 The second resolution. presented by Miss Emily Balch of Wellesley Col lege, opposed the transfer of terri tory of one nation to another without the consent Of the inhabitants.

 Dr. Sofia Golinska of Munich and Emily Napieralski of Chicago made speeches in support of the movement for the freedom of the Poles. Ref. erences also were made to the pohti. cal position of Jews and Films in Russia
 The addresses this evening related mainly to the sufgragc question and it's connection with the war Miss Kathleen Courtney of London said women demanded the vote because they believed that righteousness and justice should rule the world thereby showing that they were utterly op. posed to wars.
 Miss Alice Carpenter of New York declared that this was the first time in history that those who suffered most from the horrors of war had dared to protest and that it was the existence of the woman suffrage or. ganizations which enabled them to do SO

 q learn from Tenedos that the allies occupied the town of Gallipoh after heavy fighting. Allied forces disembarAed at Enos, advanced near ly 20 miles and occupied several vil- lages.
 Three British warships bombard ed Turkish positions in the Gulf Of smyrna and it is stated that allied troops also landed in the neighbor hood of smyrna
 Five points on the line between EnOs and Saros were selected by the allies for the decentralization of troops. Another force was landed on the Bulair line. A demonstration by landing party on the plains of Troy led to the capture of 5000 prisoners. Turkish troops continue to arrive"
 The bombardment in the Darda- nelles continues vigorously, says the Daily Photographs Mytilene core spondent under date of W ednesday The allied ships have reached Vry- sey in front of the Chanak forts. eight miles up the strait

 THIS POINT.

indications Are That the Hardest Struggle of the War Is Being Made
 to Take What Had Been Consid-
 cred an Almost Impregnable Fort.

London, April 29.--ll:3O D. m-- Win the battle in Flanders seem ingly at an end except for the att tachs which the allies are making to recover the rest of the ground which they lost last week, the interest of the public has turned to the Darda- neles, where French and British forces have been landed, and with the co-operataion of the fleet arg making attempts to force the straits and dpen the way Co Constantinople
 How far these operations have pro gressed only those on the spot ana the highest authorities at home know. The British nave landed at three points on the Gallip0H benin sula, and have thrown a line across the outer point of the peninsula. Other British troops are threatening the Bulair line of forts and the French are looking after the Turks on the Asiatjc side of the straits.
 The Turks report that all the land ing parties have been repuIsed but the British reports, which are very brief. content themselves with the statement that progress is being made and ignore entirely the Turkish ciaim4 Q .iptories
 Along the western front in France there is mach activity but no big bat tie is in progress, although there are reports that the British have begun an offensive in the neighboihood Of Armentieres.
 The Germans apparenuy do not con template a movement in force on the western end of the line, as they re opened today the Belgian-Dutch iron tier, which is always closed when the Germans are on the move.
 Heavy fighting continues in the Carpathiaas for Uzsok pass and in the direction of Stry, where the Aus trians are threatening the Russian communications. The report comes from Berlin that the Ausirians have again invaded Bessarabia, but there is no continuation of this in the Austrian official statement received tonight;
 Russians on their part again have taken the offensive against the Turk. ish invaders of Persia and have driven them from the border town of Kotur.
 Dispatches from neutral countries retort that great concentration of Austrian troops is taking place on the Italian frontier as a measure against the possibility of Italy joining the allies, and that troops are being con veyed by sea to every coast town in Dalmatia and lstria.

New Haven and Hartford railroad, violated the sherman anti trHst law.
 The demurrer in the case of Edwin D. Robbins, director and former general counsel of the New Haven was sustained because the court held that the circumstances did not show that he ever meant to claim consti- tutonal privilege
 The pleas of Elton and skinner were based on the fact that they tes. tified before the Interstate Commerce Commission. Robbins sought i'm. munity because he had been a wit ness before the grand jury as well as the Interstate Commerce Commits sion.

brands of weather which has en-
veloped Columbia today. accom-
panied by biting March wind, which
drove pedestrians into overcoats and
broke up the wearing, temporarily,
of spring attire. An inclination to
rain gave way shortly after the noon
hour to a suddenly violent sleet
storm. however, melting as fast as 1t
fell. After a lull of about an hour
large flakes of snow began to fall
and this continued several minutes,
but the snow did not linger, melting
as fast as it struck the earth.
This is unusual weather for Co.
lumbia on March 80 and many agreed
with the statement of United States
Senator B. R. Tillman that this was
the most "atrocious" March from a
weather standpoint they have ever
seen.
The severity of the weather is
causing uneasiness on account of the
trucking and fruit. Many trees are
in bloom and a freeze would mean
no fruit this year in South Caro-
lima.
