The press Of the capital is vfrtuaiIv
unanimous In declaring the fact that
the British admiralty has not made
public the details Of the sinking OF
the German submarine U-2 81 looks
s.thi gh1y SUSPICIOUS. One newspaper
says that although the British made
their first report regarding the sub
marine on March 26. nothing has
been given out as to the time. place
and manner Of is sinking. The pa.
per believes this probably is became
the methods employed by thesBritish:

series OF remarkable experiences.
which included twenty-three days on

counter with a French cruiser. which
almost resulted in their capture and
persistent and futile efforts to OBJ

VERY BITTER FEELING
For the Carpathian Passes and
Both Sides Are Claiming
Local Successes.
t.y .aaoe,.-vo =, 80,

LONDON, April S.The cabinet hav-
ing failed to come TO decision on
the drink question, no settlement is
expected until parliament meets next
week. The impression is growing
that the government will content IT
self with bringing in measure pro-
hfbiting the sale OF spirits. Even this
step will not be exclusively a govern
ment policy since nothing can be done
without consultation Of other parties.
Opposition to the suppression of the
Use of spirits is In some degree sec
tional, since Scotland consumes pee.
capita three times as much spirits as
England and half again as much as
Ireland
Scottish opposition If solid might
easily cause the defeat Of the meas
ure.
The fight for the Carpathian passes
Is proceeding bitterly. Both sides
claim local successes. The Russians
are lighting their way over four
passes. the Dukla. Lupkow, Uzsok and
Rostock. the last named of which is
In their possession Rostock pass is
not so important as the others but =
branch road leads to the rear of
UZsok pass, which. from the desper
ate nature of the struggle in that vi
cinity. is regarded as the key to the
Hungarian plains. The Austrians
seem to have only enough men to
hold the Russians In check and evil
dently are unable TO make any effec-
five counter stroke from Bukodina.
Therefore. their hope must again
center in the Germans who may
force back the Russians

The resolution submitted by Commis- sioner A. O. Lane to the effect that the present system of collecting garbage shall remain in force until cold weather sets in will probably be adopted by the city com missioners at the meeting to be held this afternoon at o'clock. Judge Lanes res olution set October 15 as the day the change is to be effective, but 1t is under stood he will be asked to change this to October i.
 In speaking of the matter. Commissioner Weatherly said it might be the better plan to defer making the change until all of the several propositions for the collection of garbage by private concerns had been thoroughly looked into. He stated the commissioners desired to inaugurate a plan that would be permanent and that from the many bids and propositions sub mitted to them for this work it would be the better policy to take sufficient time to investigate the proposed methods
