ALLIES SPEED TROOPS TO ITALY [Contained from First Page.] as in the retreat from the Isonzo and lost few prisoners and guns. The Italian rear guards gave the invading vanguards much trouble, apparently more so than in the retirement to the Tagliamento. Official statements ana news dispatches throw little light on the progress of the Italian retreat from the Dolomite and Carnic Alps, nor is there any indication where this retirement will halt. While the Tagliamento line becan/e untenable through the drying up of the river, the streams behind General ,Cadorna are larger and less suscepti ble to sudden changes. The Italians £lso have the advantage ot more rail l'Sad lines and less mileage from im portant ports and manufacturing centers. The Austro-Germans, on the other hand, are getting farther away ; from their bases and their lines of supply and communication must be built up on the ruins left by the Italians. llritiMh Take I'rlNOiiers In the capture of the important po sition of Passchendaele, northeast of Ypr.es, on Tuesday the British took 400 prisoners. Crown Prince ltup preclit of Bavaria will not attempt ; counterattacks yesterday, giving the Canadians time to strengthen the I new Positio'n, probably the most val ! liable yet taken in the Flanders ad ! vance. From Passchendaele the Brit ish guns can reach many Important points and the British now threaten the whole German line from the coast to Lille. Hen | Poor Ilorvext • German submarines last week had the poorest harvest in British ship ping of any week since the intensi fied campaign began last February. Only twelve vessels, eight of more I than 1.600 tons and four of the lesser I category, were sunk by the Germans. The lowest previous week for vessels of the larger size was the week end | ing September 16, when eight were I lest, but in that week the total in | the smaller size readied 20. In total numbers lost the lowest previous week was that ending September 20, when thirteen went down. In the past four weeks seventy-five British I merchantmen have been sunk by ] submarines or mines, while in the [ last two weeks of April and the first two weeks of May, 175 were lost. AUSTRIAN ARMY OFFICER NOT TO PLAY [Continued from First Page.] early in the year and engaged Kreis ler for the reason that he had made a big lilt in Hurrisburg when he played here last year and because he regarded the artist as one of the leading violinists of the world. He did not know that Kreisler is an officer now in the service of the Aus trian Army, and that following t!ie cancellations of concerts at Sewick ley and elsewhere and following re peated urgings of Harrisburg people he had decided upon this course. Harrisburg has sent many hun dreds of its young men to the front. The air in this city is fairly charged with patriotism. It was said about the streets to-day that if Kreisler in sisted upon coming here even his personal safety would be in danger. Some of the local organizations al ready have discussed the proposed concert and have written the Tele graph and the authorities asking them tb use tlielr influence toward having the Kreisler concert can celled. When Kreisler appeared in this city previously and when Mr. Hand made the engagement, the United States was not at war with Germany and there was nothing but friendly feeling toward Kreisler, nut the peo ple now decline to patronize the art of any musician who has taken up arms against the United States or anv of our allies. Sentiment is running high against pro-Germans in this community. There are those who have been ex pressing their views, especially be fore women helpless to take their own part, and prosecution is serious ly discussed.

Liberty Loan Total Is Near Five Billion Mark; 9,400,000 Subscribers Washington, No. B.—Total subscrip tions to the Second Liberty Loan of IPI7 were $4,617,532,300. This is an oversubscription of $1,617,532,300 of the $3,000,000,000 asked by Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, who is au thorized to accept one-half of the oversubscription. Although the Treasury Department cculd have accepted one-half the oversubscription up to $2,00,000,000, and many persons strove for a total subscription of $5,000,000,000, Secre tary McAdoo to-night declared the loan to have been a "phenomenal success" and he congratulated the American people. The number of subscribers was 9,- 400,000, which breaks all' war loan* records, even that of the victory loan of Great Britain, to which 8,000,000 persons subscribed. As Treasurer McAdoo announced on i October 1 that only one-half of the oversubscription would be accepted, the Treasury Department will re ceive exactly $191,233,150 less than had the $5,000,000,000 mark been readied in the subscriptions.

PATROL ON FIRST Hl'X The police patrol made its first run last night, when Estella Hoffman, of 909 Capital street, called up police headquarters and said a man was in her house. The patrol, with a num ber of officers, was dispatched to the scene, and the house, was surrounded and searched. No intruder was found, and the woman confessed that the cause for her alarm was that she found her attic window open. A Trait of Distinguished Men It's peculiar, wonderful. A distinguished man's per sonality is expressed in his very garments, and radi ated to impress everyone with whom he comes in contact. i The distinguished ma 11 does not cover his per sonality with machine made clothes. Oh no! He rather accentuates it by wearing custom - tailored garments characteristic of him—HIMSELF. 20 years' experience in buy ing domestic and import ed fabrics and tailoring them for distinguished men—that's what we have 1 to offer anyone who de sires "clothing of expre§- | sion." A. J. Simms 22 NQRTH FOURTH ST. Harrisburg, Pa. NOVEMBER 8, 1917 OFFICIAL COUNT OF VOTE BEGUN BY COURT [Continued from First Pago.] whole city and county vote is record ed. As there are fifty-three districts in the city and seventy-one in the county this may delay opening the soldier returns until to-morrow, when all the other votes are tabulat ed. It is admitted that these votes will be the deciding ones in the city mayoralty Unlit. At present with re turns unofficially from Camp Han cock and Fort Oglethorpe and the city precincts, the count remains as it was with Daniel L. Keister leading: Alderman George A. Iloverter by eight votes. The contest will not be decided definitely until the official record is made of the Army vote. This is practically the only city of fice which- will be affected by the soldier vote. While there may be a slight variation in the official to tals for city council, it is certain that three of the candidates who are elected are Edward Z. Gross, Samuel H. Hassler, William H. Lynch, and that Charles W. Burtnett has a salV; lead over ex-Mayor John K. Royal, the fifth man. In the county fight interest cen ters on the official return in the cor oner fight. Early yesterday morning with about fifteen districts missing Dr. G. Willis Hartman was reported leading by a good majority. Eater, however, with all but one small dis trict heard from, Jacob Eckinger went ahead by about 100 votes.
