While no formal arrangement has been made as yet for common action by all neutral countries in respect to contraband and shipping during mari time warfare, it became known that the United States had received the sympathetic support of practically all neutral nations in its negotiations with Great Britain. Recognizing the interest manifested by the neutral governments in the Initiative taken by the United States, copies of the British reply to the American note were ordered delivered by Secretary Bryan to all their diplo matte Representatives in Washington. When the first note was sent there were many formal requests for copies and it was regarded as significant that the British note has been sent to them voluntarily. Food Inq u iry Made in Congress A resolution calling on the secretary of agriculture for information as to the production, consumption and ex portation of cereals, beef, pork and other food products, and for details as to the prices of wheat, was intro duced by Representative Farr, of Pennsylvania. Mr. Farr explained that he wished to ascertain whether there was any danger of a food short age in the United States because of the enormous increase in exportation since the outbreak of the European war.

" FRENCH WIN AT SOISSONS But German Gains Claimed In the Ar gonne*; Perthee Trenches Taken. Berlin, by wireless to London.—The war offlee admitted that the allies had gained a foothold in the German trenches north of Soissons, but declar ed that they were unable to make fur ther progress, and that the battle con tinued. In the Argonnes It was said the Ger mans were the ones who had gained. At Perthes, it was declared, they had recaptured trenches recently lost to the French. Gallic reports of an action along a line extending southward from the Nieuport and Ypres regions were con firmed, though it was stated that the engagement was confined to the ar tillery. A French assault at La Moisseils, northeast of Albert, was reported re pulsed with heavy losses. In the eastern war zone It was said there had been little change in the situation, though the Germans were slowly gaining on the Vistula. Sea F ig ht Not Credited. Rio de Janeiro.—The minister of marine. Admiral Alencar, said that the rumor of a naval combat off Rio Grande del Norte, probably originated in the departure of the Invincible from Pernambuco, which coincided with the passing of the Argentine dreadnought Rlvadavia, three miles off shore. Naval officers discredited the ru mor of the battle. ALLIES MENACE DUAL MONARCHY London.—The present position of Austria-Hungary seems most critical. Threatened from the east and from the south, and with Roumanla prepar lng to cast her lot with the allies, the war is being brought to her front door. Russians are sweeping through the Austrian province of Bukowlna, ac cording to Petrograd, and a Geneva report says an Austrian army has been trapped in Galicia by the Czar’s forces. Servla, with her army more or less rehabilitated, is described here as at- tacking the dual monarchy from the south with renewed vigor. On the other hand, German armies are again striking at Warsaw from two directions. Along the Vistula to the west of the Polish capital heavy fighting has been resumed, and at the same time a new attack has been launched from the north. The Petro grad war office describes the fighting as more and more desperate, and ad mit* that the Germans made advances at many points, but says they were subsequently driven back again. A national employment bureau reaching Into every section of the Uni ted States will be put in operation by the department of labor this week. The general plan of the employment bureau was outlined by Mr. Caminetti as follows: Notices will be posted in all post- offices announcing that applications for work or workers will be received by the postmaster, who will be sup plied with forms to be filled out and forwarded to the department of labor agent in charge of the zone in which the office is situated. "Applicants will then be Informed of the place where they can obtain work of the kind they seek and at the nearest point to them the postal serv Paris.—"The Russians have pntered ice acting as the distributing and col lection agency for applications and re Transylvania,” telegraphs the- Petro grad correspondent of the Matin. plies throughout the transactions.” “The Austrians have hastily cvac uated the whole of Bukowlna,” he Idaho House Probes.
