GREATEST VICTORY
For Italians, Who Drive Austrians
From Mountain Top After 2O-Day
Battle - CadOrna's Infantry
Overwhelmed Artillery
of TeutOnS.

Washington, September IA - The
Italians have just won their greatest
victory in the war. They have swept
the Austrians from the slope and top
of Monte San Gabrielle and gained po-
sitions from which they will be able
to push their columns against the
Austrian positions in the Gorilla
plain and the Frigido valley.
The victory came after 20 days of
some of the fiercest fighting the war
has yet witnessed. General Cadorna,
in his final assault upon the Austrian
lines, hurled an enormous force of
infantry against the Austrian artil-
lery and swept them back like chaff.
The complete possession OF Monte
San Gabrielle, says the announce
ment of the victory, given out by the
Italian embassy here, is expected to
be matter of only a few hours.
LIST week the Austrians changed
FROM defensive to offensive, using
masses of their best troops against
the Italian positions.

DAMON AND PYTHIiS INCIDENT
DUPLICATED IN KENTUCKY

Lexington, Ky, September 1.-THE
historic Damon and Pythias incident
was in measure duplicated here to-
day when John Sheridan, 80, of Cow
ington, KY, appeared before the Third
District Exemption board and pro-
posed to take the place of his younger
brother, Thomas Sheridan, 26, in the
National draft army. to which he had
been certified to for service from Gov
ington, his home city.
The older brother explained that,
while he is beyond the draft age, he
is a Soldier of fortune" and to graft
fly his aged mother and, at the same
time permit his younger brother to
hold his present position and support
their mother, he is willing ito step in
to his shoes" and go to the battle
front. His proposition was taken I'M
der advisement.

General Whom KornIlOff Sent Against
Petr0grad Tried 10 End LIfe-Had
Heard His Fate - Formal
Surrender OF General
kOrnllOii IL Awaited.

Petrograd, September 14-After be-
Ing received by Premier Kerensky at
the winter palace and informed Of the
fate which awaited him, General
Kruimoff. commander Of the Kornil0ff
troops which were sent against Pc
trograd, returned to his lodgings to-
night and shot himself The generals
wounds were not fatal.
NJ. Sokice, private secretary to Pre-
Ii Ter Kerensky, informs the Associat-
ed Press that the government has re-
ceived an offer of surrender from IL
companies of Korniloff troops, who
say they have been deceived. Cen
eral Kaledines, who, with his Don
Cossacks began menacing move
ment against the government, has
been checked, and 1t is expected that
he soon will be taken.
Further evidence of detection In
the ranks of the Cossacks from Korni-
loft is given by the arrest near Luga
OF General Krymoff, their command
er, by his own troops. The Cossacks
OF his command have Joined the gov
eminent forces in Luga garrison.
Although the revolt can be consid-
cred formally ended only after the
announcement that General Korniloff,
its leader, has actually surrendered,
the capital and country already show
signs of recovering their composure
and are attempting new process of
reconstruction.

Mexico City, September 1.-THE
revelation that Heinrich Won Eek
hardt, the German minister to Mexico,
had been employing Folke Cronholm,
formerly Swedish charge d'affaires
here, to convey information from Won
Eckhardt to the Berlin foreign Of
flee, has excited tremendous interest
in both Mexican and foreign circles.
The action the Mexican government
may take seems problematical 1t is
believed the fact that Cronholm is not
now in the service of his country will
have some bearing.

in relations between Seweden and
Germany, a profound apology by
Sweden to the United States and the

opinion of Washington ofiicialdom, the
only way in which Seweden can re-
trieve herself under the latest revela-

These revelations show that the
Swedish legation in Mexico City had
placed itself at the disposal of the
German embassy in 1916, in the same
manner as had the Swedish legation

, documents were already notorious.
They had been described in The
Tribune. They had been complained
of bitterly by American soldiers and
sailors abroad They had been de-
nounced by men interested in the Sc
curity of plants producing war ma
terials.
Since the beginning of the war the
government has taken three steps
only to reach the activities of enemy
aliens.
The first was a proclamation for
bidding enemy aliens to write marine
insurance. But they still write any
other kind.
The second was the barred zone
edict, requiring enemy aliens to reg
lister and receive permits to enter
barred zones. But this important
