LITTLE ITALY EAGER.
Air Of Quiet Confidence in the War

The attitude Of New York's Little
Italy toward the impending entry OF
their home land into the war was one
generally OF quiet waiting and deter
mination yesterday, Large numbers Of
reservists visited the Italian consulate
to offer their services or 10 learn II
they would be called on.
In cafes and other gathering places
the Italian newspapers were read
eagerly. But there was no flag waving
or parading. Italians OF different walks
OF life on being questioned said that
they would GO back to fight for the
"patria" II their ervices were needed.
and none thought there would he any
d%ifnculty In transportation, as all were
confident that the Italian navy can
handle the Austrian fleet successfully
The decision for war was approved
generally by Italians OF all classes. The
better educated said that 1t was the
only decision which Italy could have
made and that all Italians would rally
TO the colors in what they termed the
second war OF liberation. A consider
able number OF Italians in New York
have returned TO Italy In the past few
weeks to be ready for the call to the

fragrant violation Charged.

Austria, by neglecting the obligations
of the treaty, altered the status auo In
the Balkans and created a situation to
her own advantage and detrimental to
her ally's most important interests, Such
a fragrant violation OF the spirit and
letter Of the treaty. besides justifying
Italy's refusal TO Join in a war provoked
without her consent, destroyed the
raison d'etre OF the alliance.
Even the agreement for benevolent
neutrality was compromised by such
n violation since neutrality is impossible
when one ally takes up arms to further
a programme opposed TO tho vital in
tcrests OF tn, other ally when the main
object of the alliance IL TO safeguard
such interests.
"Italy has, however. striven for many
months oward a reestahlishment OF the
friendly relations between the two coun-
tries and hoped that an agreement based
on the satisfaction OF her national as
pirations would remove the existing dis
parity In the reciprocal position of the
two States in the Adriatic. but the nego-
t~iations with this object have failed.
austria now admits ltaly's special in
, terest in Avlona and offers insufncicnt
concessions in the Trent!nO which do not
regulate the situation ethnically. politi-
cally and strategically. Moreover, such
concessions are TO be executed after the
war.
Italy therefore gives up hope OF
reaching an agreement, She withdraws
her proposals n realizes the futility
OF continuing an alliance destined hence.
forward only to hide continual mistrust
Italy now affirms and proclaiins that
she resumes her entire freedom Of action
and declares annulled and void her al
lance with Austria. SoNNINo,"

SHEER WEIGHT OF METAL FORCED
RETREAT OF GREAT RUSSIAN ARMIES

An idea OF tho extent of the retreat
of the Russians before the Austro-Ger-
man drive through the CarpathianS Is
indicated in the accompanying map.
Roughly speaking. twenty days ago the
Russian lines beginning north of Opotow
dropped almost due south. following tho
line OF tho western slope Of the Carpa-
thians. on the Hungarian side to Buko-
uina. Now the Russina line Ia from
thirty TO forty miles 10 the east OF
that point. They were driven from the
three big mountain passes they held.
from the important heights OF tho Bes-
kid Range. from Bartfeld and other
Hungarian points where a foothold had
been obtained. They are now fighting
practically over territory conquered In
the first months OF the war.
