"If. DESPITE these difficulties, the
French army renews an offensive at the
price of a bloody sacrifice, it is with the
conscientious mission OF holding large

the Marine victory is stopped the inva'
sion and ruined the first German plan
which was, first, to shatter France and
return then against Russia.
BY the victory of the User. with the
aid Of the allied army, closing the line

enemy from getting foothold in Pas

WARNS
GERMANY LITTLE
CAN BE EXPECTED
FROM RUMANIA

Berlin, Aug. 4-(Via London, u.50 A.
MA warning that no help can be ex-
pected from Rumania is conveyed to the
readers Of the Tages Zeitung in an edi-
tor1al article this morning by Count Won
Ernest Reventlow. This article, which
is headed 'Rumania's falling quotation"
summarizes the situation in the follow
ing paragraph
Those friendly relations with Ruma-
MIA made sacred by tradition and-on the
German side-by firm confidence, can
hardly longer be considered as existing"
Count Reventlow points out Rumania' 8
refusal to permit exports of grain or
permission for Turks to pass through its
territory, although Russia was permit
ted to transship munitions to Serbia. The
importance of Rumania's aid to Germa-
ny and Turkey has been greatly lessened
however. Count Reventlow insists. But
for Russia's Galician defeat Rumania
would have been a military factor in CO.
operation with the Muscovites, he says.

RAvENNA MINE
TO RESUME WORK


OF concerns in this country manufac-
turing munitions. is said to be with
out precedent. The increased rate OF
output OF various products is aftested
In the fact that plants OF the United
States Steel corporation operated on a
basis OF SO per cent OF capacity last
week as compared with 81 per cent
during the preceding week. Five more
OF the corporations blast furnaces
have been started up.
Bessemer pig iron has been adj
yanced another rs cents during the
last few days. Sales have been made
in the East at $l4 a ton. against a
previous market OF from $3.50 10
slS'75. Quotations are working up in
all classes OF materials and further
advances are predicted shortly. Billets
are especially strong, one company
asking as high as 1855 per 100 pounds
Some manufacturers OF special steel
used In the making OF munitions are
said to be sold up several months
ahead.
Commenting upon the general sit
uation in the trade, the Iron Age says :
The Steel corporations report has
given new measure OF the steel
trades prosperity. That there was
] marked rise in the second half OF
June tallies with other facts show
ing how rapidly the recent improve
ment came.
The market developments OF the
week have been equally stirring. In
new business the leading item is q
total OF 100000 tons of bars placed
by Cleveland interest for shipment
to France, bringing the total on thi,
account TO $4,000 tons, which has
been divided between the Steel cor.
pora1ion and the Lackawanna Stee
company An additional 100000 tons
will be placed for telivery in the nexI
six months II prices and deliverie,
can be arranged. France is also in
the market for shell forgings for NOR.
than 100000 shells. e-inch 10 1l-inch
to be delivered at the rate OF s.eoo 8
day.
