dent that the Germans have not yet
perfected their diabolical invention.
The correspondent Of the "Bourse
Gazette" writing from Warsaw, quotes
from the diary OF a captured German
officer some interesting statements
which show the gas, as at present
used, is a double-edged weapon. Inc
officer wrote:
"When this gas first began to be
used by our army we were assured II
would conquer all our foes without
causing us any losses. II was savage
method, but would bring peace nearer.
As a matter of fact, very different re-
suits followed its use.
81 was myself witness OF case
where half a company, engaged IN NIL
ing the cylinders, were all suhocated.
The second half of the company, was
then put to work, but something burst
and the gas spread all around.
81 was then on the staff and the nor
rible gas reached even us, long way
off from the place where the cylinders
we're. The results, in fact, have been
far from brilliant for US, while as TO
cur foes they were not one whit cowed,
and. tactically. we never gained any
thing much from this gasslng. nave

tify that there has not yet been case

Hasten End of Austria.

Rome, June 2O.-Premier Pachitch Of
Serbia, interviewed by the correspond

future relations between Italy and Ser
bia, is quoted as saying;
Their relations must be most
friendly. Serbia needs Italy, her civ
ilization and her progress, that she
may expand literally, living her lie
according to her national interests. On
the other hand, Italian industries need
the Serbian market. Neither country
has imperialistic ambition. They both
wish TO live and let others live"
Regarding the effect of ltalyS en-
trance into the war, Premier Pachltcn
is said to have declared:
at will hasten the day on which
peace will be definitely signed. The
end of Austria is nearer than any one
