RASOVO AND THEDJIDIE FALL
BEFORE SWIFT ADVANCE OF
TEUTONS ON CERNAVODA
" nEULIN, Oct 24.
Tho numanlan Danube town of Baaovo
has been capturM by Field Marshal von
Mackensen's left wing In the Dobrudja, the
oerman War Office announced this arter
noon.
Beventy-flve ofllceni and 801 men were
captured. Including those reported on Oc
tober 21,
Bucharest was. bombarded again by avi
ators, the statement said.
The town of MedJIdle also was occupied
by Mackensen's army.
'The enemy yields In confusion before
our right wing," the omclal report stated.
"The pursuing cavalry of the Allies (Tue
tonic) has reached the district of Carn-murat"
"Eastern front From tho ocean to the
Carpathian forests there aro no Important
events to report
"Transylvania front South of Kron
stadt or Brasso. yesterday Predeal was
captured by German and Attstro-Hungarlan
troops In a violent engagement Six hun
dred prisoners were brought In.
"On the southern exit of Ilothenthurm
Pass, during the last few days, the strong
Bumanlan resistance was broken.
"Dobrudja front The enemy yields In
confusion before our right wing. The pur
suing cavalry of the Allies (Teutonic) has
reached the district of Caramurat
MedJIdle and Raaovo were captured
after violent fighting.
Tho total booty, Including that re
ported on October 21, is seventy-five
officers and 68S2 men, pne flag, fifty
two machine guns, twelvo cannons and
one mine thrower.
The sanguinary losses of the Buma
ntans and of tho Russian reinforce
ments brought There. In a hurry are
heavy.
Tho fortress ot Bucharest was once

ing to roport
HEnUN, jOct 24.
Two powerful armies,, attacking from east
and west, threaten to crush Bumanla In a
mighty vise and put her out of tho war be
fore winter.
Field Marshal Mack6nsen's Gcrman-Bul-garlan-Turktsh
forces havo captured nearly
a third of the Constanza-Cernavoda nail
way. The hills around Contftanza are being
heavily fortified to ward oil possible attacks
by Russian warships. Thlo city still rings
with Jubilation over the taking of Con
stanza. Mackensen's namo Is on every ono's
lips. German military critics declare that
the conquerer of Serbia will prove the con
querer of Rumania also. Already 4000 of
the 0000 square miles of the territory of
Dobrudja province Is held by the Oerman
allies.
Mackensen's easy victory at Constnnxo.
was duo partly to the RusHO-Rumantnns'
lack of artillery, It Is understood here. When
Falkenhayn began sweeping tho Rumanians
out of Transylvania, the Rumanians hastily
shitted guns from Dobrudja to the Tran
sylvanlan patses to check the Invasion of
their western borders. The Russians
brought reinforcements In men into Do
brudja, but were unable to bring adequate
artillery equipment and tho enemy batteries
were unnble to offer effective opposition to
the Teutonic advance.
Ono roport from Sofia today said that
Coastanza was won with hardly any fight
ing, tho Rumanians evacuating shortly af
ter German detachments cut the railroad to
the west Cavalry forces entered the city In
the afternoon and found It deserted by the
enemy.
Tho decisive victory over the Rumanians
Is expected to have a tremendous Influence
In Greece, stifling the Allies' attempts to win
Greece's armed support
PETROGRAD ADMITS THE LOSS
OF MEDJIDIE AND CONSTANZA;
REPORTS STUBBORN BATTLES
PnTROGRAD, Oct 24.
Mackensen's forces have occupied tho
railway Junction at MedJIdle, twenty miles
west of Constanta, on tho Constanza-Cernavoda
Railway, 'tho War Offlco announced
today In a statement admitting the loss
of Constanza.
Under pressure of the enemy the Russo
Rumanlans retired northward to tho heights
north of Cbnstanza and MedJIdlo, the enemy
occupying these points. It was stated. The
Russians and Rumanians continue to resist
tho enemy's advance.
(The Petrogrod statement Indicates that
all the Constanza-Cernavoda Railway, from
MedJIdle eastward to Constanza, or con
siderably more than half the railway, Is
now controlled by Mackensen. MedJIdle Is
the Junction point of this railway and n
new line leading southward to a point near
tho Bulgarian frontier.)
In the Trotus Valley the Austro-derman
forces havo made no fresh attempts to
advance, from Transylvania. Along tho Bu-seo-Dobrana-Klmpolung
lino nn artillery
duel Is, going on. Near Ossova, near tho
Junction of Serbia, Rumania and Transyl
vania, hostile attacks were repelled by the
Rumanian artillery.
WHAT BERLIN, PARIS AND
LONDON EXPERTS SAY ON
THE FALL OF CONSTANZA
BURLIN, Oct 24.
'The capture of Constanza by Bulgarian.
German and Turkish troops under Field
Marshal von Mackensen Is the severest
blow yet sustained by Rumania," writes
the military critic of the Oversens News
Agency today. 'Th.e Oerman allies have
Itruck, the Rumanians on a vital nerve, The
Rumanians have now lost uieir larger?
fceaport a port which was prominent In
the world's trade by the big chtpments ot
grain and oil which were made from It
At the same time the Rumanians have tort
their main line of communication with.
Russia which must havo far-reaching con
sequences on the Rumanians,
"Russia was able to send by way of
Constanza large shipments ot war materials
and reinforcements of men. These were
sent Intd.lhe Interior on the Constanta
Bucharest railroad. Bvi transportation be
tween Russia and Rumania Is now limited
to the Sullna and Danube ports, but only
boats of small tonnage can approach tlieso
places.
"Besides this the general Influence upon
Rumanian warfare Is of declslvo Import
ance," Tho statement adds that the capturo of
part of the railway lino will enable the
Germans to make quick shifts of guns
and troops to any threatened point and
furnishes a good base of operations. The
Oerman victory In Dobrudja, the expert
concludes, prevents any possibility of the
Russians Invading Bulgaria through east
ern Rumania to strlko at tho railway line
Unking Turkey with the Central Powers.
PARIS, Oct 24.
Military critics of the French press de
voted considerable space today to the cap
ture of Constanta by tho German allies.
The Matin says that the fall ot Constanza
may permit von Mackensen's army to mrch
on Bucharest and overrun Moldavia, On
the other hand, the Echo believes tHat von
Mackensen will not be able to get any fur
ther than tho Danube.
It Is admitted that the Teutonlo victory
was an Important one and that It may
open up great stores of grain and oil for
the German allies In Rumania.
LONDON, Oct 24,
Tho Morning Post In discussing the cap
ture of Constanza by tho German allies
said today!
"While the loss of Constanza Is serious,
tho threat against Ccrnavoda Is more seri
ous. Tho only brldco across the Danube
between Belgrade and the Black Sea Is at
Ccrnavoda. Comploto possession of tho rail
way and bridge by the Oermans would open
up the way to Bucharest, tho Rumanian
capital."
SERBS CAPTURE TRENCHES

PARIS, Oct 24.

against Monastlr, capturing German-Bui-gar
tranches to a depth of half a mllo and
Inflicting heavy losses on the enemy, It was
olllclally announced today.
The Serbian gain was made lmmedlatery
after tho rcpulso of several enemy attacks
by Serbian artillery. Turk-German units,
recently arrived at tho Cerna River front,
co-operated with tho Bulgars.
All operations hae stopped on the Struma
front on the Allies' right wing becauso of
floods. On the Lake Dolran front artillery
activity has been very lively. The British
took an enemy trench near Nakukovo, cap
turing 20 Germans.

ADLER'S DEED DEPLORED
BY AUSTRIAN SOCIALISTS
Vienna Press Brands Him as n Vile,
Irresponsible Criminal
VIENNA, Oct 24. If Dr. Frledrlch
Adler thought to rally followers about him
by his assassination of the Austrian Pre
mier, Count Karl Sturgkh, ho is doomed to
disappointment Throughout the empire
his act Is being deplored and looked upon
as the deed of a fanatic. It Is disavowed
by the Socialist party nnd press and con
demned by his father, Victor Adler, Social
ist member of Parliament. Nowhere' Is
thero any sympathy for the nssassln.
In the Austro-Hungarlan press Adler
Is branded ns a vile. Irresponsible criminal.
That tho deed should hae disturbed the
peaco ot tho people Is deplored. Govern
ment circles deny that tho murder can have
an Influence on the political situation or
the course of the war.
The city has recovered rapidly from
the shock of the assassination. The as
sassin has no accomplices, the pollco are
convinced.
WASMCTON OFFICIALS
SlfiENT ON REPORT THAT
my-ed'sent u-boats
Refuse to Discus Statements
That Thrco Vessel Operated
Off Nantucket Shoals
Recently
EMBASSY LEAK
ADMIT
WASHINGTON, Oct 24, Officials here
refused to discuss the statements printed
today In the Providence Journal that three
German U-boats, the U-51, U-t and the
IMJ, made up the flotilla that operated oft
Nantucket recently. It was admitted that
tho Journal Is In possession of the con
fidential reports of the British Embassy nnd
thero was no disposition here to combat
any of Its statements. Officials also said
that while the navy haa Insisted that only
one boat was here, they have felt njl along
that at least two participated, the U-51
and U-Bl.
So far as the present whereabouts of
thess raiders Is concerned, officials very
frankly say they do not know. The only
think they are certain of Is that they are
not on the coast of the United States. The
navy's search of the entire Atlantic coast
line has been most thorough, and It has
conclusively demonstrated that there Is
neither a secret submarine base nor a secret
wireless ptant at any point where It could
bo used In an unnoutral manner.
The visit ot the U-C2 Is a closed Incident
but promptly will be reopened should nn
other underwater craft commence opera
tions on this side of the Atlantic. Should
this be done then the United States will
send forward the protest already prepared
modeled along the line of that sent to Eng
land and France which resulted In the
withdrawal of the tentative blockade 6f
leading American ports.
PROVIDENCE. R. I., Oct 24. That Cap.
tain Boy-Ed, debnrrcd German naval nt
toche of tho Washington Embassy, dis
patched the U-E3 and two other submarines
here to force a United States ruling on their
activities Is asserted by tho Providence
Journal today.
Further, that paper said tho U-5J, the
U-48 and U-61 are still In American waters.
In support of Its claims the Journal pre
sented a letter, which It asserted BoyEd
had written here, saying:
"In order to ascertain where we stand
wo mut therefore, force the Issue and see
to what extent America Is willing to carry
out her alleged humanitarian Idenls by help
ing us to save the lives of thoso whose ships
wo destroy In the coming campaign In the

Germany Resents Norse Note

ALLIES COURT CAPITALS
AMSTERDAM. Oct 24. A crisis has
arisen between Oermany and Norway, tho
Climax; of which. It Is feared In some
quarters In aermnny, may be a 'diplomatic
break between the two countries. At the
same time there ore symptoms of a gradual
tendency on the part of Bwedfn toward
the Entente Allies, symptoms whloh In
pro-Ally circles here are Interpreted as fore
shadowing substantial agreements, and
probably an alliance.
Tho continuance of "friendly relations"
between Germany and Norway depends
upon the latter Government's answer to
Berlin's note demanding recession from the
stand taken regarding tho treatment ot
Oerman submarines In open Norwegian wa
ters. The original Norwegian note on this
subject was resented by the German For
eign Office as "unfriendly In tone and In
tent," nnd the Oerman Government In turn
sent n, sharp demand to Chrlstlanla de
manding a back-down.
The attitude of 'Sweden and Denmark
on the same question Is favorable to Ger
many and on this score thero Is no pos
sibility of estrangement
Berlin, however, Is watching with marked
attention the strenuous efforts now being
conducted by the Entente Powers to enlist
the Scandinavian countries on their side
and bring about their active co-operation
In the war. Advices from Berlin today
pointed out that the restrictions placed
by England upon the export trade to
Sweden are working great hardships on
that country, Sweden Is dependent upon
England for her coal.
In Denmark, popular sentiment Is largely
