lintiy ot Itumanl.i Into the Kuropean
war is believed Imminent. The strictest

country, but the report has reached here
that Grrtiriny has acknowledged Inability j
to persuade tliimnnln to Join with the i
Austi Inn-German forces and that the Get'

It Is believed bete I'.iimanin will inst

The gmntest Importance Is uttaclo-d hv j
the Ftenoh Government to tlu leslgn.i
tlon of the Itimianlan t'nblnot, espclnlly I
as It mnjd'.fi with the sending of a
mission f;om that countiy to confer with j
the Italian Government. ThN lendi be
lled to the piobabillty that Itumanla Is
only awaiting 11 favornblo opportunity lo
Join with the allies against Germany anil
Austria-Hungary.
Rumania.' attitude Is boat explained by
Mr. Dlamnudv, one ot the Itumanlan dh
gates, who Is in Rom", and who Is re
poited to have said that while Itumanla
Is ncuttal at present, tho Rumanians enn
not permit nnv oppmtunlty to pass
whetoby they may he ablo to obtain their
natlonat aims.
Rulgatia, loo, Is repot tod ns showing
signs of sympathy with Russia and a do
sire to go to war. As soon as the new.s
of Russian victories was made public
many demonstrations against Austria
were made.
The result of the mission tiom Rumania
to Italy is being watch.d with much I11
tetest. It Is the general opinion among
French Government otlh ials that sooner
or later the neutral policy of Italy will
have to give wav to one of action be
cause of public opinion, which is n ported
to be strongly In favor of war.
The Balkan States ar In s.vmpathy
with tlte ulllea and oulv await a favoiublo
and plausible opportunity to open hostili

nmy. They nlread.v have made a com
pact to declare for the allies If Tuikey
