L'nofficial reports indicate that the relations between
Italy and Austria are becoming more unsettled. A Paris
dispatch says that Germans at resorts in the Italian Rivie-

Germany. is now in doubt, the having been

The opt-rations of the allied flt-ct against the Dar-
(lcnellcs are bring carried on slowly and carefully and a,
French officer is quoted as saying at least another month
will be devoted to the effort to Sllt‘ilt‘t‘ the Turkish forti-
fications. The attack on Smyrna is cilplainccl as designat-
cd to prevent the troops tllcrc from proceeding to 'thc Dar-
(lcncllcs, as well as to cut the comtllunications of tllcgl‘nr—

An official British account of the capture of Ncuvc
Chapcllc gives an idea of the ferocity of thcattack. The
town was laid in ruins. No estimate is given of British los-.

bodies of German soldiers were counted. The British obstet-
