The toll taken by the Gor man submarine U-21 In Its raid Satur day in the I-isli Sea In the vicinity of Liverpool, stands at three ships, the steamers Ben Cruachen, Linda Blanche and the Kilcoan, the latter a small vessel. The crew ot the Kil coan was landed o the Isle of Man by a coastwise steamer. In addition a German submarine also has torpedoed two British steam ers In the Kuglish channel near Havre the Toko Maru and the Icaria. The Irish Sea raider easily made her escape and shipping interests, confi dent that she has returned to her base, ordered a resumption of normal traffic. This under w ater Emden is the same vessel which last September torpe doed in the North Sea, the British cruiser Pathfinder, with a loss of 246 lives, and later destroyed two British steamers off Havre. She found nu merous vessels in the waters to which she has centered her activities. In addition to the three vessels she is known to have sunk, at least five oth er steamers were chased by her. These include the steamer Graphic, with 100 passengers and a crew of 40, and the smaller boats, Atreus, Ava, Kathleen and Edymion.

Henry Cabot Lodge, Republican Senate leader opposing the Adminis tration's ship purchase bill. Cannon Holding Sway. Paris. The French war office Is sued the following statement of the progress of the war: "The struggle is confined on almost every front to artillery combats. The cannonading was intense at numerous points. Our artillery has everywhere secured the advantage." BRIEF WAR NEWS PEACE PARTY IS MOBBED Italians Urging Neutrality are Rough ly Handled In Rome. Rome. Troops with fixed bayonets had to be called out to re-establish or der at a meeting which had been or ganized by senators, members of the chamber of deputies and other prom inent persons, with the purpose of for warding the movement in favor of Italy's maintaining neutrality in the war. A large number of persons, mostly republicans, w ho are against the main tenance of neutrality, gathered at the entrance to the hall and attacked the neutralists. The police being insufficient, troops were called out and restored order. After this incident the anti-neutralists attempted to approach the Aus trian embassy, crying, "Down with Austria!" "Down with Germany!" "Long live France" and "Long live the war!" The troop3 again had to be called on to disperse the crowds. Germany Forbids Exporting Potash. Berlin, via wireless. The govern ment Issued a decree prohibiting the exportation of potash and potash products. TEUTON ALLIES ARE VICTORIOUS IN EAST London. Sweeping claims of mili tary successes along virtually the en tire eastern front, except in the ex treme north, are made in an official report from the Austrian war office. It is asserted, that in Poland, on the Warsaw front; in Galicia, Bukowina and northern Hungary the Austro-Ger-man allies are battering down the Rus sian resistance. The rearward communications of the Russians in Galicia are threatened the report says, by the Austrians, while the Russian forces which invad ed Bukowina and northern Hungary have been unsuccessful, and in Poland the trenches of the Austro-Gsrman ar ' mles are approaching the Warsaw forts. No mention Is made of east Prussia, which, according to Petro- grad reports, now is menaced by a new offensive movement on the part of the Russian army of invasion. Re ports from the Russian war office re cently have indicated that the Austri ans have gained some advantage In the fighting in the Carpathians, but neither the Petrograd nor Berlin state ment has shown important changes on the Warsaw front. The end of six months of Europe's treat war finds the armies of the na tinns completing arrangements for a new series of operations or actually encaeed in campaigns the extent oi which hardly was anticipated when the declarations of hostilities were made. In Flanders, France and ten tral Poland a deadlock still exists, but largely because of Russia's tremen rtnna resources and the action of Tur key, the aphere of operations has hm u-iilfilv extended. Russia alone is engaged In fighting hostile armies from Tilsit, far in the north of east Prussia, to Tabriz, In Persia, a distance of more than 1500 miles. Only that portion of her tern tory bordering on Roumania Is free from menace, but according to her re ports all Is going well with her im mense armies. The Russian outiians inz movement In northern east Prus sia is said to be gaining momentum. The armies on each side of lllstl have cut the German railway between that city and Memel on the Baltic. On the southern front In east Prus sia another army is advancing toward the German fortress of Thorn, wnue still another is holding a line of en trenchments which protect Warsaw and which General Von Hindenburg has been trying to batter through for three months. Other armies are again preparing to meet a big Austro-Ger-man force which is attempting to re gain Galicia and Bukowina, thereby turning Grand Duke Nicholas' left wing. Battles in the west still consist of local engagements, although the Ger mans, who apparently are preparing for an extensive offensive before the allies get their full strength into the field, occasionally deliver rather more serious attacks. These are scattered all along: the front from the sea to the Swiss frontier, but always come back to that portion of the allies' line which lies between the Germans and the French coast towns. The Argonne, too, has been the scene of another attack, and in this case, according to a German report, success fell to Emperor William s forces, who say they have taken over 700 prisoners and counted between 400 and 500 dead. To the eastwardM'the Muscovite troops are battling against the Turks in the Caucasus and Persia. They ap parently have inflicted another defeat on the Turkish forces, for the Russian official report says their opponents are retreating to Tabriz, while unoffi cial dispatches say that the Russians have rcoccupied that city. There has been more outpost fight ing in the vicinity of the Suez Canal, but the latest reports say the Turks are withdrawing their advance posts. There still is Bome doubt whether they have definitely committed themselves to the march they must make across the desert to Invade Egypt. Washington. Armistice In the sen ate legislative struggle over the ship purchase bill, which seems destined to take historic place in the annals of the Vulted Slates congress, ended at 10 o'clock Monday, when the scn ate reconvened after a recess since Saturday midnight. When democratic leaders consented Saturdnv to recess at midnight repub lican opponents of the bill Insisted that It was a sign of weakening, but the generals of the administration forces insisted that they would carry the fight to the republicans with more vigor than ever throughout the week. Thev are confident that three or four days of continuous session will force a roll on the Fletcher substi tute, which is the ship bill as amend ed In caucus, and that thereafter the measure will move quickly through re maining parliamentary stages without much difficulty. Republican leaders are just as de- ermlned and confident that they cau keen up the fight until March 4. if necessary, and that the bill will not be permitted to pass at this session ol congress. House May Sustain Veto. What will be the fate of President Wilson's veto of the Immigration bill because of the restrictive literacy test Is another subject of supreme Inter est in the congress for the week. That some democratic members who voted for the bill do not propose to vote to override the president's re jection already la known and house leaders are not certain that the re quired two-thirds vote can be pro cured. Should the bill fall to receive a two-thirds vote It will die. If it passes, few doubt that the senate would give it considerably more than the necessary two-thirds majority, It having passed there originally by 60 to 7.
