The fate of Bucharest apparently Is sealed. The Teutonic advance upon the Rumanian capital is going on un- checked, attempts to stop it been unsuccessful. This ment is made in the statement today. Petrograd also mentions Ploesci, thirty-five miles north of Bucharest, | as another point in the direction of which the invading armles are mov- | ilg without effective opposition. Ploesci is on the line of the only rail- Toad route of retreat for the Ruman- ians operating in the vicinity of Bu- charest. The threat to Ploesci seemingly means the speedy abandonment of Bucharest, if the Rumanians hope to male an effective retreat over the | railroad line towards Moldavia.

Berlin, Dec. 5, by wireless to Say- ville—The total losses of the entente in the present war have been 15,100,000 men, according to figures given our by the Association for Research. Into the Social Consequences of the ‘War of Copenhagen, are quoted in the Overseas News agency statement to- day. “Of this number,” says the news agency summary of the report, “Great British had lost 1,200,000 men, Rus- sia 8,500,000, France 2,700,000, Italy 800,000 Serbia 480,000, Belgium 220,- 000 and Rumania 290,000. These figures admit of curious con- clusions. Thus the losses of Serbia, Belgium and Rumania are three- quarters those of the British and as of the Rumanian losses only those of the first two months are included. These three small nations have in fact made sacrifices as large as those of Great Britain. Italy has suffered already losses equal to two-thirds of those of the British, although she entered the war ten months later than Great Britain. The French losses are three times as great as the British and form one-quarter of the total for the whole entente, while the Russian losses are seven times greater than the British, which comprise only eight per cent. of the total. although in them the losses of Canadians, Australians, Newr Zecalanders, South Africans, East Indians and others are included.

London, Trec. 5, 9:556 a. m.—An ar- ticle predicting the approach of peace negotiations has appeared in the Ber- | lin Tageblatt and is quoted in an Am- sterdam despatch to the Exchange Telegraph company. The Tageblatt says: The moment is near when a busi- ness peace will be possible—a peace which the allies and the central pow- ers can discuss in view of the securi- ties they pgssess. Of course those who consider such a proposal must not be allowed to return home empty handed. The status quo ante bellum is impossible since the independence of Poland is proclaimed. but'it is re- markable that the number of Ger- mans who wish to annex Belgium has shrunk recently to almost nothing and many pan-Germans are ready to- day to listen to the word ‘pacifism’ hout protest.” The Tageblatt says that the fact Germany want¢ a business peace 1S not a sign of weakness but of common sense. The Vossische Zeitung also prints an article discussing the possibility of peace. It says that “probably Ambas- sador Gerard is returning to Ger- many with some peace proposal.” If such is the case, the paper goes on, America is an unsuitable medi- ator, and it warns Germany to accept the services of President Wilson only as a messenger and not as an arbi- trator. Press Prints Peace Talk. Berlin, Dec. 5 (By wireless to Say- ville) .—Editorials appeared in virtual- 1y all the newspapers ye: vy com- enting on the present poliiical situa- | s influenced by recent military | in Rumania and economic con- | ditions in the recently invaded En- tente countries, and stating that ap- parentiy the sentiment for peace has been strengthened in these countries. A majority of the newspapers speak of the possible intentions of Ambas- sgador Gerard on his return from the United States and of the rumors that | o British ministerial crisis is impend- | ing. The Vossiche Zeitung says “We all feel that the end of the war has been brought considerably nearer by the events of the recent weeks. Even statesmen seem to recognize this, although the words lack clearness.” GERARD OFF FOR BERLIN Returns to Re- Ambassador to Germany Post: Bearing Wilson’s Vie garding Deportation of Belgians. New York, Dec. 5.—James W. Ger- ard, United States ambassador of Ger- many returns to his post today bear- ing the views of President Wilson re- garding submarine warfare and the deportation of Belgians for presenta- tion to the imperial government.

London, Dec, 5, 12:30 p. m.—The ‘Westminster Gazette says Premier As- quith has declined definitely a pro- posal for the formation of a war council of which he would not be a member and other consequential changes which would have followed acceptance of that proposal. Natu- rally the next move remains for these members of the cabinet who made the suggestion. Mr. Asquith approved a war coun- cil, the newspaper continues, but the premier necessarily must be chair- man of any such body. His attitude is said to be supported by foreign sec- retary Grey and most of his political colleagues in the cabinet. The Exchange Telegraph company says that War Secretary Lloyd George has decided to resign. War Secretary Lloyd George's res- ignation was drafted after he received an intimation that Premier Asquith could not agree to the suggestion that the war council should be formed without the premier at its head.

Rockefeller. rrytown, N, Y., Dec. 5.—A noted | figure in the world's petroleum indus- iry was removed today when John Dustin Archbold, capitalist, president of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, and officer or director in vari- ous other enterprises, died at his home here after a twa weeks' illness subse- quent to an operation for appendici- tis. Death came at 4 o'clock this morning. For some hours the patient had been unable to receive proper nourishment, and ' members of his | family recognized last night that the | end was near. Funeral services will be held here | Thursday forenoon, attended by rela- | tives and many of his personal and | business friends, including John D. Rockefeller and William Rockefeller | and their families. While these services | are taking place Tarrytown's various | industries will suspend operations at | a memorial to Mr. Archbold’s demo- | cracy in the village of his residence. Mr. Archbold is survived. by his wife, a son, John E. Archbold of Thomasville, Ga., and two daughters, Mrs. M. M. Van Beuren of Newport, | R. I, and Mrs. Armar D. Saunder- son, of Lyndhurst, England. Was 68 Years of Age. Mr. Archbold was a native of Ohio and was 68 years old. In early life he was an oil refiner and buyer in western Pennsylvania and in 1875 he became associated with the Rocke- feller interests, a connection that con- tinued until his death. He president of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey shortly after the disso- lution af the “‘trust” was ordered by the United States supreme court. Mr. Archbold’s death followed an illness of less than two weeks. He was operated upon for appendicitis November 23 and for a time seemed to rally. Later he suffered a relapse and the five physicians attending him decided that blood transfusion must be resorted ta. Mr. Archbold’s chauffeur volunteered as the subject of this operation and transfusion wa per- formed on the ber 29 by Dr. Lindeman Brewer. TFollowing the operation Mr. Arch- bold showed increased strength and his physiclans and members of his family appeared optimistic that the improvement would be permanent. His simple habits of life§and rugged constitution buoyed up the hope that he would survive. Thypoughout his illness Mr. Archbold retained his keen mentality and his strong determination to recover aided for a tlme the fight to bring him back to health. A Second Rockefeller, ¢ John D, Archbold was almost as closely identified with the history of the Standard Oil as John D. Rockefel- ler himself. Of the first nine trus- tees of the ‘trust” formed in 1882 he alone remained in this capacity until its dissolution in 1911 at the or- der of the United States Supreme Court, and it was he who was named to engineer the dissolution, after which he became president and di- rector of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey. He was the most ac- tice and aggressive fighter in the oil combine, and invariably represented the Standard Oil on the witness stand in the numerous hearings in connec- tion with the government’s suit to dissolve it This publicity was still further heightened by the publication of a score. or more of letters from Mr. Archbold to Joseph B. Foraker, then senator from Ohio, Representative Joseph C. Sibley, of Pennsylvania and other statesmen showing that large sums of money had been distributed for the alleged purpose of influencing favorable legislation at Washington. Mr. Archbold considered them as at- torney fees. The publication of these letters exposed Mr. Archbold to at- tack from every quarter. Began Life In Country Store. John Dustin Archbold was born at Leesburgh, O. July 26, 1848, and was working in a country store at ‘Salem, O., when he heard of the won- derful oil regions in Western Penn vania where men were becoming rich over night. In 1864 he went to the oil fields and became a refiner and buyer at Titusville. He became the agent of a new company, the Acmo, company, which proved to be an off- shoot of the Rockefeller interests, and from that time, in 1875, until his death he was an associate of the Rockefellers. John D. Rockefeller ‘““Random Reminiscences” of how he first met Mr. Archbold. In stopping at a hotel, Mr, Rockefeller was struck by the fact that on the hotel register was written in large characters this inscription: John D. Archbold, $4.00 a Bbl, “Four dollars a barrel,”” was Mr. Archbold’s battle cry, and though he did not succeed in putting crude oil up to the figure named, he did suc- ceed in attracting the attention of Mr, (Continued on Sixth Page.) and Dr. tells in his | custody of Mr, and Mrs. Brickley. | became | afternoon of Novem- |, RAILWAY LEGISLATION IS AGAIN URGED ON CONGRESS IN PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE LEAVES HER MOTHER FOR FOSTER PARENTS High School Girl, Center of Court Fight, Expresses Preference. —Dorothy Pad- old New mother, Hartford a twelve Hartford, Dec. more, the fifteen year Haven High school whose Mrs. Florence Padmore, of found her last week after vears search, is to remain with her foster parents, Mr. and Mrs. Eli J.| Brickley of New Haven, for at least a week more as Judge Shumway in the supreme court today continued until next Tuesday a hearing on the habeas corpus writ on which the girl was| brought into court because the attor- ney for the Brickleys had not been | retained until this morning and had | na opportunity to prepare a pleading. | Judge Shumway made an order that | the mother might visit the child at reasonable times for a week and not | remove the child from the general; | Mr. and Mrs. Brickley, with Doro- | thy, arrived at the court house about| 10 o’colck and had a cansultation with | their lawyer.

ATTACKS ON OPEN "CITIES DENOUNCED Pope Benedict Says Bombardments Violate Laws of God and Laws of Man. Rome, Dec. 4, via Paris, a. m.—In his allocution delivered be- fore the secret consistory here today, Pope Benedict bombardment of open cities and con- demned all those whe, he said, had defied the laws of God and man the present war. The pope said: “It is well to recall, aside from the | laws of God that if even the law of man was obeyed at present peace and prosperity would reign in Europe. If we neglect or disdain laws and author- | ity discord is the sure result. This is the highest soclal law. As a result of ignoring this law we see every prin- ciple of right violated in Europe, acts committed in defiance of the laws of God and man, peaceable citizens and even young boys taken from their homes to fight amid the tears of wives and mothers. We see open cities and defenseless inhabitants exposed to aerial attacks, and we see by sea and land nameless horrors.c I cannot but deplore against these crimes and con- demn all those by whom they are denounced the aerial in Favors an Increase in Freight Rates, if Nec- essary, to Offset New Wage Expense NO STRIKES UNTIL FACTS ARE PROBED Would Give Executive Authority to Assume Control of Rolling Stock in | Case of Military Necessity—Qor- rupt Practices Act, Webb Bill, Government of Porto Rico and Vo cational Training Discussed, Washington, Dec. 5.—President | Wilson’s address at the opening of the sion of Congress today domestic was wholly prinei- st devoted to pally the problem of railway legisla= tion. In the hall of the house with sena- subjects, tors and representatives assembled in joint session, President Wilson in ac~ cordance with the custom he began at the opening of his term, read his | address from the clerk’s desk, The president not only renewed his recommendation for legislation to present a nationwide railway strike. or lockout before there has been oppor- tunity for investigation, but defended it against the attack of organized and the “justifiable safeguarding by labor as nothing arbitrary or unjust and the ‘“justifiable safeguarding by society of the necessary processes of its v life.” Aside from recommendations for the passage of the Porto Rico govern= ment bill, the corrupt practices bill and the Webb bill to legalize Ameri- can collective selling agencies abroad, the president’s addr was devoted wholly to the railroad situation. The | only feature which had not been fore- ! cast was the elimination of the pro- posal that Congress give ‘explicit ap- { proval to consideration by the inter- | state commerce commission of an in- | crease in freight rates €6 ffeet addi= tional expenditures by the railroads caused by the operation of the Ad { son law. the in- the president took position that ‘“the power of the terstate commerce commission tg grant an increase of rates on the ground referred to is indisputably clear and a recommendation by the congress with regard to such a matter might seem to draw in question the scope of the commission’s authority or its inclination to do justice when there is no reason to doubt either. The other recommendations on the railroad situation made in a special message during the last session, which were not put into law, were renewed today. Today, Suffragis Are There. Galleries were packed when e president escorted by the usual com- mittee, walked briskly into the cham- s | ber and took his place at the clerk's desk, manuscript in hand. He was forced to wait while the demonstra- tion went on. Hverybody rose while the democrats and some republicans joined in cheers and applause. Wave after wave of shouts swept the chamber until Speaker Clark pounded for order. 5 The president smiled and bowed and as the demonstration subsided, began the reading of his address.
