RUMANIA DEFENDS
SEIZURE OF ARMS
Says Munitions Meant for
Turks Indicate Porte'S
Warlike Intent.
BY cable 10 Tho Tribune. !

Milan, Oct 20. The news received
by the "Giornale dItalia" that a train
load of munitions OF war consigned
from Germany TO Turkey had been
stopped by order Of the Rumanian gov
ornment is confirmed in an authorita-
tive quarter The Rumanian govern
ment justifies its action on the ground
that the consignment was destined for
power which, having declared its
neutrality, displays obvious signs OF
taking in the near future warlike ac-
ton which might be directed against
Rumanis.
1t is stated that the Bucharest gov
ernment has decided to maintain for
the present its attitude of watchful
waiting.
King Ferdinand has not yet con-
ferred with Premier Bratiano on
the international situation. and IL is
not even known whether ". Bratiano
will remain in Office or be replaced by
coalition ministry. II is thought,
however, that a coalition ministry will
be formed, if and when Rumania de-
cides to intervene.

BRITISH SUBMARINE
SUNK, SAY GERMANS
E-3 Sent Down by War
ships in North Sea, 1t Is
Announced.

Berlin. Oct. 20 (by wireless 10 Say
Vile, Long Tslsnd).-lt was officially
stated here to-day that the British
new submarine E-3 WAS sunk on Sun
day by German -warships in the North
Sea.
Press information given out to-day
in German official circles says:
although the news Of the fate Of
the Germ n torpedo boats S-1l5, S-1l7,
Sis and S-l19, which were sunk by
British warships off the Dutch coast,
has aroused feelings OF deep regret
throughout Germany, the loss of the
ships will rather increase than de-
crease the pride of the Germans for
their navy. The crews are much be-
moaned, but the vessels were old and
of little value"
London, Oct. 21.--A Reuter- dispatch
from Stavanger, Norway, says that the
British steamship Glitera, Of Leith.
was sunk to-day twelve miles off the
Norwegian coast by German subma-
rine. The crew of the ship were
ordered into the boats and the valves
were opened.
The name Of the Glitera does not
appear in any available maratime reg
listers.
The destruction Of the British sub
marine E-3 by German wsrships in the
North Sea ,as announced from Berlin,
is the first loss sustained by the Brit
ish submarine service since the out
break Of the war. The E-3 was a com
paratively new boat, having been COM
pleted in 1918. She was 176 feet lorg
and % l-2 feet beam. She was capable
of making 16 knots above the water
and 10 knots below, and was equipped
with four 2i-inch torpedo tubes. Her
complement consisted of sixteen men.

2o.-The German invaders, in their et-
fort TO shorten their lines and remove
their right wing further southwest
ward upon the English Channel, are
meeting with a vigorous offensive from
the Allies. A good part of the fighting
is being done in the obscurity of foGs.
French marines yesterday put forth
a fine effort against the Germans. The
troops Of Emperor William on Sunday
had tried a surprise attack on the ma
rines, who had held the field works
against superior numbers. The hgnt
lasted all day, and then The Germans
contented themselves with cannonsding
the position of the marines.
A thick fog covered the entire region
on Monday. and the marines, sccus-
toned TO such weather conditions,
crept toward the German trenches. NO
shooting" was the order; "use the bay
onet."
The marines got within thirty feet
of the trenches before they we're seen.
II was too late for the defenders, VINO
were bayoneted in the trenches and
beyond the trenches as they ran. Four
hundred German prisoners we're taken.
Germans Caught by Mine.
On. Of the places where the French
had been most harassed is near the
elbow of the western line. The i'm
portsnt position there had been taken
and re-taken frequently during the last
three weeks. Every time the Germans
had been obliged TO abandon the po-
sition, they returned in greater force
and nushed back the French by weight
Of numbers.
The French took the position for the
twelfth time and held it for ten hours.
Then came a shock Of the human bat
tcring ram and the French gradually
gave way. The Germans began forti-
fvinp the place, but, while they were
engaged in this task the earth hesved
and deafening explosion occurred.
The ten hours the French had held
the point had been sufficient TO mine
cverv rod of the ground. II is esti-
mated that three German bsttslions
were snnihilated.
Use Canal for Trenches.
The strength of the German positions
north of Roye, which facilitated their
movements toward Lille, is explained
nv the fact that they were occupying
an unfinished canal extending ss far as
RoiseI. The Germans found in the deep
broad cutting magnificent intrench-
ments. in which they had only 10 install
batteries Of artillery.
Officers of the Allies say they have
noted that only about 30 per cent Of
the shells from these guns explode.
They say also that the prodigality Of
the fire from them apparently has de-
pleted the Germans supplies of ammu-
milton, as the intensity of the fire late
, ly has diminished.
The French artillersts arc SO careful
in getting their ranges that they waste
few shells. In an artillery duel near
Armentieres the Germans fired for half
day into thickets that had been aban-
doned some time before. When the
French 3-inch guns finally got the range
twelve shells FROM them sllenced the
German battery.
