'Will Be United Against
Turkey.
BUCHAREST, numnnln. Sept 21
High odlcial circle today declared Hu
mania had now tltially decided to partici
pate In the war on the lle of the Allies
It Is stated that th new Cabinet 1ms at
last !ucceedrd In overeomlnK the opposi
tion Of Klni; Carol, at least to the extent
ut ngrielng to the mobilization of the
Itumpnlan nrmy. Orders to thH effect
huvo been Ismied and the mobilization will
take place within n. week.
The, military council believes that Tin
manli will declare war and at once will
proceed to the occupation of Transyl
vania. The army li anxious to set Into
action. It Is In excellent hape, having
kept out of the Balkan strusRle. The
King, however, has opposed ItumnnU'
elding against Oonnan for family rea
sons. He Is a Hohenzollern, son of the
late Prince Karl of Hohenzollern-Slgma-rlngen.
His family Interest"?, even his
prjvato fortune, are entirely German.
Practlcallv all the money is Invested
In Oormany. Heports that he was to ab
dicate have been widely circulated and
there Is a strong belief here that If the
tVnr Office carries the day he will with
draw from Rumania.
The Kreat obstacle to a united Balkan
confederacy agnln-st Cermanv and Autrln
has been BuigailH. The latter lus been
Inclined to smpathl?e with Oormany. Her
armies have had the aslstarce of German
mtlltary experts. The (Jtrm.in diplomatic
methods have nwde a favorable Impres
sion. And Germany had confidently "
pected that Bulsarii would sld with
Turkey and In her favor If It became
necessary.
The Czar was quick to realize this fact.
He rushed confidential agents to Bulgaria
and thev at first pleaded for the absolute
neutrality of Bulgaria. Then the Czar
fent a personal appeal to Prince Boils,
who Is his godson, ind the latter his ever
since thrown his Influence on the side of
Russia It I"- now believed that when
war comes Bu'garla will be lined up on
the side of the Allies.
It has been pointed out to Italv that if
she entered the war and brought In the
Balkan principalities aa her allies, her
every future demand must have recog
nition. Russia has. it Is understood here,
suggested to Bulgaria that if Turkey
enters the war on the side of Germany,
the prize for Bulgaria If she sides with
Russia, will be Adrlanople.
It Is recognized that Turkev cannot
much longer maintain neutralitv The
relations between Turkey and Greece are
"vefy strained Constant friction Is re
ported, with numerous acts of aggression
on the part of the Turks. Therefore the
necessity of keeping the Balkan states
lined up together Is fully realized.
The constant agitation of the Italian
people for action against Austria Is hav
ing Its effect The higher government of
ficials are now confident Italy must art
to maintain her position as th dominant
power of the Mediterranean and that she
must take Austria's Adriatic possessions
by the force of her own might If she is
to be a real factor In deciding on the lines
for the, new map of Europe.
The Rumanian field armv Is made up
of Ave army corps of two dlvtsion.5
each and two divisions of .'avalry. A
regular division Is made up of two
brigades each and the total field army

LONDON, Sept. 21.
A Iteutcr dispatch from Ghent says a
smnll force of Rclglnns, supported by
nn armored twin, .defeated 23u0 Ger
mans, who lost many In killed, wounded
nnd prisoners.
The Germans continue entrenehlnK
about Urtisseld, constructing; strong
earthworks before the sites ot their guns,
many of which have been posted.
German nnd Bclitian ttoops nre flBht
Inir at Piters. I'ntt of Klnjr Albert's
nrmy has retired to the ramparts of
Antwerp, The German force nt Puers
lr reported to have two of the great
slego KUns that smashed the forts at
Llese nnd Nnmur.
(Puers Is about clsht miles from the
forts that protect Antwerp on the south
west. This report lends to connrm
dispatches from Ostcnd that the Ger
mans wero advancing guns to bombatd
Antwerp.
Durlmr the Inst weelt the BelRlnn army
has received reinforcements. The splilt
ot tho troops li excellent nnd they nre
Brcatly encouraged by the successes
r.alneil durliifr tho last few days In
sharp skirmishes with tho Germans.
Tho German forces bent upon subju
patlnir Antwerp have their lino extend
ln westward almost Into Ghent. Their
nrtlllrry Is hard nt work on the south
bank ot the Scheldt, seven miles from
the city. Railway service has been sus
pended south of Ghent. Antwerp ap
pears to be menaced more seriously
than ever. The Inhabitants, however.
have not censed to hope that tho city
will escape a direct attack.
At Ghent, It It Impossible, hecnuie of
tho meagre reports received, to deter
mine tho proKress ot events ncross the
French frontier. It Is conceded, how
ever, that whatever may hnppen to the
German armies In the southwest it is
certain that the Kaiser's forces mean
to conquer Antwerp and to remain In
occupation of southern Belgium, re
gardless of what prlco they may bo
compelled to pay In lives.
A correspondent of the London Chron
icle, who Is with tho Belgium army In
tho flettl, wires that the Belgian nrmy
Is pushing on toward Brussels and Is
confident of regaining control of the
city. No statement Is made of the de
tailed movements of the Belgians.
According to tho Chronicle mnn at Leb
beke, Octave Veihulst, SO ears old, his
two brothers, Leopold nnd Arthur, 21 and
1!. respectively, were stood against the
charred walls of their home after It
had been burned and bavoneted to death
by German soldiers while their relatives
looked on.
Another Ghent dlvpatch to tho Chronicle
quotes a newspaper as saying that 412
Inhabitants of the small Belgian town
ot Tamln:s, In tho Namur district, have
been killed, presumably on account oft
some act against the Germans occupying
the district. The dead Include the priest
nnd the local notnbles. After whole
sale execution, . says tho dispatch, the
torch was applied so effectually that only

gered by Humane Activity,
LONDON, Sept. 24.
The Admiralty Ofllce has Issued a. re
ply to the statement of tho German Mn.
lster at Copenhagen, alleging that the
Knglish fired on German swimmers fol.
lowing the naval battle near Heligoland.
Tho Admiralty slates that when ths
German torpedo boat destroyer V-187
was sinking, the Goshawk ordered ths
Ilrlllsh destroyers to cense their flro and
lower their boats to savo tho Eurvlvors,
While this wns being done nn officer
on tho nfterpnrt ot tho X-187 trained
Its after gun on tho Goshawk nnd fired
nt 200 yards rnnge, hitting tho ward
loom. It Is though that ho believed tin
boat's crow Intended to board and cap
ture his vessel, which was still (lying
her colors.
It thereupon became necessary to de
stroy his aftergun, which was done with
n few well-placed shots, nftcr which
every elTort was mado to save his Ufa
until tho German cruiser Stettin np.
penrod through tho mist nnd opened a
henvy nro on the British bouts.
Tin destroyers wero forced to retire (o
nvold destruction. Tho Goshawk removeM
hor men from tho boat, leaving It to the
German prisoners, nearly all of whom
woro wounded.
"It Is to bo regretted," says tho note,
"that n bluejacket In the forecastle of
tho Goshawk, exasperated at the Inhuman
conduct of the German cruiser, threw a
piojectllo, which could not possibly have
exploded under the cltcumstances, Into
tho boat ns It drifted past tho ship,
"This In doubtless tho Incident referred
to be tho German Minister at Cnnen.
.hngen, and It cinnot bo defended, al
though It naa dono under considerable
provocation It wns surely a venial
offense, compared with that of the Ger
man ciulser, which fired many shells at
the boats of tho Rrltlsh destroyers which

action."
