ID ONE, May 24.-Italy's form
IN al declaration Of war was
Yesterday handed to the Austro-
Hungarian minister Of state at
Vienna by the Italian anbassa-
dor, the declaration stating that
a state of war exists from this
(Monday) morning. Baron Won
Macchio, the Austrian ambassa-
dor here, was handed his passport
by the Italian minister of foreign
affairs, while the Italian ambas-
sador at Vienna was recalled.
contenporaneously with the
formal declaration of war and the
issuance of the general order of
mobilization, the first clash came
upon the frontier, with first hon
ors to Italy. The skirmish took
place between Austrian and Ital-
ian regulars at Forcellini di Mon
tozzo, in the pass between Pont
di Legno and Pejo. The Aus
trian patrol crossed the border
and was attacked by a force of
Alpine chasseurs, who drove the
Austrians back and in turn invad-
ed Austria.
HOLDING REFUGEES
Reports received here from
Udine state that Italians on the
Austrian side of the border are
experiencing difficulties in return
ing to their own country for safe
ty. Anxiety is felt for the safety
of a party of six hundred men,
women and children, who are
known to have left Trieste for
Italy.
In Trieste, according to reports
brought to Udine by Italian ref
ugees, a state of panic prevails.
The Austrian residents are terror
stricken and are fleeing north in
thousands, fearing the coming Of
the Italian army. Very many
houses are left abandoned and
some of these have been broken
into and sacked by the police.
The city now is under the con-
troll Of the soldiers and partial or
der has been restored. Italian
refugees from Trieste are arriving
in Udine by the hundreds.
ITALIANS ARE ARRESTED
In Rovigno, Istria, sixty-two
Italians Of prominence, including
the mayor of the city, have been
placed under arrest by the Aus
TRAN troop commander.
At Carmons, on the Austrian
side Of the border, in the Prov
ince of Goritz, one thousand Ital-
ians, mostly women and children,
are concentrated. They are being
prevented from crossing the line
into Italy and safety.
The Austrian feet is concen-
trated at the strong naval base at
Pola, which is being still more
strongly protected by mines.
The Italian feet left Spezia
some weeks ago, under the COM
mand Of the Duke d'Abruzzi. Its
present whereabout are not pub
licly known.

The sound of her voice seemed to

It was no use, however. They had
to cut short the ride. and Kennedy re-

In Godowski's laboratory, where he
was studying tropical diseases, the

for experimental purposes. he drew OF
some blood samples. Then. with the
aid Of his assistant. he took the blood

Godowski had rung the call box has

scowled through at the action-then
moved away.
While his assistant gathered the ap-
