Austro German Forces Evacuate Czernowitz, Says
 News Agency Report.
RESULT TO AFFECT
 BALKAN SITUATION
Russians Capture Large Number of Prisoners. Among Them Many Ger mans-COntinue on Offensive Ev.
 anywhere in Eastern Area.

London, Jan. 4.-The Austro-Ger-i man forces have evacuated CzernO- witz, the capital of Bukowina, accord- ing to Reuter- Petrograd dispatch. The report adds that a large number of prisoners have been taken, end that these include many Germans
 The Russian official reports up to date, however, do not confirm the evacuation of Czernowitz, although they do mention the capture of line of trenches northwest of the city.
 It is around the Bukowina strong hold that the great lighting of the southern Galician campaign has been waged ever since the new Russian drive began. If the reported capture of Czernowitz is true, 1t means that General Ivanoff has. won . battle that will materially affect the Balkan Greece campaign.
 The fighting along tho Galleien- 1 Bessarabian line is bsing coadpcted in bitter cold weather and amidst tho snow filled valleys of the mOuntainA east of the river Pruths.
 notwithstanding tlls climatic stress, and the large forces cpposlng them everywhere in the strypes and volhynian districts of Rnssia and in east Galicia, the Russians are on the offensiyt.

Situation Caused by Sinking of Persia Grave in
 Possibilities
BELIEVED NOW THAT
 U. $. CONSUL DEAD
Administration will Await Complete Information Before Deciding Upon Course M Be Pursued To-
 ward Nation Responsible

Washington, Jan. 4.-Tne Washing ton administration will await full de- tails before acting in the Persia case, and will not be rushed into nasty or ill-advised action.
 This decision was made plain at the white house today. It was pointed out that the following must be estab- lished, to form basis for an official action:
 First, the fact that the Persia was torpedoed.
 Second, the identity of the subma- rine.
 Third, the circumstances of the att tack
 Tn administration first awaits a report from Ambassador Penfield on his request for information from the Austrian government as to it's know ledge of the sinking of the Persia, 1 causing the death of Robert N. Nc Medley, the newly appointed American 1 consul at Alden. Sworn affidavits from Persia survivors are also desired as an aid in framing the administra- l tions course.
 COunsels Caution in Congress. l Events moved swiftly in the critical submarine issue after the return o1 President Wilson to Washington to. day. Within an hour after his return the president had long telephone l conversation with Secretary of StFtt Lansing, and was given all the knoWr facts in the Persia case. Almost i4l medidately a formal statement was 1s sued by Secretary Tumulty at th' presidents direction. Then the presi dent sent for Senator Stone ad Rep resentative Flood, chairmen respec lively of the senate and house fofeig1 relations committees, to counse against incorporate action in con gress while the negotiations are il progress.
 The formal statement issued iron the white house read: "The presiden and secretary of state are takinl every means possible to obtain ful facts in this grave matter, and VII act just as soon as the information Il obtained"
 Ii was made plain later in the da. that the purpose in issuing this state ment was not to call attention to th' gravity of the situation, but to eMpha size the necessity of obtaining al facts before taking action.
 Secretary Lansing gave the officla construction placed on the wor' gravity" when he said the situation was grave in it's possibilities and no because of any actual information Il the hands of the government.

Harry B. Umstead Declares Prisoners Are Not TreateIl
 as Human Beings.
COMMISSIONERS DO
 NOT KNOW TRUTH
Captain Horton of GOree Camp Only aDecent" Warden at Cummings. Says Young Man Recently Pariloned by :.
 Governor Hays.

That he was deprived of all oppor- irnity to obtain counsel, to mail let tsrs to members of his family or to his friends, without first having the letters read by wardens at the con- vet farm at Cummings, even though he had been formally pardoned by Governor George w.. Hays, was the complaint made last night by Harry F Umstead of Memphis, who was in the city. last night, en route fro-. Cummings to Marion. in charge of deputy sheriff from Crittenden county.
 5Umstead; it will be remembered, made his escape from the convict farm some months ago. He made his way. toward his home at Memphis, Tenn. At Marion. it is charged, he stcle a mule, which he rode to or near Memphis, where he abandoned the animal. He was recaptured and brought back to Cummings. He was pardoned on December 30 by Cover nor Hays, but because the authori- ties of .Crittenden county wanted him for trial on the charge of stealing the mule, he was held at Cummings until the arrival of a deputy sheriff, who took him in charge yesterday.
 Umstead was convicted at ElDora- do, Union county, of sembezzlement, ard was. sentenced to. serve two years He had served ten months of Z ssntenee hen Iieswtas pardoned> He believes his pardon was due 70 the fact that he has influential friends at Little Rock, and also that some influence may have been ex- erted by members of the recent in vstigating committee. which visited the farm and Cummings, and to which Umstead made statement of conditions said by him and others to exist at. the farm.
 Horton Only "Decent" Warden.
 Umstead was vigorous in his de- .nunciation of the wardens at the Cummings farm, saying there is but cLe man in the lot who is "dscent' this being Capt. D. Horton, of Goree camp. Of Warden l.. D. Bailey, Umstead speaks in strong terms. say ing there is no language fit to ex- press his opinion.
 'Hamp Martln, the WarueH, WHO was recently discharged by Cover nor Hays for his brutality, was per- haps the worst of the lot. He beat me terribly, kicked me while was down, and swore he would kill me and all my folks," said Umstead. "The doc tor there was also discharged recent iy because he would not report the conditions he knew to exist"
 Umstead said all the men at the

SUPPLY OF SHELLS IS
 NOW ON HAND
Great Britain Is Well Sup. piled by War Muni- lions at the
 Present.

LONDON, Nov. 11.-Dr. Addison, one Of the chief officials Of the ministry of munitions, told a party of journalists visiting Woolwich ar. senal yesterday that Britain would be entirely independent of foreign supplies by March next During the Somme offensive the expenditure on armaments has been about 10 times the weekly rate in the month of January last but there were more filled shells in France today. he said than there were at the begin. ming of the war
 With special reference to the steel supply Dr. Addison said:
 "The more Great Britain was de- pendent upon a neutral country the more she was waging war at a dis advantage. One Of the advantages Of making things at home is to save vast sums Of money apart altogether from what would be lost on ex- change"
 He gave an interesting forecast which was that as Great Britain was providing extensions of steel works at a probable saving of something like $3O,OOO.O0O a year, Great Britain provided the program was satisfac- torily developed, would be entirely independent Of foreign steel supplies by next March
