Another big battle has been fought in the Carpathians is chonicled of ficially by both the German and Aus trian war offices.
 The Berlin official Statement, tell ing of this, says:
 The allied troops after bitter fight ing pierced everywhere and crushed the entire Russian front in West Ga liCia, from the Hungarian frontier to the junction of the Dunajec river with the Vistula.
 This is a distance of about sixty miles.
 The operations were carried out in the presence of the Austrian com mander-in chief, Archduke Frederick and under the leadership of the Ger man general Won Mackensen.
 The Austrian official statementA de- seribes the victory in a somewhat diff ferent way, as it announces the re- pulse of the Russians along the front embracing Malastow, which lies to the northwest of Dukla, Gorlice Gr- milk and to the north these places. Simultaneously the AustrianS forced their way across the unajec River but at what point is not stated.
 As the Russians occupied strongly fortified positions in West Galicia, it is beyond question that the losses on
 
 Austro Germans report they captured 500 Russians and took many guns and much war material.
 From the Russian side no word has come regarding their version of the combined Austro- German movement for which preparations have been go- ing on for a considerable time
 The western war zone remains comparatively quiet, only two Ger man attacks being reported, one against the British troops near Ypres and the other against the French in the forest of Le Pretre. Both of these were repulsed. The Dardanelles ope- rations are reported by Athens, on the authority of information from different sources, to be developing favorably for the allies, who are said to have occupied several villages.
 The treatment of the crews of cap tured submarines in England and of British officers imprisoned in Ger many is virtually the same, except that some of the British prisoners are held in solitary confinement Walter Hines Page, the American ambassador in London, has so informed the British foreign office, his information being obtained through an investigation of the prison camps in England and Ger many.

STORY OF SINKING OF
 AMERICAN SHIP GULFLIcHT
Told by Second Officer Paul Bower,
 Now at Plymouth, Eng.

Plymouth, England, May 4, 1855 a. m. The steamer Lyonnesse last night brought from the Scilly Islands to Pen Sanze B members of the crew and the body of Captain Alfred Gunther of the American steamer Gulf1ight, which was torpedoed off the SciIIy Islands last Saturday. The chief officer and chief engineer remain with the vessel. which is anchored in Crow Sound, to look after the interests of the steamers owners.
 In an interview at Pensanze Second Officer Paul Bower of the Gulfight, whose home is Chicago, said:
 When the Gulfight left Port Ar thur we were followed by a warship of some description which kept out of sight but in touch by wireless and warned us not to disclose our position to anyone.
 At noon Saturday we were 25 miles west of Scilly. The weather was hazy but not thick. About two and one half miles ahead I saw a submarine l was on watch and notified the cap tain and chief officer, who also saw the submarine. It remained on the surface for three minutes and then disappeared.
 Twenty five minutes later we were struck by a torpedo On the starboard side and there was tremendous shock.
 '"The submarine had not reappeared on the surface before discharging the torpedo.
 Previous to this we had been met by two patrol boats which accompanied us on either side. The boat on our starboard side was so badly shaken by the explosion that her crew imag- ined that she also had been torpedoed We immediately lowered the boats and left our ship and were quickly taken on board the patrol boats. But the fog increased and we drifted about all night and did not land at Scilly until 11.30 Sunday morning.
 At midnight of Saturday, while still on board the patrol boat, Captain Gunther summoned me I found him in bed and he said he wanted some one to roll cigarette for him. He then threw up his arms and tainted From then until the time of his death, which occurred about 3.3 o'clock Sun day morning, he remained unconscious.
 Captain Gunthers speech was thick and indistinct, bue we could distin- guish that he wished someone to take care of his wife. The crew had al- ways regarded Captain Gunther as a healthy man and had never heard him | complain"

Whole Russian Campaign in the Car

London, May 3, 11.25 p. m.-If the Austro- German contentious relative to the Galician situation are correct, in the opinion of some of the English military writers, it will mean that the whole Russian campaign in the Carpathians is seriously affected, making exeremely precarious the po- sition of the Russian troops pressing down the southern slopes towards the plains of Hungary.
 The line between the Vistula and the Hungarian frontier was about forty miles east of Cracow The Austro- Germans have been refending it stub- bornly ever since the beginning of the Carpathian fighting.

Notaries and justices of the
peace are limited in registering
voters to the precincts in which
they reside, Attorney General
Poindexter says in an opinion
written for James l.. Davis,
county attorney for Yellow
stone county.
The law, which states that it
shall be the duty of the deputy
registrar, notaries and justices
of the peace, being such under
t h e statute, to register a |
electors within his precinct ap-
plying for the registration, has
been disregarded in many places
through a lack of understanding
of its provisions.
The county clerk is authoriz-
ed to register persons only al
his office. Persons residing with
in 10 miles of the county clerk
are supposed to appear at the
office of the county clerk to re-
gister, the only exception to
this rule being where the elect
or is physically unable to get to
the office of the county clerk.
The county clerk of e a C h
county may appoint a deputy
registrar in each precinct of such
county distant more than 1C
miles from the county court
house wherein no justice of the
peace or notary public resides
The opinion states the law in
tends that but one deputy re-
eistrar shall be appointed in
precincts having no justice Of

sident therein.

Havre is Elated
Over Big Gas
Flow
Plaiindealer

Natural gas in any quantity
that may be desired, is t h e
proud possession of Havre. In
the third we'll of the Havre
Natural Gas company, located
on the A. j. Broadwater farm a
mile east of town, the big strike
was made yesterday. At ex-
actly 1:55 p. m. the big vein was
tapped, and conservative
estimates place the flow of the
new well at 100000 f e t
daily. The gas was encounter
ed at a depth of 935 feet, the
dimensions of the bore being
ten inches. Mr.. c.. E. Duffield,
who has had charge of the drill
ing, states it as his opinion that
the new well will prod u c e
twenty million feet of gas per
day. Mr.. Duffield drilled many
wells in the famous Medicine
Hat, Canada, field, and says
that the we'll here exceeds any
in that field.
AS a result of the strike yes
terday, Havre is assured of

d ,mestic use, b u t f or a n y

that may be made upon it.
