caused by an infiamed condition Of the

Deafness is tho result. Unless the in

 The Teutons have crossed the Argechu river. but Petrograd and Bucharest assert that southwest of the capital the Russians and Ruman- ians have forced the retirement of the Teutons and taken prisoners and booty. Berlin says that here a Ru- manian force was thrown back with heavy casualties.
 Hard fighting continues along the border of Bukowina, with both sides claiming the advantage.
 On none of the other fronts has there been any great infantry activity An attack by the entente forces north west of Monastir Saturday was put down. according to Berlin Italians are claiming an advance of 800 meters over front of two-thirds of a mile on the Carso sector of the AustrO Italian front d maneuvre which straightened out the Italian line.

ALLIES AGAINST
 CHINESE JOAN
 FROM THE J. 5.
(Repubiicar A. p. Leased Wire1

Republican A. p. Leased Wirel
 WASHINGTON, Dec 3.-The Brit. ish, French and Japanese ministers at Peking it became known here today, are supporting the bankers of their countries in protests to China against the s5.000, 900 loan arranged by that government with a Chicago bank. Members of the former quituple group complained recently in Peking against the new American loan on the ground that it violated the agreement of lSl3.
 The information today that the bankers are being supported by their governments caused surprise at both the state departments and the Chinese legation, neither of which had official confirmation.
 It is explained, however that prac- tically all loans or financial arrange ments with China are liable to some sort of complaint by other interested parties, and that in the present in- stance every care was taken not to violate previous agreements. Section 17 of the agreement which is alleged to have been violated, refers, 1t is pointed out, to loans based on the salt tax. while the present loan was se- cured by the tobacco and wine taxes. and is for industrial purposes. There fore. it is not felt here that there is any good basis for protest especially as. with the coming of the European war, the quintuple group virtually was destroyed through the withdrawal of German bankers and the inability of the others to meet many requests for loans.
 The present loan is said to have been over-subscribed three times be- fore the books were closed, and it is thought practically certain that second will follow shortly. The Picking parliament. in approving this transaction, authorized American loans to Q total of $50, 1000. 600. which has been the amount understood to be de- sired by China.

From the beginning of the war, wishing to spa~ human iives-and suffering we and our allies did our utmost to restrain Turkey from par ticipatioa in hosutlities Turkey re- ceived formal asurances guaranteeing her, in exchange for neutrality, the in- tegrity of her territory and indepen- dence and also conferring upon her certain priyiliges and advantages. These efforts were vain. Turkey sur reptitously attacked us.
 We then concluded an agreement with our allies. which established the right of Russia to the straits and Con- stantinople. Russians should know for they are shedding blood, and in accord with our allies, announcement of this agreement is made today from this tribune
