STILL INTACT.
THE ROUMANIAN ARMY ESCAPES.
Australian and N Z. Cable Association. LONDON, December 7. Reports received in Paris indicate that the Roumanian army escaped intact. It is believed that the Roumanian retreat from Wallachia was due to th© fact that the transport of Russians from Moldavia to Wallachia was impossible owing to the congestion of the Bucharest-Jassy railway in consequence of the evacuation of Bucharest. It is understood that successive Roumanian lines of defence have been prepared between Buzu, 60 miles north-east of Bucharest, and Jalosista. The Russians are attacking most vigorously in Moldavia. They have captured the enemy's first line ten. miles from Gyimcs Pass.
