tho Important ono from the Austro-Ger-man

Progress on tho northern hnlf of the
Oallclan front, tho Tarnow region, has
been slower than In the south. The Rus

o. Mountnln a fortified crest MOO to
1000 feet high between the Ulala nncl
Duna'Jcc Rivers to enable them to get
great quantities of stotes accumulated
behind Tarnow nway and covrr the re

Tho Russians fortified the mountain
until It became a veritable Gibraltar, but
the Austrlans attacked It with desperate
valor.

In these operations. Tho 42-contlmoter
(17-Inch) mortars In action were, how
ever, not tho noted German guns, but
of Austrian make.

that tho principal portion of the Russian

positions In tho Carpathians to tho west
of Lupkow Pass, cannot make good its
retreat.

Justifying Italy's entrance Into tho wnr
on tho side of the Allien.
Long beforo the Cabinet assembled a
great crowd had gathered outside tho
palace. As each member entered ho wag
greeted with cheers. There, was obvious
anxiety on the part of the populoco to
leurn the result of tho delliierauons, ns
It wttfl felt thnt the llnal decision could
not long bo postponed.
Just prior to the Cabinet meeting, at
which Premier Snlanndia presided. It
was reported Hint tho Government had
decided to postpone the opening of Pallia
input on May 12.
Itnly has boon warned of the conse
quences of entering tho war on the side

to which ho had tuturncd after an in
spection of both battle fronts, tho Kaiser
notified Prince von Iluelow thnt the Eng

that within a fortnight tho Russians will
be driven out of Gallcla. Ilaly was
warned, under direct Instructions from
tho Kaiser, that Austria's causo Is Ger

Tho Cabinet met again today. It was
announced thnt the question under con

ceived hero nnnounces thnt tho proposed
mission of Count Goluchowskl, former
Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs,
who was expected to reach Uomo yes

believed that Count Goluchowskl was to
be tho bearer of Austria's reply to Italy's
demand for a elenr statement of the
position of tho dual monarchy regarding
tho cession of territory to Italy In re
turn for continued neutrality.
The abandonment of this mission is
Interpreted hero to mean that Austria ,
realizes thnt It would be useless and
that even an offer of further concessions
to Italy would be powerless to prevent

The Government has sent a sharp note
to Turkey, questioning the truth of tho

mand tho rebels at Tripoli.
All of the correspondents of tho Aus

BERLIN SEES flRAVE DANGER
IN AUSTRO-ITALIAN CRISIS
Officials Refuse to Abandon Hope for
Peaceful Settlement.
BEKLIN, May 7 (via The Hague).
German officialdom refuses to abandon
hope for a peaceful settlement of the
Austro-Itallan crisis. No attempt, how
ever, Is mado to disguise the seriousness
of the situation. The chief hope Is that
Italian ofllclals who have tried to do
business with each side, will be Influenced
by tho Italian pledges to the Triple Alli
ance and will accept the Austrian con
cessions which, It Is declared, are almost
o.b great as Italy could hope to secure,
even though she was able to prosecute a
successful war.
Tho Lokal Anzelger, In an Inspired edi
torial discussing the situation, says:
"Despite the undeniable seriousness of
the situation, slight possibilities exist,
even at this late day, that we will be
able satisfactorily to overcome the great
difficulties In the way of a peaceful set
tlement." The Tageblatt says:
"While there Is no new development
pointing toward Improvement, It Is also
true that nothing has happened which
points to a change for the worse.
