Through it the Ru- manians have lost their largest seaport a port noted in international trade for its shipments of grain and petro- leum. Simultaneously the Rumanians line of communica- tion with Rissia by way of the Black Sca—a loss which is bound to have a far reaching consequence for Ru- rania in carrying on her military op- crations. “Russia was able to send to ally by way of Constanza in large steamers materials and men which r way into interior Ru- mania on the main railroad line from Constanza to Bucharest. The 1 transports are now limitel in their operations to Sulina and the Danube her norts, where only vessels of small ton- | nage can dock and unload. ! “In addition to this general in- Guence upon Rumanian warfare, how- ever, the loss of Constanza is of de- cisive importance as regards the mil- itary situation in Dobrudja. The rail- road line from Constanza to Tcherna- voda is already partially in the hands of the allied Germans, Turks and Bul- carians. Bast of Murfatlar this line has already been crossed by the at- tacking armies and von Mackensen's Jeft wing is approaching Tchernavo- da.

Thus tlie quick transport of troops and ar- tillery to especially threatened points of the Dobrudia front is rendered im- | possible. Furthermore an excellent base of operations has been taken from the Rumanians and Russians. “The encircling movement by Teu- tonic forces at Hermannstadt changed the Transylvanian adventure of the Rumanians into a speedy and com- plete defeat. In the same way, the capture of Constanza and the inter- | ruption of railroad communication |for the Rumahians constitutes a de- | cisive blow to them in the Dobrudja theater of war. The advance planned by the Rumanians and Russians through Dobrudja against the Bulga- rians and the line of communication between Sofia and Constantinople has thus been frustrated. PURSE FOR PASTOR. Rev. M. S. Anderson Remembered By Parishioners on His Birthday. Rev. M. S.
