AUSTRIAN GUNS
THREATEN NAVAL
BASE OF ITALY
Capture of Mount Lovoen by the
Teutons is Serious Blow
to the Entente
Powers,
IT DOMINATES CATTARo BAY
Austria is Also in Commanding PO-
sition in Regard to Capital
of Montenegro.
ALLIES ARE AGAIN TOO SLOW


LONDON, Jan. l2.--The an
nouncement of the occupation OF
Mount Lovcen, in Montenegro. al
though Il is not confirmed from en-
tente forces, is generally accepted
here as true.
Uneasiness which already is freely
expressed in Italy, is reflected in the
English and French newspapers. The
loss OF Lovcen from the point Of
view OF the allies is serious, owing
to the fact that its summit dominates
Cattaro bay, the Italian naval base.
Before Italy entered the war the
French had established number OF
guns on the mountain and had pre-
pared emplacements for heavy guns
which could have swept the bay
Austria. by seizing 1t, forestalls this
danger and is in a commanding posi-
ton with regard to Cettinje, the cap
ital Of Montenegro, which is little
over six miles distant, although
mountains intervene.
The Austrian advance, considering the
distance TO be covered. was much slower
than that made In the Teuton conquest
OF Serbia. but in consideration OF forrni-
dable obstacles which the mountain and
character Of the country presents. It vs.
conceded that the forces are making
steady progress
AIIies Again Too slow.
The question Is being asked as 60 why
! the entente allies did not long ago send
aid TO the Montenegrins and, in particu-
lar. why Italy. which is more acutely af-
fected by this Austrian invasion, had not
taken preventive measures. The Aus
trians are now only ten miles from the
: capital OF Montenegro. calculating the
distance over the existing roads. and n
successful blow at the heart OF the coun-
try may have the effect It is said by
military critics, OF isolating the troops
who are defending the northeastern
frontier.
GermanH Gain. -tn France. -
In t'hampagne the Germans hold n
slight gain. made as 4 result OF the de
terrnined offensive of last Saturday and
Sunday. The French military authorities
say that the German forces which de-
livered the attack lost heavily. as there
were three divisions and they advanced
in the face OF the French artillery fire
which took a terrible toll.
From the eastern front II is reported
that n comparative lull at present pre-
wells. Special dispatches affirm that the
Russians have been so successful in con-
solidating their new positions that the
Austro-Germans have begun 20 remove
supplies from the bases which they had
established in preparation for tho ad-
vance which they intended 70 make in
the coming spring.
