RUSSIANS GET PRISONERS
Invaders Are Meeting With
Strong Resistance In
Moldavia.

Except for narrow strip of land
projecting into the Danube marshes
towards the Moldavian town of Gal
atz, all Of Dobrudia has been cleared
by the Teutonic allies Of Russians and
Rumanian troops. After the fall OF
Matchin and Jipila, the defenders be-
gan retreat across the Danube to-
ward Braila and, according to Berlin,
force Of Russian rear guards on the
peninsula projecting toward Galatz
comprises the only entente troops
now in Rumania between the Danube
river and the Black sea.
In Moldavia the Teutonic allies, not
withstanding the heavy SHOWS, are
continuing their invasion of the coun-
try from the south and west, although
along the front Of Field Marshal Won
Mackensen in the former region they
are meeting with strong resistance at
various points from the Russian and
Rlmanian troops.
In the wooded Carpathians the Rus
slams in an attack captured from the
Germans an advanced position north
Of Meste-Canesci. Petrograd reports
that in this fighting the Russians took
600 men prisoners and captured three
cannons, seven machine guns and
other war material.
On the other fronts the operations
are still confined TO reciprocal bonn
bardments and engagements between
small accommodating parties. In Gal
icia, the Austro-Germans delivered
several attacks against the Russians
but they proved unsuccessful.
An English transport was sunk in
the Mediterranean.

Still Hopes to Bring About
Real Peace Nego-
tiations.
TO MAKE POSITION CLEAR
II Present Effort Fails He viii
Try at Last Another Ef-
fort at Cancellation.

Washington, Jan. 5.-lfthe entente
reply to President Wilson's peace
note fails to meet his proposals for an
early occasion for an avowal Of terms,
the president will not let the negotia-
tons drop but will make at least one
more move.
If another communication is sent it
is expected to make more clear the
position Of the president, as it is felt
that as a result of comment abroad
and in the United States and the de-
bate in the senate, more or less con-
fusion has arisen as to just what he
intended.
President Wilson'S chief hope in
the ultimate success of the negotia-
tons is known to lie in the sugges-
ton that means be found for main
tanning peace in the future. If an
agreement on that point can be reach
ed, the president is said to feel it
would constitute the guarantee for
the future" demanded by the entente
allies and it might be possible then to
return toward settlement fthe pres
eht conflict.
