TEUTON VICTORY
A CRUSHING ONE
Beat ROumanianS and Rus
slams in Series of Violent
Battles in WaIlachia.

BERLIN. Tuesday. Nov. % (by
wireless to Sayville). Nov. 23.-After
long silence imposed by the direct
wish of Gen. Falkennayn, who did
not wish TO have any hopes raised
by premature accounts of his opera
tons, descriptions of the momentOus
victory OF the Teutonic forces in the
battle Of Tirgufalij, which broke the
resistance of the Russo ROumanian
armies in western Wallachia and
opened the way to the Roumanian
plain, are now available. The bat
tie was fought from Nov. 10 TO Il,
after the German and AustrO-Hun-
garian forces. in a week of steady
cOmbats, had forced their way from
the SUBMITS of the mountains on
the Roumanian-T Pennsylvania from
tier TO the foot Of the Alpine regions,
mastering the armOred turrets of the
permanent frontier fortihcations
with big mOrtars and breaking the
Roumanian resistance wherever it
was encountered.
Elected from the wild, mountain
Gus regions to the rolling foothills
beyond. the Roumanians, who by
now had received heavy Russian re-
Inducements. elected TO stand on
the range Of hills running east and
west and lying south of Tirgujiulij,
the first important town south of the
mountain. The position was natur-
ally strong and a heavy fog enabled
the Roumanians to take up their
positions unmOlested by the pur-
suers.
Battle Lasts Three Days.
The German and Austro- Hungar-
ian forces attacked them with fer
vOr and after three days of heaviest
fighting, crushed their way by front
al attacks through the middle of the
Roumanian line from the jul 10 the
F'ilort rivers. The Roumanian losses
in the battle are described as very
heavy.
The German cavalry had been
held in readiness behind the line
and the squadrons now poured
through the breach and raced down
through the valley towards the rail-
road SO miles away, driving before
them the fleeing Russians and Rou-
manians and breaking the efforts al
resistance of all but the strongest
units which still held together. These
were hustled on by pursuing infan-
try columns, which, like the cavalry,
made all possible speed to utilize
their advantage.

Military Plans Of Central

a Mystery


London. Jan. S The Russian cam
Ipaign in Bessarapfa takes an undeni-
able first place in the war news with
the announcement in a news agency
dispatch from Petrograd that the Aus
H~tro-German forces have ~evacuatad
Czernowltz, which had become unten-
able because of the Russian capture
or the heights surrounding the city.
Czemowitz IS undoubtedly a valu-
able vantage point for a further nus

portant railway from Czernowitz to
z~alestchitlSy, while the line from
czernowitz to Kolomea is seriously
menaced.
Czernowitz has changed hands four
times since the beginning Of the war.
The military Plans Of the central
powers in the near east are still yelled
in mystery. According TO these 9
ports. the central empires have only
thirteen infantry divisions available
for such service and unless Bulgaria
supplies the deficiency it would be
sheer madness, French critics believe,
for them to attack the forces Of the
entente allies III their entrenched po-
In Albania there has been much APP
parent activity with relatively small
military results. Perhaps the most
important event in Albania is the dec
laration Of war by Essad Pasha
against Austria and Germany. This
irregular chieftain is erratic but an
u%ndisputed military genius with q
and loyal following, and he is
reported to be well supplied with guns
and munitions.
England has continued her colonial
warfare with success in Kamerun,
1t is officially reported that the
German base has been occupied by
British forces.
French troops also are known to
be ~conyerging upon Jaunde from the
east and southeast SO that the fee

ARMAMENT, QUERY

NAnAH I.AIHH
washington, p. d. Jan. Priest
dent Wilson conferred with Secretary
Lansing for an hour today over the
submarine crisis.
No additional facts beyond the det-
knowledge that only two Ameri-
were aboard the liner Persia had
been received by the state depart
ment over night from either Ambagsa-
dor Penfeld, or Ambassador Gerard at
Berlin, or American consular agents
along the shores of the Mediterran-
can. Such information as had already
been received, however, was carefully
reviewed by both the president and
MIR. Lansing. There still was every
indication that no action would be
taken pending receipt Of fuller adj
vices. Whether the status Of the PER-
sia was changed from an unarmed
liner to that of a vessel which might
technically be classified as armed BY
the fact that she mounted one gun, is
a point which United States navy ex-
perts will be called upon to help de-
termine. Oficial dispatches received
today from the American consul at
MarseilIes advised that only one
American is among the missing pas
sengers Robert N. McNeeley, newly
appointed American consul at Aden
Chas. H. Grant, the other American
passenger, was rescued.

CABINET CRISIS
IN ENGLAND YET
FAR FROM Ended
MEMBER RESIGNS
Secretary Of State For
Home Affairs Quits
His Position
.PREMIER'S FIX
is EMBARRASSING

London, Jan. 4 f3:35 p. m AN
nouncement was made III the house
OF commons today Of the resignation
Eof sir John Simon secretary OF state
for home affairs
1t again becomes evident that the
cabinet crisis ii far from Sended.
Simon had d prolonged interview
with President Asauith yesterday.
The premier did his utmost 10 induce
Sir John to remain in the cabinet but
without ayaIl. The position Of Reg.
'inald McKenna. chancellor of the eff.
chcquer, and Walter Runcimans pres
idenf Of the board Of trade, is, still
undecided They are making the ac-
ceptance of the government compul-
sion bill conditional upon securing a
concession to their views on the
eventual size OF the army. In this
matter, Premier Asquith is in an EN-.
~barrassing position. He is being
strongly i1npeEled from the outside
not to yield this point and it Is be.
lieved that a majority in the cabinet
itself is against their views.
The treatment Of Ireland is another
thorny problem and the conflicting
statements regarding this matter may
be an Indication Of the struggle
which will go on in the cabinet this
morning, All the papers, both con-
scriptionists and supporters Of vohin-
ttary enlistment. agree that ireland
will be excluded from. the operation
Of the bill and that the press associa-
tion statement that ireland would be
included was inaccurate.
