 The statement declares that a pitch ed battle occurred between the Aus trian forces under the German Gen eral Karl who captured a large body of Roumania troops near the Transyl- Vania frontier.
 The reasons of Roumania for enter ing the war are contained in an off cial statement, issued in Bucharest immediately after the war declaration, which declares that the nation has been exposed to all the risks of war and invasion by the Austrians and Hungarians and it is believed that Roumanian intervention will shorten the War. The government has. there fore, decided to cast it's lot with the entente nations.
