astrous Transylvanlan campaign. Von Pal

to tM Toerzburg I'aas, which Uads through
the Tianaylvanlan Alps to the Itumanlan
plain,
"The enemy Is roll'ng bick on the whole
lino," says the Herman official atntement.
"In eastern Transyhanla we continue to
march ahead. Tha ltutnanluns wero beaten
In the battle of Kronatadt. Helnforcements
arrived from tho north In vain and Joined
the rombnt northeast of Kronatadt."
Von Mackcnaen, too, struck quickly In
the south, while von Palkenhayn was
sweeping the ltumnnlans out of Tran
sylvania. The Herman field marshnl tins
captured by surprise attack an Inland In
the Danube northwest of tho Ilulgarlan
city of HIMovu, southwest of lluchureat.
The Island In opposite the Itumanlan city
of Zlmnltsea, from which runs n rail
road that an Invading array would find
useful, Two Itumanlan oltlccrn. 150 men
and six guns were captured on the Island.
Last night's Itumanlan ntatoment Bays

tion by the Auatro-German batteries which

of the passes that lead from the region of
Kronstadt Into Humanla In caujlng alarm.
It Is hoped that Iluaala will send aid to
Humanla on tno Transylvania as well as

here that General SarraU'a army In Mace

to be of real service to Humanla. Many
