The Jewish bankers and promi-

to alleviate the sufferings of Jews in
Europe after the war. This is noble
charity, but that amount spent be-
fore the war in eliminating prejudice
and arrogant patriotism from the
heart of European peoples would
have prevented the war.

on .Rumanian infantry in which 800

the Rumanians are devoting increased
energy to the task of delaying by rear

enemy forces. The idea of defending
the line Of the Jalomitza river. APP
parently has been abandoned on ac-
count of the unexpectedly rapid de-
velopment of operations north and east
of Bucharest, which has made this line
untenable. Most of Russian military

RUMAN|AN LOSSES
NOW 412,O00 MEN
Total Casualties inn at
100000, While 10000
Were Made Prisoners In
To-day Campaign.

Berlin. Dec. 15.@(by wireless to Say
ville)-The Rumanians have lost APP
p~roxinaately 10000 men in prisoners
since Rumania entered the war, or
about one-sixth Of their army, besides
suffering causa1ities estimated at about
100000, writes the military critics Of
the Overseas News agencies today. The
Ieutonic victory has made possible the
shortening of the front by about $40
miles, continues the critic. The German
losses are declared to have been as
~tonishingly small. One army corps
which made 5000 prisoners and be-
sides is calculated to have been ac-
opposing ranks, had itself considerably
less than 1000 casualties, writes the
military critic, who also instances the
capture by the Teutonic forces during
the past week Of nearly 10000 men in
prisoners, besides immense quantities
OF cannon machine guns, material, and
supplies. The great Russian offensive
on h north, pressed in force and at a
cost of great sacrifices in an effort to
save portions of the northern Ruman-
ian army, is declared to have been al
together in vain.
Indications today point more strongly
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.
Hold Germans Back.
Additional reports from Petrograd
Indicate a considerable measure OF sue
cess by the Rumanian northern army
in holding up the Teutonic advance
along h railroad from Ploechti, north
or Bucharest, to the town of Buzeu, To-
Gated 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 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 Tcher-
navoda, have reached h Buzeu river
line, unless, indeed the Rumanian mill
tary authorities have decided to re-
tain a hold on more of eastern Walla-
CHA than It now seems their purpose
to defend. These Rumanian forces are
threatened not only by Field Marshal
Won Mackensen's Danube army. but by
new contingents Of Bulgarians which
have crossed the Danube between Silis-
tria and Tchernavoda.
SIavs Hammer Away.
Meanwhile the Russians are hammer
ing away at the Austro-German lines
on the western frontier of Moldavia and
report making Roadway in the valleys
running toward the west.
Their object apparently Is not only
to hold the MoIdavian frontier safe, but
possibly to achieve an eventual success
in breaking well through into Hungary
and cutting in behind the Austro-Ger-
man supply lines leading into Runania
from the nortk.
