(Spegial to the Wihig London, Nov. 10.--It is thought probable here that a large portion of Von Mackensen's German-Bulgar- Turkish force invading Rumania via Dobrudja has been trapped by the sudden dash of the Russo-Rumanian forces, which are to-day reported from Petrograd to be battling for possession of the Cernavoda bridge- i head. The news came suddenly when it was still thought that the opposing lines 'in Dobrudja were fighting many miles north of the Constanza railway, of which the Cernavoda bridge across the Danube river is the famous and important connect- ing link. If the Russians have occupied Dunareav, two miles from Cernavoda in any force, their guns now control the bridge and approaches to the bridge and have possibly. cut off a large portion of the Teutonic forces attempting to retire to the other side. Later despatches also report that the Rumanians have suddenly de- veloped a heavy offensive north of Bucharest, in the neighborhood of the passes through which the enemy managed to penetrate Rumania through Transylvania.
