BULGARIA DECLARES
WAR ON RUMANIA TODAY
Russians Take $4,000 Pris-

BY Wilbur s. Forrest.

(united Press staff correspondent
Dondon, Sept. 1.-Using the famous
German "nut cracker" tactics, the Ru.
manians are pressing forward rapidly
on both wings, squeezing the Austrians
out of all southeastern Pennsylvania.
The Austrians, caught in the center
and in danger of being crushed by the
jaws of the "nut cracker" already
have abandoned more than 400 square
miles of Transylvanian territory to the
invaders. AT least dozen towns and
villages have been captured by the Ru-
manians since war was declared Sun
day night. So rapidly are the Austrians
retreating on the center that there has
been little heavy fighting and but few
prisoners have been taken.
The Rumanian right wing, linked up
with the Russians near the Bukowina
frontier, is advancing on the famous
old Hungarian city of Bistritz. 30 miles
from the Rumanian frontier A Central
News dispatch from The Hague today
said that the Austrians are preparing to
evacuate Bistritz.

Bukowina.
Along the southern border of Transyl-
vania, the Austrians are attempting to
make stand in the mountain passes
The Berlin Tageblatt 8 correspondent at
the Austrian front, admitting the sur
render of Kronzstadt and other towns
TO the Rumanians, indicated that the
Austrians will fight stubbornly to hold
hermannstadt, former capital of Tran
sylvania. and the Red Tower pass. the
mountain gateway approaching Her
mannstadt. Should the Rumanians burst
through this pass in large force, they
might cut off and capture the Aus
trians retreating from southeastern
Pennsylvania.
Forty five miles further west, how
ever, the Rumanians have pierced to
Vall:an Pass, it is admitted at Wen
ma, and have marched 10 miles north

town of Petrosenyi.

EIGHT HOUR DAY BILL
TO BE PASSED BY THE
SENATE TOMORROW

New York, that the railroad men are
forcing the legislation with a gun
against the head of congress- The
railroad employees did not bring this
case to congress They are not trying
to hold up congress. The president
brought this case here. There is no
more law abiding body of men in the
world than members of the four great
brotherhoods. !"
Lenroot joined Cooper in declaring
President Wilson is responsible for
the present crisis.
''The president told us Tuesday this
crisis had been threatening the ma
tons life for a year. Why did not
he, and did not you democrats do
something before this, if he and you
knew of the impending calamityl No
one believes this is really an eight
hour law. 1t is merely legislating the
employees an increase in pay
"Shotgun procedure" is what Rep
representative Bennett called the ac
tion of the brotherhood leaders in say
ing only an eight hour law can prevent
the strike Monday.
al don't believe this bill will pre-
vent the strike. No one competent tC
speak has told us it would dom
think anyone really believes it will"

Barbed Wire at Terminals

San Francisco, Sept. 1.-Preparations
for the threatened railroad strike CON
tinued today despite the apparent
change for the better brought about
by the introduction of legislation to
avert trouble.
Today the employees of the Southern
Pacific and Santa Fe are receiving
final friendly warnings from the com
panies, reminding them that any man
striking forfeits his rights to pension
and his seniority rights. In addition,
the company is posting notices in all
waiting rooms, ticket offices and
freight depots, warning passengers and
shippers that tickets will be sold, or
shipments received only when the des-
tination can be reacned by tomorrow
night. High board fences, with barbed
wire on top, have been built around the
terminal yards of the Southern Pacific,
Western Pacific, Santa Fe and North
western Pacific.
Railroads report today that more eof
their employees have definitely decided
TO remain with the company. With
these and reserve force Of pensioned
employees they expect to operate sew
eral trains daily. Even the Southern
Pacific transbay ferry service will
probably continue in case of strike
for arrangements were made whereby
the Southern Pacific ferryboats, which
are not affected by the strike, will op
crate between the ferry here and tbs

Washington, Sept 1.-After feverish
haste in its efforts to thwart railroad
strike, the house late this afternoon
passed the Adamson eigth hour law for
train employees, by vote of 239 to SO.
This measure acceptable to the broth
erhoods as preventative of the threat
ened strike, proposes an eight hour day
for train employees with 10 hours pay,
pending six to eight months investiga-
tion by commission created under the
act.
Washington, Sept. 1.-The house plan
was to limit debate by special rule to
about two hours and to vote on the
Adamson bill at p. m.
Shortly after 10 o'clock the senate
recessed until / O'Clock. The action
was taken, it was said, in order to sound
the extent of the republican opposi-
tion that might develop on the strike
bill With the house bill passed along
to the senate, leaders of the latter body
said they would make every effort to
make the two bills conform in the chief
terms so as to eliminate necessity for
more than formal action, if any, by the
house and senate committees.
Republican Senate Leader Gallinger
said:
"There will be no obstructive tactics.
The bill probably will be passed by to.

CHAIRMAN WILCOX
MUCH PLEASED WITH
ROOSEvELT'S SPEECH
like Hughes, He Attacked
Wilson for Weak Course
with Mexico

New York, Sept. William r. Will
cox, chairman of the republican ma
tional committee, believes that Colonel
Roosevelt's first speech in behalf of
Charles f. Hughes at Lewiston, Maine,
last night not only is of great value to
the republican candidate, but is "note.
worthy contribution to the history of
the nation.'
Plunging into the Maine campaign,
the colonel assailel rhe Wilson admin.
istration for its Mexican policy, flay-
ed hyphens and held President Wilson
responsible for can evil revival of
non American and anti-Ameriean divis.
ion along political-raeial lines
Tnis is due primarily, the colonel
said, ''to the fact that President Will
son has lacked the courage and the Wis.
high duty, and by this lack of affirm
ative leadership has loosened the moral
fibre of our people, weakened our ma
tional spirit and has encouraged the
upgrowth within our borders of separa-
tism along the lines of racial origin. -
The colonel declared the citizen who
seeks to shape American policy in the
interest of the country from which he
or his ancestors came, has no moral
| right to American citizenship.
In a statement left at republican
headquarters before his departure for
Indianapolis and given out today, bas'
ed on the advance copy of Roosevelt s
speech, Chairman Wilcox commented
ba al % aiat inp u
of the administration IS Mexican poll
cy.
Was Too Vacillating
"We have all known" he declared
that President Wilson constantly
changed his mind on the subject of per
mitting the sending of arms and am
munition into Mexico, but no one be
fore has presented the evidence of his
vaccilation in as concise and forcefu
form as Colonel Roosevelt. F"
In recognizing Carranza, Colone
Roosevelt declared President Wilson
not only "kissed the hand that slap
ped whim in the face but kissed that
hand wnen it was red with the blood
of American men, women and chll
dren. 4"

Roosevelt, would it have occurred tt
remark that it was unjust to Pontiu'
PLATE to liken the neutrality of Pres
ident Wilson to that of the Roman pro
CURATOR Wilcox declared.
The national committeeman called
attention to Roosevelt IS reference to
what he termed American Intervention
in Haiti and the "bloody peace" in
Mexico.
"'Mr. Roosevelt's s speech was pure
and unaduterated Amerlcanism, Viii
cox declared "and in supporting Mr.
Hughes, every one must realize that
he is waolly unselfish, that he has
nothing to gain for himself and is ac
