    AUSTRIAN OPERATIONS IN
CARPATHIANS COLLAPSE:
RUSS TO INVADE HUNGARY
Petrograd, April 9, 12.15 P. M., via
London, 2 P. M.—With the Russian
forces in possession of all the main
summits and slopes of the Beskid
mountains, army, officers here assert
the Austrian operations in the Car
pathians haw collapsed. The Hussion
general staff is now considering the
beet approach into Hungary.
The operations centering about Mes
olaborouz, including the important
points of Bartfeld, Lupkow and
Uzook, appear virtually to have ended
with the on the defensive
along the" whole line and perceptibly
weakened. The deep snow which still
covers the I'arpathian ridges stands
in the way of a rapid advauce into
Hungary. Once this difficulty is over
come and the Russians reach the
southern slopes, where signs of spring
are beginning to appear, the most se
rious obstacle to a further advance
will be the artificial defenses which it
is assumed have been erected. <
The country between the San and
.Laborozar rivers is considered to pro
vide the best route. The Russian staff
is of the opinion that the Germans al
ready havo transferred all available
troops from other fronts to defend this
region and that therefore they would
be unable to offer any more formidable
opposition than heretofore.
On the other hand it is expected
that the German answer to Russian
offensive will be the development of a
new movement in Poland, starting from
Thorn or Cracow. But the invasion of
Hungary is regarded In Petrograd as
a foregone conclusion unless the Ger
mans are ab> to transfer a formidable
force of first line troops to stiffen the
Austrian armies.
In view of these conditions, the
talk of a separate peace for Austria-
Hum*ary has been revived. Such a
possibility is discussed widely in the
Russian press and in diplomatic cir
cles. It is based largely on the report
that the attempt of Emperor Francis
Joseph to enlist the influence of the
Pope in this direction.
From the first, it has been maintain
ed here that tie only terms Russia
would consider would be the unquali
fied concession of all Slavic demands.
Russian officials have never conceived
the possibility of such concessions un
less a decisive victory should be won
by the Slavic nations now at war.
LATE WAR~NEWS SUMMARY
CMtiannl From First E'afe.
is not announced. Otherwise there is
no change along this front.
Russian staff officers regard the Aus
trian operations In the Carpathians as
having collapsed and are considering
the best route for an invasion of Hun
gary. It is said in Petrograd that all
the main summits and slopes of the
Beskid mountains are now in the hands
of the Russians
On both the western and eastern
fronts battles are in progress which
may affect vitally the future course of
the war. In the French territory be
tween the Meuse and Moselle rivers
the allies are attempting to force back
the German wedge. The Paris war of
fice claims a large amount of ground
Tias been won, but Berlin contradicts
this. The loss of life is probably
heavier than that in any other engage
ment in the west since the battle of
Soissons.

WOMEN DISCUSS PLANS IE
FURTHER SUFFRAGE CAUSE
Members of Party in State Convention
Here Advance Practical Methods
of Gaining Publicity In Campaign
to Win the Franchise
"Shall we wear the black and white
veil and gain publicity through this
method f" was one of the many prob
lems that confronted members of the
Pennsylvania Woman's Suffrage party
at this morning's session of a two-day
convention in the Board of Trade
building.
Some time ago an enterprising New-
York manufacturer suggested that an
admirable way in which the women
might gain their cause would be to
wear a black veil, on the bottom to be
inscribed the words, "votes for wom
en." The suggestion, however, aft or
much discussion by a number of county
chairmen, was rejected as not being in
accord with the truly educational and
sincere methods th«it have marked the
progress of the campaign thus far.
Means of furthering publicity in car
rying out the future work of the cam
paign occupied all of the session, when
many suggestions as to what could be
done as well as what has been done
were vigorously discussed. Principal
among these was publicity through the
newspapers, posting of bills at conspicu
ous places, public meetings and through
manv other social mediums.
The flower garden publicity method,
which has been in vogue in' many of
the counties, was also strongly ' en
dorsed. These gardens are planted
with flowers of all descriptions, but
always in the party's color, a bright
yellow. It is believed by members
that this morning's discussion will be
instrumental in establishing many more
of these gardens throughout the State.
During this afternoon session ward
and precinct work was the principal
topic discussed, largely bv the presi
dent of the state association, Mrs.
Frank M. Roessing.
A large delegation will attend a
motion picture exhibition to-night ou
"\our Girl and Mine," and a reel of
pictures taken at the casting of the
women's liberty bell at Troy, X. Y.,
last week.
The women's liberty bell, which the
suffrage party hope to ring on election
l, i'?ht at Independence Square, Phila
delphia, was a wide campaign feature
discussed at the session yesterday aft
ernoon. According to the plans now
formulated the bell will be carried
all over the State on an auto truck
in a carefully mapped out itinerary.
The trip will start May 15, at Towan
da, Bradford county. It will then pro
ceed westward through the northern
counties, covering the towns of Can
ton, Wellsboro, Coudersport, Smeth
port, Bradford, Warren and Dubois.
Froni there a jump will be made to
Clearfield, after which the party will
go in a southwestern direction to Al
legheny.
The bell will reach Pittsburgh, Julv
4, when the big suffrage demonstra
tion will take place. From Pittsburgh
it will take a zig-zag course, passing !
through nearly all of the remaining
counties. Johnstown, Huntingdon.
Lewistown, Harrisburg, York, Lancas- 1
ter and Reading, will be anions* the i
places to be visited.
r> P ™- V *' Ul r<Bwh Philadelphia I
October 30, wlign it is believed a
large street parade of the suffragists i
there will welcome the bell. I
Those who took part in the bell i
discussion were Mrs. Katherine Ruseh
enberger, who has just given the as- i
sociation $2,C00 to purchase the auto
i S S K ivin S bell; Mrs. I
. Roessin S. president of the
Mate Association: Miss Hannah J.
Patterson, chairman of the woman suf
frage party, and Mrs. George Pierce
county cnairman of Philadelphia.

SPOT CHANGES
Store Will Discontinue Several Lines
and Put in Ladies' Coats and Suits
There will be some important
changes at the "Spot," which, as near
ly everybody knows, is a live store,
selling clothing for men and bovs,
shoes, furnishings, etc., at 6 South
Fourth street. The departments de
voted to shoes, men's furnishings and
leather goods will be discontinued to
make room for a new department to be
devoted to ladies' coats and suits.
The stock of shoes, furnishings, etc.,
is to be closed out at once and, with
this purpose in view, prices on these
goods have been reduced to a minimum
to hurry the selling. A big lot of ex
traordinary bargains are announced in
an advertisement in another part of
this paper.
SATISFIED WITH BUILDING RULES
Jackson Not Likely to Seek Mandatory
Laws for Theatre Construction
No legislation in the matter of the
regulation of the building of moving
picture theatres has as yet been pre
pared in the Department of Labor and
Industry, which has supervision of
such matters, but if, after examination,
such legislation is considered necessary,
Commissioner Jackson will have it pre
pared and introduced.
The rules made by the Department
regarding moving picture buildings at
present are considered by him as suf
ficient. to cover everything necessary,
and it is not certain that new legisla
tion will be required so long as the de
partment's rules are adhered to by the
owners of picture theatres.
