ITALY PROTESTS
AGAINST AUSTRIAN
MINES IN ADRIATIC
"Recklessly Strewed' They
Menace Italian Shipping.
Open Break May Follow
Austria Refusal.
ROME Sent %

ROME. Sept. 90
Italy took today what is generally ac-
cepted as the first step leading to an
open break with Austria. The Italian
Ambassador at Vienna, Duke d'Avarna,
was instructed formally to nle a most
energetic protest against the strewing Of
mines by Austria in the Adriatic. He
was directed 10 demand that the Aus
trian Government Immediately d!scon-
tinus this practice.
Some Of the mines have dritted 10 the
shore OF Italy and constitute a constant
menace 10 shipping from italian ports
As a result. the Admiralty announced
today that navigation in the Adriatic Is
indefinitely suspended
Inasmuch as the mines are the only
thing which has permitted the Austrian
feet to remain within the protection Of
the Pola fortlAcaticns, It Is not believed
here that Austria will agree to stop
planting them. italy will then be com
PEELED to enforce her decree by her army
and navy.
In the official statement sent to Vienna.
It is pointed out that many italian Ash
ing vessels have fallen victims 10 the
mines. II is stated that hundreds
already have been picked up, that many
others have Hoated ashore on Italian
territory and that tho fishing craft are
ir grave danger every time they put out
10 stretch their nets.
The instructions sent 10 the Duke
d'Ayarna sneak OF the Austrian mine
sowing as RECKLESS" Unless a salts
factory reply IS returned it IS expected
that Italy will send an uItimatum to
Austria.

already carried troops over the 60 miles

,tal Of Albania, which have been cur
rent in Rome for the last two days, have

Frontiers-Some Possible
Changes.
LONDON. Sent. 20.

LONDON, sept. ~.
Austin West correspondent of the
Daily Chronicle. in discussing possible
changes of frontiers when the war is
over. has the following to say under a
Milan date line:
LAS for likely changes in the map of
the world at the end of the war, / think
It probable that Great Britain will take
over the German colonies, giving Spain
and Portugal share therein, as a re-
ward for their neutrality.
Russia will limit her demands to
Galicia, at the same time settling guar
antees for the entire independence of the
four Balkan States. Since Russia has
no interest in the Adriatic problem, and,
moreover, cherishes a warm friendship
with Italy, she will not offer opposition
to an Italian protectorate over Albania.
In addition there will be a rectihcation of
Italy's northern frontiers on national
racial basis.
"I think France will resume possession
of Alasce-Lorraine and the Palatnate
while Austria will remain a German
State and form part Of the Germanic
confederation.
"This will raise the question whether
the German Emperor shall be merely
King of Prussia or also King of Austria
It seems to me quite unlikely that the
United States will intervene, and If
Sweden should assert herself on behalf
of Germany she would find her action
ncutraliZed by that OF Norway and Den

How a former schoolmaster. now In

that air1nen are the kings of modern

MILE IN AIR, AVIATOR SAW
WOODS SHOT TO RIBBONS
Member Of British Corps Describes
Engagement of Great Battle.
LONDON. Sept. z


A letter from an officer of the Royal
Flying Corps, under date of September
4, describing n view from an aeroplan5
of the battle eastward of Paris, says:
Yesterday l was up for reconnais
sance over this huge battle. 1 bet It
will be remembered as the biggest in
history. 1t extends from Compeigne
right away to Bclfort.
I'VE few at 5 o'clock in the evening
At that time tho British guns all opened
fire together. From a height of 5000 feet
! saw sight which hope 1t Will never
be my lot to see again. The woods and
hills were literally cut to ribbons all
along the south of Laon. 1t was mar
velous, Watching hundreds of shells
bursting below one to the right and to
the left for miles. and then to see the
German guns replying.
81 fear there will be lot more awfnl
fighting before this show ends, but we
are certain 1t will end with us on top,
although we all had our doubts about
three weeks ago during that awful re-
treat"
Writing again on September 49, the
officer says:
"The huge battle still is going on Our
machines after being out all day still
bring in the same news. The Germans
have got into one of the strongest posi-
tions possible. Fortunately, reinforce
ments are arriving and are coming up
on the German right at scissors.
II simply crave for cigarettes. They
need to be carefully disguised though
or they will be stolen en- route"
The officer mentioned that the aero
planes are shot at and shelled by friend
and foe every time they ascend. They
hardly ever descend without bullet holes
all over the planes, but fortunately, the
writer says. the flying corps lost only
one pilot and a passenger up to Sep
