IL-Only a change in tfae weather or entrance into the war of Rumania or Italy, or both, ls likely to bring about any marked change in the. military situation In Europe for some time to come. The belief ls growing in countries allied against Germany. Austria and Turkey, that Rumania with her Weil trained army ot not less than 400,000 men soon will throw herself into the conflict. This, in effect, would link Rumania with the extreme Russian left now forcing its way into Hungary through Bukowina. Taking into consideration the Ser vian and Montenegrins, tills would form a line menacing AuatrlarHnn gary along the entire southeastern frontier from Rusais to the Adriatic.

With a comparativo lull tn thia quar ter and artillery duela predominating near the Belgian coast, fighting of a desperate character has broken out In the center, notably to the northeast cf SclssvuS, which, through bombard ments, seems likely to suffer the fate of Rheims, and farther east, in the vi cinity of Perthes and Beausejour, from which points the Allies have been trying to reach the important railway to the north, the seizure of whtcn would cut one of the German main arteries of communication.
