In Vxirnt.nrv tables, before all the Ger-

- . . . . .
The contention ot the students is mat,
inasmuch as the German people are
taxed for the support of the universi
ties, it is only fair that Germans have
first choice of seats and other facili
ties; and foreigners should be con
tpnt. to take what is left, or do with
out seats altogether when none is
left. .
The question came up recently in
one sector of the front. An Italian
'retirement from an advanced position
on the Istiko river is admitted. It is
from this district that the Austrians
have been exerting their heaviest
pressure and in the sector along this
front the Rome war office reports a
continuance of the fighting with
varying fortunes.
The Italian steamer Moravia was
reported to have been sunk by a Ger
man submarine. The British steamer
Danewood also has been sunk.
The British and Germans have con
fined their recent fighting mainly to
bombardments and to sapping oper
ations. There have been several minor
infantry attacks and bomb throwing
expeditions by both sides, but in these
no material advantage accrued to
either.
Comparative calm prevails along
the Russian front, the only fighting
of moment noted being north of Lake
Miadzoil where the Russians put down
a German attempt to capture their
trenches.
In the Caucasus region, where the
Turks and Russians are engaged the
situation is reported unchanged.
Eighteen persons have been killed
and a score injured in an Austrian air
raid on Ban, Italy.
The American note to Great Brit
ain and France concerning the deten
tion and interference with neutral
mails has been made public. Only a
radical change in the present meth
ods by which France and Great Brit
ain restore to the United States its
full rights as a neutral power, will
satisfy the American government, the
note says.
