PETROGRAD, Dec. 1.-THE Ru-
manian disaster is more keenly felt
by Russia than the other allies. The
latest reports say that the Rumanians
are devoting increasing energy to the
task of delaying by rear guard ac-
tons the rapid advance of the enemy
forces.
The idea of defending the line of
the Jaiemitza river apparently has
been abandoned on account of the
unexpected rapid development of op-
erations north and east of Bucharest
which has made this line untenable
Most of the Russian military ex-
perts consider that with the fall of
Wallachia the aim of the Germans
has been accomplished and that there
is no possibility of an advance into
Moldavia, where Rumanians can be
reinforced by Russian troops capable
