I.—Negotiations be tween the Italian and Austro-Hun garian military commanders for an armistice are proceeding, according to advices received in London this after noon. Fighting already may have come to an end. Washington, Nov. I.—Official Rome dis patches to-day describing the victorious sweep of Italian and Allied armies that is demolished the Austrian front, say the lines are moving for ward in such great leaps that it no longer is pos sible to identify towns retaken or to count prisoners and guns captured or Italians liberated. With the Austrians everywhere in flight and the Itai ion armies on two wings about to unite, it is said to be impossible to foresee where the few enemy divisions will stop running. Sixty thousand Italians held by the enemy to work on defenses in occupied territory already have been released. Rome, Nov. I. In their offensive against the Austrians on the Monte Grappa front in Northern Italy the Italians have pressed the enemy so strongly that his front has collapsed, the war office announced to-day. The Italians have forced the gorge of Quero, have passed beyond the spur east of Monteresen and are advancing in the Piave valley. J Italian Headquarters East of the Piave, Nov. ' r— The Aus trians continue to retire hastily in the plains and ,4 Allies are capturing many prisoners, the number of which cannot be esti mated accurately. In the mountain regions the Austrians are resisting some what, but their defensive power is waning rapidly. • 1 he great leu tonic alliance, which for four years has carried I the greatest war in history and often seemed to have almost achieved success, is tumbling to pieces. Bulgaria and Turkey have surrendered, Austria, with anarchy reigning throughout the kingdom, is begging for peace, and Ger many is anxiously awaiting the terms of the Allied nations. Break of Nations Momentous In fact, the news of the breaking up of the enemy nations on their home fronts is more momentous than even reports of trcmen-l ious events in theaters of actual battle. Turkey apparently has given up everything, agreed to the pening of the Dardenelles and the Bosphorus and thrown her self upon the mercy of the Allies arrayed against her. In this 1 [Jiase of the war, the United States is not an active participant, -his country has not been at war with the Ottoman empire, i Entry of the Black Sea by British, French and Italian warships! may be announced at any time, with the final act of the drama! in that region of the world hut a short distance away. Assistance! to Rumania and intervention in Southern Russia probably is a ; matter of bu : a brief period. Austrians Face Disaster Austrian armies fighting on Italian soil face a great military disaster, for the rush of the troops commanded by General Diaz] has not been halted by Austrian appeals. Proposals made by! plenipotentiaries from Vienna have been referred to the Inter-j Allied War Council by the Italian commander, but the work of I wiping out the stigma of the defeat of Caporetto has not beep j stopped. Fifteen Austrian divisions are reported to be trapped) in the mountain sector between the Brenta and Piave rivers, l while the Austrian forces between the sea and Belluno are in \ dire-peril of being annihilated. Over 50,000 prisoners have been! 'iPbptured by the Allies since the drive began. Austria Scene of Anarchy At home, Austria seems to be a seething hotbed of anarchy.; Railroads of the most vital importance have been cut, rioting of a serious nature has occurred in many of the larger cities, and the I imperial authorities at Fiume, Prague and possibly other cities have given up control to the Slavish and Czech national com mittees. Germany now seems to be virtually cut off from Austria! by the action of the Czechs in Bohemia. Berlin May Know Today From Paris conies a report that the terms of the Allies will be' made known in Berlin to-day. The shifting of the sittings of the 1 Inter-Allied War Council from Paris to Versailles is viewed as an : indication that the official, and, possibly, the final phase of the momentous meeting of entente representatives has been reached. 1 For the Soldiers Five dollar* contributed to the I lilted War Work t'nmpulgn be tween now nnd November 8, will furnUh one Harrlahtirif aoldler wltli nil the privilege* of the V.
