ONLY SECONDARY
DEFENSES SUFFER

London, March 24-The latest au-
thentic information from the Darda-
nelles sets forth positively that only
the secondary defenses OF the straits
have suffered from the bOmbardment
of the allied feet; the other forts in
the narrows are intact. This report
finds confirmation in the present
status of the diplomatic situation in
the Near East, which indicates that
the Balkan states are no nearer in
terventioh in the quarrel than they
were when the battleships of the al
lies first appeared of the Dardanelles
In spite OF The optimistic tope OF
the Greek press It is not generally be
lieved in London that the entente
powers have made any further ad
.ances to the new Greek cabinet
while in Grecian circles there is grow
ing an uneasy feeling that Bulgaria
again may assert her primacy in
Balkan affairs by taking the first step
toward active participation in the
struggle.
The lull along the western battle
front now apparently is being dupli
Gated in the east, where nothing more
than isolated actions are being re
ported.

BOARD OF CONTROL HEARING
POSTPONED UNTIL APRIL

A hearing on the motion to re-
ouire the plaintiffs, Messrs. Knauf,
Buck and Seller, in the case against
the state board of control and others,
to furnish a bond protecting the de-
PENDANTS against damages from the
enforced delays, should the case be
decided against the plaintiffs and for
the defendants, was held before
Judge Coffey at Valley City Monday,
Attorney Buck appearing. for the
plaintiffs and Attorneys Miller and
Ritchie for the defendants.
The matter of the bond, however,
was not decided nor argued, as it
developed that the defendants had
failed to serve an answer or demur-
rer within the thirty days statutory
time, and Attorney Buck therefore
objected to the jurisdiction of the
court at that time. Judge Coffey is-
sued an order allowing ten days ad-
ditional time to show cause why the
plaintiffs should be forced to furnish
bond in the case, which will defer
the hearing to April 2.

Animals Slaughtered for Food In
Final Days Of Prolonged Siege.
Petrograd, March 24.-Half a mill
ion Russian troops, inspired by the
news of the fall OF Przemysl. are
pressing forward in a gigantic for
ward movement all along the Carpa-
thians, according to war Office dis
patches.
From the Dukia pass region to the
borders of Roumania the Slavs are
driving southwark in mighty sweep
toward the plains OF Hungary and
the crown land OF Bukowina.
General Seliwanon's besieging
army Of 10000 men began entering
Przemysl Tuesday. Tentative terms
of surrender were agreed upon at q
conference between General Kus-
manek, Austrian commander of the
fortress city, and Seliwanoff. The war
Office has not made these terms pub
lie, but 1t is certain that General
Kusmanek and the remnants of his
disease ridden garrison will be &C.
corded full honors of war.
Nurses Preced Troops.
Red Cross nurses attached to the Rus.
sian army preceded the victorious
Slavs to Przemysl. Several hospital
units entered the city and began 'ad-
ministering to hundreds OF Austrians.
These. were wounded in the last des-
perate. sorties OF the garrison and
had been tumbled into, houses with
scarcely any medical attention.
The condition of the Austrian de-
tenders was pitiful. Though the gar
risOn had an adequate food supply
until a few weeks ago nearly all the
Austrians were suffering from q lack.
Of heavy clothing. The uniforms were
almost In tatters. All kinds of anil
mails had been slaughtered for food
during the last few days and the
garrison would have faced starvation
within forty-eight hours.
A dispatch to the war oface said
the inner forts of Przemysl had been
partly destroyed by the Austrians be-
fore Kusmanek ran up, the white
flag. The Austrians, however, lacked
sufficient explosives to level the forts
and the damage can be repaired with
in few weeks.
A Russian force Of probably $4,000
| will be left to garrison the city.

PRELIMINARY SPARR|NC IN
BOARD OF CONTROL CASE
Prospect That Case Will Be Carried
to Supreme Court.

Another preliminary move occur
red today in the injunctional pro-
Iceedings brought against the state
board of control.
Monday at Valley City the hearing
occurred in the matter Of request
for Messrs. knauf, Seller and Buck
to furnish bond for the protection
of the board and the contractor in
case the injunction was not made
permanent Attorney Buck, for the
petitioners, argued that the board
lis really out of court, and that no ac-
|tion was pending as the board had
not filed it's answer to the original
complaint in due time, and Attorney
Buck also asked for a Judgment in
default. The court granted an ex-
tension of ten days for the petition
ers to show cause why the board
should not be allowed to answer, and
this showing will be made by Attor-
|ney Buck. The time for the board to
answer the original complaint ex-
pired March 20. If the court should
not grant the board the right to an
|swer there will be no hearing on the
original complaint, which was set for
April 10. In that case the matter
will probably be appealed to the su-
preme court and in the meantime the
injunction will stand.
The board, through it's attorney,
lserved an answer on the petitioners
today which was to the effect that
the board should be allowed to an
swer the original complaint; and this
answer was not accepted but re-
turned as having been made after
the expiration Of the statutory time
limit allowed for answering the
original complaint.
1t appears that the proceedings
have shifted from the attempt to re-
quire the petitioners to execute
bond to an effort on part of the de-
PENDANTS to keep their case in court.
