MOVE AGAINST YON • /MACKENSEN

BRITISH HOSPITAL SHIP TORPEDOED

The news from Europe continues to leak throng# the disorganised telegraph services in scrappy details. Rumania and the Balkans are still the chief theatres of interest. In Rumania the pressure of the enemy .on the Wallaehian front is heavy, and a tig tattle is reported to he in progress north of Crajova, the capital. Another report hints at a big demonstration against Von Mackensen in tho Dobrudja. Apropos, the Bulgarian Press is predicting a.German evacuation of the Dobrudja. - Meanwhile, the enemy has been Teinforced north of Monastir by a large number of German battalions. Nevertheless, the Allies axe making steady progress northward of Monastir. The : Germans have just perpetrated the latest, and, having regard to all the circumstances, most dastardly high * sea crime yet placed against their blackened name. The hospital ship Britannic, tho largest and finest vessel in; the British mercantile marine, was simultaneously attacked in the Aegean by two submarines, and sunk, with loss of life, under particularly cruel and tragic circumstances.
