Crossed Wires
Give a Victory

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
Vienna. Aug. Am accidental
crossing Of telephone wires was re-
sponsible for a recent Austrian vic
tory over the Russians, according to
a story that is current here.
officers at one Of the Austrian staff
headquarters were amazed one day,
on trying to use one Of their telephone
lines, to hear Russian words spoken.
An officer conversant with that tongue
was hastily summoned, and got to the
telephone in time to get the most i'm
portant part Of the message that was
being transmitted.
The chief Of staff Of a Russian di-
vision was trying to talk to a briga-
der. Perhaps because of the crossed
wires, which enabled the Austrians to
hear, the connection was poor and
both had to speak with unusual clear
ness and much repetition. The order
was for two battalions to attack de-
cisively at a given hour a specified
Austrian position, while three COM
panies were to assist by a flank at
tack.
In conclusion the Austrians were
given the novelty Of hearing a Rus
sian major protest against the order.
and demand it's purpose, since, he
complained. it probably would result
in defeat or retreat. The Austrians
knowing precisely what to expect,
merely laid in wait and bagged 1000
prisoners, including the major who
had protested.
