ITALY HALTS Freight
TRAFFIC TO germany
Simultaneous Attacks by Land and
Sea to Herald Entrance Into War
If She Casts Die.

Special Cable 10 The Washington Herald.
London. March "A news agency dis
patch from Rome states that the Italian
government has suspended all railway
traffic for the transportation Of mer-
land.
Rome. March Instantaneous attack
by land and sea will herald Italy's en-
trance into the war if this country finally
casts aside her neutrality and joins the
allies. Part OF the Italian fleet will join
the allies at the Dardanclles. while the,
other warships will operate against the
Austrian naval base at Pola.
ltalys first blow on land will be struck
against tine Austrian forces now on the
Serbian frontier. Her troops will be
landed in Montenegro and Albania. and
proceed overland to the front. The de
pleted Serbian and Montenegrin armies
have been holding the Austrians in check,
the Italian military experts assert.
Travellers who arrived here said that
forty transports and merchant steam
ers are now in the harbor at AnCona
to carry Italian soldiers across the
AdriatIc. There is no likelihood that
Italy will attempt to strike the forti-
fled Austrian line in Trent. This is of
undoubted strength.
Cooperation with the SerVians and
NonteneErinS would be far easier
matter for the italian army. With
enough troops left on the Northern
Italian frontier To hold back any Of
fensive by TeUtonic forces. Italy could
proceed to join in hostilities from the
Balkan districts and thus be in po-
sition to prevent Greece from grasp
ing too much there at the termination
of the war.
While diplomatic pourparlers con-
tinue the belief is becoming general
not be long delayed. 4 number of
steamers have been taken over by the
government TO import coal from
America.
Trieste reports that concentration of
troops on the Austrian littoral is pro-
cecding. Great activity and strenuous
efforts are being made to obtain addi-
tionaI men to fill the gaps in the army
at the front. An order was issued Satur-
day summoning all men up TO - years
capable of serving. These will he drilled
with utmost haste. to he ready to de-
part to the theater of war early in
April.
1t is calculated that in a few days
there will be 1900 men in Trieste. includ-
ing a number Of well-equipped German
troops and artillery.
The national defense law became opera
tive today. and will be applied imme-
diately. Espionage is to be repressed
theoretically. Many Germans and Aus
trians, pu.posely exempted from mill
tary service. have becn sent here to
watch the war preparations. These will
be expelled. The expulsion decree al
ready has been drawn up. This will cX-
peditc the work Of the police greatly.

WILL BUY DACIA'S COTTON.
France Offers to Purchase L.
Ship BEFORE Prize Court.

The State Department was advised
yesterday that the French government
is willing to purchase the cargo of
cotton on boa I'd the former German
steamship Dacia. now before a French
prize court. provided proof is submit
ted that the cotton is owned exclu-
sively by American citizens
1t is expected here that those inter-
ested in the case will have not the slight
est difficulty in establishing this fact TO
the satisfaction OF the French authori-
ties. No reports have yet been received
indicating that the French government
will assent TO the proposal of the own
ers of the Dacia that the vessel be re-
leased on bond. under condition that she
does not engage In trade. with Europe
pending the adjudication OF her case.
The claim by E. Won Novelty. an Aus
trian shipbroker. of New York, to 40
per cent interest in the Dacia has not
been brought to the attention OF the
State Department officially.
