Austrians Give Kindly
Greetings TO VictorS

Przemysl, March % (via Petrograd
and London, March 2O.-The night
preceding the surrender TO the Rus
slams of the Austrian fortified position
at Przemysl was hideous in the Rus
sian lines with the roar Of guns and
the shock of exploding shells. Never
on this frontier during the war has
there been such n bombardment.
Before dawn scouting division o.
Russians drove back the Austrians who
were in occupation Of the outlying po-
sitions, and after a sharp engagement
occupied the Austrian trenches. Back
ing up this movement the entire Rus
sian army facing the Austrians began
to close in on them. As this advance
was made the Austrians from all sides
retired to the protection of the fort
ress.
Suddenly kilograms began reaching
Russian headquarters from various
points. declaring that the Austrians
were blowing up their forts. At the
same time the Austrian fire slackened.
The Russians continued advancing,
the men running forward among eX-
plOding mines. Occasionally rifle hr-
ing was heard.
Toward 8 o'clock IN the morning OF
March % white flags began appearing
over the tops of the Austrian forts.
The Russian fire thereupon ceased.
Then q group of Austrian officers un-
der a flag of truce appeared, mgaing
its way from one of the forts and
proceeded in the direction Of tie Rus
sian headquarters.
Officers Wea- Arms.
Soon from all directions Austrian
divisions appeared walking quietly to-
ward the Russian ranks. The officers
wore their arms, but the soldiers were
mostly unarmed. Others were OBJ
served throwing away their rifles "a
they came on. These Austrian troops
spoke in friendly and kindly tones 10
the Russian soldiers, and they saluted
the Russian officers.
A notable feature of the advance was
the fact that all of PrZemysl was Gov
cred with heavy clouds Of smoke. Loud
detonatons continued, and IT was eYl-
dent that the Austrians were destroy

KRUPP NAVAL GUNS
POOR, SAYS SCHWAB
Would Bet Hundred to
One on German Army,
Asserts Steel Maker.

Hot Springs. Va. March 21-That
the Krupp is "the poorest naval gun IN
existence" was the assertion of Charles
NJ. Schwab, head of the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation. during a recent con-
versation at White Sulphur Springs.
Battleships have passed beyond the an
tiquated crucible steel gun. Germanys
vessels are the sole possessors of
Krupp weapons.
THE ability to handle machinery by
the individual soldier has occupied the
nosition in warfare once held by
valor." said Mr.. Schwab. France leads
all other powers in developing light
machinery. They evolved the automo-
bile. bicycle and motorcycle. The same
is true of small effective weapons. A
majority of the fighting motor drivers
are Frenchmen. They are born arti-
sans"
In reference TO the navy he said: "A
strong navy il a nations chief defen-
sive asset Germany Is splendldly
equipped upon land, but, as control OF
the seven seas has always been Eng
lands policy, Germany must equal
Great Britain 4 meet 10 Will .NaNiOiio
controlling the seas have ruled the
world in the past, and 1t Will always
be so"
Touching upon the vital advantage
of light field pieces, the steel msgnate
declared there was not rs per cent diff
terence in the field guns of any ma
ton. I regard the French field wea-
mons az most efficient because OF their
lightness. Three and four inch guns
are best.
"Germany's organization is wonder
full. Man for man and officer for Off
GER I'd bet 100 10 l on the German
army, although Russian soldiers have
proved good fighters"
Mr.. Schwab refused 10 comment on
the reported shipments of sectional
submarines by the Bethlehem Company
10 Canada.

u. S. WARSHIP SENT
TO WATCH EITEL
Alabama to Enforce Neu-
trality Should Allies
Fleet Stop Dash.
Iron. The Tribune Bureau !

Washington, March 27.-The battle
ship Alabama, of the reserve feet, was
ordered to Hampton Roads tonight on
neutrality duty, according to an an
nouncement from the Navy Depart
ment. The battleship is at the Phila-
delpha yard.
Additional warships have been in
Structed TO hold themselves in readi-
ness for orders TO augment the "neu-
trality squadron" at Hampton Roads
1T necessary
Secretary Daniels believes the naval
force at Hampton Roads is inaedquate
for the proper patrol Of that area and
lac tonight conferred with Rear Ad-
miral Fisk aid for operations, concern
ing the strength Of the navy inside
the Virginia capes. The admiral stated
that. so far as the navy was concerned,
there was available one destroyer, the
Barney. one submarine that was al
most obsolete, and one revenue cutter.
The Secretary directed that warships
now at Philadelphia be prepared TO
start for the Capes should they be
needed. and ii is expected that orders
for them to proceed to Norfolk will be
issued within the next fOrty-eight
hours. 1t is explained that because of
the presence of belligerent warships
inside and outside OF the harbor
the government prefers to take no
chances" The work of the ships is
not defensive or offensive. but purely
in the nature of patrol to insure neu-
trality.
Although every naval official in
Washington believes the auxiliary
cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich must
eventually intern at Newport News
rather than attempt to run the cor
don of belligerent cruisers scouting
outside the capcs of Virginia, there
is still 2 sufficient element of doubt
regarding Commander Thierichens's S
actions TO give ground for the sus-
piciou that cash TO sea may be at
tempted rithin the next few days. The
time limit set by Rear Admiral Beatty's
board Of survey and indorsed by the
State Department has almost expired.
Within a very short time probably be-
tween now and Tuesday com
mander of the vessel must announce
his intentions to the authorities or the
United States government must step in
and insist upon the ship availing her
self Of the internment privilege as pro-
vided in international treaties
The commander of the Prinz Eitel
Friedrich has been notified by the
Treasury Department that he cannot
be permitted to sail within twenty-four
hours Of the departure from the port
of any merchant vessel of bellgerent
enemy register.

Kingsbury Finds Atypical
Body Permitted Evils
at RandallS.
CHILDREN EXPOSED
TO CONTAGION PERIL
Brutalities Described in Report
Medical Board to Take
Over Duties.

The special medical board for the
department Of atypical children. in
cluding feeble-minded, epileptic and
idiotic children, which declared March
"a that Mrs. Mary G. Dunphy, super
intendent of Randalps Island, now un-
der suspension. was worthy to iill her
place, was ordered abolished yester-
day by Commits 5i1ner John A. Kings
bury of the Department of Charities.
His action was taken upon receipt
Of a report from the General Medical
Board of Randall's Island, which prior
to the appointment Of the atypical
board in 1918 by former Commissioner
Drummond performed the duties of in
vestigating feeble-minded children.
In Mr. Kingsbury's order Of yester-
day he states that the medical board
will he restored at once to its former
duties in charge Of the entire medical
service of Randall's Island.
Many Patients Sighted.
The medical board report to Mr..
Kingsbury asserts that the appoint
ment separated the duties and activi
ties Of the two boards and resulted in
the atypical board being interested al
most entirely in the neurological as
poets of the patients, with no proper
provision for the treatment of the pa
ticnts or the necessary attention for
surgical. medical or infection cases.
Continuing, II states: "The rules for
mulated by the new board provided for
consulting of the old board in surgical,
skin, eve, ear. nose and throat cases.
The relation of tho old to the new
board was purely adj. ory.
"On account OF the extremely rare
exercise of this privilege BY the atypi-
C board. the working Of the two
boards under this ruling of Commits
sioner Drummond has allowed infec-
ito IS. communicable and contagious
diseases to increase very greatly, and
the surgical work among the neurology
patients to diminish very materi
ally.
"The old board has made every ef
fort to cooperate with the atypical
board with view of remedying this
condition, but without success.
"The attention of the superintendent
has been repeatedly called to the in
crease of infectious eases and the need
Of proper segregation and separation
of these cases, but without permanent
results.
Despite the separation of the two
boards tho nortnaI and atvnical chill
dren often mingle in the dining room.
in the wards and on the Fairgrounds
so that infection frequently spreads and
neither board was in exclusive con
troll.
Owing to such commingling a child
with one infections often acquired a
second infectious disease"
The report further states that prior
to the establishing of the board ex-
aminations to detect disease of the eye,
throat, nose, ear and skin were made,
but after its creation this protective
work ceased.
