Paris, Oct. 25.-The Italian cavalry
from southern Albania formed juno
ton yesterday with cavalry and artil-
slery of entente forces on the Macedon-
Ian front yesterday. the war office
announced today.
The Italian forces occupied the AL
banian seaport of Rvlona before Italy
entered the war against Austria. No
further operations Of consequence were
undertaken by the Italians for some
time but In the last few months there
have been occasional reports that rein
forcements were being sent to Albania
and that Italian detachments were
pushing their way eastward. Southern
Albania is regarded by Greece as with
in Its sphere Of influence and towns in
this region have been under control
Of Greek officers. The Greek represen-
tatives were required to withdraw from
towns taken overly the Italians.
There has been no accurate informa-
ton heretofore as to the extent OF the
italian advances. but there is now evi-
dence that this movement has been
carried forward more rapidly than pre-
,vious advices had indicated. The en-
tente allies now have an unbroken
front across the Balkan peninsula from
the Aegean sea, at the mouth Of the
Struma river. to the Adriatic at Av-
Iona, q distance Of $50 miles.

At the state department gratifica-
ton was expressed over the partial
concession.
81 The state department last evening
issued the announcement. in which II
quotes the British note as saying:
THE British authorities regard as
most important the provision that the
goods must have been shipped on a
thru bill Of lading for land and sea
carriage. or under direct ocean bill, be-
fore Aug. 81. and they must insist upon
its fulflllment."
st was at first announced as a con-
cession to American tobacco interests
that tobacco bought and paid for prior
to Aug. and shipped prior to Aug. 81
would be allowed to go forward free OF
restrictions referred to-" the announce
ment says. 1T was found at once that
this concession was inadequate to re-
lieve the hardships brought upon the
tobacco interests by the sudden impo-
sition of the restrictions named, and
the department of state took up the
question with the British government
and has since made every effort possi-
Bile to secure a more favorable rule"

yesterday to answer a charge of mur-

Sheriff Weaver Of Randolph county, IL

his wife and three young children
were burned to death.

that robbery wasi7the motive for the
murder and that the house was burned
to conceal the crime.

Information to this effect is reach

sources. So far nothing tangible
tending to support the story has come

1t is known, however, that many Of

IN DougI AS TO >ADAMson LAW.
Chief ct 6ERtharhood Of Locomotive
e. ineers Z, NaSrtain - 10 Effects. ~,


fNsWsEYork, 25.-Warren S. Stone,
grand chief engineer Of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, and one
of the four. men chiefly responsible
for driving the Adamson law thru con-
gress under threat Of nation wide
tie-up Of the railroads, has made for
NAL admission. over the grand seal of
the brotherhood, to all its officers and
members that~he is mot in position to
give any definite information" about
the Adamson law because we do NOT
know yet just what the law means"
He made this admission in a circular
reproduced herewith addressed to "the
officers and members Of all divisions,
and to the chairmen and secretary
treasurers of all general committees Of
adjustment" The circular was dated
at Cleveland, o., Oct. 10, 1916. 1t was
signed by Mr.. Stone as grand chief en-
gineer, and by assistant grand chiefs
Cadle, Wills, Burgess, Kennedy, Cor
rigan, Griffing and Montgomery.
1--WE are receiving a number Of let
tiers requesting definite information re-
garding the application Of the Adamson
eight hour law says the circular,
"but we are not in position to give any
definite information on this subject,
because we do not know yet just what
the law means. We are, however, from
time to time furnishing the general
chairmen with such information as is
obtainable in the matter"
The day before Mr.. Stone and his
colleagues signed this circular, Charles
z. Hughes discussed the Adamson law
in speech at Newark, N. ]. "Hasty
legislation is likely to carry with 1t un-
welcome surprises, he said. "if eight
hours, is to be q measure or standard
Of days work for the purpose of
reckoning the compensation to be paid,
how are those men left who complete
the prescribed number Of miles in less
than eight hours? Have they any as
surance, if they are to be paid under
this bill on basis Of hours, that they
will be paid on a basis of miles when
they work less than eight hours? And
how will a rigid eight-hour basis, of
pay affect present guarantees? There
Is much food for thought in this lesis-
llation, not only on the part of those
| for whom It. does not provide but also
on the part Of those to whom 1t ex-
pressly refers"
It is apparent from the statement OF
the circular sent out by Mr. Stone and
| his colleagues that they are beginning
to do some Of the thinking about the
lAdamson law which Mr.. Hughes sug-
gested that they do in his Newark
Apeech, And they are finding that the
Ilaw is not as clear as 1t might be. They
are beginning to pay one OF the penal
| ties for haste.
