Special Telegraphic Service.
PETIiOGRAD, Die. II.—From semi
official sources it is learned that no 1
hope is entertained of stopping the
German allies until they have overrun
the whole of Roumania. It is now
certain that the plan of the Ger
man command rs is to capture at
least the southern portion of Bess
arabia in order that the Teutons may
have unobstructed passage of the
Danube river.
It is officially conceded that the
Germans are sweeping northward in
Roumania in a resistless tide.

F. W. Willie of this city who owns
tlio largest interest la the team I.aw
icnce had says that three of the dogs
etc young and strange to the team
und that perhaps they gnawed them
selves loose while Lawrence was
v.'i i tbering a blizzard. He was well
equipped with sleeping bags, axe,
cooking pots, and everything a mush
er should have though this was his
t't-t winter In Alaska. Lawrence has
had some experience with severe
winters in Canada. Willie believes
that he is safe somewhere though
he has a shorter string of dogs than
when he started. *
