Main Object of the Thrust Commenced Month Ago Against Russian Lines in Western Galicia is Fin ally Achieved
RUSSIANS
 FURTHER BACK
Will Now Try to Dispose of Them So Effectuaily May Be Atlc to With draw Part of Forces to Fight Elsewhere
[AssocIArEp PRESS p1sPArcHl

LONDON. June 3-With the cap- ture of PrzemysI. which occurred at an early hour this morning. the Aus tro-German armies achieved the main object of the great thrust they com menced against the Russian lines in western Galicia just one month ago today. They have yet to drive the Russians further back and establish themselves in easily defended positions which will enable them to detach forces for operations against Italy and the allies in the west.
 Whether or not they have accom- plished this, the Teutonic allies have wen a great victory and with a sud denness which overshadoWed all past opera tions of the war. It was only ten weeks ago that Przemysl fell tc the Russians after six months of in vestment which was interrupted a short time in November by the Aus trian advance It is not expected the victors will be satisfied with the gain of PrzemNsl, but doubtless will en- deavor to push on to Lembery and even further and put the Russians in such a position that they will not be able to resume the offensive for many months.
 Meanwhile the French report they are progressing slowly north of Arras and the British have become more ac- tive in the region of Ypres and La bassee, while the Italians continue to report the capture of important posi- tions along the frontier. In the lat ter region, however. no news has yet been received of any big battle
 With the first surrender of Przemysl there fell into Russian hands accord ing to official reports. 10000 Aus trians, 500 guns and an immense amount of war material Most of the forts. however, had been completely destroyed by the Austrians before they and this is considerd in circles here to account for the fact that the fortress succumbed so quickly to the Austro German at tack
 When the Russians captured Prze- mysl they were pressing the Austrians across the Carpathian passes Then on May 3 came the news of a great AuStro- German thrust into Galicia slowly but surely and ac- companied by thousand guns. the Teutons compelled the Russians to fall back until the Russian line ran to the right bank of the River San

 Gilbert Montague presented a brief in behalf of the Merchants Association of New York City, urging commercial attaches of the department of com merce to investigate methods Of pro- duction and distribution which contrib uted success to the manufacturers of other countries. The export associa- tiOns and banking connections dis cussed and it was recommended a pro- vision be made for lower rate of post age to foreign countries and an exten- sion of the parcel post.
 Henry Davison. member of the bank ing firm of J. P. Morgan and company, said today in testifying before the trade commission that he believed the funda- mental requirements of developing the export trade of the United States would be increased by shipping pacilities.
 Mr Davison said with proper ship ping facilities other things such as fi- nancng and selling would follow in se- Quence. Then he continued in part as follows:

ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHI

UDINE, Italy, June 3.-Austrian troops made repeated efforts to dis lodge the Italian forces which sue ceeded in establishing themselves on Montero Ridge. across the Isonzu river. and along the front north of the Gulf of Trieste. According to advices received today, the Italians are still IT possession of the ridge The advance of the Italians across the Isonzo has been accomplished in the face of unusual difficulties. In consequence of the heavy rains. it is for attachments of cavalry
 Once the troops reached the fur ther bank of the river, still greater difficulties were encountered. The rain transformed the mountain paths into beds of swift running streams. Water pouring down the mountain sides uprooted trees and obstructed progress at every turn. The few mountain bridges left by Austrians Were carried away by the floods. Rest for the troops was impossible. as the rocky mountains sides were loo exposed, while the valleys. knee deep in water. were unsuitable for camping places. Thick fog hung over the whole region, making it impOs- sIble to see any great distance.
 Progress was slow. but the invad- CTS made their way up the noun tain side. taking with them heavy artillery. ammunition and transports with supplies. They occupied Drez- enaca, Cosec Karfeit and other small

MONTANA EXHIBIT TO BE
KEPT AT SAN DIEGO FAlF

Helena, Dec. 28.-The Montana ex-
hibit at the San Diego exposition will
be maintained during the coming year
according to decision made by the
Montana Panama Pacific exposition
commission at meeting held here to-
day.
At the meeting it was disclosed that
former Senator w. A. Clark had
agreed to subscribe $4,000 to the fund
necessary to maintain the exhibit 1t
is estimated by the commission that
it will require $4,000 to install, move
and keep up the display during the
year.
So confident is the commission of
securing the remainder of the money
that it wired Frank Hazelbaker to get
the building in shape and to arrange
the exhibit
While the Montana building at San
Diego, which was built by Senator
Clark, and which secured second
prize at the exposition, will not be
closed during the next month, the
Montana exhibit will not be installed
until the latter part of January. A
number of repairs must be made be-
tween now and that date.
AS a method to secure the balance
of the money needed, the commission
has decided to appeal to the CONNER
cial clubs for donation of $50 each.
There remains to be raised only a
little over $1,1OO and there is not the
slightest doubt but that the % clubs
in Montana will be willing to sub
scribe that amount.

Bell Telephone Company
Buys City Hello Line
| al Concern Sells to Mountain States---New
Company Plans improvements
Stipulation Not Stated

Telegraph company is known to be
among the most active of the states
many boosting organizations. They
will try to merit the good will of the
people by giving them a better serv
ice than they ever had before.
They have planned to spend many
| thousands of dollars in rebuilding the
local plant, which will eventually be
model of it's kind. At the present
time there is an average of 1000 calls
made per day, including both local
and long distance pegs. There are
but two public pay stations in the city,
one in the Hotel Jordan writing room
and the other in the local phone Of
fee. For the time being, at least, the
office of the new concern will be To-
Gated in the electric company's build
ing on Merrill avenue opposite Bell
street. The local phone company con-
meets with the Moore Telephone COM
pany at Burns and also with the Pio-
nee Telephone company of Circle and
Lindsay. >..
The eastern terminus of the Noun
tain States company is at present at
Beach, N. D., and the line extends
westward to Wallace, Idaho, where it
is taken up by the Pacific Tel & Tel.
Co., another subsidiary company of
the Bell system. The territory COW
cred by the Mountain States company
reaches from Canada to Mexico,
through seven states including Texas,
being one-fifth of the entire United
States.
The company plans to spend $780,
900 in the northwest within the COM
ing year on new construction work
and new toll lines connecting hun
dreds of inland towns not now reach
ed by phone. They expect to eventu-
ally have a transcontinental line
reaching from coast to coast, and by
the installation of receivers, costing
$4,000 each, at Glendive, st. Paul and
Pittsburgh, enable a person to speak
from Glendive or any other western
city direct to New York City and
other Atlantic coast points.
On November 1st, the same concern
purchased the telephone plant at
Terry from the Wright Telephone
System, and since that time it has
been made a part of the Northern d.
vision of the line.
