PRESIDENT ITALIAN LINE HOLDS ASSAULTS FROM AUSTRO GERMANS-NO ' "CHiGfREPORTER IN BERLIN REPitS American Soldiers Carrr Out Successful. Ambush Attack on Germans. U-BOATS LOSE GROUND Reports Persist That Keren sky Has Gained Con trol of Capital. f Indications In today's offlcial news J from the Italian front are tbat the. Italian line la ct 111 holding on the Plate and on tbe critical Trentlno front while the straightening out pro. cess Is betas continued along the sal. lent between tbe upper Plate and the Sufana valley on tbe edge of the Trectlno district. Derllo's statement reports no change along tbe lower Pisve where the Ital ian reports have shown attempts by the Austro-Gerraaji forces to pierce the rlter Hoe aad compel Its abandon ment and the consequent loss of Ven ice by the Italians. It has been point ed oat that every day this lice is held counts heavily In Italy's favor, as the aotlo-Freach contingent In Italy will soon be on tbe fighting line to support the Italian army. The Rome war oSce statement to day throws a till more favorable light on the altualion from tbe entente. view. point The frustration of new . at tempts by tbe Invaders to cross the Plate la reported, while the compar atively email parties which previously bad secured a footing on the west side of the river have been held fast vir tually In their tracks. Continuation of the German advance la announced In the bill region south of FOotaao and Fell re where Rome concedes tbe retirement of advanced posts to previously prepared positions. It Is In tbis section that he Italian line forma an awkward salient In Its east and west extension from tbe Plate, and there hate been Indications for several days that the Italians were drawing out of It Berlin znakea no claim to farther ad vaccce In the TrcntlncT where the Ital. lans"are boldiag the hiU region safely so far against tbe threat of the drive aimed at tbe Venetian plain to out bank the Plave line. . American oldlera have carried out a successful ambush of a German -party , In No Man's I -and on the western ' front, kllllas and wounding a number 'of the en iny while German shells have caused a number of casualties In the American lines. An American patrol one night, re cently lay in tbe mud In wait for an enemy party for which they had ar. ranged ac ambuscade. A German de tachment of more than twice the sixe of the merlran party fell Into tEe trap. The enmy "troops were surprised and did not stop to fight scurrying away BY THE -SCHOOLMASTER' stretched all the way from Hamburg to can disturb the worLd ainv r,,,, AGAINST HEAVY with their dead and wounded. The meri.cans-suffered no. casualties. The merican artillery firing on the merican 'sector is becoming more ac tive and tbe Germans have been shell ing our trenches heavily. A number of. Americans have been killed or wound ed, one shell which dropped into a trench causing several casualties, m erican artillerymen also have been belaboring the'Germns strongly and it Is believed their shells have claimed quite a few victims. Germany's submarine campaign ap parently is losing its effectiveness as British losses during the past week were only one ship over l.COO tons and fixed under that weight. This was the poorest week the submarines have had since the beginning of ruthless warfare In February. The lowest pre vious week was that ending on No vember , when 1 vessels, including eight of more than l.GOO tons, were lost The best week for the Germans was that ending April 22, when 55 vessels 40 of more than 1,600 tons and 15 of the lesser category were sent down. Although Petrograd-has not been in communication with tbe Nystad cable station in Filand for several days, from Scandinavian reports persist that Pre mier Kerensky has gained control of tbe capital. Reports come also from Sweden that the Bolshevik!' maintain their hold on Petrograd and are pre paring for a stout resistance against the forces of Kerensky and Generals Komiloffand Kaledines. In Moscow tbe Bolshevikl apparent ly have been overpowered, an unoffi cial report received In Copenhagen be ing to the effect that General Korni loff has taken -the Kremlin where the extremists were besieged several days ago.- Another rumor says that Siberia has announced independence and proc laimed former Emperor Nicholas as emperor. The proposed new inter-allied war council has provoked a near crisis in Britsh politics. Challenged in the bouse of commons yesterday to ex plain bis Paris speech on the needs for such a cbuncll Premier Lloyd George read the terms of the agree ment which, he declared, made it clear that he council was merely advisory.

New York, Not. 15. Arthur Pollen, ;: noted British war -' expert, has made the following statement to the the As sociated Press on the submarine war: "Anything unsatisfactory in the military and political situation in Eu-i rope is balanced by the extraordinary , news that the German submarine., campaign has broken down altogether.? The submarine Is defeated. This is the most momentous event. since the United States declared war. It means we 'can all stay in and that America can really come in. ' f "Six months ago sfiipping was be-' Ing destroyed, according to some au- v thorities at a rate of nine million tons per annum. Had this loss continued as the Germans had the right to- ex pect not military victory, but a peace that would mean something much less- ' than defeat This was Germany's only hope .and it was the allies' only anx- . lety. For every one, including the : fJerman high command, knew that '. with sea communication reasonably safe the military defeat - of the Ger- ; man army was certain. "In the first fortnight of November ' J the rate of losses of British tonnage , .' of ships was greater than 1,600 : tons, . . each has fallen to about one million; tons a year. The present shipbuilding' capacity ' of Great Britain alone can -i ; t ; make this loss good in less than eight'. ' ; : months. At, the rate America, Great; Britain and' Japan are striving to at- tain, we should replace this loss ; in. less than eight weeks. . The 'rate of 'Y loss for the last week Is' actually less' i than the . anuaLU-oXOTnv peace times. It4Is not to be expected ; ' that losses can remain as low. as this, . ; They must fluctuate. But they should -i:' never cause 'us serious' uneasiness; i,;,Y again.' . ' , -JY "We may'be sure there will be a re--. action of optimism. For Germany's defeat at sea is final, universal and permanent whereas 'Germany's - sue- ; cesses on land are local, partial and " temporary. . And . her defeat at sea means that America's share in the war can be and will be decisive." . TO SUE FOR BREACH LIKKER CONTRACT Citizen Who Wants! Even Handed Justice Regard less of What. Happens. A well Intentioned citizen of Greens boro was very indignant yesterday and was talking of getting a lawyer to sue on a contract he iiad made. ' He didn't see very far Into his case, but just far enough ta imagine a great wrong; had been done him. He stated the case to a reporter in substantially the following manner: Five weeks ago I gave a man in the county six dollars in cash, and he agreed to bring me a gallon of corn likker. I kept on waiting and didn't , see him until yesterday, and he said the price had gone up to eight dollars a gallon, and I must come across with . the other two dollars before I could get the whiskey. I cussed him out and told him If he didn't make delivery by Saturday I would sue him. The ques tion Is,, could a man sue a fellow cit izen because he refused to do, an il legal act? Would it be taking money under false pretense to undertake to commit an' illegal act? Lots of quirks and quibbles in this thing, and after the citnzen looks a little further the chances are that he will not sue. "In telling Squire Collins about this case the squire said that not long ago. a citizen came to him with a trunk check and claimed tha the Southern railway had lost his trunk, and as it was full of likker he wanted to sue for it He said the likker had cost him a collar. ana a nair a quan, ana ne wasn't going to lose it. Whereupon Squire Collins advised his friend to go slow. If he proved in court "that he had such a precious cargo, bringing' it into any dry territory he would-perhaps get Into federal court and ne haa bet ter take his loss uncomplainingly. The Instinct to sue the company was finaly banished, and. no suit was brought. ; : . HOOVER . IS IMEEE8TED. - t. ; . H Trenton. X. J.. Not. 15. Food .
