ers-Town Seized by Germans
Is Big Railway Center.

London, Nov. 22.-Craiova, vital
nerve of the strategic railway net OF
western Roumania, fell to the army of
General Won Falkenhayn at noon. Its
loss is the most serious blow suffered
by King Ferdinand's army since Rou-
mania's Intervention on the allies
side.
In the grip of wise of steel whose
only exit leads into impossible swamps,
deep thrust out into the WalIachian
plain whose products feed its people
the most fertile area of the Balkan
kingdoms today seems face TO face
with certain doom.
(Craiova is a city of $4,000. known
as the capital of western Wallachia
1t has been predicted that with the
fall of Craiova the Roumanian army
would be placed in serious position.)
Teutons 1923 Miles From Capital.
At Craiova the Teurons stand 120
miles due west of Bucharest. In con-
troll of four of the most important
rails of communication their headlong
advance toward the heart of the king
dom continues swifter than ever. That
advance holds menace of striking the
greatest strategical blow Of the war
1t threatens the bulk of the Roumanian
army still battling south of the Tran
sylvanian Alps and particularly the
forces around Orsova, near the iron
gate" with being completely cut Off
from all avenues of escape.

Russia Admits Retreat.

For these sorely shattered forces, a
last desperate stand in an open battle
against overwhelming odds in num-
beers of men and guns--or surrender
is the only alternative unless a miracle
happens.
The whole fighting in northwestern
Roumania as the result of the Teuton
dash into Wallachia, has assumed the
character of a race for the railways.
In jul and Mortru valleys the Teutons
won the race when they reached their
main goal, Craiova. Ominous indica-
tons that the feat is about to be re-
peated further TO the northeast is con-
tanned in the Russian war office state
ment admitting that under pressure
of the enemy Roumanian troops are re-
firing slowly southwark In the Alt
valley" Moreover. this Petrograd bull
Ietin is a belated one, for in another
paragraph it placed the retreating Rou-
manians in the region of Pilliash That
point is 40 miles northwest of CraiOva
A few hours after receipt of the Rus
sian statement, Berlin officially an
nounced Craiova's fall.
ION the Alt river" said the Ger
man war Office in an earlier official re-
port from Berlin, "some important
towns and intrenched heights were
captured by us from the Roumanians
in severe struggles"
Series of Battles Now On.
Through each of the Transylvanian
passes Teuton troops are being poured
some in pursuit of the retreating Rou-
manians, others in sweeping flanking
movements against those of King Fer
dinand's forces as are still graphing
for every inch of ground in vain hopes
to turn the tide of battle
With Craiova captured, the complete
overrunning of Wallachia, the south
western part of Roumania, is partly
accomplished. The fate of Roumania
is being decided in a series of huge
battles whose scene is one of the most
fertile regions of Europe.
One hundred million bushels of
wheat and 120,O00.000 bushels of maize
are produced annually by the fields
now overrun by the Teuton steamrol-
Ter. Nearly $50,0OO,0O0 worth of ce-
reals are exported annually from the
yield of the Wallachia plain now for
the most part in Teuton hands. Ines
Unable resources of petroleum, sorely
needed by the central powers, are
among its natural wealth-the wealth
for which up to -four. months ago the
central empires courted Roumanian
neutrality. Sheep. horses and swine
i'm untold numbers also are among
Wallachia's natural resources.

Lee told the delegates the history
of the strike order last summer. Ev-
cry one of the 600 delegates at Wash
ington. he said, had a differently word
ed code telegram on how to act. Such
n measure, he charged, was made nee
essary because the railroads in the
past had issued telegraphic orders in
crises over the signatures of the broth

Carter made a vicious attack on the
railroads for substituting the press of

MILLION DOLLARS BE SPENT ON
 MO OTHERz LODE:

One million dollars will be expend- ed in the next year by the Mother Lode Copper Mines Company The work contemplated includes the con struction of twelve mile wagon road and number of bridges, a complete concentrating plant and a battery of automobile trucks, which will be used to convey the concentrates to the head of the Copper River & North western railway at Mccarthy.
 These plans were decided upon at a meeting of the stockholders in Seattle last week, when it was decided to in crease the capitalization of the com pany from $5,0oo,00o to S7,5o0,00 and authorize a bond issue of $1 1,000,0 ,000. The bonds were underwritten by New York bankers before their authoriza- tion, and the money is immediately available, it was said. The stockhold- CTS also decided to take over the pro- perties of the Wallace Copper Cerpor- ation. These properties adjoin the Jumbo claim, the richest in the Kenne- colt group on one side and the Mother Lode mine on the other The ore blocked out in all groups has an esti- mated value of $S,000,000.
 The following officers were elected for the year at this meeting: James J. Godfrey, president; Scott Calhoun, president; Clarence l.. Warner, secretary and treasurer. Among the Lode are James J. Godfrey, John Mil Ter, Scott Calhoun. T. J. Donohue, J. w. Robinson. o. J. Hosford and J. NJ. Pooley.
 In the last two years the company, by using sleds in winter. has shipped approximately $2o0,000 worth of cop per ore to the Tacoma shelter. The installation of concentrator and the construction of wagon road on which automobile trucks may be used during the summer months and part of the winter will greatly increase the pro duction.
 Close to the Kennecott and Mo ther Lode are number of other pro- perties in which Seattle people are in terested," said Calhoun. Among these are the Hubbard Elliott, West over, Nikolai, Finch group. War Eagle Dillman group and Porcupine. The district was we'll proven long ago but so far the Morgan-G -Guggenheim in terests, controlling the Kennecott claims, have been the biggest shippers They are now shipping ore at the rate of nearly $3.ooO.o0 a month"

 tas Tar, none has been molested nor placed in the stockade with the score of captured during the south ward drive of the punitive expedition. They go about camp openly and even receive American gold, at the rate of about dollar a day. which is wealth for peon.
 These Nillistas, however, harbor no evil designs against the American troops. Neither do they talk about their affiliations with the bandit lead. CT. For they now are pacificos and de- clare that half of the poor people of the southern republic would do just as they are doing. work in desultory fashion for the army from the north, If given an opportunity.
 But few of the laborers stay long in camp. Their fear of Villa is too great. The threat Villa has made. to kill every man and woman who turns hand for the invaders" strikes a chill to their hearts,
