Roumanians Reported In
Flight
BURNING THEIR TOWNS
Won Mackensen's Troops Have Crossed
Swollen Danube and Are in Touch
Near Alexandria With Forces OF
Won FaIkenhayn Advancing From
CraiOVa.

With armies of the Teutonic Allies
advancing toward it, both from the
west and southwest, Bucharest, the
capital of Rumania, apparently is i'll
peril.
Field Marshal Won MackenSen's
troops have crossed the Danube from
Bulgarian territory to IimnitZa and
are in touch near Alexandria. ~ miles
southwest of Bucharest with the
forces of General Won Falkenhayn' s
army from Craiova. All along the
front on the Walachian plains east Of
the Alt river the RumanianS are in
flight. burning towns behind them,
says Berlin.
To the north, on the heights of Cur
tea DeargeS, in the region of Drago-
slavele, northeast of Campulun%. and
in western Moldavia near OituZ, the
RumanianS are offering strong resist
ance to the southwark advance Of the
Teutons. On all these sectors at
tempts by the Austro- Germans to ad-
vance have been held back by the
RumanianS.
As vet there has been no indication
of the arrival of Russian reinforce
mentS to aid the RumananS on the
Wallachian plains but the Russo Ru
manian troops in Dohrudia are active.
possibly in an endeavor to push back
the invaders to the TchernavodaC Con-
stanza railway line.
Sofia reports that this reinforced
army intended a general attack along
the entire front. but has been COM
PEELED to cOntine itself to partial at
tackS.
In the Macedonian theater bad
weather prevails and there has been
no infantry action except on the left
wing Of the entente allies line, where
the Italians have made further prog
reSS toward Trnova, near the Mona
stir PreSba lake road, according to
Paris.
This statement, as regards the gain.
is contradictcd by the Sofia war office,
which says an Italian attack here was
repulSed and that the attackers lost
a large quantity of war materials. So
fla also denies a recent French report
that the French had captured the town
of DObromir, saying the Bulgarians
are fully in control there.
The French front also is experience
ing another spell of inclement wealth
er. and except for small attacks at
various points, little activity has been
displayed by either side.
There has been considerable artil-
lcry fighting along the eastern front
at various places from the Riga re-
gion to the CarpathianS with the Ger
mans the aggresSors and also on the
Austro- Italian front with the Aus
trians on the initiative.

Villa Bandits and Soldiers
In Battle
VILLA HAS CLOSE CALL
Automobile Is Wrecked As Villa Was
Watching Attack on Chihuahua
City-City Still Held by Carranza
Troops.

Francisco Villas automobile. which
was being used by him to direct his
campaigns against the CarranZa
troops, was struck by shell fire and
was abandoned near Fresno, south
west of Chihuahua City.
The shell holes and bullet marks
were plainly seen on the sides of the
big automobile when it was found ON
the battlefield after Villa abandoned
1t and rode away on horseback.
The battle Saturday started soon
after the Geographic communication
with Juarez was cut. The wire went
down at 10 O'Clock Il. m. and the bat
tie was raging by 80 a. m. The
bandits attack covered the entire
southern front. with fianking opera
ti0ns to the east and west. The most
desperate fighting occurred at ZarcO
avenue, within the city. The bandits
threw their best equipped forces
against the entertainments which had
been thrown up across this street, and
street fighting followed.
The de facto infantry met these
charges with counter charges, and the.
battle Waged back and forth in this
narrow street until the Villa bandits
were driven out of the mouth of the
avenue onto the plains, where they
were raked with machine gun fire
from the houSetops and the artillery
fire which had supported effectively
the infantry efforts.

PEACE TALK FUTILE.
Impossible at Present, Says Lord Rob
ert Cecil

RumorS that there was a possibility
for some definite negotiations toward
peace were discounted by Lord Robert
Cecil, minister of war trade. and who
told the Associated Press that "in
view of the Belgian dcportations and
the sinking Of hospital ships, any talk
Of p"ac" mt the present time must be
futile"
Lord Robert continued:
I've have not yet had in the case
Of either the Britannia or the Bros.
mar Castle any official report rs to
whether the ships were torpcdocd or
mined. but the proximity of the dis
aNtrrS inevitably leads one to believe
that 4 submarine must have been re-
SpOnSihlc."
