disaster remains a mystery. A Secret
inquiry' was started today by the
British Admiralty.

held by French, British nnd Belgians, and
their artillery has been planted to sweep
the water. The Germans might try to
tiansport troops under the concentrated
Are of their heaviest guns, but even un
der these circumstances the enterprise
would be a foolhardy one Unless most of
the French and British guns were
silenced. (
Heavy troop movements are again re
ported from Western Belgium, but du
ctal dispatches make no mention of any
ntw ofTenslvo movement by tho invaders
In thai region.
A daring attempt to mlno tho Allies
trenches In the vicinity of Arras wns re
ported today. German sappera had suc
ceeded In carrying a mlno trench well Up
to the British lines, worklnir under covor
of darkness. Only tho discovery of tho
enemy prevented tho blowing up of tho
Britons with enormous loss of life.
The Germans ' have been keeping up a
vigorous demonstration for tho purposo of
checking nny proposed attacks by the Al
lies, but beyond this thoy havo not tried
any crushing movement.
ALLIES' LINES STAND FIRM.
Thero haVo bsen 76 days of fighting
since tho battle of tho Alsno began, and
tho lines of the Allies aro nowhere In
any danger. At every point from tho
Vosgos to the North Sea tho Germans
have tried, at some time or another, to
drlvo home n wedge, but they were
frustrated everywhere. On tho otnor
hand, tho Allies aro making approclablo
progress In their attacks at both ends
of the lino nnd at tho apex of tho Ger
man wedge, near Solssons.
The thunder of hostile guns must bo
ringing plain In Mctz, for a telegram from
Belfort says that the French bombard

and 15 mllca from Metz, has Increased In

Reports from Dunkirk, Calais and

Tho dispatch also sajs that Ostcnd can
bo retaken by the Allies nny time they
cam to occupy It. It says:
"Tho bombardment of tho Belgian coast
had satisfactory results Our troops havo
cautiously pushed forward as far as tho
outskirts of Ostcnd, encountering only
small detachments of the enemy. If cov

The following dispatch has been re
ceived by a news agency from Geneva,
Switzerland:
"fcoven thousand refugees, mostly mem
bers of wealthy Gorman families of
Breslau. have arrived In Slunlch. They
declare that Breslau Is In a state of con

WAR MOVES FIND RUMANIA
READY TO SIDE WITH ALUESt
Passage of Car's TrooDo'wn Danilbe to Save Serbs From '
Disaster Indicates Complaisance of Balkan
Neighbor Bucharest's Ambitions.
By J, W. T. MASON
NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-Report from
Soda that 15 regiments of Russians have
arrived at Rndlevatz, In Servla, Is of
sensational significance, If true. Tho
statement asserts tho Russians hae
matlo the Journey along tho Danube
River. Tho Danlibo- 'empties' ln).o tho
Clack Sea after crowing Jtumanla, nnd
If tho Russians havo tlscd the river to
reach Sorvia, they havo v)61ated Ruma
nian neutrality. J
m, Hinv could' wot have passed
through" Rumania In this manner without
n, k,mwl1irn of the Bucharest Govern
ment. As a neutral Power Rumania
must havo prevented this movement of
troops by ono of the belligerents, or else
have seen Us neutrality violated, as was
Belgium's. Thero Is no doubt of tho
ability of tho Rumanians to prevent tho
Uanubo being used by tho Russian army.
That they havo not dond so enn only
mean tho Rumanian Government hns
voluntarily disregarded lt neutrality
prdvlded always the tcport of tho Bus
slnlis reaching Servla by tho Danube
rotito li correct
If this position hns been assumed by
Rumania, It Is of momentous conse
quences Tho Inevitable Inference Is that
the Bucharest Government hns concluded
to" enter tho war on tho side of the Allls,
for tho purposo of enlarging Rumanian
tenltory at tho expense of Hungary.
Oilier clrctimstnnces benr out this con
clusion The Rumanian Legislature will
bo convened tomorrow, and II Is probable
i.nt ti. r'nMnji Mill tin palled unon to
make a definite explanation of Its Inten
tions. Rumania wants nil It can get If tho
Alllei vln the wnr. Its maximum demand
probably It the annexntlon of tho Iltm
Bnrlan provinces of Transylvania and
Bukovlna. Russia, howovcr, having al
ready inptured Bukovlna, desires to retain
this province. Novortheless, thero Is press
ing need to rescue tho Servians from
Austria's victorious army. Bccauso of
this fact Rumania Is now In a bettor posi
tion to oxnet maximum concessions thnn
It would havo been earlier In the war,
when tho Serbs wero Invading Bosnia.
What tho terms really aro doubtless will
not bo known until tho wnr ends, but If
Russia has been ablo to transport tro'ops
up tho Danube, It la tho Inevitable con
clusion that Rumania has been promised
a largo territorial payment.
