patch says Austrian and German sub.
lects have been advised by their con-
suls to leave Italy in the shortest DOS.
siDle time and that o number of Ger
mans who recently arrived in Italy
are being watched because of a sus.
picion that they are military spies.
There have ben reports for some
days that Germany's efforts to secure
the continued neutrality OF Italy by m.
ducing Austria to cede Trent and other
territory to her were not meeting with
success. Italy, II was said, was de-
manding that the territory be handed
over TO her Immediately but that the
Teutonic allies desired to make the
transfer after the war.
Following this came reports that
Austria had commenced strengthening
her soHhern frontier and according to
a dispatch received in Paris from
Rome, Italian officers of all arms be-
longing to the first line who have been
on half pay have been called to the col
ors. In military circles here this order
is considered significant. it being con-
tended that these officers belong to the
public administration, from which they
would not be called unless the sItua-
ton was serious. No Austrian naws on
the subject is available in London,
but the censor in that country, 1t is
said, has prohibited comments.
There also are reports that Greece
Is preparing to adopt a more active
attitude. Folliwing a series of pro-
longed cabinet meetings at Athens,
the Greek minister of marine is quot.
ed as having said that me Creek gov.
eminent had received all guarantees
and to have indicated that the couB.
try was about to engage In some en-.
terprise.
AS the chief objection to former Pre-
mier Venizelo's policy of helping the
allies against Turkey was declared TO
have been that Greece was not guar
anteed that she would receive ade.
quate compensation, this statement
OF the minister of marine is consid
cred in high circles in London as
an intimation that the new Greek
government now is satisfied with the
allies guarantees.
The allied fleet is preparing for a
renewal of the attack on the Dar.
danelles, delayed by unfavorable
weather. At council of the admirals
aboard the French battleship Suffren
1t is reported that a decision was
reached to make a new general at.
