CAR RUSHES
RUMANIA AID
Reinforced Russians
May Strike Flank
of Falkenhayn

London. Nov. 23.-The situation IN
Rumania still is veiled in mystery, with
the fate of King Fedinand's troops at
Orsova still in the balance. But from
Berlin comes this significant announce
ment:
"On the eastern border Of Transyl-
vania the Russians have been REIN
| forced"
This statement may explain the con-
fdence in high circles here despite the
serious situation created by the German
occupation of Craiova and the swift
advance that cut off the Rumanians on
the west For Rumania, in the hasty
withdrawal in Western Wallachia, may
be pursuing the same tactics that guild
ed the Austrans in their retreat last
summer before the Pumanian invaders
of Pennsylvania.
Rumania's hope Of salvation has been
the Russian armies. II the Cars troops
can launch heavy blow from the Mol
davian line they will imperil Falken-
hayn's flank and so force his with
drawal from Wallachia.
Falkenhayn's Strength Is Issue
The announcement that the Russians
are strengthening their line along the
eastern border leads increased strength
to the feeling that such move is
planned. Whether Falkenhayn has suf-
ficient forces to repel that stroke is the
vital issue.
Bucharest at length has broken si-
lence. She announces the withdrawal
of the Rumanian armies in the jul
Valley to their old positions" but
makes no mention Of the evacuation OF
Craiova.
The German and Russian communica-
tons report little change, Berlin claim
ing the capture of 300 railway trucks in
Craiova.
Few deductions are drawn from these
statements, but there seems to be no
doubt that a considerable Rumanian
force is still holding Orsova and, IL de-
feated, will face perilous situation.
Rumanians Destroy Bridge
As If to anticipate a Bulgarian at
tempt to strike into Rimania from the
south the Rumanians have blown up the
bi idge at Carabia, the end Of the rail-
way line that runs from the Danube 20
the Craiova- B bucharest road.
This is held by some observers to in
dicate that King Ferdinand's troops are
in straits, but the general feeling Of
optimism is growing. 1t is believed
that the Allied troops in the Dobrudja
will attack Mackensen before long.
They advanced along the Black Sea
coast to-day, capturing two towns and
driving nearer to Constanza.
Bucharest reports that the winter has
set in weeks earlier than usual. Heavy
snow has fallen in Transylvania and the
Alps and intense cold prevails every
where

Two men were arrested last night
charged with stealing the s65,ooo
worth of jewels which Mrs. Z. II. Har-
riman discovered she had lost wnen
she dressed for the opera on the even
ing of November 13. 1t was announced
that the police had recovered part Oh
the stolen property and that detectives
had learned where the rest was hidden
and were hunting for it.
Orville Daggett, one Of the men ar
rested. is employed in the Hartman
National Bank. 1t was in her safe de-
posit box at that bank that Mrs. harri-
man had placed the black bag whicn
she supposed contained the jewels i@s'
March. The bag had lain on her dress-
inc table over night and she deposited
il unopened, thus making it uncertain
whether the thieves obtained the gems
from her house at Fifth Avenue aho
sixtv-ninth Street, or from the bank

Although c. c. Tegethoff, manager
~ the estate, was informed tnat the
men had been arrested and some oi tne
ioweIs recovered he refused to tell
what had been discovered about the
tbef, or how it happened that one Oh
the alleged thieves had been arres'eu
at the Office of the estate. There was
rumor that others were concerned

old and lives at Az Quincy street.

sa;d 70 be his brother, is forty-two
wars old and lives at Larchmont.
Secrecy Marks Arrest
When the jewels were stolen the
value placed upon them was $6o'ooo.
On the blotter at Headquarters. how
ever. the value is placed at S6o,ooo.
The same secrecy which surrounds
the arrest and the reported recovery OF
"some" of the jewels was displayed
when the loss was made known last
week. 1t was not until after the Pm
kerton Detective Agency had worked
on the case for two days that the po-
I;ce were notified and the vanishing
Of the precious stones became public.
Detectives were assigned to the case
without the knowledge of their su-
perior, and, it was said, reported prog
ress to a man higher than he.
Although the gems were insured with
several companies, there was some
doubt as to whether anything couio
be recovered, owing to the mystery
which surrounded their disappearance.
The companies, it was said. were liable
only if the stones were stolen from
Mrs. Harriman's house. and there
seemed to be at least a possibility that
they had been stolen from the harn-
man National Bank.
