WASHINGTON. Nov. 29.Consul Put nam at Valencia, Spain, reported to- day that the American steamer Chem ung was sunk by gunfire and a torpedo from an Austrian submarine fourteen miles east of Cape de Gata, Spain. No additional details have been re ceived officially.
 Interest here centered today on the prospect of extreme difficulty in col letting damages for the loss of the steamer now that it is known that she was sunk by an Austrian warcraft Many authorities have held that under international law, boat carrying over fifty per cent contraband could be sunk if it were impossible for the captor to get it to port

Although the Russians. probably as diversion, have started and are carrying on with great intensity an offensive in the Carpathian region around Kirlibaba. northwest of the Rumanian border. the advance of the Teutonic allies all along the line in Wallachia toward the Rumanian cap ital of Bucharest apparently is meet ing with little impeachment.
 The left flank of the forces of the central powers have now captured the important railroad junction of Petechti sixty-five miles northwest of Buchar- est; in the center the Rumanians are reported to be retreating in disorder, while the right flank. composed of the army of Field Marshal von Mackensen, which crossed the Danube. is carrying out maneuvers in cooperation with the other commanders to the north.

High Cost of living and Pos sible Food Embargo Will Be
 Burning Issues of the Ap-
 preaching Session.
RETALIATION EMBARGOI NOT FAVORED BY MANN
Leader and Others However, Plan Legislation to Regulate Prices of Necessities of Life, This Session.
(By Review Leased Wire)


 WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-With the arrival in Washington of mem
 bers of congress the subject of general discussion d,ininant with them is the high cost of living and the food embargo to be urged by Representative Fitzgerald of New York as remedy.
 Hot Debate Expected
 The discussion has presented a wide variety of views, some members believing that an embargo is not the remedy for existing conditions and that the subject will lead to much de bate in congress.
 MT. Fitzgerald said today that he would have two bills ready for intro duction Monday bearing on the ques- ton of embargoes.
 Embargo No Solution
 Leader Mann said he did not be- lieve an embargo would be placed or food products and that it was not a remedy for the evil. An embargo of fered as a retaliatory measure, in his opinion, differed greatly from an en- bargo to regulate prices and sufficient warrant did not exist for retaliatory embargo. Representative Borland doubted the wisdom of an embargo but thought the soaring pricel of foodstuffs could be checked by some sort of legislation. Representative Mclean was inclined to favor the em- bargo.
