London, Oct. 81 RumanIa's stroke

Bulgaria, is the outstanding feature
of the current war news this after
noon.
Should Rumania's army prove to be
of formidable sizes it will constitute
a serious menace to Won Mackensen's

retirement from the front which he
holds at the present time from the
canstanza Tchenovoda railway
The Russians and Rumanians al
ready are pressing Won Mackensen

invasion, saying that only several bat

Money is Lost.

A railroad official said today that
it would be impossible TO estimate
the great damage done manufacturers
and shippers OF this section by the
car shortage. Thousands of dollars
are lost monthly by lack Of car IA
ci:ities.'
The lumber interests of Mississippi
and Louisiana are the hardest hit by
the shortage. Less than 25 per cent
OF the orders received can be filled
because Of lack of shipping facilities.
Until the great grain movement from
the west, aud the movement of man"
ufactured articles from the eastern cen
ters for the west and the Pacific coast,
! ends, there is no indication that the
Mutation will be relieved.
