Progress Said to be More Rapid
 Past Week.

According to information re- ceived here the first part of the week, the Travellers Oil & Gas Company's No. l, in section 29- 9-7 was shut down at $50 feet, with a broken water fine. Much better progress than had been reported previously was made in this test week before last, the drillers going 500 feet in five days. The water for the boilers was being obtained from a creek some distance from the well; the line became filled with sand, and the pumps were unable to stand the strain. Additional material has been ordered, but had not arrived at last accounts.
 The McDonough No. 2 well, near Cecil was stlll shut down at 2, 40 feet and at last accounts the drillers were waiting for a new cable to replace the one re- gently worn out.

Rumania in Bad Way.

Berlin, Oct. 27.-Fleeing Russo. .Ru-
manian forces are evacuating practical
1y all Dobrudja, said an official state
ment from the Bulgarian war office to-
day.
"On the whole front the enemy is
retreating precipitately toward Tulcea,
Braila and Harsova, pursued by our
forces" said the statement issued at
Sofia. Wednesdays capture included
10 officers, III men and Is machine
guns
(Tulcea lies 20 miles north of Con.
stanza, on the southern arm of the Dan
ube and few miles from the Russian
frontier. Braila lies about 20 miles
north of Cernavoda on the Danube and
Harsova about 25 miles northwest of
Carnavoda on the Danube.)
King Ferdinand dispatched personal
apepals to the rulers of allied nations
TO save Rumana from disaster after the
fall of Constanza, according to Buda-
pest dispatches.
The messages were sent following a
stormy session of the Rumanian cabinet.
Rumanian military leaders were said to
have been harshly criticised by several
of the ministers but supported by the
king, who declared the Rumanian de.
feat was due to the fact that Russia

had failed to supply the artillery and
munitions she had promised.
German military men expect an early
demonstration by the allies, probably on
the Italian and Macedonian fronts, in
response to King Ferdinand's appeal.
Because of the allied armies lack of
sufficient munitions for great offens-
ives on these fronts, the attacks are
expected to be short lived and directed
largely for the purpose of encouraging
the disheartened Rumanians.
"South of Predeal and in the direc.
tion of Campolung our attack progress
ed" added the official statement. "On
the southern part of the Carpathian
forest renewed Russian and Rumanian
attacks failed. Hostile advances on the
east frontier of Pennsylvania were re-
pulsed.
"On the Macedonian front there is
nothing to report"

tance of about 25 miles.
