London, Oct. 16, 3:15 a, m.—The | situation on the Rumanian frontier occupies the leading position on the news and editorial pages of the Lon- don newspapers. The Rumanians, | according to the latest official state- ment, have been forced back six or seven miles at one point into their own country. They are making a { stand at Rucaru, which is a small town toward the southern end of the Torzburger Pass. At Rucaru the Austro-German forces are well below the highest level of the pass. South of this town the road runs ten miles through a rolling country to the rail- head Campulung, which is virtually / on the edge of the Rumanian plain i and seventy-five miles from Buchar- est, The Times notes: “The enemy has advanced into Rumania through the Torzburger Pass and the Rumanians are fighting on their own soil at Ru- caru. Apparently they have tempor- arily lost possession of all but the southern approaches of Torzburger Pass. Further north the enemy penetrated to the crest of Citoz Pass but was then driven back in a fierce encounter. In the other passes the | enemy is making no progress but un- til effective help reaches the R manian second army we must expect varying fortunes in this districs MAY GET NEW CONCERN York New Optical Manufacturing Company Considering Moving Plant to New Britain, Dr. B.

Dcpartment of Agriculture Agree: They Can Be Used. 3 Washington, Oct. 16. pecialists of the department of agriculture are convinced that a satisfactory quality of book paper can be made from hemp hurds, the waste stalk fragments pro- duced in preparing hemp fiber for the market. A report oni the subject issued to- day says that commercial tests made in co-operation with a paper manu- facturer demonstrated that hemp hurds can be reduced chemically to paper stock by the soda process under practices only slightly differed from those employed for the manufacture of pulp from poplar wood. Somewhat more bleach as well as beating was necessary. are produced from hemp grown in At present about 5,000 tons of hurds Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin and Cali- fornia. This is not sufficient, the re- port states, to justify the erection of a pulp mill or the transportation to existing mills, but the view is ex- pressed that the time may come, owing to the increasing cost of wood pulp and the increasing acreage of hemp grown in this country, when the use of hurds in the paper making indus- try will be profitable. POLITICIANS DISAPPOINTED. Registration in New York Shows Smal! Gain for National Campaign. New York, Oct, 16.—Although the registration of 738,710 voters in New York city exceeded last year’s record by 70,899, the predictions of political leaders were not fulfilled. The complete registration figures now available show a gain of 383,424 over the registraticn for the last presi- dentlal election in 1912, Politicians prophesied that a total of 750,000 to 800,000 would be attained. One reason given for the failure to reach| these figures is the return to Europe of many men of foreign birth. Republican leaders pointed out to- day that there was a large decrease in | the registration in some of the strong democratic districts of Manhattan, but the democratic chieftains asserted that this was more than compensated by cemocratic gains in Brooklyn, Bronx and Queens boroughs. Manhattan was | the only boraugh to show a decline from the registration of 1912, AN ELECTRICAL DEBATE.

It’s curious how a lot of fellows put off buying Fall clothes until the wind actually begins to bite their bones— or, in the words of the poet, “until a certain place freezes over, and the last galoot’s ashore.” We never could see the logic of it; clothes are as cheap now as they’re going to get; they won't cost a penny more now than a month hence.
