Italy Demands Strict
Guard Against U-BOatS

Rome, Nov. 1.-THE sinking of the
steamer Bosnia, following closely the
destruction OF the Ancona and the
Flrenze, has resulted in determined
agitation for the adoption In the Medi-
terranean OF measures similar to those
which have checked submarines In the
North Sea.
Careful search Is being made for the
missing boats of the Firenze and Bos.
MIA, but there Is no longer hope Of
finding additional survivors OF the An
coma. Latest official reports give the
number saved as 800 out OF total OF
507 aboard the Ancona. Most OF the
victims were steerage passengers, Of
whom only ffty-seyen were saved.
II IL also reported that supply sta
tionq for submarines which Hy the Aus
trian flag have been established along
the Greek coast. A protent was made
several weeks ago by the Italian Consul
at Patras on the ground that the neu-
trslity Of Greece was being violated.

trenches. Days and sometimes weeks
pass without the French trenches be-

has suffered. At fret the town hall
and cathedral were German targets.
They stood on low mill In the centre

outlines still remained, but on June
26, in the supreme frenzy which that
day seized the German reason, those
two famous examples Of medieval
architecture disappeared.

shelters the fragments Of the high al

fred that day fell on the central hill
