TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN. SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1913. AUSTF1IANS TURN BIG GUNS RUSSIANS Both Sides Score Local Suc cesses on Carpathian Mountain Front. WARFARE IN AIR INCREASES Oar's Airmen II a Ul Toe's Towns In Poland and llukowina. Land Bat tics Also Gninin In Force In Latter Province. LONDON', April 2S. Austro-German forces Apparently are depending on heavy guns and local counter-attacks to dislodge the Russians, or at least tiold them in check in the Carpathians. The Petro?rad official report mentions the bombardment by the enemy with heavy iirtillery in "certain eectors," while the Vienna "War Office reports successful results of big shells used by both the Germans and Austrians. All reports agree that the general situation is unchanged. Aerial raids are becoming more fre noet. the Russians attacking Polish towns held by the Germans and Czerno witz, Bukowlna. The official Vienna report says: "The general situation is unchanged. On the Carpathian front in isolated en cacemcnts our artillery was successful in the sector of Nagypolany and that of the Germans was victorious near JCozlowa. Russians Lose Tfravtly "After the repulse of the Russian at tack It is comparatively quiet before our positions at Uzsok Pass. All the prisoners taken by us confirm the re port that the .Russians suffered severe losses. "We captured yesterday a strong van. tage point to the east of Uzsok Pass. "The situation In Southeast Galicia and liukowina remains unchanged." Petrograd officially announces: "In the direction of Lutovisk we made successful progress, capturing a portion of the enemy's trenches on Hill No. J 001, to the northeast of Lubnia, We took prisoners seven officers and more than 200 men, and captured two ma chine pruns. "During the night of April 21-22 the enemy took the offensive on the front Lubnia-Bucovetz-Sianki, but the move ment failed everywhere, the enemy be ing repulsed with enormous losses. "On all the rest of the front there was intermittent artillery fire. In cer tain sectors our positions were bom barded with heavy guns. linkowtna Battle Continue. "To sum tip, nothing of great conse quence happened during the day and the position remains unchanged." A Berlin dispatch says: '"Fighting has been proceeding with out interruption for the last few days to the northwest of Czernowitz, the capital of Bukowlna, according to pri vate telegrams reaching Berlin from that city. "A hostile aviator, who was throw ing bombs on Czernowitz, was killed." Only minor engagements are report ed to exist on the Prussian front. Near Memel, the seaport at the northern ex tremity of the East Prussian province, a Russian mounted force clashed with a German patrol and the Germans were driven back. In the region of Ossowetz a scatter ing rifle and artillery lre is a dally occurrence. Aeroplanes Arc Active. The greatest activity appears among the aircraft service. A Russian aero plane, driven by four separate motors and capable of carrying the weight of 16 men, has raided the Polish towns of Mlawa. near the East Prussian frontier, and Plock, on the Vistula. German aeroplanes likewise daily circle about the Ossowetz fortress, though they are kept at a distance by the Rus sian guns. One Russian aviator dropped a bomb on a German army transport near Ko petza, to the northeast of Ossowetz, and an observation point at Lopatuvatz in the same vicinity, on which the Ger mans had mounted a powerful electric reflector, also was destroyed by a bomb. A number of skirmishes are reported to have taken place at various points on the right bank of the Vistula River. The result of the fighting was not decisive. nrssiAxs sixk Turkish ships Supplies Destroyed and Army la Routed by Warships. TETROGRAD, April 23. The Rus sian Black Sea torpedo-boat squadron bombarded the Turkish coast between Arrhava and Artaschin on April 19. This 15-mile strip of coast. In which was located the quarters of the Turkish army operating In this region, was swept with shell and the barracks and j.rov.slon stores were ignited and de stroyed. A large number of Turkish roaEtwise vessels laden with ammuni tion and supplies was sunk. Turkish land forces were initiating a sortie under cover of their artillery at the same time. They were thrown Into a panto by the unexpected bom bardment from the sea and their supporting guns were immediately silenced. On April 20 all the Turkish efforts to start an offensive in this region ceased. PEOPLE LIVE BUT SIMPLY fCont'mied From First Page.) viJed into 176 districts. ' and the ober burgomeister issued a four-page proc lamation giving in tabulated form the locations and numbers of the bread card and bread stamp bureaus to which the householders In such and such atreets were to go for the bread cards for themselves, their dependents, their guests, and their servants. On the back page was an alphabeti cal list of the streets, with the number of the proper bureau opposite the name of each street. On the 13th all house holders had to go to the bureau and register themselves and those dwell ings under their roofs. A tax receipt ot a birth certificate had to be brought for purposes of identification. Alternatives Are Given. After each person was Identified and registered he received the bread card, which entitles him to buy for himself and his six pounds of war bread (20 per cent potato flour) and one and one-tenth pounds of pure white flour per person every two weeks between now and October 10. The purchases may be distributed over two weeks and at the end of two weeks a fresh batch of tickets is issued. Instead of the one and one-tenth pounds of flour each person can buy one and a half pounds of zwieback or double-baked white bread. This is a boon to many persons with whom the war bread, with its 20 per cent of po tato flour, dors not at first agree. Pome, indeed, it has made violently III for a few hours, but that was when it was eaten when it was too fresh. It should be at least two, and better three.- days old before being eaten. A curious fact is that this bread, the eating of which is now regarded as something of a hardship, was prized as a delicacy before the war. Then It was called not krlegsbrod, but solda tenbrod. and civilians who had friends in the army used to dicker with them for an occasional loaf. Nutritive Values Combared. Thirty grams of war bread is con sidered the equivalent in nutritional value of 20 grams of pure wheat flour. The first card empowering the pur chase of bread and flour is given free. But if the recipient loses it he must pay 75 cents for a new one. If he loses any of his bread tickets the authorities will not make good the loss. He must simply io without bread until the next issue of tickets. The system is extremely rigorous In the working of all Its details. Thera can bo no equivocation, funny business, or maneuvering, and if any is attempt ed it is promptly detected and the of fender is admonished not to try it again. The bread cards and bread tickets are Issued for each person in connec tion with the dwelling in which he sleeps and in no other connection, no matter how many hours of the 24 he may spend elsewhere. A dressmaker eating two meals a day with the household for which she is sewing must bring her own bread, for her employer can give her none without depriving a member ot the household of his share of bread. ITALY IS HOLDING BACK ST.VTE.SMAX SATS EARLY EXTBY IM'O WAR IS IMPROBABLE, Plausible Rraoon la Reeded sad Nego tiations "With Vienna Would Hare to Be Broken Off. ROME, via Paris, April 28. A promi nent Italian statesman said today that the participation of Italy in the war, at least in the Immediate future, seemed less likely now than had been the case for some time. "To enter the war Italy would first be obliged to break off negotiations with the Central Empires, which are still being conducted at Vienna," he explained. "The government then would have to find a piausible reason for denouncing the treaty which created the triple alliance. Even were that done. It is most likely that the Central Empires, under present conditions, would not consider such action as a cause for war. "Italy must And another reason If she desires to pick a quarrel with Austria. This might be in the form of an ulti matum on account of the gathering of Austrian troops along the Italian fron tier or on account of the unfortunate position of Italians under Austrian rule. It is easy to foresee, however, that Austria would not respond to any such provocative measure. Indeed, she would attempt to give Italy satisfac tion in every possible way, desiring to put this country in the position of the aggressor if ultimately Italy joins in the war." STEAMERS BEING DETAINED Italy Provides for Possible Needs of Xational "Service. BERNE, Switzerland, via Paris, April 23. Signor Contesso, general manager for the United Italian Steamship Com pany, who is at present in Berne, said today that the Italian steamer America did not get away from Genoa for New York recently because she had been de tained by order of the government. She is one of the best steamers of the line, and it was felt she might be required for the national service. Other Italian steamers are leaving according to schedule, but there is al ways a possibility of their being de tained by the government. TRIESTE CRISIS FEARED HUXGEH RIOTS MAY FORCE HAND OF ITALY, IS BELIEF. People March and Sing Italian Anthem. Roman Sympathy for !ke Race May Make Government Act. ROME, via Paris, April 23. Fear Is felt that the shortage of food in Trieste may result in disorders of such im portance that they will lead to serious tnuble here, where everything affect ing Trieste is watched with the closest Interest because the population of that Austrian crown land is chiefly Italian. The people of Trieste are reported to be marching through the streets re manding bread, crying, "Down with war!" and cheering for Italy. Under the rigid Austrian regulations of the past this procedure would have re sulted in arrests, as the display of Ital ia, colors or the singing of the Italian anthem was prohibited. If the situation In Trieste becomes worse It Is believed here It may be suf ficient to force the hand of the Italian government because ot the sympathy and excitement it would arouse among the people 'of this country. PASSPORTS ARE LIMITED State Department Not to Issue Cre dentials for War Sightseeing. WASHINGTON, April 23. In re sponse to inquiries. Secretary Bryan, in a letter made public today, reiterated the announcement that the State De partment does not deem it advisable to issue passports to persons who wish to visit belligerent countries of Europe for the mere purpose of sightseeing or pleasure. Referring directly to an inquiry about a proposed visit of a party of Ameri cans to England and France. Mr. Bryan's letter said: "It is sincerely hoped that the per sons to whom you refer will refrain from attempting to visit belligerent countries merely for curiosity or pleas ure. The department believes that the presence of American tourists in and about places where military operations are being carried on is most undesir able and can give such persons no as surances that they will be Immune from arrest and difficulties if they persist in attempting to visit euch places." BERLIN PUBLIC WORK BIG Improvements to Cost $02,500,000 Arc Being Carried On. BERLIN, April 11. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.)

The authorities of Berlin are about to order work begun on a new market hall which will be the largest in the world. The hall will have a total length of more than three-fifths of a mile. BATTLES. RENEWED ON FLANDERS LINE Germans Say They Crossed Ypres Canal-Allies Also Tell of Gains Made. HEAVY LOSSES CREDITED Artillery Battles Violent Between Meuse and Moselle French, Sup ported by British and Bel gians, Make Headway. LONDON, April 23. That a moment ous battle is under way in Flanders is clear from the news received in Lon don, but there is disagreement as to de tails. The Berlin official report today says the Germans have crossed the Ypres Canal, have taken four villages and captured 1600 French and British prisoners, besides a quantity of cannon. The Paris report says the allies gained ground in the same district. The vil lage of Steenstraate is mentioned In both reports. The late official account from Paris was timed 11:45 P. M.; that from Berlin 5:23 P. M. London believes the Germans may have captured this village and lost it again. The loss of life on both sides has been heavy. The Paris report says the allies took prisoners belonging to three different regiments. Artillery Battle Heavy at Center. Near the center of the long line the accounts agree that there has been heavy artillery exchanges. Combres. St. Mihiel and Apremont especially are mentioned in the official dispatches. The French official report Issued In Paris tonight said: "In Belgium the surprise caused by asphyxiating bombs used by the Ger mans to the north of Ypres had no grave consequences. "Our counter-attacks, vigorously sup ported by British troops on our right and also by Belgian troops on our left, developed with success. The Anglo French troopa gained ground toward the north, between Steenstraate and the Ypres-Poel Chapelle road. Our allies took prisoners belonging to three dif ferent regiments. "In Champagne, at Beausejour. we demolished an enemy gun protected by a casement which was enfilading our trenches. "On the heights of the Meuse, the enemy essayed three attacks, at the Calonne trench, at Les Eparges and near Combres. These were immediately stopped. 200 Germans Dead la Trenches. "In the forest at the 'Cow's Head" our progress was continued. We found In the captured trenches about 200 dead Germans. Our artillery blew up two ammtinition depots, and a company of German infantry in the vicinity was entirely annihilated. We captured a trench mortar, a machine gun and some material." The earlier report of the French War Office dealt with the events of yesterday. It said: "There were fairly lively engage ments last night in Belgium. In the bend of the Yser, north of Dixmude, Belgian troops repulsed an attack against the Chateau of Vicoque and In flicted heavy losses on the enemy. North of Ypres the Germans, by em ploying large quantities of asphyxiat ing bombs, the effect of which was felt for a distance of two kilometers be hind our lines, forced us to retire in the direction of the Yser Canal. "Toward the west and in the direc tion of Ypres toward the south, the enemy's attack was checked. Vigor ous counter-attacks enabled us to re gain ground and make many prisoners. "In the wooded valley near St. Mihiel, by an attack east and west of the po sitions previously captured, we took 700 meters of trenches and made about 100 prisoners. Including three officers." Germans Advsnee Around Ypres. The report of the Berlin War Office concerned Itself with Thursday's de velopments. It said: "In the western arena of the fight ing, during "the action of yesterday, we advanced from our front at Steen straate, east of Langeraarck, against the positions of the enemy north and northeast of Ypres. With a rush our troops moved forward along a line ex tending as far as the' hills soutn of Pilken and east of Douont At the same time they forced their way, after a stubborn fight, across the Ypres Canal at Steenstraate and Het Sas, where they established themselves on the western bank of the canal The vil lages of Langemarck, Steenstraate, Het Sas and Pilken were taken. At least 1600 French and British soldiers were taken prisoners and 30 cannon, includ ing four heavy guns, fell into our hands. "Between the Meuse and Moselle the active fighting yesterday again became more lively. The artillery battles were especially fierce at Combres. St. Mihiel and Apremont. as well as at a point northeast of Klirey. Infantry attacks on the part of the enemy followed only In the wooded country between Ailly and Apremont. The French pen etrated this region into certain sections of our foremost trenches, but they were partly driven out again. The fighting at close quarters still continues. "The village of Embremeuil, west of Agricourt, which had been taken by us and which was set on fire by the French with their shells, has been evacuated by our outposts. The hills to the north and south of Embremeuil were retained." FRENGHLEAVE 'GASZONE' GERMANS ACCISED OF" ISIXC AS PHYXIATING APPLIANCES. Britisli General Says Own Lines Were Drawn In to Conform With Allies, Who Had to Fall Back. LONDON. April 23. Field Marshal Sir John French, commander in chief of the British forces in France and Belgium, communicates the following under today's date: "Yesterday evening the enemy de veloped an attack on the French troops on our left in- the neighborhood of Blxschoote and Langemarck, on the north of the Ypres salient. "This attack was preceded by a heavy bombardment, the enemy at the same time making use of a large num ber of appliances for the production of asphyxiating gas. The quantity pro duced indicates long and deliberate preparations for the employment of devices contrary to the terms of The Hague convention, to which the enemy subscribed. "The false statement made by the Germans a week ago to the effect that we were using such gases is now ex plained. It obviously was an effort to diminish neutral criticism in. -advance. "During the night the French had I to retire from the gas zone, over whelmed by the fumes. They have fallen back to the canal in the neigh borhood of Boesinghe. Our front re mains intact, except on the extreme left, where the troops have had to re adjust their line in order to conform with the new French line. "Two attacks delivered during the night on our trenches east of Ypres were repulsed. . Fighting continues In the region north, of Ypres. "This morning one of our aviators, during a reconnaissance which he com pleted successfully, damaged a German aeroplane and forced it to descend. Our flying corps has brought down another German machine near Messines." BRITISH STILL HOLD HILL, 60 Iondon Official Report Says Ger man Attacks Have Ceased. LONDON, April 23. The official semi-weekly report of the British War Office, issued today, says: "The German attacks on hill No. 60, which had stopped at the time of issu ing the report of last Monday, have been renewed several times. These at tacks all failed and for the time being they have ceased. We hold the entire crest of the hill and so deny Its use to the enemy, who have attached great Importance to it. "There is not and there never has been any truth in the German official communication that the enemy had re captured this position. Luring the operations around hill No. 60 the enemy fired shells 17 Inches in diameter into the town of Ypres. "On April 21, In the neighborhood of Li Bassee. the enemy exploded two mines opposite our right. They failed to do damage to our trenches. Having discovered German mining operations in the neighborhood of Le Touquet, near Armentieres, we forestalled their effort this morning by exploding amine which we had prepared there. "On April 19 one of our airmen car ried out a very bold and successful single-handed attack on an airship shed near Ghent- He had to run a gauntlet of fire from the ground, directed by a captive balloon. In order to attack his objective. In spite of this he came down to within 200 feet of the ground and effected his object, causing a seri ous explosion in the shed." DRINK HAMPERS FRANCE PROBLEM OF INEFFICIENCY SIMI LAR TO BRITAIN'S. Chronic Drunkenness of Dork Labor ers Attended, by Grave Results. Men Incapacitated After S. HAVRE, France, April . (Corre spondence of The Associated Press.) The development of the anti-drink crusade in England is being followed closely In France, where many indus trial experts have long urged that ex cessive drinking among the industrial workers and manufacturing population tn France Is chargeable with a heavy toll of inefficiency. One of these experts. Professor Jo seph Reinach, has published the fol lowing programme of the average day's labor of a dock workman In a typi cal French port: 7 to 8 A. M., work. 8 A. M-, pay. K to 8:15. breakfast and drinks. 8:15 to 10. work. 10 to 10:30. aperitif (appetizer). 10:3O to It, work. 11 to 12:3l, lunch, with drinks. 12:30 to 3, work, then pay. 3 to 3:30. snack at bar. with drinks. 3:30 to 5. work, then pay. f. to 6:1R, aperitif. A:15 to tt, work. "From 6 o'clock," says M. Reinach, "most of the men are drunk. Over and above the regular stoppages noted above, the dockers slip away, as soon as they are not watched, for an extra drink in one of the many pothouses nearby. Not to speak of the wine which disappears from the casks in dock, this amount is estimated annually at several thousand tons. 'The chronic drunkenness of these dockers is attended by results no less grave than those due to the alcoholism of the workmen in the British arms factories." ENTIRELY UNCALLED FOR Some 50-odd men were compelled through stress of circumstances to go back on their word. In other words, they, were unable to call at this store and take out the suits we were making for them. A substantial deposit had been paid in every case, which, of course, has been forfeited. These suits were to cost $25 to $50. We are offer lng them at exactly half price, namely, $12.50 to $25, and will make needed alterations free. J. L. Bowman & Co.. 3d and Stark Sts. Adv.
