ROME, May 17.-Rome was tense
with excitement today. An uncon-
firmed rumor said that an Austrian
battalion has crossed the italian from
tier. The war office had no confrma-
tion Of the report. Premier Salandra
is reported to have summoned the
cabinet into an immediate session.
A band of Austrian raiders who
crossed the Italian frontier we're re-
pulsed by a bayOnet charge by Ital-
ian patrols, according TO dispatches
reaching here today
A Rome newspaper today published
a dispatch from its correspondent
near the frontier who said he had
rumors of disorders at Trieste. The
report was not verified from other
sources.
A mob of women, the correspondent
wired. we're reported to have assem-
bled near the palace Of the governor,
protesting because their husbands had
been called to the colors, presumably
to fight against Italy.
The military, the correspondent re-
ported charged the mob. killing AZ
women and wounding 300.
Until an early hour, a crowd esti-
mated at 100000, surged about the
royal palace, the war and foreign
Offices apd the residence of Premier
Salandra, cheering wildly for war.
The official announcement that King
Victor Emmanuel has refused TO ac-
cept the resignation of the Salandra
cabinet was everywhere interpreted
to mean that the King has sanctioned
the war program.

not been promulgated. In government
circles today it was stated that the

cabinet had saved the situation by
quelling disorders and it is now pos
sible that the chamber will not cen

Neutralist party leaders today as
serted that the retention of the Salan.

hope that Austria will make further
concessions that will bring peace al
