THEUE is strong evidence that
Field Marshal von Hlndontiurj?
plans to begin his crnnd offensive
against Rumania soon. Tho first
movement probably will proceed,
from Danat across the extreme
southwestern point of tho Rumanian
frontier. If such nn offensive is suc
cessful, it will causo tho withdrawal
of the Rumanian troops in south
western Trnnsylvanin nnd will cn
nblo the Bulgnrs to invade Rumania
by traversing the Danube at Vidcn,
from which point n railroad runs
to Craiova.

VILLA RAIDS GIVE U. S.
NEW CONCERN; MATTER
PRESENTED TO WILSON
War Secretary, With Unfavora
ble Reports From Mexico on
Bandit Activity, Consults
President in Baltimore
CARRANZA'S MEN IDLE
WABHINOTON. Sopt S5 The first offi
cial admission that the Mexican situation
again Is "crowing serious" ume today when
Secretary of War llaker left Washington
to confer with President WUson.
Mr. llakcr planned to sen the Treeldent
while tho latter Is In llaltlmore this after
noon and present to him thb latest details
of the situation In Chihuahua. It was said
that he might accompany tho President
back to Shadow 1-nwn.
The War Secretary's Istt to the Presi
dent followed tho refcrenca to him of a
batch of ditpntchen from State Department
agents on tho border and In Mexico. These
dispatches are of n conflicting nature. Sec
retary Lansing said, but a (treat many of
them boro out tho report made by General
fdeorge Bell, ir,, comitMindltHt at Bt Pas.
that Villa "not only kept his promlee t8
enter Chihuahua City, hut did more thai)
ha said he would do there."
There Is no longer doubt that the bandit
movement In Chihuahua, whether led by
Villa personally or not, has grown for
midable. The loyalty of the Carranslsta
troops Is admittedly doubtful and many of
them nro known to have deserted to the
bandits during the last week.
Omclnls het'e are apprehensive that the
bandits, who are well armed and equipped,
may nt any time attempt an attack either
upon General Pershing's troops or Uon the
American border patrol. And In either In
stance the outcome would be serious.
Unassailable evidence from competent
sources reached Washington Indicating that
the Carranslsta soldiers In northern Chihua
hua are making no effort to Interfere either
with the Vlltlata or Legallsta bands operat
ing there.
A supplementary report from General Dell,
received today, gives detailed Information
along this line. It flatly charges that the
expeditions sent In pursuit of Vllltstas by
Qeneral Trevlno have made no effort to
Interfere with the bandits.
Ardmorc Boy Held as Thief '
Joseph Masslno, a boy, living In Ardmore,
was held under SHOO ball yestorday by
Magistrate Stlllwagon on the charge of lar
ceny. According to members of the Lower
Merlon police force, after being arrested
Saturday night, he confessed to tho theft
of a pocketbook containing 1110 belonging
to Vmbcrto Santonlo, proprietor of a blccle
shop on I.ancaster piko.
