London, Nov. 24. If German official reports today are
; accurate, General Von Falkenhayn's vise has closed still
tighter on eastern Rumania. Berlin claimed occupancy
of Orsova and Turnu-S'everin.
With Craiova, which they announced captured early
in the week, but the fall of which is not yet admitted in
Bucharest statements, the Germans are apparently now
f in control of the three largest cities in eastern Rumania.
y Whether the Rumanian army, which Berlin claimed
. . was being hemmed in about Orsova, has actually been en
j, circled was the question with which military critics here
were most concerned today. They hoped that this force
- ? had been able to withdraw with success and this hope
1. was sustained by. the rapidity of the German encroach-
ment indicating, it was believer, an unopposed advance,
i due to retirement of. the Rumanians.

IS VERY0E1CRATIC
Attended Public School and
Is Known As Best Mixer
In Europe
By J. W. T. Mason.
(Written for the United Press.)
New York, Nov. 2'i. A large gain to
democracy, iu Austria-Hungary, with a
corresponding fall in the power of the
Teuton militarists may be the most im
portant result of the Archduke. Carl's
ascension to tho Hnrpsburg throue.
The new emperor was not brought up
as n probable ruler of the most aristo
cratic and precedent-governed court in
Europe. Ho is only a grand nephew
of the late Frnnx Josef aud-iu bis youth
there were several lives between him
and the imperial crown. For this reason
he wns educated much more informal
ly than if the chance of his succession
to the throne had been stronger.
He attended public school lor a time
and imbibed a strong liking for democ
racy, which never has left him. He has
the reputation of being the best "mix
er" Europe has known among her niod;
ern monarchs, with the possible excep
tion ot.the Into King Leopold of Bel
gium. - '
The attitude of tho nw emperor to
ward liberal government is understood
to approximate mute nearly the consti
tutional leanings of the present German
kaiser's father, than the militaristic in
clination of the kaiser himself. For this
reason tho possibility of differences de
veloping between the German -and
Austro-Hungarian thrones must bo tak
en into consideration by the statesmen
of the central empires.
Instead of tho kaiser dominating tho
new 20 year old head of the linrpsburgs.
it may be that the" young mail, with
his physical school traditions will exert
a profound influenco upon democratic
tendencies in Germany as well as in his
own country. If Austria-Hungary, un
der her new emperor, were to give great-
er power to the people in public affairs,
it might be that the end of tho war
would be drawn nearer.

to five thousand -VUbdta bandits at

gress nt noon today Mexican De Facto
Consul. , Soriano Bravo stated. Officers
nt tbe Juarez Comrnnndencia expressed
fears that tlie ammunition of tue l ui
huahuti City garrison would be exhaust
ed before night.
Yesterday nf tefnoon a train with all
the sjMrilable ammunition at Juarez was
started southward. Carrauza military
authorities at the border today had no
news of it. Duo to lack of men, only
:i0 guards were sent as escort to the am
munition train. Doubt as to the outcome
of the battle caused orders to be issued
to hold all trains now in the yards at
Juarez under steam, ready to start
south.
The heaviest fiithting in Chihuahua
City is centering in the1 western part of
the city between the waterworks and
tho penitentiary. Lato reports stated
that Villa is gaining ground and the
capitulation of the city is looked for in
official circles here. .- - '
The Villistas have gained a footnoui

tiuaJiua City, cutting off retreat by rail
way toward Juarez, should tue Uirran

Ono Carranzista general, two colonels
and 100 soldiers of the de facto forces
were killed in yesterday's battle, a mes
sage .stuted. The names were deleted,
but .it is thought the general killed, may
have boen Ozuna. At the Mexican con
subtte here it was admitted that three
high officers were killed.
Mexican Consul Bravo issued a state
ment this afternoon that the morning nt
tuck of the bandits bad been repulsed
but that fightinir continued and "was
becoming more general. "
Renewed His Attack.
El Paso, Texas, Nov. 24. Another
fieroe attack upon Chihuahua City was
launched by Villistas early today. From
the southern and western sides of the
northern Mexican capital 4,000 bandits
made a simultaneous assault and at 10
o'clock today the fighting still was
in progress.
A message from General Trevluo, .
commnndinit the Chihuahua City, to Con
sul General Garcia at Juarez, reported
the renewal of the assault . upon the
city.
From tho wording of the wire 're
ceived by Grncin. it is inferred that Vil
la has penetrated into thooutskirts of
the city
A code message to mining representa
tives here told of large bodies of Vil
listas in position west of Chihuahua
City last night waiting for daylight. It
is believed Villa threw these troops
upon the city early today.

However, early today Carranzista offic

CONFERENCE ENDS IN
"PASSING IT TO WILSON"
Labor Has Warm Meeting
When Adamson Law Came
Up Today
By Robert J. Bender.
(United Press1 staff correspondent.)
Washington, Nov. 24. President Wil
son will be given a free rein by tho
railroads of the country in working out
legislative remedies for industrial dis
putes. It was learned today assurances
to this effect have coma from railroad
officials.
Tho reasons are twofold. First, it
has become known tho roads, devoting
their entire time in combatting the eon- -stitutionality
of ' the Adamson eight
hour law, have not considered formula
tion of a plan which would meet tho
approval of the brotherhoods.
fiecond, the road executive believed
the president can be depended on 4y .
themselves, brotherhoods and the pub
lic to put forth a feasible plan that wilt
climiuate the strikes to which transpor
tation systems now are subjected and
which would be supported by all parties
concerned. t
It wns admitted today after frequent
conferences of the . railroad executive!
to formulate some definite plan of elim
inating strikes and lockouts, it was de-
Wilson." In this connection, it was ex
plained that the executives have reach
ed the' conclusion that any such plan
submitted by them eoulrl not be regard
ed "the best and most satisfactory
since it might be looked upon as a
measure constructed "in submission to
the acknowledged power of labor and
tempered with threat of strike by the
workers," ' ' ,
A Tentative Agreement. '''
Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 24. No iaforv
mution regarding the ngrecment reach
ed here today by railroad officials and
government representatives as to wheth
er the Santa t'e or the Missouri, Okla
homa ft Gulf ease has been setneted as
the case to test the validity of the Ad-.
r-mson eight hour law in the United
States supreme court will bo gives out
until word has been received from
Washington. '. -
E. Marvin Underwood, assistant Uni
ted Stntes nttorney general, who ba
boen in conference here with other gov
ernment representatives and railroad of
ficials, made the declaration at noon to
day. He further stuted that a reply
was expected from Attorney General
Gregory this afternoon.
Underwood said a "tentative agree
ment" had been reached and forwarded
to Washington for the approval of At
torney General Oregory. He would
make no intimation whether the .Santa

on the floor of . tho American Federa

the general subject of the shorter word

of -the federation were ready to press
home tho advantage given them hi their
long fight with tho federation adminis

shorter Ijours by legislation rather than
sticking tight to lubor organization

Tho reply of tho administration i
that tho Adamson act wus thrust upon
