Rumania Has Six Causes
For Declaration of War
Bucharest, Aug. 28, via Petrograd
and London, Aug. 29.—The causes
, which led Rumania to declare war on
j Austria Hungary are set forth in a
note presented to Count Czernin, the
Austro-Hungarlan minister to Ru
mania, after a meeting of the Ru
manian Crown Council at which it was
I decided to declare war. Summarized,
the reasons given are:
The triple alliance, to which Ru
mania was u party, was broken when
Italy declared war against Austria
Hungary.
Austria Hungary threatened the in
terests and national aspirations of Ru
mania.
Austria Hungary's assurances that
it was not Inspired by a spirit of con
quest or territorial gains in attacking
Serbia, have not been fulfilled.
Rumania was confronted with ter
ritorial aiiu political changes menac
ing her future. t
Rumanians in Hungary suffered op
pression, arousing a continual state of
animosity between the two nations.
Rumania desired to hasten the end
of the war, safeguard her racial inr
terests and realize her national unity.
Invasion of Hungary by
Rumanians Is Imminent
Paris, Aug. 29.—The invasion of
Hungary by Russians and Rumanians
is not only possible, says Lieutenant
Colonel Rousset, the military critic of
"La Liberte," but it is imminent.
"General I.etchitzky, the Russian
commander in Galicia," the writer
adds, "holds nearly 100 kilometers (CO
miles) of ridges from the source of
the two Bystritsas toward Rajailow
as far as Kirlibaba. He will easily
aid the Rumanians who, hardly on en
tering Transylvania, will certainly en
velope the enemy of General Koevess
if the latter does not retreat quickly.
Field Marshal Von Hindenburg will
be unable to help him as from the
Dniester river to the Stokhod General
Brussiloff is holding Von Hindenburg
solidly."
POINCARE CONGRATULATES
RULERS
Paris, Aug. 29.—President Poincare
has sent congratulatory telegrams to
the kings of Rumania and Italy upon
the recent declarations of war issued
by those two countries. Premier
Briand sent similar telegrams to Pre
mier Bratiano of Rumania, Premier
Boselli and Foreign Minister Sonnino,
of Italy.

Reasons For Declaring War
Are Given in Note Drawn
Up by Rumanian Council
By Associated Press
Bucharest, Aug. 28. via Petrograd
and London, Aug. 29.—Following is l
the text of the note handed to Count
Czernln, Austro-Hungarian minister to
Rumania at the conclusion of the
meeting of the Rumanian crown coun
cil which preceded the Rumanian dec
laration of war:
"The alliance concluded between
Germany, Austro-Hungary and Italy,
according to the statements of those
governments, had only a conservative
and defensive character. Its principal
object was to guarantee the allied
countries against attack from the out
side and to consolidate the state of af
fairs created by previous treaties. It
was in accordance with these pacific
tendencies that Rumania Joined this
alliance.
"Devoted to the development of her
internal affairs and faithful to her
resolution to remain as an element of
order and equilibrium on the lower
Danube, Rumania never has ceased
in her devotion to the maintenance of
■ peace in the Balkans. The last Balkan
wars, by destroying the status quo.
imposed vipon her a new line of con
duct, but her intervention gave peace
and re-established the equilibrium.
"For herself, she was satisfied with
| the rectification of her borders which
| gave her the greatest security against
aggression and repaired certain in
justices of the Congress of Berlin. But
in pursuit of this aim, Rumania was
disappointed by the failure of the
j Viena cabinet to take the attitude
I Rumania was entitled to expect.
I "When the present war broke out,
| Rumania, like Italy, declined to asso
ciate herself with the declaration of
war by Austria-Hungary, of which she
had not been notified by the Vienna
cabinet.
In the Spring of 1915 Itajy declared
war against Austro-Hungary. The
Triple Alliance no longer existed and
the reasons which determined Ru
mania's adherence to this political sys
tem disappeared."
BLOW TO HUNGARY
By Associated Press
The Hague, Aug. 28, via London,
Aug. 29.—The Dutch newspapers view
Rumania's entry into the war as a
: grave blow to the central powers, and
especially to Austria Hungary. They
I refer especially to the material mo
tives which prompted Rumania's ac
tion.
! RAILROAD NEW
MINES RESUME;
READING IS BUSY
Rush Coal Cars to Anthracite
District; Labor Troubles
End
Activity on the Philadelphia and
Reading Railway is taken as an in
dication that strike or no strike this
system will keep moving. At present
coal cars are being gathered in for a
rush of anthracite traffic. The settle
ment of labor troubles was followed
promptly with the resumption of work
at the mines. A dispatch from Sha
mokin says:
"After an idleness of eleven days in
the Northumberland county district,
all Philadelphia & Reading and Sus
quehanna Coal Companies' collieries
will resume operations.
"The Susquehanna collieries started
to work this morning and to-morrow
the Reading will resume.
Declare Strike Off
"It was decided yesterday at a Gen
eral Committee meeting oT strikers at
Kulpmont to declare the strike off. the
leaders having become convinced that
virtually all non-unionists in this re
gion had either become members of
the union or had gone to other fields
of employment. Messengers were ac
cordingly dispatched to the various
mines with news of the strike's ter
mination. The information was spe
cially pleasing to men employed at
individual operations. Ever since the
tie-up started it was feared idle miners
would insist that all plants in the
region should be rendered idle. Cars
are being rushed here to take care of
the coal business."
