American correspondent, who has Just
come from the Dardanelles front to
Vienna.
One Of the principal batteries had for
three of its large calibre guns Just four
armor-piercing shells each when night
ended the tremendous effort OF the Brit
ish and French fleet. For the fourth gun
i've shells were left. making for the en-
tire battery n total Of IL projectiles of the
sort which the aggressors had to fear.
The battery in question was the one
which had to be given the widest berth
by the allied fleet.
During the evening of March is the
correspondent talked to several artillery
officers from the battery In question.
Better pack mp and be ready to quit at
daybreak,' said one of them. They are
sure to get in tomorrow.

them think that there is no end to our
supply OIL ammunition, But It can't be
done II they go about their work in real
earnest With our heavy pieces useless
they can reduce the batteries on the
other shore without trouble The case
looks hopeless You had better take my
advice"
The correspondent arose early next
morning and packed his few belongings,
keeping meanwhile an eye on the tower
of kale Sultanie, where the flag showing
that the allied fleet was n ear was usually
hoisted. But the morning hours passed
and still the danger signal did not ap-
pear.
The allied fleet evidently was not in
clined to risk more such losses as those
of the previous day, when the Bouvet
Irresistible and Ocean went down and
five other ships were badly damaged.
And yet even with the II remaining ships
II appears from the Turkish admissions
that the Dardaneles could have been
forced on March 10.
This was realized in the Turkish capl-
tai. The court made arrangements for
Its transfer to Eskishehir, Anatolia, and
the German and Austro- Hungarian Em-
bassies also were ready to go to this
ancient seat of the Ottoman Government
In short, everybody understood that

 Though Team Was Beaten.

Princeton, N. J.. Nov. 15.-"Big Bilr' Edwards, former Princeton gridiron star, when asked his opin. ion on the catastrophe which occurr- ed in the Yale bowl Saturday, said that he regarded it as a victory for Coach Rush and defeat for the Princeton team. He said that the coaching of the team was all that could be expected of any man in one year and that the miserable fumbliny was entirely the fault of the players themselves, He has a firm belief in Princetons future under the Rush regime. f
 While every one who has the Tigers welfare at heart is more or less dejected, there is universal con- fdence in Rush. It is believed that the setback experienced by the Princeton eleven in the Harvard con- test a week ago Saturday so took the team off it's feet that the inter- vening week did not afford it time to hit its stride again Most of the players arrived in town this morn ing.
