(Ry Associated Press

General Cadorna's armies in north
ern Italy are again in retreat, forced

man thrust.

Italians have evacuated it, Berlin re-

statement, is being left to Austro-Ger-

Rome announced this morning that
an evacuation of the mountainous dis

in progress for the establishment of a
new line This was soon followed by
Berlin's statement that the Italians
were retreating all along the front

As Far as Trentino

These momentous events mean an
Italian withdrawal along the entire
front as far west as the edge of the
Trentino district.
The whole Italian line, apparently
is being drawn back in the direction
of the Piaye, which runs approximate
ly 25 miles west of the Tagliamento
and cuts in reasonably straight
course northwesterly across the neck
of Italy east of Venice on the Adriatic
to the Austrian border. This would
give line little more than 80 miles
in length as compared with the line
of approximately $50 miles that exist
ed before the Isonzo retreat began
News dispatches from the Italian
front this morning indicated that Ca.
dorna was preparing to fail back to a
new line after having made a stand
on the Tagliamento to retard the en-
envy advance.

RUSSIA PROFITS BY GREAT SUMS
 IN RETIRING GAR
Provisional Government Takes Charge Properties
 Worth $1,0o0,0o0, ,000.
Correspondence Associated Press)

Correspondence Associated Press)
 Petrograd, May 31.-Property val ued at s700, 100000, from which Nich- olas Ronlanoff, formerly emperor of Russia, enjoyed the revenues for life only. have been taken from him by the Provisional government. A spec ial commission of the government has been discussing whether land, palaces and other property owned by Nicholas and estimated to be worth $4S, 100000 shall be sequestrated by the state: This commission also considered whether the property of the grand dukes and duchesses worth about $21O,O0O,00 should be seized for the benefit of tine public. The value of all the property owned by the former em- peror or members of the formerly roy al house of Russia is estimated by Professor Okunieff at $958 8,000,000.
 In addition, the professor asserts, Nicholas still has on deposit in the Bank of England $35,000,00 placed there years ago in provision for the rainy day which now has come. The late Grand Duke Alexis, uncle to the former Emperor Nicholas, left $1O,- 0oo0o0 on deposit in the Bank of France.
 There are also two Romanoff family trust funds. One was founded by Alexander III when on his death-bed in Livadia which now amounts to ST. 8O0,OOO, is invested in Russia and is within reach of the revolutionary gov ernment. Another, amounting to $24,- 100000, was derived by Alexander II when he liberated 4,OOO,000 serfs for $6 each in 1861.
 Chief among the properties taken from the former emperor are the so- called Cabinet Lands." These con- stituted one of the largest private es- tates in the world and included vast forests, gold, silver, platinum and cop per mines, 100 factories for making paper, textiles, glass Or porcelain and 300 flour mills. Nicholas derived $32, 100000 a year in profits from the rental of these properties to peasants or others.
 The former Emperor Nicholas an- nual income when he was deposed is estimated by Professor Okunieff at $65 ,OOO,O00. The duma allowed him SS S,5OO,OO0 a year to pay the expenses of the imperial court but, because of mismanagement, pill fering, the annual cost amounted to $2O, ,OUO,OOO according to the state ment of Zubatcheff, Councillor of the empire.
 Appropriation of all the "appanage lands' which grand dukes and ducn- esses enjoyed a life income was de- manded by the Council of Workmen's and Soldiers deputies. These lands are estimated to be worth $140,000,- 900. The members of the former roy al house offered to surrender them to the government if the nation demand ed it. |
 Besides the lands, the grand dukes and duchesses owned, as private in- 1lviduals, more than 200 palaces or villas estimated to be worth $7O,00,- poo. Some of these include the rich ' est lands in the Crimea and the Cau- :asus. The5e estates were taken by f the Romanoffs after the conquest of the Crimea and the Caucasus and in most cases no compensation was paid to the former owners.
