A London dispatch from a Moscow front correspondent reports Romanian forces south of the River Trotus in Moldavia capturing a line of trenches and repelling counterattacks with heavy losses to the enemy. Romanians advance on the Mizil to Begen corridor but withdraw, while defending fronts near Saringa and Jraibonst.
