whose army has been fighting its way
across the Transylvanian Alps, has
effected junction with the army un-
der Won Mackensen near the town of
Alexandria, ~ miles southwest Of
Bucharest.
The Rumanian front has apparently
been broken and King Ferdinand's
troops are reported to be retreating
towards the east, burning towns and
villages in their flight. An entire cav
airy division Of Rumanians which was
fighting rear guard action was re-
pulsed by the victorious Teutons and
forced to fall back on the main body
of the retreating army.
The junction of the two German
armies was effected when the army
under Won Mackensen succeeded in
crossing the Danube, the natural
southern and eastern barrier of Ru-
mania. The dangerous crossing was
made under the personal supervision
of Maekensen.
Despite the fact that large force
of Russians were thrown into the Dob
rudja district to support the Ruman-
ians and that Makensen's right wing
was heavily bombarded by the Rus
sian fleet from the Black Sea, the at
tack against Mackensen in this dis
trict proved to be complete failure.
