proceed to a rearrangement which is
already rearing completion, to enable
the adjacent armies to unite their
front
‘^Although we were obliged to do
this and fall from the Carpathians,
we simultaneously made a decisive
offensive in Eastern Galicia, by
which we realised results very essen
tial to our left wing and inflicted a
severe defeat on the Austrians on
the Dniester along a front of more
than 360 versts. In the five days, be
ginning May ?. we captured in the
region about 20,000 prisoners and
forced the enemy to retreat in dis
order across the Pruth.
“On May 14 our long range bat
teries at Przemysl dlap-^rsed a column
of the enemy which was approaching
from the west and Inflicted heavy
losses.
“In the other sectors of the Fan and
eastern slopes of the Carpathians no
actions are reported

The Austrian army defeated on the
Dniester on May 14 could not main

the Pruth River except in the region
of Kolomea, where it Is b?lng assist

“Our cavalry, which forced the
bridge headworks in one attack, oc

"We are continuing an energetic
pursuit.
“In the region of Shavll fighting is
developing under good conditions for
us. We repulsed several attacks west

north. We threw It back.”

LONDON. May 17—The Zeppelin

early to day was chased aJl the way
across the North Sea to the Belgian

. afternoon That more damage was

due to the vigilance, of the British
aerial patrols. Near West Hinder
' lightship, where the Zeppelin got
within range of the German guns, the
chase was discontinued
It is believed by Admiralty officials
’. that the German Zeppelin was dam
aged off Nieuport. The following
statement was given out:
“Th* Zeppelin which attacked
Ramsgate was chased as far as West
Hinder lightship Off Nieuport It was
attacked by eight naval machines
from Dunkirk. Bombs were thrown
• at the airship and it wr.s apparently
damaged, as smoke was seen.”
“Three machines were able to at
tack the Zeppelin at close range.
Flight Commander Bigsworth dropped
four bombs when 200 feet above the
airship and columns of smoke were
seen coming from one of her com
partments The Zeppeline then rose
to the great height of 11,000 feet with
her tail hanging down, and it 1s be
lieved she was severely damaged.
Though all our machines were fnx-
posed to heavy fire from the ZeppJltn,
there -were no casualties.”

Germans Undaunted
By Terrible Losses
(Rperinl Cable In The Atlanta Gear-

ROTTERDAM. May 17—The Ger
mans are still sending forward aJl
available troop* in pursuance of a
further determined effort to break
through the British lines at Ypres.
Nothing t*eem« to daunt their deter
mination to obtain a position on this
salient They have suffered terrible
lossep and h&ve been pushed farther
backward by the French north of Ar
ras, in the direction of Lille, but they
are far from abandoning their des
perate attempts to hack their way to
Ypr»-s along the road from St. Jullen.
During the last two days the fight
ing has been fierce, especially Satur
day afternoon, when the enemy made
a concerted attack on a very small
front, only to be repulsed after severe
hand-to-hand fighting The pressure
on the Allies probably would have
been still greater and longer persist
ed In but for the splendid counter
move by the Allies fatthtr to the
north
Exactly at a chosen moment an ad
vance was made In the neighborhood
of Rteenstrante and Het Sas. This
came as a great surprise to the Ger
mane. who had to rush up reinforce
ments which were badly needed at
the same moment for their effort to
break through the British front.
At Lille the Germans are In a great
state of anxiety. They are working
feverishly to strengthen the fortifica
tions of what is already an im
mensely strong fortress They be
lieve that Lille is the objective of the
Allies’ offensive between Armentieres
and Arras; in fact, its outlying de
fense works are already under the
fire of the heavy British guns.
These poslfionr are threatened by
the successful advance of the French
north of Arras, as well kr by the
fierce thrusts of the British in the
neighborhood of La Basse
Lille probably will be the center of
decisive events in the near future.
Germans Repulsed,
French Claim Gain
By FRANKLIN P. MERRICK.
(Special Correspondent International
News Service.)
PARIS, May 17.—Violent attacks
launched by the Germans in an ef
fort to win back ground lost to the
French on the heights of Lorette, in
Northern France, have been repulsed,
it is announced in an official com
munique issued by the French War
Office to-day.
Four counter assaults of the Ger
mans at Notre Dame de Lorette.
noMh of Arras, were all checked by
the hot fire of the French The cap
ture of 146 prisoners and four mi
trailleuses at Het Sas is also an
nounced. Het Sas is In West Flan
ders.
The communique shows that hard
fighting is still in progress upon the
battle field north of Arras and in the
sector of Ypres.
The text of the communique fol
lows:
“In the region of Het Sas our prog
ress has continued. We captured last
night a house strongly fortified by the
enemy and passed, on the east bank
of the canal, the first German line,
taking 146 prisoners and four mitrail
leuses. A counter attack by the en
emy was completely checked.
“There ie nothing new’ to the north
of Arras, where the rain has again
begun to fall, except an extremely
violent artillery battle In the region
of Lorette and a bloody check In
flicted in that same region to four
counter attacks by the Germans, who
suffered heavy losses. On the rest of
the front there is nothing to report.
“On the Oise, near Balllv, the Ger
mans. doubtless with the intention of
making an impression upon our skir
mishes. placed before our lines a
green Turkish flag bearing the cres
cent. Our African troops immediate
ly responded to that provocation by
shooting down the flag. A skirmish
er immediately set out to get t and
brought It back to our lines.”

ENVOYS READY TO FLEE
By BRIXTON D. ALLAIRE.
(Special Correspondent International
News Service.)
ROME. May 17.—Two conferences
between Prince von Buelow’ and Bar
on von Macchlo were followed to-day
by reports that the Teutonic Ambas
sadors had asked for their passports,
but these were denied by the Italian
Foreign Office.
Despite the offlefal denial, however,
The Mespagerc announced to-day
that two special trains had been made
up for and held in readiness for
Prince von Buelow and Baron von
Macchlo.
The city is quiet to-day, the pro-
war demonstrations having spent
their strength Sunday. Only a few
meetings were held.
The international situation Is ad
mittedly serious, however, owing to
rumors of a clash between Austrian
and Italian troops on the frontier.
The Italian Cabinet held a secret
sewdon Sunday night, at which a fur
ther credit of $20,000,000 is said to
have been voted for immediate mili
tary and naval “necespitles ”
Though King Victor Emmanuel has
refused to accept the resignation of
the Salandra Gabinet. tho parlia
mentary situation remains as obscure
as that relating to international af
fairs. The Giolittian and Clerical
parties are maintaining silence, which
is inexplicable at this time. Few be
lieve they have been converted to
war, but none attempts to guess what
their next move will be.
Parliament Postponed.
According to The Tribuna, the re
opening of Parliament will again be
postponed for several days because of
“expected complications of a most
serious nature.”
A w’ave of patriotic enthusiasm
sw’ept over Rome when the official
announcement was made that Pre
mier Salandra and his Cabinet would
retain their posts.
Fifty thousand men and women
Joined in a mans meeting in Populo
Square, where every reference to the
King, to Salandra and to war was re
ceived with cheers. When the meet
ing adjourned an attempt was made
to march to the Qulrinal, but troops
frustrated this plan because of the
fact that the Austrian Embassy was
on the route the crowd wished to fol
low.
Bitter controversy continues be
tween the interventionist and neu
tralist organs over reports and de
tails that the Triple Alliance pact
was declared null and void on May 4
Senator Frassati, editor of The Turin
Stampa, a Giolittan organ, declares
it is “impossible of belief” that For
eign Minister Sonnino was capable
of such a breach of diplomatic eti
quette as to pledge Italy’s support to
the Allies before abrogating the
treaty with Austria and Germany.
Says Leaders Oppose War.
The Tribuna takes the same atti
tude, declaring that if there is any
accord with the Allies at present,
Sonnino Is alone responsible.
The Stampa asserts that four-
fifths of the Senate, three-fourths o:
the Chamber of Deputies, every ex-
Mmister of the state and every
Knight of the Annunciation who by
right of the order are cousins of the
King, are averse to war
“Under these conditions.” con
cludes Senator Frassati, “it is impos
sible for Premier Salandra to pledge
the support of the nation to the Al
lies.”
Another Cabinet meeting was
called to-day for this afternoon.
I^ate Sunday night there was a
great demonstration before the resi
dence of Premier Salandra, at the
Foreign Office and at the War Min
istry. Government officials were
wildly cheered as they arrived or leit.
The War Office was open all night.
Pro-war demonstrations oocurred
Sunday at Milan, Venice, Naples,
Genoa and scores of smaller towns.

Monday’s early mail brought to
Governor Slaton's office more than
3,000 letters begging clemency for Leo
Frank, among them pleas from United
States Senators, Governors, memners
of Congress and other men who are
among the most prominent citizens of
the United States.
Senator W. E. Borah, pf Idaho, was
one of the petitionees In Frank's be
half. stating his opinion that the
death sentence should be commuated.
Philander C. Knox, former United
States Secretary of State, wrote from
Pittsburg asking commutation for
Frank. Myron T. Herrick, of Ohio,
former Ambassador to France and
former Governor of Ohio, also ex
pressed an opinion that the Governor
should save Frank from the gallows:
Letters and telegrams in the same
vein have come from Senator Re-rl.
of Missouri; Senator C. S. Thomas,
of Colorado; Senator Newlands. or
Nevada; Frank Walsh, of Ua-shlns-
ton, chairman of the Industrial Rela
tions Commission Fred A Delano,
member of the Federal Reserve Board,
and Mayor Rolph. of San Francisco.
Letters From Governors.
Letters have been received from
Governors of other States, among
them Governor Brumbaugh, of Penn
sylvania; Governor Hall, of Louis
iana; Governor Hatfield, of West Vir
ginia, and Governor Ferris, of Michi
gan. .
It has almost universally been the
custom that the Governor of one
State should remain silent concerning
a problem with which another Gov
ernor has to deal, particularly In the
matter of extending clemency. The
letters that have come to Governor
Slaton from other Chief Executives
are probably the first instances of
such petitions In the United States;
certainly this Is the first case in which
the petitions have been so general.
With Monday’s heavy mail, there
are probably more than 75,000 letters
and telegrams from every part of the
United States urging that Frank be
saved from the gallows. Of all the
correspondence in connection with
the case, fewer than twenty letters
have suggested that the death sen
tence he exenutd.
Letters Are Crated.
The letters have been kept In a
large crate, three feet deep and four
feet long. This has long since been
filled to overflowing, and a little moun
tain of letters accumulated above Its
level, so that another box as large
will be necessary to hold the petitions
Necessarily, the larger portion of
the appeals must remain unread by
the Governor. None of them, It Is
likely, could have an effect on the final
decision, coming as they do from oth
er States and from persons whose
helpful knowledge of the case must be
practically nothing. The task of read
ing 75,000 letters would be a year’s
work for a single person.

Realty Man Admits
Using Clients Money
War depression prevented S. G.

$300 of a client’s money, which he ad
mitted he had used in the consum
mation of another deal, according to
Mlinn’s statement to Judge Ben H.
Hill, in Criminal Court, Monday when
arraigned on a charge of larceny aft
er trust. Munn made a strong plea
for mercy, pleading that he had in
tended no wrongdoing, and that it had
been his purpose to return the money
he had used.
Judge Hill Imposed a sentence of
two years, and then ordered it held up
until Saturday, at which time he will
consider a plan to release the real es
tate. man on probation. The charge
against Munn was made by P. W.

Further recommendations by the

“We desire to call particular at
tention to the fact that the great ap
parent bad condition of the schools
in our mind is brought about by in
efficient service of the repairing force,
and if the proper attention was given
to the schools and the repairs made
propmptly as the conditions require!
it would be better for their physical
condition and the comfort of those
attending.
“So much complaint has been made
In regard to the plumbing conditions
In the schools we desire to report that
in the whole the plumbing is In better
condition than we expected to And
it, and while some of it is of differ
ent types than would now be installed,
if properly looked after it will con
tinue to be sanitary and serviceable.
In some places we have recommend
ed that the plumbing, if possible, be
placed In the basement of the build-
ing.
Repainting Recommended.
“We especially recommend that a
large number of the buildings be re
painted. both inside and outside. This
will preserve the property, and we
urge that the work be placed in the
hands of someone with an eye for col
ors, and if the buildings are so treat
ed the light conditions w’ill be very
much Improved. Xp judgment seems
to have been used*n the past in the
selection of the paint.
“We recommend that all buildings
he prepared lor electric lights, and
that fixtures ^or indirect lighting be
used with Tungsten lamps, and that
all the old-style carbon lamps be
abandoned. We are informed that the
use of Tungsten lamps will not only
pay for themselves, but in addition
will make a considerable reduction in
the current used.”
