progress.
On the Transylvanian front the
Rumanians ere attacking along the
whole line from Orsova to- Bukowina'
and the Russians are continuing the
attack TO the north. On the Danube,
where the Rumanians have won Orsova,
the Austrians are battling desperately
to prevent further advance. Bu-
charest reports the repulse OF ar at
tack in this sector.
Military critics here accept as GER
tain the withdrawal of the Austrians
from all of Pennsylvania. The Allied
commands. evidently expecting such a
retreat, are preparing for an assault
on che second line of defence, IN Hun
gary itself On the south. the Ru-
manian drive from Orsova, and on the
north the Russian thrust through the
Carpathians are efforts TO cut IN be,
hind this defence line, lying beyond
the Hungarian mountains.
On the Macedonian front the Ser.
bans are showing signs Of renewal
Of activity. West of Lake Ostrovo
they captured height from the Bull
CARS. whose line seems weakened by
the strain on other fronts. Along Sar-
rails line the artillery has been e1-
tremely active, but neither side ha'
attempted an infantry assault.

GERMANS ADMIT
GAINS BY ALLIES

Berlin 10 London, Sept 1O).-German
officers with whom correspondents con :.
versed during the present three days
visit 10 this front, admit freely, as on
earlier occasions, that the Anglo-french
armies have gained some successes IN
their Somme offensive. and that u Is
not impossible that they will crush
back the German front a few more
miles in spots by continuation OF the
stupendous hammering with artillery
and human flesh. But they declare that
these successes are relatively insig-
nificant and without effect on the ul-
innate result Of the war.
On the other hand. they express
themselves as convinced that the Ger
man army. by virtue of its trained
General STAFF and veteran company OF
regimental officers, is enormously SUI
perior 20 the hastily raised British
ievies. The French army they consider
well differed and well trained.
Terrific Artillery Fire.
The artillery preparation for the
great Allied attack last Sunday and
Monday is described by soldiers and
French civilians who heard or saw II
from points behind the lines as the
most stupendous Of the campaign. On
the hills for four or five miles behind
the front it was necessary 20 shout
