Cabarets Banned by
Chicago Liquor Men

CHICAGO, Sept. THE Chicago
Brewers association, the Chicago Re-
tail Liquor Dealers association and
several other kindred organizations,
made known today that they would
begin an active campaign to prohibit
dancing, skating and vaudeville enter
tainments in any Chicago cafe where
liquor is sold.
The move for this separation will
take the form of an ordinance to be
presented to the city council at its
first meeting on Oct I, it is said.
The only form of amusement to be
permitted under the liquor dealers
plan would be band concerts In places
which seat 500 persons or more.
William Legner, president of the
Brewers association, predicted that
with whiskey under the ban by con-
gressional action, by Nov. 1 of this
year, $500 Of the city's 1000 saloon
licenses will be allowed to lapse.

AUSTRIAN HOLD
SOON TO BREAK
(Ry Associated Press)

Although the Austrians apparently
still retain a precarious hold upon
| Monte San Gabrielle, their last re
| manning mountain stronghold north
east of Gorilla, the end is in sight
for them in this region, according to
Italian belief
General Cadorna's report today
shows the Austrians still resisting
desperately but staggering under the
heavy losses which the incessant
Italian pressure of the last few days
has inflicted upon them. This pres
sure is being maintained and is be.
coming decisive, the commander OF
the attacking forces announces.
The Italian reports are invariably
conservative, and it has been noted
that General Cadorna has a habit of
holding an announcement until he is
sure of his ground. The confident
tone of today's communique from
Rome, therefore is considered signi-
ficant.
According to the strategical experts
General Cadorna has only to obtain a
secure hold on Monte San Gabrielle
to give him complete dominance OF
the Biansizza plateau and the country
for to the south, making it possible
to push his way into the Chiapovane
valley and drive a wedge between the
Austrian armies, virtually isolating
the southern armies which directly
bar his way to Triest.
Several times the San Gabrielle
peak has been in Italian hands, but
the Austrians have battled desperate
ly for this vital position and each time
surged back again. There has been
no let up in the Italian pressure, how
ever. and 1t now seems as if the de-
cisive' phase. Of the battle had been
reached.

COPENHAGEN. Sept. Tt Is re-
ported by the Vossische Zeitung Of

A minor reichstag reform bill prom
ised by the government, granting some
thirty additional seats In the reichstag
to the larger cities and mostly thickly
populated Industrial districts, will be
introduced. Other bills will be brought
forward to deal with the falling birth
rate.
The Saxon government has refused
to introduce universal suffrage on the

The operators. according to Man

Most coal dealers are not purchasing
