THE WAR TO-DAY

The attitude OF Rumania is said at
London TO be causing concern in Ber-
lin. The feeling is expressed in some
quarters there that Austria-HungaTy
should make territorial concessions to
ensure Rumania's S neutrality. \ Bu-
charest dispatch TO Paris SAYS Bull
garia has obtained territorial grants
from Rumania and that Rumania is
engaged in similar negotiations with
Russia. Under this plan, it is said,
Rumania viii go 10 war against Aus
tria and Bulgaria against Turkey.
The status of military operations in
Galicia is made still more confused by
the latest official report from Petro-
grad. North of Przemysl. where i'm
portant successes for the Austro-Ger-
man forces are claimed at Berlin and
Vienna. it is said the Russians repuis-
ed their opponents with enormous
losses. The Russian war office ac-
knowledges that one fort was broken
into. but declares the attackers were
expelled. Successes all along the east
ern front are reported by the Germans
and Austrians, who say three forts
north OF Przemysl were captured

Kingdom Is Now Occupying
Uneasy Neutrality" Seat
Filled by Italy.
ANXIETY In GERMANY
Austria Hungary Is Told She
Must Be Prepared to
Make Sacrifices.

London, June 2-Rumania is now
occupying the seat of uneasy neutral
ity" lately held by Italy. The diplo-
mats of the Near East evidently are
working hard 10 bring about an under
standing between Bulgaria and Ru-
mania. Rumors are rife that Rumania
is mobilizing an army of 100000
men, which is said TO be in splendid
condition for active service.
The German press is showing some
indications of anxiety over this situa-
ton, and the Frankfort Zeitung has
called for concessions to prevent Ru-
manian Intervention. Vienna has been
informed that Germany, pouring out
blood and treasure in the struggle.
must be listened to, and that Austria
Hungary must be prepared to make
certain sacrifices to meet the Ruman-
ian demand.
It is significant. in the opinion of
British observers. that three of the
opposition leaders in the Hungarian
parliament have demanded and have
been granted a conference with EN-
peror Francis Joseph for the state
ment of opinions which cannot be ut.
tered in parliament itself.
The Russians are reported as being
heavily reinforced along the River
san. but the official accounts on opera
tions at this point continue TO be con-
Trajectory; the only fact emerging
clearly is that no decisive results yet
have been gained by either side.
In the western arena of hostilities
nothing of Importance has been re-
corded.
Reach An Understanding.
Paris. June Bulgaria and Ru-
mania have arrived at complete un-
according to Bucharest
10 the Petit Parisien, Ru-
mania having agreed 10 cede territory
in Dobrudja The two countries will
enter the war simultaneously. the dis
patch says, Rumania against Austria
and Bulgaria against Turkey. The
army stats of the TWO powers are said
to be busy coordinating military plans.
Negotiations between Rumania and
Russia over the lines of the Pruth and
OF Banat are said TO be virtually COM
plete. If Russia accepts Rumania's
the latter country is de-
clared to be ready To begin hostilities
without delay.

Laud their Negroes.

We would be ungrateful
and to be blamed if, after the
war, we don't surround our
black soldiers with fraternal
recgnition. Those who don't
know them, believe. at times,
even if they admire their
bravery and their dignity as
soldiers. that their roughness
and their savage simplicity
makes them inferior men.
They made a great mistake.
Besides their military virtue,
they possess. others in the
same degree of perfection.
They are good. faithful, their
intelligence is marv e o u S,
quick and elevating. Their
hearts are sensible to all teel-
lngs. with the capacity of the
finest delicacy. Nearly all of
them show a coolness and in
comparable greatness of soul.
Has it not been demonstrated
by the gratitude and fondness
with which their chief distin-
guish them? You must ques.
ton all of those chiefs. those
of highest position, those of
great experimental abilities
of men as Levantey, Gorand.
Marshland, Baratier, who had
dealt with the N e.gro.es.
When they speak Of them,
they speak with great vehem-
ence and emotion; the black
soldiers never fail in. the en-
tire and complete confidence
reposed in them by those Of
hcers, they are truly superior.
Well. they constitute an elite
that has already achieved
wonders and that in the great
war of nations they are realiz-
ing them in higher and more
wonderful scale.-C entral
