army is advancing into Hungary. The
first important victory of the fifteenth
power to enter the European war Is ad-
mitted by Vienna In an official state
ment which says the Austro- Hungarian
troops, which claimed the advantage in
the initial clash with the new belliger-
ent yesterday, have been forced to re-
treat
This announcement, coupled with n
statement earlier in the day that the
Bulgarians have blown up several
bridges across the, Danube, indicates
that the rush of the Roumanians has
put the Teutons Oh the defensive at
all points. The blowing up of the
Danube bridges is interpreted as
meaning that the Teutons have given
up all hope Of an Invasion of ROu-
mania and an advance across the Daff-
ube against Bucharest and are con
tent to put what obstacles they may
in the way of RoulnanIan invasion Of
eastern Hungary. which Is already
meuaced by the Russian drive through

The power of the new offensive
against the central powers rapidly
gained strength, the entry of Russian
troops into Roumanla with the pur-
pose of moving against Bulgaria from
this new direction, having further COM
pllcated the defensive task of the CEN
trail powers. These Russian forces are
believed to be directed against the
railroad communication between the
central powers and COnstantinople, the
cutting of which would be terrific
blow to the Turks and would open the
way for land attack which Is expect
ed to be the opening wedge in the task
of clearing the Dardanelles and open

Admiral Benson Suggests
System of Coastal Canals
and Inland Waterways.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept l5.-Con-
struction of great system of inland
waterways and coastal canals for com
mercial use in time of peace ana TO
meet an imperative need in war was
advocated by Admiral Benson, chlef
of naval operations, in speech mere
tonight before the Atlantic Deeper
Waterways association. The value OF
such a system, the admiral declared,
would Justify a bond issue 70 help pay

Admiral Benson reminded the con-
vention of the recently threatened
railroad strike, poining out how 1t
would have affected progress Of the
nations first line defense.
"The threat to stop rail transporta-
tion stimulated war conditions. Realiz-
ing this, the navy department set
about to devise ways of getting its
supplies other than by railroad.
"'rhc vital points from which
transportation must be secured We're
found to be the Great Lakes. Schcn-

Lehigh canal gave us relief from
