.GALICIAN REFUGEES
TO BE ROUNDED UP
Most of Them Wealthy and
Vicious-Austria to Organ
ize Concentration Camps.

Budapest. April II. The Austro-
Hungarian government has just solved
in drastic fashion the problems arts
ing from the presence of hordes or
Galician refugees scattered over Hun
gary in hundreds of thousands. The
Hungarian government. acting sep
arately. will simply eXpel them from
the country as undesirable aliens. and
the Austrian government will install
them in concentration camps estab-
lshed for the purpose.
Count Tisza. the Hungarian Premier,
recognized that this question was of
grave importance and went to Vienna
a few days ago with this special mat
ter in mind. There can be no question
of sentiment with the Galicians, whose
sojourn in Hungary has raised the
criminal statistics 300 per cent in the
last half year. These people not only
practised cxtortion and forced the
prices Of foodstuffs to an artificial
height, but their frauds and other
crimes against property were so in
Vulnerable and impudent that even the
Jewish population of Hungary applaud
ed the governments decision to expel
them.
Almost without exception, these
Galcians are well-to-do, even rich,
though their exterior would lead one
10 think them bcggars, and they show
no hesitation in accepting beggais s.
doles. State allowances for the refugees
are demanded and accepted by all, al
though their kaftans arc lined with
money. They have formed associa-
tons and have speculatcd in every
thing, piled up -four and vegetables
when the bread famine was almost un-
endurable. and even committed frauds
on both the Austrian and Hungarian
nvcheoYers

the nearest German port If the survey
had progressed far enough to warrant
such action.
Experts estimate that it will take at
least three weeks to put the Wilhelm
in a seaworthy condition and intimate
that il would be foolhardy for her to
nut TO sea in her present condition.
She is leaking badly along her sides,
several shell plates having been loos-
ened while she coaled at sea.
While the raiders engines are not
in the best of condition, they will do IN
a pinch. but the boilers are in bad con-
dition, and practically a new set OF
tubes will have to be placed IN one OF
them.
When asked if he saw any British
warship on Saturday night, Chief En-
gineer Cow, Of the British steamer
Coleby, one of the prisoners on the
Wilhelm, said:
eve certainly did. One chased us
and we heard others. Our escape was

Captain Creighton, commander of the
Coleby, agreed with the story told by
Cow, and said his ship was sent to the
bottom by a shot from the Wilhelm, as
was the British ship lamar.
The captain said he and the other
prisoners were forced TO sign a pledge
that they would not take up arms
against Germany, but A. f. Williamson,
second officer Of the lamar, apparent
ly expressed the attitude of all the
prisoners when he said:
Owe all signed the pledge under du-
ress, and because il was taken under
duress we don't intend to keep it. We

GUNS CAN'T REACH
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Difficult to Raise Low
Angle Fire of Allied
Fleet to Hills.


Chanak Kalessi lDardanellesl
March 10. The first phas- Of the ef-
forts Of the British and French TO
force the Dardaneles demonstrated
that this task is far more difficult than
was supposed. according to Turkish
opinion. The waterway is better de-
Tended than British and French au-
thorities expected. For the last six
DAYS the works giving entrance TO the
inner Dardanelles have not been bonn
barded, and no serious attempt at
mine clearing has been made.
The Allies have succeeded in sllenc-
ing the forts at Kun Kale and Sidd ell
Bahr and two positions of minor i'm
portance near there, but it would be
fallacious to assume that this had les
sened materially the proportions of the
task.
To-day Turkish infantry holds the
ground about the silenced batteries.
All attempts by the Allies to effect a
landing have been fruitless. though they
have been supported by heavy fire
from the British ships, which ventured
so close 10 the shore that even their
machine guns could be brought into
play.
In the main. however, the fire of the
Allies has been rather scattered and
unmethodical, although that OF the
British has been well directed.
For this the batteries of the Turks
are responsible to great extent. Each
day the British discover that the pieces
have been shifted from where they had
been silenced on the previous day.
Thus the Allies are obliged to begin
each day anew a labor they thought
eliminated. Hardly. however, has the
battery position been discovered and
the first shells fired in its direction
than the pieces are again moved.
The Allies are also handicapped by
the fiat trajectory" of their guns,
which are designed to be used against
objects more or less on the level with
the gun itself. The result of this is
that the batteries on the elevation can
not be taken under very effective
fire. The gun used here. on the other
hand, being a high trajectory" piece,
is able TO drop its shells upon the deck
of the vessel--its most vulnerable part.
Realizing this, the Allies began in
direct fire from the Gulf of Saros. The
attempt led to a totally new feature in
naval warfare. While the Queen Eliza
beth, one of England's largest ships,
threw shells over the peninsula, a
Turkish heavy battery also took up in
direct fire and the German gunners OF
the Turkish battery obliged the British
vessel to withdraw in damaged con-
dition.
Kun Kale and Sidd-el-Bahr have
been silenced, but with their elimina-
ton the real problem before the AL
lies has been merely brought nearer,
while the silencing Of the forts near
this town and Kilid Bahr. across the
strait, would mean only that part of
the work had been done.

SKIPPER REFUSES
SEA-AND-AIR RAID

London. April 12.-"Armed with a
rife, Captain Sharp of the British
steamship Serula, which has arrived
here, successfully repulsed an attack
made upon his vessel by large Ger
man hydroplane and snail aeroplane
off the Noordhnder Lightship," says
Reuters Amsterdam correspondent.
"The aeroplane first approached the
ship, dropping bombs, which fell into
the sea. AS it returned to the attack
Captain Sharp fired upon it with a
rife, hitting the machine several times
and damaging one of its wings. Then
the hydroplane took up the attack. but
it also was driven off. Captain Sharp
says he is convinced the aeroplane was
so badly damaged that it was unable
to reach Zeebrugge."

each side would often attempt to steal
a little advantage, sometimes at heavy
cost.
There are still no indications that
the Germans have sent further rein
forcements 10 the Austrians in the
Carpathians, Notwithstanding the fact
that the German forces along the Me
men River, in the north, near the East
Prussian frontier. appear to be weak
ening. For this reason Russian Staff
officers believe that German troops
from the north are being removed to
some other part of the front.

Advance from Cracow Expected.

No signs are evident Of renewed &C
tivity or either side of the Vistula.
The conclusion, accordingly, is drawn
that the German troops will begin q
new offensive movement from some
other quarter. This attack is expected
by the Russian staff from the direction
Of Cracow
According to semi-official informa-
ton, observations made by the Russians
have convinced them that the Germans
rave no intention of developing opera
tions at the present time along the
Warsaw or East Prussian fronts with
view to relieving pressure on the
Austrians. The only alternative would
be a drive from Cracow, and the ap-
pearance of a strong German force in
this vicinity would cause no surprise
here.
Thus far the only aid extended to
the Austrians in the Carpathians APP
pears to be that given by Bavarian
frontier guards, who were removed to
the Austrian front.

Many Prisoners Boys.

Five hundred German prisoners were
marched through Petrograd Saturday
afternoon from the Warsaw railway
terminus to the Nikolai station for dis
patch to the interior. Not a score
looked like drilled soldiers, and most
of them were understood. There were
4 great many boys of sixteen and sew
enteen. Only one was wounded, and he
was carrying his left arm in sling,
with the forefnger in splints. Most Of
the prisoners were without the German
helmet, which seems to fall off with
less cause than any other known pat
tern Of military headgear.
A dozen Austrians marching together
still had their own khaki-covered cof-
feepot shaped headgear, and carried
themselves like trained soldiers. Many
of the men were wearing Russian mill
tary greatcoats and a variety Of Rus
sian caps. Russians in tens of thou
sands crowded the streets on the route.

st. Mary's Avenue Congregational Sun
day school has adopted a novel Christmas
plan. according TO which each class has
agreed to supply at Feast one poor family
on Christmas eve with a tree and the
trimmings.
The names of worthy families have been
supplied by local authorities. The chill
dren are to supply gifts of toys and ap-
parel according to the specific needs of
each family. The women of the church
have offered to supply dinners to go along
with each tree. The men have placed
their automobiles at the services of the
young Santos"
Hitherto the church has spent large
sums on its own children at this season;
this year the children have cheerfully
planned to give instead of receiving. How
ever, there will be. as usual Christmas
party, which will be held Tuesday even
