian combination will at once b.
formed, and an immediate offensive
campaign against Turkey be begun
This will obviate the necessity Of Rus
STA detaching troops to prevent an IN
vasion OF Russia by Turkey.

The faces OF the soldiers az they

Many were dull, weary. sad and filled
with gloom. Others were alight with
adventure and the fires OF patriotism.
But all moved on, relentlessly. auto
like q great machine that
could not stop.
"They we're not handsome soldiers"
said Miss Williams. Their uniforms
were baggy and limiting. many were
stopped. and there was an absence of
snap to their march, They seemed
