TO DRIVE ON ITALY
Italian Officials Believe That Is Next
Enemy Move.

Washington, April 16.-An Austrian
offensive against Italy is imminent and
will be started on large scale, in the
opinion of Italian observers as eX-
pressed in official message today to
the Italian embassy here. The recent
visit of Emperor Charles to the Aus
trian front and inspired articles in the
Austrian and German newspapers. the
usual forerunners of an offensive, are
taken as an indication.
The enemy press has begun to
speak openly of the offensive in order
to prepare the Austro- Hungarian pub
lie for the inevitable losses resulting
from such colossal operations as are
anticipated by semi newspa-
pers,' the dispatches say.
The Vossische Zeitung (Berlin) in
an article full of mysterious illusions
says this spring will put Switzerland
neutrality under the severest test as
the Austro-G German troops will prob-
ably encircle. in the course of their
operations. the little republic"

man. In his petition he recites that
he has not lived with his wife since
october. 1915, when they made a
property settlement and separated.

IN almost constant company with
west The woman, it is stated, lives
in an apartment in Kansas City with
another woman. West is alleged to
spend his evenings and Sundays there
and the couple attend entertainments
together. People in the apartment
are declared to look upon the couple
as engaged, Dana states. The plain
tiff says his wife's conduct is such as
to warrant him in asking for and Sc
curing a divorce. Dana and his wife
