PEROGRAD, Dec. 4 G:30 p. m. via
London, 9:22 p. m).-The timely
arrival Of Russian troops before Bu-
charest at the critical moment when
the loss of the capital seemed almost
certain has somewhat changed the
Rumanian situation. According to
military opinion here the Rumanians
now have 1T least fighting chance to
retain their capital.
According TO information received
here from Bucharest the German plan
Of encircling Bucharest was perilously
near TO accomplishment when 1t struck
an unexpected obstacle in the form or
a Russian force tetween bucharest
and the Danube.
thanking movement was par
tiallv successful when the Teutonic
forces, advancing from Lake Greca,
encountered a sudden stiffening in the
resistance of the Rumanians due to
the arrival of Russian troops, and
were compelled to retire in disorder.
Emplacements had already been COM
pleted for the big guns which were to
lombard the Bucharest fortifications.
Executing a hastY retreat the Germans
and Bulgarians had to abandon guns
of all calihers aud large quantity or
war material.

In congress has been called to con-
slider the matter of recommending to

Scores Of kilograms to members of

believe that a man should be appoint
ed who is familiar with conditions in
the old Indian territory, from when
