TAKE AUSTR|ANS BY
 FULL SURPRISE
Reoccupation of Valjevo, Which Marked End of Third Austrian Invasion, Was Accomplished With Little Fighting
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPATcHJ

VALJEVO, Serbia, Jan. S1-The Serbian reoccupation of Valievo, which marked the end of the third Austrian invasion of Serbia. was ac- complished without extensive fighting
 in the immediate vicinity of the town. The Austrians, it is true had prepared elaborately for the defense of Valjevo, and their artillery com manded all the usual approaches. But the Serbians presented only a small decoy squad at the main roads, send- ing their principal forces around the hills by footpaths and secret routes to the rear and flank of the Austrian positions.
 They took the AUstrians completely by surprise, after scattering a rear guard of Hungarians quietly by the bayonet. The towns defenders. at tackled from both front and rear, abandoned trenches and fled. Re treat changed to rout when the Ser bians turned on them their own can non from the heights, smelling the Austrian rear guard in Its flight and killing a hundred of them at one shot, as they rounded the top of a hill just outside the town.
 The entry of the Serbian army was not imposing. The men were too much in earnest for much display or hilarity. Some of the old population got out faded flags and hung them aloft in welcome, and there was a | committee of old men representing the municipality to receive the gen. cral and welcome the returning sol diers, but in the main the entry re- sembled the return to bereaved | house after a funeral. The dead lay everywhere, Serbian as well as Aus 1 trian. and as for the wounded-it was many days before they had all been gathered up from the fields and

Special to The Republican

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-A special business session has been set aside by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States for the address of President Wilson. He will speak on the evening of February 3. It is as. sumed the president is taking tLis opportunity to go to the business men of the country because he has message for them.
 The program of the meeting of the National Chamber as announced by Elliot II. Goodwin, it's secretary, is of a character which should prove of vital interest to every business man in America. The times are ex- ceptional and without precedent.
 The first of the three members of the cabinet who are to address the meeting will be the secretary of state The attitude of the adminis tratit T toward American investors in foreign countries and the extent and kind of support which it will render them. is of the highest importance and matter which should be pre- sented clearly to business men. The secretary of state will discuss Ameri- can investments abroad and lay be- fore the delegates the problem as he sees it from the point of view of that department Of the government which directs the foreign policies of the nation.
 The administration has declared it. self in support of the pending mer- chant shipping bill, and the secretary of the treasury will give official ut terance to- the views of the admin istration. So that the delegates may nave both sides of this question pre- sented to them, Senator Burton, of Ohio, will present the views of those who are opposed to the legislation now urged by the administration. The continued close association of the chamber with the department of commerce will be evident in the part

In Carpathian Passes

LONDON, Jan. 31-The Carpathian mountains between the Dukla and Wy szkow passes were the scene of a pitch ed battle between Russians, Austro- Hungarians and Germans for the fourth time since the beginning of the war. In previous battles the Germans were absent.
 Russian reports assert that prelimin- ary fighting resulted in their favor, prisoners and guns being captured. Simultaneously the Austro Germans are concentrating their armies in the mountains between Bukowina and Transylvania to prevent a Russian at tempt to outflank them on the Ruman- ian and Serbian frontiers to check any effort of these countries to take a hand in the fighting upon the result of which much depends.
 The Russians are also pushing their offensive east to Prussia while the Germans continue their attacks on the Russian positions in Central Poland. These operations are secondary to those in the Carpathians which will likely affect future operations of the war.

 The federal reserve banks have now become a part of our national business.

Cold Snap in High Noun = tain Valleys Delays Ex- pected Run-off Yester- day, But Water Continues to Dribble in
OCCASION FOR
 SATISFACTION
McDermith Urges Contin- uatiOn of Present Eco nomical Policy, in Spite of Ample Assured Water Supply for Summer
Especial to The Republican,

ROOSEVELT DAM, Jan. 3l.-Rap- idly falling temperature in the high mountain valleys, whence comes the water for the reservoir, cut down the inflow from the rainstorms of Friday. and at 6 o'clock this evening the elevation of water behind the uam was 171.40. This gives the lake .. content of 613,OOO acre feet.
 Two and a half feet of water poured over the intake dam at 6 o'clock D. m. and the flood showed little sign of decreasing during the night.
 The prediction of an average of about a foot day to the elevation of the reservoir for the next two weeks seems to have been well founded. Not all the water result ing from the storm can be measured at the dam yet, for large part of 1t remains on the watershed in the form of snow and ice. Before the run-off has progressed much further the previous high water mark of 11932 feet will have been passed, and with the prospect of no water or very little being used for irrigation or power purposes before the spring ir- rigation season in March, and with the further prospect of immense quantities of melted snow coming i'll during the breakup in April, It IS almost certain that the coming sea son will find the reservoir better equipped than ever before to take care of the lands in the valley.
 The weir at the place where Tonte creek enters the reservoir was iso- lated today by bad roads and nc figures could be gotten of the amount of water that is coming in from the northwestern portion of the water shed.
 Telephone reports from the fores' stations high in the mountains to the north and east indicate that the snowfall records received yesterday and the day before will be confirmed when the weather bureau measuring scales are inspected

PANAMA, Jan 31-Tolls collected from ships that passed through the PaDama canal during December, 1914, aggregated $411,S95.44, an increase of Der, the previous high month. The total amount of tolls collected to January 1 was $1.547,100.45. Each of the first five months of canal traffic showed a substantial gain over the month previous. but since the first of this year there has been a slight falling off in traffice, and January probably will show a decrease over inc record month of December.

OSBORN SAYS
 CERTAIN LAWS NEED|NGCHANGE
Report of the Secretary of State Shows Cost of hi tiative, and Suggests the
 Amendment of Statutes Governor Commutes Many

Amendment of the election laws to prevent fraud, reduction of fees charged by the state for public ser vice, and the general distribution of Lew laws in printed form to the peo pie of the state are recommended by Secretary of State Sidney P. Os born, whose annual report to the governor was completed and signed late Saturday.
 Under the existing law providing for signatures to petitions for initi ated or referred measures, Secretary Osborn states that it is impossible tc ascertain whether or not the sign CTS are qualified electors or have any right to sign the petition. Because of this, fraud could be easily prac- ticed. and if practiced would be prac- tically impossible to detect Any qualified voter has the right to sign an initiative, referendum or recall petition, and as the statutes do not require registration in order that a person may be a qualified elector it is impossible to check the signatures to petitions.
 That the charges prescribed by law for the copying of laws and per forming other services is entirely too high and in some cases eXhorbitant, is the statement of the secretary of state, who would reduce the fees so as to cover the actual cost and noth ing more. Excessive fees, the report says, result in a loss of revenue to the state. because they prevent a large number from obtaining copies of the laws who would otherwise do so.
 Newly enacted laws, the report recommends, should be printed for general distribution and would be of great practical benefit.
 Initiated Measures
 That the initiated measures were expensive as well as numerous at the last election and bid fair to become even more so is shown in the report. In 1912 the publicity pamphlet con- tained only thirtq- seven pages and
