the point where the fighting was
heaviest.
Throughout yesterday and to-day
the battle in the mountains had de-
veloped in a steady succession of
heavy attacks and counterattacks
with occasional brief intervals for
reforming the lines and reorganizing
new positions. Twelve different
enemy assaults had been made with
in five hours preceding the corre-
spondent's visit to headquarters, but
the Italian lines had not yielded a
foot of ground and General Di Gori-
gio, while grave before the struggle
his men were making against tre-
mendous odds, was calm and conf
dent the defensive line would hold
until reinforcements were swung into
the fighting line.
Staff officers from headquarters
were taking the trip along the line
and the route lay straight north OF
the fighting zone. Soon there were
evidences of a bitter struggle just
ahead, for along the route long lines
of Italian infantry decimated in the
last few days were reforming to re-
turn to the fight. They showed the
fearful strain they had been under
but there was no trace of wavering,
and the long lines breathed spirit
of eagerness.
In another zone a sight which
stirred the blood was when solid
ranks of allied reinforcements
crowded the roads. Already they
were within sound of the rumble of
the guns and the roar of the battle
off in the distance could be heard
above the gallop of the cavalry. the
tramp of the infantry and the clamor
of the batteries and supply trains.
1t was a dark day, with a gray
sky, but the whole scene seemed to
tighten up as the color of the Italian
gray was tinted everywhere with
British khaki and French blue. They
had been on the march eight days,
making more than 15 miles a day.

RAILROAD RUMBLES
MAY HAVE TO
CUT OFF TRAINS
Government Needs Require
More Attention; Will Not
Remove Filler

War traffic necessities are press
ing upon the railroads of the country
so as to urge further measures to
clear the tracks for freight which
has to go in order to keep the indus
tries of the United States going and
the people supplied with food and
fuel. Fast de luxe passenger trains
which can be dispensed with are
about to be taken off.
The Pennsylvania Railroad will
drop some. but just what ones is not
fully determined. Yesterday the Bal
timore and Ohio announced with
drawal of several through express
and some local trains. Both the
Pennsylvania Railroad and the Bal
timore and Ohio are swamped with
traffic. Embargo orders go here and
there in endless stream. These two
systems are so located as to feel the
greatest crush because they handle
enormous coal and coke tonnage and
serve a highly developed industrial
territory. These have been days when
the Pennsylvania Railroad has not
had more than 80. per cent. of the
cars demanded by the coal operators
on it's lines.
May Not Remove Filters
There is reason to believe that the
Rea management is prepared to fol-
low the Cassatt move and take off
the New York Chicago fiier. Mr.. Cas-
satt induced the New York Central
to slow the Twentieth Century Linn
tied. Passenger traffic will be cared
for. AS to that there need be no
doubt. 1t is necessary to business
| not less than to pleasure that people
! shall get about. So there will be
enough trains. There will be fuller
trains and probably slower trains.
All operating officers of the Penn
sylvania Railroad are being driven to
greater exertions. r. T. O'Donnel, as
acting general manager. knows he
has hard problem on his hands to
make the most of all existing facili-
ties. He is giving no time to reports
showing what is going well, but is
devoting himself TO the complaints
| and to things which are giving trou-
| BILE. First and foremost stand the pri-
ority hipments-earmarke Uncle
Sam. Whether soldiers, munitions or
Supplies to concerns for Government
account, they get right of way.
