annihilated aud the trenches were re-
gained.
London, Dec. 1.-The Tribuna as
serts that Austria is attempting to
conclude separate peace, according
to dispatch from Rome to the Ex-
change Telegraph Company. Tele-
graphing from Zurich, the Exchange
Telegraph Companys correspondent
says:
"A semi-official Austrian dispatch
received here says the suburbs OF Co
rizia are in flames and that the evac-
uation of the town by the remaining
civilians is proceeding methodically."
! Austria is in position to conclude
separate peace with Italy without
consulting Germany, as war never
has been declared between Italy and
Germany.
j.. 1t is understood that Austria is
willing to cede much of the territory
originally demanded by Italy. 1t is
figured that she could well afford to
do this for the tremendous advantage
that would be gained by the with
drawal of Italy from the conflict
In the opinion of Austrian and
German military experts, peace with
Italy would mean an end of the war
at an early date, as a large Austrian
army would be released for immedi-
ate action in the Balkans and against
the Russian line in the East.
L.,
Austria to make this coup especially
at this time, because of growing
disappointment in Germany over the
length of the war.
