ROME OFFICIAL

ROME, Dec. 13.-The war office
communication issued today says:
AT dawn yesterday between the
Brenta and Piaye rivers the artillery
struggle was renewed with great vio-
lence. In the morning in the Col Del
la Beretta region we regained during
one of our counter-attacks possession
of a great part OF the trenches which
we had been unable to reoccupy the
day before and captured one officer
and fifty-eight men.
In the Calcino valley, two violent
hostile attacks were sanghinarily re-
pulsed.
About midway the enemy renewed
his attacks in force the east of
the Brenta. The action continued
freely the whole afternoon. At night,
owing to the heavy losses. the enemy
gave up the attack few prisoners
remained in our hands.
About p. m. in the Col Dipo
PapeyeX a new and more powerful
attack broke down against our de-
lenses"

Deputy United States Marshal
James Mcdonald of Bisbee is direct
ing the attention of landlords in the
Warren District to their liability in
the matter of harboring prostitutes.
This phase of the presidents recent
proclamation was brought to light
through the arrest OF several Doug

The United States officer points out
that the statute and the attendant
proclamation, putting it into effect, is
as much directed against the landlord
as against the partly directly effected.
He declared that the government is
extremely vigilant in the premises and
seeks to warn local poole of the posi-
bilities in the case of the laws trans

INVESTIGATES COAL
SITUATION IN STATE
Former BisSee Resident Pays
Visit Here to Look Into
Coal Consumption.

Leonard A. Hagy, for several years
private secretary 10 DR.. L. ID. Rick
etts in this district ard at Cananea,
is spending a few days in this city on
business in connection with the Albu-
querqde and Cerillos Coal company,
of Albuquerque, New Mexico, with
which he is now connected. Mr.. lazy
has many friends in the district who
were glad TO see him, even Il 1t ~as

Mr.. hagy came 10 Arizona at the

the coal situation in TINS state was

heved it advisable for selling agencies

view to guarding against possible
shortage. According to Mr.. Hagy tie
coal mines are taxed to the limit OF
their capacity to fill the demands made
by the approach of winter and the re-
quirement of the various industries
which are using a maximum supply
1t is not due to a decrease in proauc-
ton, for he pointed out that, despite
the recent labor troubles which have
passed, the yield of the mines is all
parts of the country is greater than
ever before. but to the unprecedented
demand. 1t is practically impossible,
he said. for the mines greatly to add
to their present production because
there is no prospect of them obtaining
the necessary labor to do so, but when
spring comes it is expected that the
mine output will be more equal to all
the needs. He has been in every
town and city in Arizona on his trip, |
and says he found prosperity and pat
riotism throughout the state.

The allies today ask us for % per

slider our monthly production permits
us to send them without entrenching
