Political Truce in Italy.
Washington, Oct. 31.-Gratifying
evidence Of the unifying effect upon
the italian people of the Austro-Ger-
man offensive is shown by official
cablegrams received here today. So
cialfsts have shown a disposition for
a truce in political struggles. The par
liamentary ~socialistic group has had
several meetings to consider plans of
cooperation with the government.
The Austro-Gernlan offensive is re-
garded as the last desperate attempt
of the central powers by crushing
Italy to force a peace before the fourth
winter of war begins.
Military experts in Rome are point
ing out that the numerical
superiority OF the enemy on the Italian
front makes it necessary to mass the
Italian forces by drawing back the
arch front and shortening the lines.
which are nov divided Inc notched
along the Isonzo. While this will con-
solidate and strengthen the Italian
lines, the enemy lines will diminish
in strength as they advance as they
will be obliged to use a large force to
maintain their communications and
will lose the impetus of the first dash.

FORTY-ONE
 WOMEN IN
 BAD AGAIN
Washington Patrolmen Gather In a Large Delegation of Women Who Start Picketing Al
 the White House
WOMEN TAKEN IN

WASHINGTON. Nov 20. - Forty one members of the Woman's party were arrested today as fast as they appeared in front of the White House bearing banners inscribed with argu- ments for giving the vote to the weak CT sex. On the occasion of Miss Alice Paul's arrest several weeks ago, the sudIagists made the announcement that pickcting would soon be under taken again on a larger scale than ever Today's harvest of "suf's" as shown on the blotter at police head quarters, show that the women made good their promise.
 Miss Paul was sentenced to six months confinement at the time of her trial and immediately went on a hunger strike. The news given out by the authorities yesterday thay she had taken food was declared by the sufFragists evidence that she had been 'orcibly fed. They were convinced that she never would have willingly taken nomishment. Today's extra ordinary demonstration is believed to have been an outgrowth of the feeling aroused over the matter.
 Among the women arrested were wives of several nationally known men. Mrs. Harvey k. Wiley wife of the pure food expert and the Misses Alice and Betty Gram of Portland, Oregon, were in the list. Mrs. Will liam Kent was taken into custody and her husband was formerly a represcn- tative from California He is now a memger of the tariff commission.

PLOT OF REDS
 ID BREAK JAIL
 IS FRUSTRATED
Supposed Plan to Aid Getaway of Large Number of Members of the Industrial Workers Rolled
 By Chicago Police
MAN AND GIRL UNDER ARREST

CHICAGO, Nov 2O.-What is be- leved to have been an intricate plot to aid the escape of nineteen Indus trial Workers of the World here to- day, was frustrated when the officers arrested man and a sixteen year old girl who are almost certainly the tout side" assistants relied upon by the prisoners.
 The "Reds" were to have been transferred from one jail to another today and the man and girl loitered around outside their present place of confinement. Suspicion was aroused when the man approached one of the jail guards and gave him a note for Bill" Haywood, leader of the l. W. w., who was among the nineteen in the jail.
 Investigation of the contents Of the note showed that it read: "What ac- ton should we take on the outside Give answer to the girl in red
 The man was arrested and police had no difficulty in identifying the "girl in red" as the youngster loiter- ing near the building.
 Later in the day, after the schcd- uled time for making the move from one iail to another had pascsd, the prisoners were safely transferred. The authorities believe that a bold dash for freedom would have been made if the "outside" helpers had been able to work with the incarcerated "Reds."
