The success of the Germans is ad- mitted by the Petrograd war office, which announces that the Russians, after stubborn resistance against sev- cn onslaughts, were finally compelled to fall back on their second line of trenches. Elsewhere on the eastern front to the Carpathians, there has Dbeen jittle’fighting, according to the cfficial communications. In Dobrudja Region. In Dobrudja the advance of the Russo-Rumanian forces southward continues and Petrograd records a battle with Field Marshal von Mack- ensen’s troops in the region of Hern Tchernavoda, abandoned recently by the Rumanians. At Tchernavoda is the briwge of the railroad running be- tween Constanza and Bucharest, and it is for this bridge the Russians and Rumanians are fighting. Petrograd also announces the occupation of sev- eral towns between Hirsova and Tchernavoda. Berlin says there have been no important changes in Dob- rudja. Rumanians Pushed Back. On the Transvivania-Rumania front Archduke Charles has assumed the offensive and pushed back the Ru- manians. In the Predeal sector stub- born fighting continues, with both the Austro-Germans and the Rumanians claiming progress. The Austrians have almost completely recovered the ground lost in the Georgeny Moun- tains November 4.

In 2ddition to the hope of electing a congressman-at-large from New ex- ico, the democrats had one grain of comfort tonight. It was that an of- ficial count may disclose that Thomus J.

They con- tended the chances were that Scully had been the victor by a few votes over Robert Carson, his republican opponent, to whom the election previ- ously had been conceded by a narrow margin. SUMMARIZING ACTIVITIES OF BERMAN SUBMARINES For Submission to President Wilson On His Return to Washington. Washington, Nov. 10.—A complete summary of the situation growing out of recent activities of German sub- marines is being prepared at the state department for submission to Pres- ident Wilson on his return to Wash- ington Sunday. While officials are not inclined t6 discuss the subject in its present stage, .they admit informally that the outlook is more disturbing than it has been at'any time since the sink ing of the channel steamer Sussex. Official information still {s incom- plete in all the ases being investi- gated by the department, Including those of the British passenger steam- er Arabia and the British freighter Marina, on which six Americans lost their lives. Reports from British sources have saiq that both ships were torpedoed without warning. The American em. bassy at Berlin was instructed last Week to ask the German foreign of- fice for its version of the sinking of the Marina. The embassy has not been heard from, but confidential ad- Vices received here today from Ber- lin said the embassy had been in- formed that the incident would be thoroughly investigated as soon as reports from submarines now cruis- ing had been received, but that the German government had not chang- ed its submarine policy and did not believe the ship had been attacked without warning. Aside from the specific cases about which inquiry is being made, dis- quiet has been caused here by the general sweep submarine warfare has taken recently. Officlals fear that the submarines are operating on such 2 scale and under such conditions as may be impossible for them to avoid endangering Americans illegally.

Chicago; Nov. 10.—Rumors that a German submarine had sunk a steam- er in the Gulf of Mexico caused the wheat market to have a sinking spell late today after prices had touch- ed u mew high record for the season. The close was weak at 1828 1-2@18§ 3-4, December, and 192 1-2 May, with the market as a whole 1 1-2 lower to a like advance as compared with yes- terday’s finish. Corn gained 5-3@ 13-8; oats 3-8@5-8 and provisions 25@100. It was not until the last fifteen minutes of the session that wheat prices underwent a decided setback. Profit-taking on the advance had been unusually heavy during the pre- vious hour and appeared to have about exhausted the available buying power for the time being. The bears seized the opportunity and pressed the selling while the pit was disconcerted by the prospect that shipments from Guif ports and from the Atlantic sea- board would perhaps be greatly cur- tafled by the supposed peril from sub- marines. In this connection more or less uneasiness was aroused by no- tices that several eastern railroads have given notice of a temporary em- bargo on shipments of erain, al for the embargo to traftio | Tucket Washington Sunday Night. ‘Williamstown, Mass., Nov. 10.—Now that the campaign is over, we may all address ourselves to the welfare of the nation without thousht of _partisan feeling,” declared President Wilson in his first public specch since the na- tional election, delivered before a dele- gation ot Williamstown residents and Williams college students, who greet= ed him here Jate today.
