Russians Fail In carpathians.
 BERLIN, April 16.-The Russian attempt to force the passes in the Carpathian mountains, which are held by the Austrians, has been in vain. They have sent charge after charge upon the Austrian line only to have the troops beaten back with heavy loss. o important is the control of the passes to the Russian plan of campaign that in spite of the tre- mendous loss of life the assaults con- tinue. It is estimated by the German and Austrian officers that the Rus sians have lost fully 30,OOO men in the past three days and have failed to gain any of the passes.
 Endorsements Reach Austrians.
 The German endorsements have reached the passes to aid the Aus trian allies. The heavy snow delay ed them from taking up positions in the mountains and the Russians endeavored to break through the line before their arrival but lost heavily and gained no ground Now that the fresh troops have reached the scene of battle to relieve the garrisons, it is believed that the assaults will be dropped as the enemy will be forced to adopt a new plan of campaign.
