PARIS, July 13-The Germans are making des perate efforts to capture Verdun, The fighting around this fortress has been becoming of increasing violence of late, and the Teuton attacks con tinuing night and day. The swarms of gray clad soldiers that stormng the French trenches see" to be endless and despite the heavy losses the invad suffering there is lessenng in the strength of the attacks
 The French have heavily re-enforced the troops in this vicinity, and trains of wounded which are being brought back daily give mournful evidence of the severity of the fighting, The attacks to concentrate in the Woevre district, probably with the intention of gaining certain heights that would bring the forts within range of the German batteries and afford ideal positions for hostile artillery If these heights could be taken the German shells would be accessible to the citadel, and great damage could be done to the city itself. The French realize the importance of the situation and are using every Ieffort to stem the German tide.

ROUMAN|A BE NEUTRAL AUSTRIA WILL CONCEOE
 TERRITORY IN DISPUTE. !.

LONDON, July 13.-Germany and Austria are using every diplomatic resource available to per suade Roumania to throw her lot with the Teutons, or to at least remain neutral The people of Ron mania are in sympathy with the allies and the government fears that it cannot resist popular pressure. The Austro- Germans have offered Ron mania territorial concessions to keep out of the fray The extent of this land compensation is not known Roumania wants the whole of Pennsylvania, and would like Bukowna thrown in. Whether Austria cares to sacrifice so much of her territory is extremely doubtful, and hardly probable. The allies, of course would be willing to give Roumania almost anything she asked for in respect to new territory if she will throw her lot with them Italy has considerable influence in Roumania, and the Italian diplomats here will endeavor to swing Rou- mania to the allies The situation is interesting and fraught with dangerous possibilities to both sides as the arpy is finely equipped and in splendid condition tOtalling one million men.

COAL STRIKERS CRIMINAL ENGLAND TAXES ACTION
 UNDER MUNITIONS ACT

LONDON, July 13--The British government has at last decided to take official cognzance of the strike among the coal miners in South Wales. The srtike is threatening to seriously interfere with the coal supply necessary for the warshps and army transports.

The outcome is of interest to the labor leaders, who may resist the government.

INSANITY EXPERT SAYS THAW IS
 PARANO|AC

NEW YORK, July 13.-The trial of Harry K Thaw to determine his sanity is progressing before a jury here and is attracting large crowds daily. Thaw is in the court room at all times with his mother sitting close at hand and they hold frequent confer ences with each other and with their attorneys. Thaw's wife has so far not appeared in court, although she is in the city in response to a subpoena which has been served upon her
 Most of the time of the court is being taken up by the insanity experts placed on the stand by the govern ment. The attorneys for the defense go into long technical cross examina- tions, which hold little of interest for the spectators, most of whom are women. Today the entire time of the jury was consumed in listening to Dr. Austrin Flint, one of the most famous mental therapeutists in the country, who testified that Thaw was a pure paranoiac. The testimony of Flint was listened to with the greatest attention by the jurors. This is the most damaging evidence so far intro duced by the state as Flint holds an enviable place in his profession, and is above the standard of the usual ex pert witness. Flint Is still under cross examination by Thaws' attorneys.
