The statement is regarded in off.
clal circles as one of the most inn
portant declarations by the board
since its creation. Officials would
not discuss the question for publca-
ton, but some of them informally in
terpreted the warning as the reserve
boards answer to the recent proposal

agents in this country, to have Amer

bills of an indefinite total issue se-
cured by gold reserves held in Otta-
wa. Such bills would be for ninety
days with the privilege of renewal for
live other ninety-day periods.
Il. L. Dawson of the Morgan firm
was In Washington recently and con-

Germans Rapidly Close in
on Capital From North,
South and West.
ENTENTE SUFFERS
A DECISIVE DEFEAT
Attack Against Central
Power Lines North of
Monastir Repulsed.

TIlE entire line of the Ait river in
l. Rumania, running north and
south thru the country from the
Transylyanian Alps to the Danube
now is in the hands of the Teutonic
allies. In all directions the invaders
are continuing To make progress, with
Bucharest their main objective daily
coming nearer. The German allies
are closing in from the north, south
and west.
The southern and eastern drive in
the Alt region has brought the Teu-
tonic forces across the Topolog river
while to the south between Rochi DE
Nede and Naleni their line has been
drawn considerably nearer the Ru
manian capital. Alexandria, Al miles
southeast of Bucharest has been
taken by Field Marshal Won Mack
ensen's troops.
Considering the swiftness of the
advance of the Teutonic allies thru
Wallachia, comparatively few prs-
oners have been taken, altho semi
official reports credit them with hav-
ing captured considerable supplies of
needed stores Near Orsova 2S Off
VI . anu ls-NV illtll htlt maui Il lS-
oners, while in the Alt region near
Tigveni ten additional officers and
four hundred men fell into the hands
of the Teutons.
A severe Defeat.
In a big battle extending over a
front about II miles northwest and
northeast of Monastir - between
Trnovo and Makovo-the entente al
lies, according to Berlin. have met
with Il severe defeat thru the fail
ure of an attack launched against the
lines of the allies of the central
powers. Aside from reports of the
repulse of the Bulgarians by the Serb
ians and of continued progress for
the Italians west of Monastir, the
entente allied war office record no
important engagements on the Mace
donian front.
In the Carnia sector of the Austro-
Italian theater and east of Gorizia the
Austrians are vigorously shelling the
Italians. on the Russian front there
has been considerable activity by both
the Russians and Germans at various
points.
Arabs Defeat Italians.
Another semiofficial dispatch from
Berlin quotes Constantinople advices
to the effect that Arabs on the
Tripoli-Tunis frontier in north Africa
have defeated the Italians and car
ried the fight across the border into
Tunis against the French. The losses
of the Italians are estimated at
twenty thousand men, not including
prisoners taken into the interior by
the Arabs.

clined to grant a safe conduct to the
