WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York May ESPECIAL:
Progress for the Austrians against
the Italians in southern Tyrcl and on
the lower Isonzo and a continuation
of the Russian advance through kur-
dista toward Mosul, the Russian OBJ
%jective being the Bagdad railway, are
related i'm the latest official com
munications from Vienna and Petro-
grad. In the other theaters there is
much artillery fighting, but little ac-
tivity by the infantry.
The Austrians in the region south
and southeast of Trent in southern
Tyrol are reported by Vienna to have
captured Italian trenches at several
points. taking prisoners 1865 men,
among them 65 officers, and cap
tured seven guns and eleven machine
guns. The entry Of Austrians into
Italian trenches east of Monfalcone,
neal the head of the Gulf of Triest
and the capture here of additional
officers and men also is recorded by
Vienna.
Petrograd reports that the Russian
forces which recently drove out the
Turks from the Rowandez region Is
continuing its progress westward to-
ward Mosul and the Tigris river re-
gion and is drawing nearer the Bag
dad railway. To the northwest,
around Diarbekr, the Turks attempt
ed an attack on the Russians, but
were repulsed. On the greater por-
ton of the line in Belgium and
France the artillery of both the Ger
mans and entente allies continues
active, being especially vigorous in
Belgium, in the regions of Dixmude
and st. Georges, and in France,
around the Avocourt wood, Hill No.
304 and lie Morte Homme, north
west of Verdun. The Germans have
directed another infantry attack
against the French positions west of
Hill No. 304 for the possession of
which there has been much sanguin-
airy fighting, but the maneuver was
again checked by the French curtain
of fire. The Germans in the lake re
gion between Dvinsk and wilma at
tackled and occupied advanced Rus
sian trenches near Lake Dole. The
Russians. however. i'm a counter at
tack, expelled the invaders and drove
them back to their former positions.
In the lower Stripa region of Galicia.
the Teutons launched an attack
against the Russian trenches, but
were repulsed.

site FOR NITRATE
FEDERAL OFFICERS TO BE TOLD
OF WESTINGHOUSE REPORT
ON LITTLE BEND.

Pierre. May 18.-The passage Of
the greater army bill, which places
$40, 900 600 in the hands of the pres
ident for the location and develop
ment of a government nitrate plant,
is of first interest in South Dakota
and a strong movement is being in
augrated to present, through our
congressional delegation, the advan-
tages of the Little Bend power site
for such development. The West
inghouse people, who made an exam
ination of Little Bend in 1911, re-
ported that a 45-foot head is possible
there. which, from the average flow
of the Missouri. will produce 100. 900
horsepower, counting SIS per cent of
the efficiency of the turbines. The
force of the state engineers office is
formulating the material as rapidly
as possible for the presentation of
the project to the president.
1t is understood the president will
place the matter Of location in the
hands of a board of army engineers
and will be entirely guided by the
judgment of such board, quite free
from political influence, and, in that
case. Little Bend will have a ire
mendous advantage.
