Tells OF FIERCE
BATTLES RACING

Paris, Jan. G.-Fighting on the Rus
sian front near the Rumanian frontier
is fast growing in intensity and as
suming great ferocity, says the Pet
rograd correspondent of the Havas
Agency in a dispatch filed Wednes-
day.
Dispatches from kiev declare that
the noise of cannon can be heard
along distance Of SO miles and that
windows in all the villages in this re-
gion have been broken by the concus..
sions. The battle is raging with par
ticular fury on the Tarnopol- -Trem-
bowla front, where more than 500. 900
men with $500 cannon are necessarily
engaged.
Wounded Russian officers report
that consequences of this battle al
ready are being shown in certain sec
tors by the blowing in of first line
German trenches and the slow but
irresistible progress of Russian forces
The same officers tell Of enormous diff
fculties the Russians have had to sur
mount on this front, where entangIc-
ments of barbed wire are often laid
"a deep and charged with powerful
electric currents.
AS immediate approach to these en-
tanglements is impossible the Russian
soldiers have invented the following
method of surmounting the difficulty
Good marlsmen fling ropes with hooks
at the ends, over the barbed wire, then
pull until they break the wire down.

PEACE PILGRIMS
WILL REACH The
HAGUE SATURDAY
21O of Ford Expedition Are
Awaited Following Trip
Across Germany

The Hague, via London. JAM 1.-TWO
hundred and ten members of the Hen
ry Ford peace expedition will reach
The Hague at II o'clock Saturday
morning, after their journey across
Germany. Arrangements were COM
pleted today by a local committee to
welcome them at the railway station
and conduct them to different hotels.
The arrangements so far made for
the party after reaching here include
public meetings on Monday and Tues
day in the Grand hall in the Geological
gardens. No restrictions have been
placed by the authorities on their pro-
ceedings as was the case in Denmark.
The attitude Of the Dutch authorities
toward the party may be described as
benevolently passive. The official
standpoint as laid down to The Asso-
ciated Press correspondent today by
high ministerial authorities that Hol-
land is free country and Dutch law
guarantees the right Of assembly with
out interfering unless public order or
morality is offended. Hence the govern
ment does not see the necessity Of in
terferring with public speeches by
members Of the Ford party in favor of
peace. If they help toward that end,
SO much the better, although the Off
cial world is not sanguine in that re-
spect. The American legation today
authorized the following statement:
This legation will be delighted to
extend to the Ford party as private
American citizens travelling abroad all
the courtesy to which they are enti-
tied. They will have the opportunity to
see some OF the treasures Of Dutch
painting and architecture, and doubt
less will have a peaceful, Instructive
stay In Holland as American tourists"

PAN-AMER|CANS
MUCH IMPRESSED
WITH ADDRESS

Washington, Jan. 7.-President wilson
address before the Pan-Americah Scien-
tific Congress last night in which he out
lined the governments plan for Fan
American alliance guaranteeing aosoiute
political independence and territorial III
tegrity, was favorably commented on ny
delegates today.
The United States proposes, the Pres'-
dent said, that all the American nations
shall agree to settle all pending pounu
ary disputes as soon as possible py ann
cable process and to dispose of all dls-
putes in the future by arbitration. Fur
thermore. all countries under the plan
would agree that no revolutionary expe'
dition shall be QUILTED against or sup
plies for revolutionists shipped to neigh
boring states.
President Wilson told his audience that
the Monroe doctrine always would pe
maintained by the United States on its
own authority but that the doctrine ala
not disclose what attitude this country
would assume towards its neighbors TO
the south, and as a result the other ma
tions had been distrustful.
Sessions of the various sections OF the
congress today were brief. The congress
will close tomorrow with a joint meet
ing. when resolutions and suggestions
evolved in sectional meetings will be
taken up.

NEWFOUNDLAND
TO REVIVE HER
SH|PbU|LD|NC

St. Johns, n. F., Jan. IA revival OF
the building Of sailing vessels in New
foundland is in prospect as a result
of the situation in the important fish
cries industry of the colony brought
about by the war. During the last
10 years the export trade in fish has
been carried on chiefly by steamers,
but most Of the freighterS previously
available have now been requisition-
ed by the British and French admiral
ties for war transport purposes. In ad-
dition, all the steel steamers which
hitherto have engaged in the annual
hunt for seals in the Gulf of st. Law
renee in the early spring and during
the remainder of the year have car
ried large cargoes of fish abroad have
been bought by Russia for use as ice
breakers.
There will be much difficulty this
year in finding enough vessels to car
ry Newfoundland fish to foreign mar
kets. Moreover, so many Newfound-
land mariners are now serving with
the British navy that there will be
shortage OF men qualified to act as
masters and mates. Construction of
large wooden sailing vessels to supply
the needs of the colony already has be-
gun and it is expected that in the next
year or two there will be large ad-
dition to the Newfoundland merchant
marine.

SEEK SOLUTION
OF EMBARGO ON
FREIGHT IN n. {.
Railroad Officials, Port Directors
and Business Men Meet
at Boston

Boston. Jan. IA possible solution Of
the freight situation in New England
which has resulted in an embargo on
many lines of shipments. was discussed
today by railroad officials. port directors
and business men at a conference called
by the transportation committee Of the
Chamber Of Commerce.
The port directors believed that the
real difficulty was the absence of suffi-
cient ocean shipping due to the with
drawal OF SO many vessels for war pur-
poses.
K Van Ummersen of the Boston & AL
bany said that 6400 cars were headed for
MS road from competing lines. He said
that If his company had six tracks 1t
could handle the business. George Wood
OF the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford reported that 1850 cars were con-
signed to points on his line from places
east OF Pittsburg. A. s. Crane of the
Boston & Maine said that between 5000
and 4oO0 cars were coming to his road
from points east of Buffalo.
Mr.. Wood denied that the New Haven
was responsible for any coal shortage
in New England. He expressed the opin-
ion that relief from the general embargo
conditions would come next week
President James NJ. Hustis of the Bos-
ton & Maine also told the committee that
the embargo would probably be of short
duration.

HARDSH|PS they SUFFERED

The Thessalonikis engines were dead
because of the water in the hold and as
result she was able to send out only
infreqCent wireless calls which covered
a small area. The PATHS, which had
become separated from her sister ship
took up the search and was joined by
the Scandinavian steamer United States
which had turned out of her course.
Captain Goulandis said he had beer.
unable to make solar observations by
reason of the almost continuous storms
and it was for this reason, he added
that he sent out six erroneous messages
regarding the position of his vessel.
Refused 70 Call for Aid
The captain of the ThessalOniki re-
peatedly refused to send out wireless
calls for aid at the behest of both crew
and passengers. according to William

United States, who was a passenger lc-
turning from a visit to Greece. Will

ON Dec. II severe storm came no
and the first the passengers knew there
was anything wrong. was when the
crew was ordered below to work oa
something th;N had gone wrong
"Speculation concerning the trouble
tended to alarm many of the passengers
and on Dec. % when the Italian liner
Stampalia was sighted, several of them
went to the captain and asked to be
transferred. He assured them that every
thing was all right.
''On Dec. 26 another storm came up
and lfeboat was CARRIED away. Sew
eral passengers and member of the crew
went to the captain in a body and asked
that wireless calls for aid be sent out
He was indignant, saying he was running
the ship and knew his business, and he
refused to send out any call.
Later all the officers and crew ex-
cept the first engineer and two sailors,
demanded that the captain send out calls.
He again refused and the first OFFICER then
sent out the calls.

New York Jan. THE III passen-
gers who were forced to abandon the
sinking Greek steamer Thessaloniki at
sea, arrived here today on the steam
ship PATHS Of the same line and gave
vivid descriptions of the hardships
they suffered during the five weeks
that the Thessaloniki was battered by
gales. On Christmas day. passengers
said. the supply of meat on the Thes-
.saloniki was exhausted, only few
gallons Of water were left and the
ships officers began to portion out
short rations of the meagre supply of
food which remained.
The Thessaloniki first sprung a leak
when she encountered hurricane
which ragged for II hours on Dec. 21.
The boiler and engine rooms were
partially flooded and the steamer sent
out calls for assistance. After the hur-
ricane subsided. however. the water
was pumped out and the steamer pro-
ceeded.
Rough Seas and Gales
Rough seas and gales were again
encountered from Dec. % to Dec. 2G.
Many of the passengers and crew
feared that the steamer was sinking,
as fresh leaks were opened and the
boiler and engine rooms and coal
bunkers rapidly filled with water.
1t was then that the ThessalOnikl
sent out s. O. S. calls which We're
heard by the Patris United States,
F1orizel and other steamers. The Flor
izel was the first to reach the dis
abled vessel and offered to take off
passengers and crew and carry them
to Bermuda. Captain Goulandis. who
was making his first voyage as mas
ter, declined this offer. The Florize,
stood BY until the PATHS came in
sight.
The essalonki's passengers were
transferred to the PATHS with consld-
erable difficulty and were forced TO
leave baggage and personal belongings
behind After the transfer the Patrls
shot a line to the Thes ssaloniki and took
her in tow on JAN l. The wind in
creased greatly during the night ana
early next morning the towline parted
In the afternoon of the same day the
PATHS succeeded in getting another line
to the Thessaloniki and another start
was made toward New York.
Towline Parted
The towline parted for a second time
early on jan and the Thessaloniki
drifted. rapidly to the southeast before
a terrific hurricane, accompanied by
binding snow

Paris. Jan. 6.-Hardships encountered
by the Serbian army in its fight through
the mountains of Albania are described
in a letter to the Temps sent from Scuta
ri on. Dec. H.
This is the sixth capital Serbia has
had during two months" says the writer
after Nish it was Kralievo, then Raska,
Mitrovitza Prisrend and finally Scutari
LAS a tourist l am acquainted with
the Alps, the Carpathans and the Pyr-
nees, but l have never seen such goat
paths for roads running along the edges
of terrible precipices and the sides of
peaks in the clouds. The officials of the
Serbian government rode little mountain
ponies, but often they had to abandon
their mounts and go on foot. 1 have seen
their horses slip and fall into abysses
Sometimes one had to go on all fours
''Then there was snow which caused
fresh suffering. Albanian guerillas were
taking pot shots at us from behind rocks
high up or from opposite sides of the
canyons.
THE army could not bring it's guns
and conveys through such country. When
we began to enter it we had to DESTROY
automobiles. wagons. vehicles and every
sort Of gun. Some officers refused to de-
stroy their pieces. saying they preferred
to use their last bit of strength in trying
to save them; and some of them have
succeeded and actually have brought
their guns across
After all these sufferings from cold,
hunger and fatigue, many soldiers being
barefoot. we are here.
"Altogether there have arrived by va
rious routes 5000 women and children.
The tragedy of the situation is that the
army has almost nothing to eat.
"The soldiers had no bread for four
days. but small quantities of flour were
kept for the women and children,
