Italians Losina Heavily

BERLIN. June 22.-Dispatches from the Italian front report serious re- verses of the Italians in the last four days in their attempt to storm the Austrian line along the Isonzo river. q few miles from the Italian frontier
 The attacks. the reports say were preceded by three days of terrific ar tlllery bombardment The Italians then in thick lines of skirmishers. one behind the other charged re peatedIy up the heights. the summits of which were held by the Austrians, only to be moved down by rifle and machine gun fire. The attacks were repeated six times in two days. each time they are declared to have been repulsed with heavy losses
 The attackers left large numbers of dead between the lines and many wounded could be seen making their way painfully down the rocky and precipitous slopes.
 Austrian women and girls are dis tinguishing themselves by carrying water and food to the army positions, which at some places are at an alti- tude of thirty-siX hundred feet and also by attending the wounded. Eugene Lenhoff. d newspaper cor respondent. telegraphs an account of the Austrian fortifica tions south of the Tyrol front which he was per mitted to visit. The Austrians, he says. not content with entrenching on the surface, have blasted galleries in the interior of the mountain sum mits which end in chambers for the artillery.
 The muzzle of the guns" the cor respondent adds, thus peep through concealed loopholes in the vertical cliffs from positions utterly inaccess- ible to the enemy. The infantry is in positions similarly blasted from the face of the cliffs and virtually inn pregnable.''

ONLY SINGLE VOTE
 AGAINST REPORT
Measure to Be Sent to Act ing Governor This Morn ing - House Prepares Much Other Partly Man utactured Material.

| Arizona has a public land code: ol
 H will have one as soon as House
 Substitute No. l has been signed by Acting Governor osborn It will be transmitted 10 him this morning The last legislative touch was put upon it yesterday afternoon when the house by vote of 30 to l accepted the conference report on the bill The report had been accepted by the senate the evening before
 The concurrence of the h0us.. in the report did not take place without considerable travail and some criti- cism of the senate but it was a fore gone conclusion that the report would be adopted though it was generally supposed that there would be some pronounced opposition shown in the roll call. As matter of fact. there was such opposition bat it was not manifested in the axes and nays
 Inquiry was made concerning the report a little before noon and Chair man Claypool of the public lands committee replied that il would be submitted to the house later in the day. It was the first order of busi- ness in the afternoon session.
 The report was read without com ment until that agreement relating 10 the compromise in conference Of the section of the bill providing for the appointment of appraisers for public lands and Improvements was reached. and it was that agreement. by the way. around which the con flict ragged the most fiercely. though the parr of the report most cordially hated by a large section of the house was that in which was recorded the surrender to the senate in the mat ter of the section relating to the organization of the land department. Very curiously. however. no open ob- jectiOn to that section was offered.
 Replying to some criticism of q senate amendment. MT. Goodwin said that it must be presumed that there was some intelligence and honesty in the senate. That. thought MT. Christy, was a very violent presump- ton but he said that the senate was more adroit than the house as the outcome of the conference plainly showed MT Christy. MT. Johns and Mir Graham led the attack upon the bill which was defended by MT Flanagan, Mir. C1aypooI and MT. Goodwin. the house conferees. None of the opponents. however. seemed willing to assume the responsibility for the defeat of the bill but to the last they were hopeful of securing better terms. They urged that the amendments or agreements be taken up separately Speaker Brooks stated that .a rejection of one of them meant the rejection of the report and as the senate had already adopted the report it was doubtful whether an other conference would be possible.

Property Damage Amount ing to Thousands Report ed from Imperial Valley Following Severe Seismic Disturbances.
FIRE BREAKS OUT
 IN TRAIL OF QUAKE
Plant of Delta Mercantile Company Destroyed and Other Damage Done - Reports of Light Damage Elsewhere.
special to The Republican,

tSDccIdl to me ItepuDllCdnJ Fl. CENTRO, June 23, Wednesday, Property damage amounting to thou sands of dollars was caused by the ser ies of earthquake shocks which visited Fl Centro and other points in the lm- perial Valley last night between eight o'clock and midnight. The store of the Delta Mercantile company here was entirely destroyed by fire and much damage was done to the interior walls of buildings in all parts of the city. No one was injured SO far as can be learn ed at an early hour this morning.
 There were three severe shocks. The first occurred at d few minutes before eight o'clock and sent hundreds of eX- cited citizens into the streets to escape injury. Windows were broken in many parts or town and pictures and bric-a- brac thrown from the walls. Inside of q few minutes fire broke out in the plant Of the Delta Mercantile company, and despite eforts to save it, it was completely destroyed.
 The second shock came at nine o'clock and was fully as severe as the first. The roof Of the Barbara Worth hotel was damaged by falling chinneys and the interior walls were also dam aged. The third shock occurred at 10.30. and was felt throughout the en- tire district. Windows that had es- capped the first two shocks were broken. while hundreds again fled from their beds to the streets. A fourth shock was felt at 1924 this morning Like the others. il consisted of a waVN roll ing motion. like the rocking of boat
 Reports from other parts of the val Icy indicate that early reports Of the damage were exaggerated. Communi- cation is interrupted with Calexico. but aside from a few small fires. it is stat ed no material damage was done As in Fl Centro, the shocks were sufff- cient to shake canned goods from the shelves in stores. and to break win doWs. 4 telephone message from RraWlev fate tonight stated that the damage there had been slight Fl Cen ITO and other towns in the valley were in darkness all night as the result of the earthquake shocks.

FRENCH GAIN AS LEMbERG FIGHT
 STILL GOES ON
Success of French in West and Battle of Lember@ Only Struggles That Can Be Isolated as Distinctive Operations.
fAssocrArep PREss pIsrArcHl

LONDON. June 22.-French gains in the west and the battie Of Lemberg are the only struggles that can be iso- lated as distinctive during the present stage of the warfare. Many uncon- firmed reports have reached London that Lemberg has already fallen to the Austro- Germans and dispatches from Petrograd indicate that the evacuation of the Ga'ician capital by the Russians may he looked for at any time.
 In the Nosges. the Germans have re- tired to the east bank of the Fecht, ac- c0rding to their own admission but they assert all the French attacks were repulsed.
 The fighting around Arras continues to be desperate and, sanguinary, the Germans counter-attacking to offset the recent French gains.
 A wireless dispatch from Berlin says; Neutral reports declare the bat tie raging near Arrak may decide the fate of northern France. The French are very strong. but the Germans are continuously receiving endorsements. The losses on both sides are fearful"
 The house of commons adopted a measure designed to check supplies reaching Germany through neutral states. The bin when it becomes q statute may have a marked effect on American exports. The feature of the new war loan about to be issued in Great Britain enabling the general pub lie to invest at as low as five shillings. bids fair to prove immensely popular as several firms are announcing they will purchase these vouchers for all their workmen as nest egg toward their savings.

Entire Valley Reported in Darkness and COmmuli- cation Interrupted-Dam- age Amounts to Thou sands of Dollars. SEVERAL DEAD
 AT CALEX1CO First Shock Causes Explo- sion Near HOlton Power Plant-]fandsome High School at Brawley Re ported Destroyed.
{ By Associated Press.

(BE Associated Press.
 LOS ANGELES. June ?. Two earth shocks in tie Imperial Valley tonight are reported to have caused several deaths, the burning of buildings, and other dam age which probably will amount to thc.lsands of dollars. The entire valley is i'll darkness and commu- nication is interrupted.
 The first shock, at eight o'clock, was the most se- were. The second came an hour later. Several deaths are reported from Calexico, on the Mexican boundary. Seven fires were also re- ported to have been started at CalcXico, where the shocks are said to have been more severe and more ire quent than at other places.
 The first shock is said to have caused an explosion near the Holton Power Company station at Fl Cen tro. One building was burned to the ground here and other damage was done. The high school at Brawlev, a few miles north of Fl Centro, was destroyed by a shock. The school was one of the finest buildings in the valley.
 Slight shocks were felt at Yuma, but no damage was reported there. Reports from the stricken district are meager and it is diff cult to get information be- cause of the interruption of telephone and telegraphlc communication.
 The first shock lasted about minute. The second continued for forty five seconds. From reports available the shock seemed to center near Calexico. where most of the damage is reported. The earthquake probably did more or less damage throughout the entire valley, af- though there is no means tonight of learning any details from the coun try districts
 Reports late tonight received by the telephone company state that the entire town of Heber, five miles from Fl Centro, was burned as a re- suit of the earthquake. In the city of Imperial the walls of buildings were cracked and one wall fell in. It is now reported that three shocks were felt the last at nine twenty.
 The manager of the Western Union at Ca1exico sent word that several
