The Italian Government has received ft note from Austria nsklns for n fur ther explanation of the new law of na tional defense, recently enacted, under which additional soldiers aro called to tho colors, and hinting that it does not seem entirely compatible with Italian neu trality. The Government lino dclivcicd a most carefully worded reply which leaves no pretext upon which intervention might be precipitated. In clCcct, thla icply tomewuat mcomcuuy explains mat tic how law la nlmnlv a necessary d recall- I tlon for national lcfcnae. Prince lllsllop Kmlrlcl. of Trent, who organized a plebiscite of loyalty and dovotlon to Emperor Francis Joseph, has announced that tho danger of tlm cetston of thut province to Italy has been averted, as tho Emperor will not renounce his sovereignty, which the in hobitants petitioned him to retain. Tho Bishop has Invited tho inhabitants of other provinces to follow tho examples of Trent, nnu thus avert their separation from Austria. The announcement Is regarded as inosf significant. It confirms tho failure of tho nesotlatlono for Italian neutrality, which Is nttrlbuted to the supposed re fusal of the Inhabitants to become Italian citizens. Tlieso negotiations weru based ' oi. proposals that Austria cede Trieste and tho Trcntlno to Italy in return for Italian icutrallty. Tho German Consul at Snn Ttcmo, on tho Illvlera. has warned Germans to leave Italy. An cxodUK from the Itlvicra, whore Germans are very numerous, has now started Trinco von Buclow, the Gcrmnn Am bassador, la reported to have proposed a now solution of the boundary question. It Is. that the territory which Austria might cede to Italy bo occupied by Switz erland durlns tho remainder nf tho war ' and turned over by that country to Italy When penco is concluded.

LABORITES RESENT CHARGE THAT DRINK IS BRITAIN'S PERIL Imputation of Excessive Indulgence by Working men Denied by M. P.'s at Great Demonstration at Norwich. GERMANS CROSS VSER AND CAPTURE TOWN Kaiser's Troops nt Last Gain Foot hold on West Side of River. LONDON. Aprlt 6. The Gormnn forces have made a slight gain on tho Yser front in Belgium, taking the village of Drel Gratchen on the west side of tho river from tho Belgians. Although this Is the first time the Kaiser's troops have gained a foothold on the west side of the Yser for weeks, it la not believed hero thnt any strong attempts will be made In this region, as floods, which can bo brought about nt any time by opening the sluices, offer an almost Insuperable barrier to a general advance. Thousands of German soldiers have passed In crowded troop trains traveling across Flanders, ns a part of the wide spread redistribution of forces between W dKVCaalern nnd western fronts, which has caused so much speculation during !be last week. Some of the trains which halted nt Liege on tho way from Cologne on Saturday were so packed that tho soldiers sat on the roofs of tho cars. LONDON, April B. British labor leaders Joined In protest at a great demonstration In Norwich last night against tho Imputation that tho safety of tho nation ls imperiled by tho oxctsslvo drinking of" tho working men. James Kelr llnrdlo and Frederick W. Jowett. Labor members of I'arlla meat, were cheered by n great throng when they vehemently declared that the charge of excessive drinking in tho labor rt'tiks wns untrue. On the other hand, not only the Arch bishop of Canterbury, lit tho course of his Easter eermnn In Canterbury Cathe dral, but many other prominent clergy men throughout the country, spoko at length of tho drink question, almost lit tnilably taking tho Government point of view. "lrnleBs wo can decisively destroy the Insidious lure to Intoxicating drink." said the Archbishop, "the whole Issues of the war, we ure told, may be affected. "Can it bo so? Ih It thinkable thnt for wnnt of effort and discipline brought t- bar upon ourselves at homo wo shall let the splendid devotion of nur brothers and our sons In trench and battleship be wasted? "To every thoughtful man nnd woman such a notion Is Intolerable, nnd wo have set ourselves to see whether there bo any way In which by oxamplo or by fel lowship wo tan help to ease the stress of temptation nnd to carry our part of the common burden. "Wo ore confidently assured that If In British households generally the uso of alcoholic drink was to be voluntarily suspended during the continuance of tho war the effect would be so startling ns to change the whole situation. If that be so, aro there any of us who will willingly hold back? "Th King hns announced bis own rendinuss to set an example, and with whatever influence my ofllco elves me 1 desire lo impress upon the church and the people tho responsibility of the 'yes' or no' which thus becomes ours. "J mn In a position to tell you how confident the King Is that tho response will bo ready and widespread. Tho lrndeishlp nffcied to lis Is, so far lis I know, unexampled.
