In a despatch to the ''New York World," Karl von Wiegand, the well- known German-American correspon- dent, who is with the Germans on the Roumanian frontier, says: General von Falkenhayn's army, on a front of 290 miles, in Transylvania, is striving to tighten the grip on the Mountain passes into Roumania. The army is advancing in three columns through Passes, which lead towards Bucharest, 80 miles distant, and also through the Artschan Pass. The German left wing, 65 miles north of Kronstadt, is endea- vouring to cut off the Russian support from the Roumanians in the Palanka Pass. A German column is now in the vicinity of Campolunum, 20 miles south-west of Sinia, which is an impor- tant railway terminal. General von Falkenhayn is forcing his troops, and trying to reach the eastern and south- ern slopes of the mountains before heavy snows make mountain opera- tions impossible. The contrast between the war methods here and on the West Front is striking. Whereas all artillery is screened on the West Front, scores of batteries in the Predeal Valley are in full sight of the Roumanians, while the Roumanian lines are also plainly visible to the Germans. Once the Ger- mans ceased fire, hoping that the Rou- manians would retreat, but the Rou- manians stuck to their positions. The Papen, late German military attache PETROGRAD, October 23. A communique states: The Rou- manians forced the enemy to retire in the Trotus, Outuz, and Slanic valleys. The Roumanian successes continue on the west frontier of Moldavia. The Russo-Roumanians retired, stubbornly LONDON, October 23. An official German statement claims the capture of Constanza. We retired immediately south of the Cernavorda-Constanza railway. There and Bicaz, the enemy retiring in Trotus valley. We prevented an enemy at- Cutuz and Slanic valleys. We repulsed attacks at Predeal, and re-captured Drawoslavele. We took many prison- ers. We repulsed the enemy advancing from Scara through the Topolog valley, prisonering 122. We also repulsed an attack in the region of Orsova. BUCHAREST, October 24. General Polivanoff, formerly Russian Minister for War, is joining the Rou- manian headquarters staff. LONDON, October 24. The success of General Mackensen's unexpected attack and the capture of Constanza have renewed public anxiety as to Roumania's ability to counter the fierce Austro-German assaults. It is understood that Mackensen now commands a third of the Bulgarian Germans, while many Turks have been added since Mackensen's reverse on the 20th September. After, breaking the Russo-Roumanian left wing and cap- turing the fortified centre to Prisan, General Makensen pushed on instantly 15 miles, displaying a remarkable faculty of improving his victory, which is his chief military virtue. He was then able to throw an army within 24 hours across the railway, cutting off Constanza. It is feared that large quantities of petroleum and stores are 150 acres, and are able to store 70,000 tons of grain. It is also the headquar- ters of 757 Roumanian merchant ships. The capture of the town means the loss of the shortest line of communi- cation between Bucharest and Odessa, via the Black Sea, and increases the difficulty of preventing the enemy from crossing the Danube and cutting the Russian lines of communication with Bucharest. A further Russo-Rou manian difficulty arises from the fact that they cannot retreat norrthward, because it is vital to keep contact with the Cernavoda bridge, which is the sole means of communication across the Danube. If Mackensen hems the Russo-Roumanians into a small semi- circle of territory before Cernavoda the Roumanians would find the bridge- head very costly to defend against conditions of modem artillery fire. If retreat is eventually necessary the pas- sage of the bridge would be an opera- tion fraught with the utmost danger. The fact that Mackensen claims no pri- soners indicates that the Roumanian retreat beyond the railway was in ac- cordance with plan. there is stubborn fighting on the other Roumanian fronts, but only on the northern sector is there a tendency to drive the enemy back. General Falkenhayn's troops have a footing on the Roumanian side of at least five passes. It is estimated that Falkenhayn has 14 divisions in Tran- sylvania. It is notw-worthy that Aus- tro-Hungarian war correspondents in Transylvania continually insist on the diffitulties confronting Falkenhayn. They say that snow has fatten, which may delay the advance, and that the Roumanians will be able to draw upon Russian reinforcements. The Central Powers must be satisfied if the enemy is kept out of Hungary. (Constanza, or Kustmdji, is the chief and only Roumanian seaport on the Black Sea, with railway communication with the capital, Bucharest. It has a population of 13,000 (aoubt the size of Maryborough), and is a favourite watering place). |
