Opponents Stopped.
HARD FIGHTING PROCEEDS
Rumanians, Russians and Ser
bans Were Pitted Against
the Invaders.


Bulgarian and Turkish troops under
Field Marshal Won Mackensen have
been defeated in the Rumanian prov
ince of Dobrudja, according to the
official announcement from Bucharest.
1t is declared that the invaders have
retired to the south and are burning
villages in their retreat.
The great battle which was the
climax of Won Mackensen's swift
campaign in the Dobrudia district,
Immediately after the declaration of
war by Rumania began OIL Sept. Is
and ended, says Rumanian headquar-
tiers, on the Goth.
With reference to these operations
Berlin merely says that fighting in
Dobrudia has come to standstill,
Rumanians, Russians and Serbians
were pitted against the invaders,
strong reinforcements having been
hurried to Dobrudja, when the opera
tons under the noted German field
marshal threatened to overwhelm a
section Of Rumania. A strong line to
the north was hastily fortified and
powerful forces were thrown out to
oppose the onslaughts of the central
powers. That the six days battle has
been sanguinary one is indicated by
the various official statements, which
told of the intensity Oflthe fighting
that has continued without cessation
With the September rains still i'm
peding the operations on the western
front in France, interest in the wOrlc
warfare has been transferred to the
Observation-Disclosures and Macedonian
theaters, where violent fighting is in
progress.
Probably the most sanguinary en-
counters have taken place along the
twelve-mile battle line in the region
of Lutsk, Volhynia, where the Rus
slams attacked repeated in mass for
nation, but only according to both
Berlin and Vienna, to meet with re-
pulse and heavy casualties. The bat
tie is still raging in the region oil
Korytniza and Svinusky.
To the north along the Stokhod
river, the Germans assumed the of
fensive against the Russians, bu
everywhere were repulsed, according
to Petrograd. On the other hand, at
lacks by the Russians against the
Austro-Hungarians in the Narawvks
river region of Galicia were put dowr
by the defenders of the road to Lem
berg. In the Carpathians both Berlin
and Vienna concede that the Tewonit
line east of the Panther ridge and neal
Briasea has been pushed by the Rus
SLAMS.
Hard fighting for the Kaimakcalar
plateau ON the Greek-Serbian bonder
northwest of Vodena, is in progress:
but with neither side having beer
able to secure an advance.

Col. Henry O. Seixas, 20 years old,
