ALLIES KEEP UP RAIDS
ALONG THE WEST FRONT
Constant Unherslded Attacks Said to
Have Affected German Morale

London. Jan. 1.-THE Germans on
the West front are still suffering from
incessant British and French raids.
The real effect Of these small, but per-
sistent, operations probably will not
become apparent until the spring Of
fensiye arrives. From the tales told by
German prisoners taken by the troops
Of Haig and Foch the minor actions Of
the Allied troops have disturbed the
morale Of the enemy more than the
great drives. The latter have been her
aided by artillery preparation, while
the smaller strokes are dealt suddenly
and at unexpected points, thus keen
ing the Germans or edge every minute
The British War Office reports the
success Of enterprises near Neuve
Chapelle and ArmentIerres yesterday
and the repulse Of German attempts to
raid positions northwest of Gueude-
court. On the rest Of the front the ar
tillery bombardment was unbroken. but
no infantry operations were attempted
On some parts of the front severe rain
and snow storms are handlcapping
movements and making trench life
desolate

SHIP PAYMASTER
SAVES SIS, 900 FROM
THE MILWAUKEE
Sea Still Driving Cruiser In
shore-Hope of Saving
Vessel Fades

Eureka. Cal, Jan. 14.-The stranded
cruiser Milwaukee. whose crew was
taken of safely last night, was washed
further toward shore near here to-day.
AS the hull continued to fill with water
hope Of salvaging the vessel faded.
The paymaster of the Milwaukee re-
turned 10 the ship this morning and
brought off $4,000 Personal effects
Of the officers and men also were re
moved to-day.
Preparations for salvage work were
discussed by Lieutenant W. r
Newton, in command of the Milwaukee,
and J. NJ. Frazer and r. J. Porter, heads
of wrecking companies. They boarded
the cruiser and made an examination
Of her condition.
After his inspection of the wreck,
Mr.. Frazer declared that the cruiser
could not be refoated. He said the
stanchions had begun to give way and
that the indications we're that the Mil
waukee soon would go to pieces,
A temporary pier will be built out 10
the Milwaukee so that ordnance, ma
chinery and all other movables can be
stripped from the cruiser as quickly
as possible.
Lieutenant Newton said to-day the
factors responsible for the beaching Of
the Milwaukee were a dense fog, strong
current and the drag Of the heavy line
attached TO the H-3.
Work of salvaging the submarine
was turned over to-day TO a private
concern at a contract price OF SlS,OOO.

PLANS HALL HERE
TO SEAT $4,000
KiraIfy Seeks TO Build
$S,000,000 Structure Near
Times Square

New York is promised the largest
convention hall and indoor amusement
place in the world The projected in
stitution will have a seating capacity
of $4,000, if plans announced yesterday
by Albert f. Kiralfy are carried out
The building. as projected, is TO cost
about SS.O0O,00O. Construction work,
il is promised, will be started in the
spring and completed by October, 1918.
Mr.. Kiralfy, whose Office is at l547
Broadway, is associated with his broth
or. Charles |. Kiralfy, Of London, in the
project
The plans call for a building to oc-
cupy an entire block, 700 feet by 200
feet, a short distance north of Times
Square. Mr.. Kiralfy maintained great
reticence as to the location last night,
although he insisted contracts for the
site had been signed. Real estate men
said that the oniy available sites were
the block bounded by Sixth and Sew
enth avenues, Fiftietn and Fifty-frst
streets. now occupied by car barns OF
the New York Railways Company, or
the block bounded by Eighth and Ninth
avenues. Forty-nlnth and Fiftleth
streets, and now more than half COW
cred bv a car barn Both of these
locations are near the subway and sew
eral other transportation lines.
The site chosen has been leased for
period Of siIty-three years MT:
Kiralfy asserts. The main feature OF
the building as projected will be twin
auditoriums. each seating 10000 per-
sons. and so constructed as 10 be con-
vertible into one whenever a larger
seating capacity is required. On the
ton floor will be a restaurant-th
largest in the world-in which 6,Ooo
persons can be served at one time. Ihe
auditoriums will be behind an ordinary
office building front, so that distinctive
features revealing the nature OF the
building will be lacking.
Ruilt in sections twelve feet long,
the auditorium seats will be in tiers
Of fourteen rows each. The sections
will be removable and storage space
will be provided for them in the base
ment. BY this arrangement the moor
areas of the auditoriums could be
greatly increased if needed for exhibit
tion purposes. while the galleries would
still provide seats for thousands.
English and American capital is be-
hind the plan, Mr. Kiralfy says. Cen
eral Offices of the promoters will be To-
Gated at 140 West Forty-second Street
after February !.
Mr.. Kiralfy said it was proposed 10
bring TO New York for meetings in the
building conventions usually held else
where in the country For many years
the Kiralfy brothers and their father,
Imre Kirslfy, have been producing
pageants. famous throughout England,
AT the Great White City, Shepherds s
Bush. London. Their stadium has since
the beginning Of the war been used for
military purposes by the English. gov
ernment. Similar pageants probably
will be given, Mr.. Kirslfy said, in the
proposed auditorium.

Berlin. Jan. IA prominent inde-
pendent military expert gives me the
following summary OF the campaigns
predestined for 1917:
OF three dominating facts the first
is that the Central Powers will lead
with an offensive of the greatest power.
Any counter move by the Entente
must, according to strategical theory
and practice, consider that fact. Thus
the coming spring campaign of the Al
lies will bear a defensive sdmixture
especially disturbing to Russian inten
tions.
Still more disagreeable for the AL
lies is the second fact. that the un-
fortunate Intervention Of Rumania in
the war will have awkward conse-
quences in the coming period. Ru-
mania's entranced warned the Central
Powers that they faced a crisis By
turning against Rumania with an army
of reserve troops, however. the Teu-
tons we're able to crush that country
without weakening the other fronts. as
is proved by the end Of the Somme bat
tie and the present situation in Mace
donia.
Entente Cooperation Limited
The third and most powerful fact,
however, is that it will be impossible
for the Allies to use their reserves in
such a way as to bring greater pressure
on the German lines.
The new English divisions cannot
reach the decisive points. and will be

London. Jan. 14-"Neither binding
snowstorms, nor paralyzing frosts. nor
impossible marshes could check your
ardor." Such is the tribute Of General
Dimitrieff 10 the Russian forces on the
Riga front. His message furnishes the
key to the Russian attacks in the last
week
Despite long and furious hand-to-
Land struggles and the murderous fire
Of hundreds of machine guns the
Czar's troops have succeeded in break
ing the German lines, almost entirely
destroying three enemy regiments and
routing another. and finally overrun-
ming fortifcstions constructed only
sfter fifteen months hard labor.
The tale OF captures is eloquent. in
cluding fifty machine guns, thirty
cannon ard enormous equipment-even

The Russian movement IS still going
on, and further successes might con-
affect seriously Hindenburg's
plans in Rumanis Realizing its inn
portance. the Teutons are making every
possible effort to check it before meal
culable harm is done. Still using the
massed formation. with which Hinden-
burg beat back the Russians in the fall
OF 1914, the Germans are hurting at

able only to reinforce the French front
and suffer still greater losses in sec
ond and still mightier Somme battle.
The Anglo French armies naturally
cannot fight jointly with the Russians.
Their only possibility is to try new di-
versions in the Balkans or on the
Asiatic front. Always, however. the
scarcity of tonnage will prevent their
undertaking any great movements IN
the Near East or Asia, as always they
must work separately.
Summing up the strategical condi-
tions for the coming year, continu-
alton Of the war is as favorable for
Germany as for the Entente, for the
German strategy desired earlier by
some parties is now possible Of
achievement
Hindenburg turned the attention OF
Germany and her allies 20 the east on
the idea that British participation in
the fighting there has always been
considered dangerous by English eX-
perts. The first consequence of this
move was the crushing Of Rumsnia, a
dashing and incompatible achievement
that served to strengthen the Central
Powers. morally. economically and
from a military standpoint.
Russian Position Weakened
A second a greater consequence
is to be expected in 1917. The Rus
sians have been forced TO fill the Ru-
manian gap. Instead of winning a
powerful confederate on their left
flank, as they had expected, they have
been compelled 20 extend their own
lines by $50 miles. thus grievously

IBy Tclesrsph 70 The tribune

Albany. Jan. I4.-Attorney General
Egburt Woodbury. announced tonight
that as a result Of information secured
bv the Wicks food investigators a civil
suit would be brought against the New
York State Retail Feed Dealers. As
sociation, alleging a violation OF the
Donnelly act, relative to restraining
trade.
The information in the hands Of the
Attorney General is mostly contained
in letters, said to have been written
between officers and members OF the
association. 1t is alleged that they
reveal attempts to prevent farmers
purchasing cattle feed direct and com.
pelling them to buy from members OF
the association.
The Wicks committee and the At
torney Generals Office believe that the
alleged trade restraint has contributed
in a measure to the high cost Of liv-
