THOUSANDS OF DEAD
ON GOR|TZ BATTLEFIELD
Thousand Bodies Heaped In One Spot Show Desperate
Nature Of Fighting Looks Like Italians Would VIM
Germany Prepares To Meet Russian Offensive Through
Rumania Which Latter Is Expected To Grant Permis-
sion For Them To Pass Through

Vienna, Nov. 29.-Heedless of losses,
the Italians are continuing their grim
task of wiping Goritz off the map. To
this end, they have brought forth fresh,
new troops. The attack against the city
is stubborn, the Austrian resistance was
tenacious.
The fortunes of the battle see-saws.
The war office admitted today the Ital-
lans, after uninterrupted attempts in
holding for time the summit north
east of Oslavia in the Goritz section.
Artillery blasts, however, drove them
forth.
Dead bodies litter the territory about
the Goritz bridgehead, the Italian OBJ
jective. One thousand were heaped in
one spot alone; other hundreds mark
the struggle throughout the GOritz re-
gion.
Near Podgora, the Italians admitted
ly gained temporary hold, only to be
hurled back as they were around 'Os-
lavia.
Elsewhere along the Austro-Italian
line, the battle continues, but without
the spectacular tenacity and the ter
rible fatalities and destruction, marking
the Goritz battle.

Looks Like RuInania
Would Join Allies
By ]. w. T. Mason.

(Written for the United Press.)
New York, Nov 29.--The central
powers are beginning to fear that Ru-
mania will join the allies. The Turks
are concentrating in Bulgaria near the
Rumanian boundary and the Austro-
Germans have moved across Hungary
to threaten Rumania 3 flank.
Germans announcement that the
Serbian campaign has closed is probab.
ly due to the necessity for threatening
Rumania. Nevertheless, the subiuga-
tion of southern and western Serbia is
still Incomplete The main Serbian
army is still intact and yet Germany
has abandoned the campaign. 1t is
therefore apparent that the Teutons
believe that Rumnnia 5 entrance into
the combat on the allies side is the
more pressing dancer.
As q result Of the Teuton maneuvers,
the Bulgarians in southern Serbia may
soon find themselves between two fires
with no German help near, but the Ru.
manian peril must be guarded, Ger.

TURKISH SUBMARINE
SETS GOOD EXAMPLE
Makes Heroic Effort to Save
Passengers and Then
Spares the Ship

New ork, Nov. 29--Out of the mass
of stories of Teutonic "frightfulness" "
there loomed today description Of
how Turk submarine apparently with
an Austrian commander, did its best to
save passengers aboard the British
steamer Barulos.
"For Gods sake go back to your
ship" Mrs. Eleanor +. Egan, author,
quoted the commander as shouting to
panic stricken passengers. "We are
not murderers."
His command, however, did not come
until 20 persons had already drowned
in their haste to get off the ship and
not until at least one woman nad gone
stark mad, realizing that her three
babies had perished when she hurled
them oversize.
Mrs. Egan told of sighting the sub,
marine some distance from Crete. The
Barulos had picked up survivors of a
submarine attack. When the subma-
rine appeared, panic broke out and ev-
erybody crowded to the rail-
When the Austrian commander spoke
however, the panic subsided somewhat.
Mrs. Egan paid tribute to the crew of
the Barulos for their heroic efforts to
quiet passengers. Many of the $50 pas.
sengers were rescued by the subma.
rine.
Mrs Egan declared the vessel fired
but one shot and that apparently only
in warning for a halt. The undersea
beet finally disappeared after every
one had been cared for, as far as pos.
sible.

Prepare to Meet Russians.

Uaris, Nov. 29.--Germany is naking
strenuous preparations to resist an ex-
pected Russian attack in the Balkans.
Indications now are that Russia 's next
move will be to rush her big new army
through Rumania to Bulgaria with or
without Rumania Is consent
Press reports however, tend to show
that Rumania is taking more favor
able position toward the entente pow
ers, and there is a growing belief here
that she will allow the Russians to
march through, unmolested. At the same
time, Rumania has told Germany she
will not open the Danube to passage
Of Teuton men and munitions destined
to ConstantinOple.
Germany, however, does not intend to
be thus blocked, and her plans call
for meeting the Russians at the Bulgar
frontier and flanking them in central
and western Rumania.
To do this, she must withdraw con-
siderable force from the bodies now on
the western border Of Serbia. Berlin

Kitchener Tn Paris.

Paris, Nov. 29.--Earl Kitchener ar

around the circle in the near east and
Italy. His presence here is regarded
as disproving earlier rumors that he
had been relieved from his cabinet
post.
After discussing the war situation
with leaders in Paris, he presumably
will return to England. His return

Only the dying down of the wind
saved the entire city from destruction.
Several fire fighters were slightly
