Advices from Switzerland represent the conditions of Austria as bordering on panic. The Italian victories have caused such alarm in Vienna that the Kmperor has rushed to the ftont and made radical changes in the high com-; mand in an unsuccessful effort to j stem the tide. The Austrian press . hardly ventures to discuss the mili tary situation, despite the fact that a battle is raging on which the fate of the empire may depend. On the heels of a barely crushed revolution in Bohemia conies trouble In Transylvania, said to be due to the refusal of the agricultural inter ests to accept the official terms for the regulation and sale of their pro duce. More definite facts are un known, as Transylvania is under mar tial luw and virtually cut off from the rest of the country. llow serious the agricultural situ ation throughout the empire has be come may be judged from the fact that the secret• economic conference between the representatives of Ger many and Austria-Hungary which began on August 7 and was intend ed to settle the mutual food dstri butlon for the winter had perforce to be abandoned without accomplish ing anything, owing, it Is stated, to the universal opposition of the agrarian interests. The failures of peace maneuvers has proved a terrible shock, as word had gone out from the highest quar ter that peace was certain almost im mediately. in this connection the fc-mperor and the Empress are said to have declared repeatedly that they were determined to avoid another war w-inter at all costs. Hitherto there had been two obstacles to an Austrian peace: first, the refusal to abandon Trieste and the Trentino to Italy; and, secondly, the fear for any friendlier feeling has disappear ed of Germany. Now Italy bids fair to settle the first difficulty once for nil. The Austrian army is reel ing, and if the Italian effort can be maintained a sudden Austrian dis aster will follow. 0. U. A. M.

RUSSIAN ARMY NEEDS RULE OF IRON HAND [Continued From First Page.] ' with the terrible evils of disorgan ization and insurbordlnatlon. Soldiers Kill Olllcers "In the present month." General Kornlloff said, "soldiers had killed four regimental commanders and other officers and ceased these out rages only when they were threat- ] ened with being shot. Quite recently one of the regiments of Siberian Rifles, which had fought so splen didly at the beglnhlng of the revo lution, abandoned Its positions on th Kiga front. Nothing except an order to exterminate the entire regiment availed to cause it to return to its positions. "Thus we are implacably fighting anarchy in the army," the com mander, continued. "Undoubtedly it will f\nally be repressed, but the danger of fresh debacles Is weighing constantly on the country. Situation is Had "The situation on the front is bad. We have lost the whole of Galicia, the whole of Bukowlna and all the fruits of our recent victories. At several points the enemy has crossed our frontier and is threatening our fertile southern provinces. He is en deavoring to destroy the Rumanian army and is knocking at the gates of Riga. If our army does not hold the shore of the Gulf of Riga, the road to Petrograd will be opened wide. "The old regime bequeathed to Russia an army which despite all the defects in its organization never theless was animated by a fighting spirit and was ready for sacrifices. The whole series of measures taken by those who are completely foreign to the spirit and needs of the army lias transformed it into a collection of individual groups which have lost all sense of duty and only tremble for their own personal safety. "Russia Must Act "If Russia wishes to be saved, the army must be regenerated at any costs. We must Immediately take measures such as I have referred to which have been approved in their entirety by the acting minister of General Kornlloff then outlined the P 1 jJ] I J >ortant these measures, ' n addition to restoration of the death penalty, which are: First restoration of discipline in the army by the strengthening of the authority of officers and noncommissioned of ficers; second. improvement of the financial position of officers, who have been In a very difficult position third i. r f C i e i military operations; third, restriction of the functions of committees, which al though managing economic affairs of the rementis, must not be permitted to have any part in the decisions re garding military operations or the appointment of leaders.
