Gen. Petain to Succeed Gen.
Joffre as Commander Of
Germany's Enemies
sRUMANIANS ABOUT
TO MAKE A STAND

Washington, D. c., Dec. IL. -Pri-
vate advices from Paris received here
today telling Of the secret proceedings
IN the French chamber of deputies
during the last week confirm previous
reports that General Petain, the defen-
der Of Verdun, is to succeed General
Joffre in supreme command of all the
allied forces on the western battle
front, as the first result of (, radical
changes in organization which are to
follow concentration of management OF
the war in small council, as has been
done in England.
General Petain, little known outside
the French army, was a colonel at the
outbreak of the war

WAR SUMMARY.

Indications todayspoint more strong
ly than ever to the probability that the
new defensive line of the Rumanians,
following their retreat from Bucharest.
will be drawn along the Buzeu river.
forming the southern boundary of their
northern province of Moldavia.
Additional reports from Petrograd
indicate a considerable measure of
(uccess by the Rumanian northern
(army in holding up the Teutonic ad-
vance northeast along the railroad
from Ploechi north of Bucharest, to
the town of Buzeu. located at about the
center Of the Buzeu river line which
stretches eastward to the lower
reaches of the Danube.
1t Is necessary to the apparent pur-
pose Of the Rumanians for them to
prevent an Austro-German advance
here until the Rumanian forces further
south in eastern Wallachia, retreating
from the region between Bucharest
and Tchernavoda, have reached the
Buzeu river line unless, indeed the Ru-
manian military authorities have de-
cided to retain hold on more of east
ern Wallachia than it now seems their
purpose to defend. These Rumanian
forces are threatened not only by
Field Marshal Won Mackensen's Dan
ube army but by new contingents OF
Bulgarians which have crossed the
Danube between Silistria and Tcherna-
voda.
Russians on Offensive.
Meanwhile the Russians are ham.
mering away at the Austro- German
he ~
dayia and report making headway in
the valleys running toward the west.
Their object APPARENTLY is not only
to hold the Moldavian frontier safe,
but possibly to achieve an eventful
success in breaking well through into
Hungary and cutting in behind the
AustroGerman supply lines leading in
to Rumanians from the north.
There has been fighting of an i'm.
portant nature on the other fronts In
Macedonia the Serbians report having
driven the Bulgarians back In one
sector northeast Of Monastir. On the
Franco-Belgian front little has devel.
oped beyond intermittent artillery ac-
tivity in the Somme area and aviation
operations on considerable scale.
Many Prisoners Taken.
Berlin advices say the Rumanians
have lost 10000 prisoners and have
suffered 100000 casualties since Ru-
mania entered the war.
No changes Of note have occurred
on the western front In France.
Paris reports the capture by the
British or Turkish positions south Of
Seres, Greece. and Berlin says an at
%o,1y nv tho pOfonfo alias cost of Mor
sstir. Serbia, was repulsed by the Teu-
eUnic allies.
A violent artillery duel is in pro-
gress in the Austro-Italian front on the
Carso plateau.
The German merchant submarine
Deutschland has arrived safely in Ger.
many from the United States.
German submarines have sunk sew
On more steamers, three British, three
Norwegian and one Spanish.
