ROUMANIA PUT IN PLACE.
OVER HUNGARIAN QUESTION
OCCUPATION OF CAPITAL
(Received 8 a.m.)
PARIS, Aug. 8
Roumanian troops have crossed the Danube and occupied Budapesth ; owing to expiry of the period fixe.l for Hungarian acceptance of the armistice. The Supreme Council not only refused to recognise Roumania's right to impose fresh terms, but held that exaction of reparations and indemnities was vested in all the Allies.— Reuter. BERLIN, Aug. 8. The "Tageblatt's" Budapesth correspondent states that the American Government requested the Roumanian command to withdraw the armistice conditions, threatening a stoppage of supplies to Roumania.—Reuter. VIENNA, Aug. 8. The newspaper "Die Zoit" states that the Hungarian Ambassador fled to Vienna after burning secret documents. Hungarian journalists and officers subsequently went to the Embassy and thrashed and ejected the staff. Enormous enthusiastic crowds demonstrated all night long before the hotel in Budapesth where the new ministers are staying. The city remains, orderly.—Reuter.
