"PeacefuLPenefrQtion"
Of Rur1aria by Huns
Going Ahead RAPIDLY

Correspondence of The Associated Press)
LONDON, June 24.-Germany's
plans for peaceful penetration" in
Rumania have gone ahead very rap
idly since the signing of the treaty
of peace. According to advices from
an authoritative source in Rumania the
resumption OF railway traffic with the
districts occupied by the Central
Powers was followed by a great in
rush of German merchants. politicians
and intriguers.
Within few weeks the pushing and
overbearing Germans had become so
much in evidence in Jassy that the
Queen and the Crown Prince, felt
compelled to leave the city. The
Royal family is now living in what
amounts to self-imposed exile in the
remote frontier village of Bicaz. Here.
IN the depths of the Carpathian for
ests, the royal family is living in an
old hunting lodge of King Fer
dinand's.
An Associated Press correspondent
lately returned from Rumania visited
Bicaz during a tour of the Carpathian
front last year. 1t is a struggling
hamlet of perhaps a dozen houses,
without railway connection or even
a good road. 1t is best approached on
horseback over mountain trail from
Piatra Namsk, the trail striking
Bicaz soon after it enters tho pict.
uresque valley of the River Trotus.
The Kings hunting lodge stands on a
slight elevation overlooking the val
ley and the river

Congratulates Italv
Recent Victory Points to AL
lies Final Success, State
ment Saws

PARIS, July 5.-The Supreme Allied
War Council held it's seventh session
to-day. All the aspects of the present
military situation were considered and
important decisions were reached. ac-
cording to an official statement issued
at it's close.
Among those present were Premiers
Clemenceau, Lloyd George and Or

Secretary Of State for Foreign Affairs;
Nlscount Miner, British War Minister;
Baron Sonnino, Italian Foreign Min

shall Haig and Major General Sir Henry
Wilson, OF the British army; General
John j. Pershing, of the American
army, and General Guillain, of the Bel
gan army, as well as representatives of
the other Allies at Versailles.
Sincere congratulations to the Italian
army and people for the memorable
victory over the Austro- Hungarian
army were expressed at the meeting.
1t was said it is considered that the
victory won by the Italians at the criti-
cal turning point of the war brings a
valuable contribution to the Allies eff
forts and points to the final success of
their cause.
One of the features of the session
was the presence Of the Prime Min

early advent of the "everlasting reign

Question Now Regarded by
u. S. as a Purely Mill
tary Problem
Supreme War Council
To Announce Action
Plans, Meanwhile, Are Be
ing Worked Out for
American Economic
Mission

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Russia con-
tinues to be the subject of earnest
consideration by the Administration,
most daily exchanges of opinion be-
tween Washington and the Entente
capitals through their respective en-
bassies here and through other chan
nels of a less official character
There are military reasons why pub
licity of the steps in these negotiations
should be avoided lest the common en-
emy take advantage of any decision
that may be reached
The United States government has
regarded the proposition strongly
urged by some of the Entente powers
for the dispatch to Siberia of an in
ternational army. in which America
should be largely represented. as a
purely military problem.
Decision Rests with Foch
Consequently, it is understood now
that the decision virtually rests with
General Foch and the supreme war
council. and it is regarded as probable
that decision may be announced soon.
Meanwhile. as part of the general
project for relief to Russia, details
of the plan for the peaceful penetra-
ton of Russia and Siberia by promi
nent American business men. with the
purpose of afording economic and ma
terial aid to the people. are now being
worked out. and an announcement of
the personnel OF the men to go is ex-
pected in the near future.
A delayed dispatch from 1rkutsk,
dated June % and received at the State
Department to-day. said all commun-
cation with Vologda, Moscow and sew
eral places in Western Siberia had
been cut off for several days. The de-
partment's last report from Ambassa-
dor Francis, at Vologda, was dated
June "a.
Delays Are Encountered
Great delay is being encountered in
securing any reliable information re-
garding the conditions in the Arctic
province of Archangel.
1t is realized that a considerable
Finnish German force could easily
seize strategic points of the railroad
IUillIlLS SOUJu from AICHdHSeI ana n ola
to Vologda, and indeed it is said that
already the invaders have arrived at
Kim, near the White Sea.
A successful movement of this kind
might defeat any Entente plan TO send
military force into Central Russia
from the north.
Although as long as the Entente feet
is able to navigate in the Arctic the
little force of sailors and marines at
Kola and vicinity would be safely sup
ported, the advent of winter probably
would make it necessary to withdraw
this force.
Press reports from Stockholm pre-
dieting the adhesion of Finland to the
Central Powers alliance are as yet un-
confirmed officially.

Rur,1ania Ready
To Ratify Treaty;
Must Await Austria

AMSTERDAM, July 5.-Peace be-
tween Rumania and the Central Powers
probably will not be ratified until the
autumn, says DR.. Edgar Won Schmidt
PAUL., the special commissioner in Ru-
mania of the "Berliner Tageblatt." Ru-
mania is quite ready, he says, to rat
ify the agreement, but the Austrian
Parliament does not meet until August
and there are several points on which
there is opposition from Bulgaria and
Turkey which must be cleared up.
Meanwhile Field Marshal Won Mack
ensen.s army command gradually is
transferring power to the Rumanian
authorities. such as the administration
OF banks, law courts and customs, but
agricultural control remains in German
hands.
The wheat crop at some places has
been burned the correspondent contin-
ues, but elsewhere the crop is good, s.
that the average will be fair. The corn
crop is badly in need Of rain, but the
vineyards promise an excellent yield.
The occupying forces have been
drafted according to the peace treaty
into quarters. The Germans occupy
the territory from Turnseverin along
the new Hungarian frontier to the
Sereth River. while the Austrians are
in control of the district from Turn
severin eastward along the Danube.
The correspondent adds that friction
occasionally arises with the Rumanian
authorities, but in the words of
Premier Marghiloman of Rumania, tall
VIII come right with patience and good
will"
The correspondent further says that
while the sincere intentions of the
present Rumanian leaders cannot be
doubted, yet the ruling classes are so
infected with "pre-war corruption that
the application of an iron broom is
neccSSary"

Kuehlrnann Suit to
Be Secret for Fear
Of lrnperilling State
Editor Accused of Libel
Predicts Early Removal
of Foreign Secretary

AMSTERDAM, July s. --- Because
publicity might endanger the security
of the state, the president Of the court
which is to hear testimony in the
libel suit Of DR.. Richard Won Kuehl-
mann, the Foreign Secretary, against
two Berlin editors announced at the
opening session Of the trial Thurs
day that the case would be heard in
secret. This action was taken after
the president of the court had failed
to obtain compromise between the
Foreign Secretary and the defendants,
Max Lohan, editor Of the "Deutsche
Zeitung," and Julius Dunckc, editor Of
the "Deutsche Blaetter."
When the case was called large
number of we'll known German politi-
cal leaders were in attendance. Among
the number were Foreign Secretary
Won Kuehlmann, Vice Chancellor Won
Payer, Herr Nollenberg, director of
the Deutsche Bank, and Major Won
Kessler, of the German Foreign
Office.
Addressing the accused editors, the
president Of the court asked whether
it was not possible to settle the mat
ter by loyal explanations on the part
of the plaintiff. Herr Lohan replied:
"We have no interest in washing
dirty linen under the gaze of enemy
countries. Above all it is quite re-
mote from our intention to dish up
bedroom secrets, but in the interest
of the country and the Foreign Office
the case should proceed
"The article I have to answer for
aims at the removal of DR.. Won Kuehl-
mann as a politically harmful person
and | possess certain guarantee
that at no distant date DR.. Won
to- give him an explanation in his
private capacity as l had no intcn-
tiQn to atfront him in his private
capacity.'
Herr Duncke said he agreed with
the statement of Herr Lohan. The
president of the court then declared
that his attempt to mediate had failed
as the Foreign Secretary certainly
would not give an explanation in
view of the attitude of the editors.
The public prosecutor then de-
mandcd that the case be heard in
secret. The motion was opposed by
counsel for the defendant, after which
the court adjourned to consider the
question.
When the hearing was resumed the
resident announced the public would
be excluded from the trial and thai
only the Imperial Chancellor or his
representative would be allowed in
the court room. The court then ad-
journed the trial for an indetermnate
period.
