A Roumanian communique states: An enemy attack at Crahova Valley was repulsed. There is intense artillerying elsewhere, otherwise the position is unchanged. A German communique claims the capture of Petesci, an important railway junction in Roumania. Paris, November 29. Le Journal’s correspondent at Bucharest narrates that at dead oi night ho and a companion crossed the Danube in a small boat and landed in Serbia. They were welcomed by a score of Serbian officers, whose uniforms were magnificent, though in tatters. These officers belonged to the bands of Serbian soldiers, numbering 10,000, which escaped to the mountains, and still carry on a guerilla warfare against detachments of Austro-Germans. / The Roumanians recently captured the town of Gornimlanovatz, on the bank of the Danube, but all the Aus-tro-German efforts to suppress the valiant 10,000 failed. A French aeroplane recently brought a Serbian general from Salonika with instructions. The general afterwards escaped by aeroplane.
