WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-While
they wait for General CarranZa to a,

the joint commission at Atlantic city,
administration officials are giving
much attention to every report relat-
Ing 20 the activities OF Villa and u

RUSSIANS LATE ON SCENE
Military Critics Believe Noth-
ing Can Save Ruman,an

LONDON. Dec. 2.-G0 p. mD-
Altho the Rumanians apparently are
offering 'peratc resistance west
ana south - bucharest, the oenmy
forces are rapidly closing in on their
capital and even the most optimistic
military critics here now admit that
The situation Is extremely critical
Advices from Berlin today report
that the Danube army is already men
acng the girdle of furtrcscs around
bucharest. having reached the Ar
gechu river. which Is only five miles
from the forts. The Germans and
Rulgarians also have gained ground
northwest of the capital by working
thru the passes southeast of Campu-
lung.
STAFF Officers Captured.
Stll another enemy force is report
ed to have brokn thru and defeated
the first Rumanian army southwest
of Piteshti, enabling 1t to capture
general staff officers. The Ruman-
ian and Russian communications are
silent regarding this last claim, altho
both admit that the Rumanians un-
der pressure were compelled to re-
treat slightly in this sector. Further
west in Wallachia. the Rumanians
assert that adverse weather condl-
tons are hampering their operations.
Russian Aid Too Late.
It is generally believed here that
Russian pressure on Won Falkenhayn' $
army thru Pennsylvania, has come too
late to offset the rapid gains of the
German or affect materially the Ger
man plans of encrcling bucharest.
The Russians latest success in cap
turing a series of heights southe OF
Kirlibaba gives them an entering
wedge into Pennsylvania and proves a
most encouraging counter move on
the part of the allies.
Success for Allies.
That the Russian forces in con-
junction with Rumanians are making
progress in Dobrud1a is Indicated by
the latest communication which re
ports that the allies have rcgained
part of the TcheruaVoda bridge, ocm-
pelling the opposing forces to retire
southwark from several heights. A
si.rificant, feature OF the move from
all points In this teater of war is the
absence of claims that either side Is
taking large numbers of prisoners
which seems to Indicate the desperate
character of the encounters.
