vance, are two of the most important
cities in Pennsylvania They are near
the southern border OF Hungary. the
first about six miles from the Rumanian
frontier and the last about fifteen
miles from the frontier. Kronstadt is
seventy miles east-southeast Of Her

Kronstadt is the most important
commercial and manufacturing center

large part of the population of both
cities. The Austrian statement de-

'treacherous."
Invasion Of Hungary Imminent.
PARIS, August 2s.-The invasion Of
Hungary by Russians and Rumanians
is not only possible. says Lieut. Col.
Rousset, the military critic Of La Lib
erte, but it is imminent.
Gen. Letchitzky. the Russian COM
mander in Galicia," the writer adds,
''holds nearly 100 kilometers (sixty
mi.es) Of ridges from the source OF the
two ByStr1tzaS toward RagalloW as far
as Kir1ibaba. He will easily aid the
Rumanians who, on entering Transyl-
vania, will certainly envelop the army
of Gen. Koevess II the latter does not
retreat quickly. Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg will be unable to help him,
as from the Dniester river to the Stok-
hod Gen. Brussiloft Is holding Won
Hindenburg solidly."
1t is estimated that the effective
strength Of the army whcih can be
modified by Rumania is about 100000
men, including ten regiments of Red
Hussars and ten of Black Hussars, with
artillery aggregating $50 seventy-fve
millimeter guns, $50 field guns belong
ing to the reserve and a number Of
heavy guns.

hour after the President had left the
Capitol. They hurried from their hotel
on foot to the executive mansion and
arrived shortly after o'clock. while
the President was at dinner Their
conference with the President was
brief. He handed one copy of the rail-
roads counter proposal to A. B. Gar
retson. spokesman for the employees,
and said that he would not discuss 1t in
any way. Conversation about the strike
order followed. and then the brother
hood heads departed.
Every effort was made to keep the
call at the White House secret. The
union heads returned to their hotel
singly and by separate routes.
News that copies of the strike order
sent out Sunday was in the hands of
the railway presidents occasioned no
surprise among the brotherhoods.
After it became known that they sus-
pected three Of their number of acting
as spies for the railroad heads they
said frankly that they expected the
strike order soon would be in their en-
ployers' hands. More than 5000 copies
Of the order. it was learned. were

There was one traitor among the
twelve disciples" one of the brother
hood heads said. "and our average ap-
pears to be higher than that"
Several Dates Considered.
Labor day was agreed upon as the
time for the tentative strike order to
become operative, it developed today,
after careful consideration of several
dates. 1t finally was chosen because of
the belief that demonstration by the
100000 or more union men who will
march in Labor day parades in behalf
of the brotherhoods would have the eff
feet of winning much public support
for the strikers. By Labor day, also,
the strike order will have been scat
tered to ali points on all divisions in
the country. The last of the delegates
who left here Sunday will have reached
their homes by next Friday night.
Although the strike order is for O'Clock
next Monday morning. all lines affected
probably would not be tied up before
some time that night, il the order were
released.
Every member of the brotherhood.
whether an employe on passenger. freight
or mail train, is subject to the strike
order. Brotherhood heads intimated last
week that supply trains running to the
Mexican border. some passenger trains
and possibly some milk trains would be
exempted. Last night they declared that
all trains would be tied up.

Little is known here of the, intentions
OF the central powers toward Rumania;

Expects Bulgaria to Act.
Bulgaria undoubtedly will follow the
lead Of Germany in declaring war on
Rumania. in the opinion Of Count Ernst
Won Reventlow, the naval expert Of the
Tages Zeitung. Commenting on The ac-
ton Of Rumania Won Reventlow writes.
TT may be assumed with certainty
that Germany and her allies had count
ed upon Rumania's participation In the
war and have taken measures in ad-
vance. In view Of the geoEraphical sit
uation the presumption Is permissible
that military developments are .fmmt-
nenG It was certain that the German
empire would regard the cause Of its
Austro- HUNGARIAN allies as its own. AL
lied Bulgaria undoubtedly will do the
same. The allies will meet the new
enemy, who once was befriended by the
central powers. with whom he even had
a treaty alliance, and who, after two
years of purposefu1 waiting and dscep-
ton, now enters the camp of our enc

The Vossische Zeitung asserts that '.the
meddling Of Rumania In the war means
for Bulgaria a new military and political
objective"

The Washington Gas Light Company
said that it could go considerable
time on the coal now on hand. Mr..
King, president of the Potomac Elec-
trio Power Company, declared that his
company has q large supply Of coal.
Inquiry revealed this supply to be
about 1000 tons, enough to last about
twenty days.
Twenty Days Supply. --
Coal dealers declare that there is al

stored in the city to last twenty days
at the farthest were all ingress Of coal
cut off. =
"If the strike were called Labor dag.
and the coal in transit to Washington
was stopped. there would not be more
than ten days coal supply, in my
opinion" declared one dealer today. "If
the coal in transit were allowed to be
delivered there would then probably be
enough coal in Washington to last for
about twenty days."

It was evident today that the strike
situation is viewed by some as STAR,

as more imminent. Several local con-
Eumers Of coal in a large way seemed

declaring that several particularly we'll
