New York. Dec S.-Military interest centers at present on the Italian front. where the central powers are declared in Rome dispatches to be developing their maximum military efforts of the war.
 The terrific struggle still finds it's focal point on the Asiago plateau where Field Marshal Conrad Von Hoetzendorf's army, reinforced to great strength, is trying to force the passes which lead to the Italian plains.
 His troops so far in the fighting have captured some 16,000 Italians, accord ing to the German report, and have succeeded in pushing some distance into the Italian defensive positions.
 The bravery of the Italian troops who have sacrificed themselves in large numbers in blocking the enemy advance has kept the holding line in- tact how as it receded. Even the heaviest enemy masses thrown against the defenses, seemingly regard less of losses, have not sufficed to af- feet a break in the chain of strong positions in which the Italians are now continuing their stand
 Although the Teutons employed "a colossal array of heavy artillery and made large use of asphyXiating gases, the Italian retirement was accom- ?lished gradually and every inch of ground was stubbornly contested.
 The Austro- Germans are now holding the wedge between Mont Tondarecar and Badenecche and they are attempting to force their way to Foza, strike at our lines from the rear and invade the Valstagua." said the dispatch "The difficult defensive operations are carried out by our sol diers with unparalleled valor Entire reparts of Italian troops, surrounded on Mont Fiorand Castel Gomberto sacrificed themselves in order to re- tard the advance of the invaders and give the rest of our units time to re- brigade having lost half of it's ef- fectives. held in check for several hours a far superior number of ene- mics until supplies of ammunition was exhausted and then they retired defending themselves with the bay onet A new formidable enemy att | tack is expected.

Experts Have Declared That Had Same Amount High
 Explosives Been Set Off on Land All Life Within Ten Mile Radius Would Have Been Exterminated.

Halifax, Dec. 9-Four thousand dead!
 This is the estimate of the superin- tendent of the morgue, whose duty 1t was to assemble and epoxse for identification, if possible, the bodies of those who perished by shocks or fire when the ammunition ship Mont Blanc blew up in the harbor Thurs day
 His estimate that startled even those who lived through three days of horror, was based on the records of his district assistants, who late tonight reported total of 900 bod ies recovered.
 They have figured on cer,a'n number of a prescribed area. There appears to be no other way Of deter mining the loss Hundreds perhaps tho, sands. or bodies have been con stunned by the flames and in scores Of cases not only whole families, but whole neighbcrhOOds have heen wiped out and the names ot all theiI dead may never be known.
 Others think this estimate too hsa, but all admit that the superntend- en s way of figuring is as good as any.
 Inquiries made in every quartert t)- day confirm first reports Of the cause of the explosion on the French munitions steamer Many suspicious were heard. but the investigator shows no evidence of au enemy plot.
 The French ship, according to he officially accepted version, whicl pr.- vate inquiry tends to suostantiate. was coming into the harbor, and pass ing through a channel more than a third of a mile wide. when she was rammed by the Norwegian relief ship lmo, outward bound.
 There was a mistake in signals be- tween the ships and when the crash came tanks of benizne on the decks of the Mont Blanc were broken open and it is supposed that the liquid got down into the engine room.
 The government pAo, officers and men realized instantly what would happen. Escaping in their small boats they reached the Dlrtmc tn shore and ran. and were stll running to- wards the woods when they were knocked down by Che force of he eX- plosion.
 Experts declare that had the same amount Of explosives been let loose on land every living thing within radius of ten miles would have been killed.

BREAKS CAMP AT BOISE AND
LEAVES ON SHORT NOTICE FOR
GUARD DUTY IN UTAH

Word was received in this city last
Thursday from the boys at Boise stating
Company f had been ordered to entrain
at once for guard duty some where in
Utah, presumably to guard the Union
Pacific railroad bridges and tunnels in
that state. The company left Thurs
day night for Ogden and is now in
camp at some point in that state. In
speaking of the preparations to leave
Boise, paper of that city speaks in the
following complimentary manner:
What is claimed to be thesmost re-
markable record in the history of the
Idaho National Guard was made Thurs
day when in response to orders receiv-
ed from the war department, western
division, Colonel w. H. Edelblute
directed Company f of Grangeville to
proceed forthwith to Ogden, Utah. The
