Paris, Dec. 3o.-Two Austrian TORPEDO
boat destroyers have been sunk as the
result of an encounter with sea forces OF
the allies at point outside of Cattaro

Austrian ships was to lombard Durazzo,
and the allied squadron went out to meet
them with the above result.

ing come out from Cattaro for the
purpose of bombarding Durazzo, GER
tain squadrons of the allies went
forth to give battle. The Austrian

tered a mine and was blown up.

AWAKENED BY SMOKE.
Two Boy Scouts of Waterbury Found
Their Camp Ahre.

Waterbury. Dec. 30.--Two Waterbury
bows. Paul Baclus and Coin Haskins, had
a rather narrow escape last night when
the Congregational church camp N the
hills OF Moretown, on the Duxhury side
Of the W6uooski river, caught fire as they
slept. They were awakened by the
smoke pouring through the structure
and, without waiting 10 dress completely
they attacked the flames, which seemed
10 be pouring through the floor near the
fireplace. They were unsuccessful IN
their fight. and had 10 withdraw. Later
they walked 10 their homes IN this vii
lage. ploughing through the drifts in
their stockingfeet.
The financial loss is not large, but the
destruction Of the building i regretted
by many people because the house FUR
nished a rendezvous for various outing
parties. The building was built by
troop /. boy scouts. under the direction
of Rev. ". L. noicourt, the scoutmaster.
The actual money put into the building
was only sl0O. but the estimate Of the
value Of things destroyed II much more.
ON Tuesday a party Of boy scouts with
Rev. Mr.. Boicourt went o. the camp and
had dinner. Many Of them remained
over night. and the following day two,
Baol,us and Haskins, decided 70 remain
another night They said to-day that
before retiring they took care Of the
roals in the fireplace IN the usual boy
scout manner and thought everything
was al right One theory is that the
Ere caught from 0vcrheating ct some
place about the fireplace.

NEW GERMAN PROPOSALS
Regarding the Lusitania Case Are Ex
pected in Washington.

Washington, ID. c., Dec. 3O.--New pro
posals from Germany for settlement
OF the Lusitania controversy when the
Berlin foreign office hopes will be ac-
ceptable TO the United States, are ex'
pected to be presented to the state de,
partment next week. Ii is understood
that the negotiations between Secretary
Lansing and Count Won Bernstorif, the
German ambassador, recently progressed
TO a point where settlement was ex-
pected at Christmas. 1t is said the Ger
man proposals resulting from these con
yersations probably will arrive soon art
er New Years day.
Information received here indicates
that the Berlin foreign office is anxious
to end the controversy, in spite OF aa-
verse public opinion said to have been
aroused by the American request Tor
withdrawal of the German naval ana
military attaches and the demands upon
Austria Hungary as result of the sink
ing of the Ancona.
The present status OF the negotiations
is very closely guarded. The United
States has contended all along for a
disavowal of the sinking of the Lusitania
and reparation for the American lives
lost. A proposal by Germany to arbi-
trate the question of indemnity was re-
iected. 1t has since been suggested
that Germany might make reparatIon
with the understanding that 1t would
involve no admission of wrongdoing.
1t is understood that no agreement
will satisfy the United States unless it
contains something in the nature OF
disavowal, but Germany contends that
her instruction to submarine comman-
ders to discontinue such attacks as that
on the Lusitania is the most effective
disavowal that could be given.
1t is regarded here as especially signi-
ficant that settlement of the Lusitania
case should become imminent at time
when Teutonic diplomatic circles are rep
resented as being prepared for a diplo-
matte break between the United States
and Austro- Hungary. A clearing up
of the Lusitania case, officials believe,
would have an important bearing on the
controversy now pending with Vienna.
That situation remains unchanged with
out word from Ambassador Penfeld or
any official indication of when Austria's
reply to Secretary Lansing's renewed de-
mands might be expected.

BUT PETROGRAD
REMAINS SILENT
Another Attack Is Being
Made Between the Rivers
Pruth and Dneister-The
French Repulse a German
Attempt to Capture a Gap
in Champagne Region

London. Dec. so.-Although Petrograd
remains silent on the subject, the pubic
Is inclined to believe the Russians are
undertaking a great offensive in buko-
wilma. near the Bessara bian border. Un-
official Austrian reports telling OF at
tacks by dense masses of Russian troops
indicate that an important battle is un-
der way.
The fighting centers at point near
Yoporoutz, small town just within the
border of northern Bukowina, but sim
ultaneous attack is being made on an ex-
tended front reaching from the river
pruth to position north of the Dneister
river. a distance of about so miles. The
latest advices state that the Russian as
sault is being continued, accompanied by
an unusually heavy bombardment.
Unofficial reports from the extreme
northern portion of the eastern front
state that the Germans have made
serious but futile attack in the region OF
Lake Babit while the Russians west OF
Lake Hangar are threatening Mitau.
These opposition attacks create deli
cate situation, as successful advance by
either would endanger considerable forces
of the defeated opponent.
Field Marshal Won Mackensen, who
recently was reported to be directing the
fitting out of a powerful expedition
against the Suez canal, visited Sonia
yesterday, according to advices from
thatscity, returning to headquarters aft
er conferring with the German and Aus
trian ministers and King Ferdinand Of
Bulgaria.
The repulse of a German attempt to
capture French sap in the vicinity of
Dompierre is announced by the Paris war
Office. French artillery FIRE prevents the
Germans from repairing their trenches
in Champagne, which the French guns
had recently broken up.

FOWLS SHRIEKEE
THEIR VALEDICTORY
Over a Successful Exhibition of the YER
mont Poultry Association, Which
Has Been Running Three
Days.

Roosters. cocks and cockerels, ducks
and doves, brakes and hens, even the
unobtrustive little canares, gayest OF all
in their black and yellow plumage, emit
ted each their yaledictory noise at the
Church street gymnasium to-day as the
10th annual exhibit OF the Vermont
Poultry association was drawing to a
close. Success in measure that exceed
ed the most sanguine hopes OF the pro-
moters of the show has marked the three
days exhibit. Breeders have had pre-
sented them an opportunity for seeing
what was probably the finest collection
of domestic birds ever assembled In YER
mont. The attendance to-day was quite
as large as yesterday and it was not
until late afternoon that the directors
felt like giving exhibitors permission to
begin Grating their hens. Birds from
Massachusetts,, Vermont, Maine, New
Hampshire and New York have shared
the triumphs of the 1915 show and a
good deal of work, especially for breed
ers whose poultry farms are located at
distance, is involved in securely crat-
ing the fowls for shipment. BY to-mor-
row, however, the gym. floor Will have
been cleared of coops.
Out of the mass of data accumulated
by the officers it develops that the ex-
hibit has been unique this year for its
displays OF canaries, squads and eggs, II
for no other reason. James Mcintosh OF
Barre generously loaned the ASSOCIATION
the use of his fine cage OF pigeons X. H.
Jones placed at the disposal OF the di-
rectors splendid pen of canaries and
other manifestations of interest and
friendliness were manifested. There
were three excellent egg displays, Mrs,
NJ. f. Preston of Randolph receiving
first awards on white and brown eggs,
while H. J. Holmes & Son OF Charles
town. n. H.. were awarded second ribbon
on their showing of brown eggs.
Additions to yesterdays list Of awards
includes the following; Fifth ribbon on
cock in the Rhode Island Red class, Mi
chael j Hamel of Barre; first, I'd and
4th ribbons on Buff Plymouth Rock cock
erels, Charles oliver; Sd ribbon, Edwin
Keast; 9TH ribbon, William oliver.
1t was John Mckenzie, instead OF VIII
liam Mckenzie, who received a special
award ON color in the female White
WNandotte class. Mr.. Mckenzie exhibit
ed mother bird that was nick named
"The Driven Snow by breeders who
gathered around the prize pen and its
owner WAS warmly complimented by the
Judges for his toilsome care in grooming
the winner. William Emslie, with the
Barred Rocks, was a close runnerup in
race for honors with w. B. Scott and
only few birds separated him from rirst
position. Alderman Keast made deter
mined effort to retain the Buff Rock
championship, but more experienced
breeders wrested the prize away from
him.
