AUSTRIA AGREEES
 ID ALLIES TERMS
ARMISTICE IN FORGE AFTER ITALIANS CLEAR COUNTRY
 OF ENEMY.
GERMANY WITHOUT SUPPORT
Terms Make Is Impossible For Aus tria To Resume War-Germany Preparing For An Attack and
 Is Terrifying at Home.

Washington.-Ofic announcement that the Austrian armistice has been signed reached the State Department. In making this known officials gave no indication of the terms imposed, nor was there any explanation of why cessation of hostilities had been delayed 24 hours or more after the render. The generally accepted view, however, seemed to be that it was desired to have virtually all Italian soil freed of enemy troops before the Italian armies were committed to end their attacks upon the routed Austrian forcesA. |s- hmen here said the terms which the Supreme War Council had prepared would make it impossible for the Austrians to renew hostilities, probably including the disarming of the enemy troops and occupation of strategic points as well. Some of these, namely, Trent and Trieste, all ready have been occupied by Italian and allied forces.
 Free movement of the allied forces through Austria to attack Germany from the south should the supreme war command decide such stroke necessary in the future also is expect ed to be stipulated. Unofficial reports from Vienna said the Germans were preparing for such an attack by fever ishly digging trenches on and fortify- ing the Rumanian frontier.
 The defection of Austria leaves Ger many stripped of it's ally and most of the military men here, both allied and American, believe that her capitula tion will follow soon after the terms from Versailles are submitted

HUNDREDS OF GUNS AND 1NNUM- ERABLE MACHINE GUNS HAVE
 BEEN CAPTURED.

Washington. Thirty-three thou sand Austrian troops, hundreds of guns and innumerable machine guns have been captured by Italian and al lied forces on the Italian front, said an official dispatch today from Rome The Thirty-second American Infantry Regiment has gone into action and the fighting now extends practically all along the course of the Piave River.
 The Austrians are resisting stub bolnly, throwing in many new diyi- sions, but have not been able to stop the advancing forces.
 Our offensive is developing farth- CT south." said the dispatch, "and stretches practically all along the l course of the Piave.

"The enemy is resisting with excep- tional stubbornness and is throwing into the fray new divisions, without, however, being successful "fn holding back our troops.

The Eighth army has occupied the narrow pass of Fol lima and has already reached Vittorio.
 The Tenth army after having estab- lished solid bridgeheads over the Mon- ticano River has crossed the river and is advancing along the road Snegli- ano Odrzo The Third army, after neutralizing the formidable artillery fire of the enemy, has crossed the Piave and San Dona di Place and east of Benson

 All earlier official dispatch from Rome said that more than 100 villages and towns had been liberated since the offensive began and that the Aus trian army corps on the left had re- tired in disorder, leaving behind war material and several hundred guns. The position of the Sixth Austrian army corps was described as very critical.

Try Exercising the Demon by Work, and You Will Be Astonished
 at the Result.

Suppose you have day that has the whole stage set for tomorrow's worry and for nothing else. It isn't that day but the next day that has the terrors ready to be faced, so you will likely spend this preceding day in fear. Well, suppose you don't do anything of the kind, but, instead, spend it in work and by not giving thought to the next day.
 What will be the result? You will lace that dreadful morning with a blithe spirit and strength that you never dreamed you could muster. Try 1t some time. You can dc it. And you will say: T am a stronu Ian and it takes strong man andF q bunch of them, at that, to put me down."

AUSTRIA HUNGARY
 EMPEROR SUBMITS
HAS ABANDONED AL HOPES OF MAlNT AIMING SEMBLANCE OF
 AUTHORITY IN KINGDOM.

New York.--The organization of va riouS nations within the former mon archy of Austria Hungary is proceed ing, according to .x-ws dispatches received here. Apparently the En- peror Charles has abandoned all hope authority over much of his former kingdom.
 An Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Zurich, Switzerland, says that the Archduke Joseph, cousin of the emperor, left Budapest after the inde- pendent government of Hungary had been proclaimed there. The dispatch says that Emperor Charles instructed the authorities to yield to the new power without resistance and to, avoid all conflicts with the people.
 The emperor also has issued an i'm perial ordinance authorizing all off cers in the country to place them selves in the service of the armies constituted by the various newly formed governments and to permit the soldiers under their commands to serve likewise.
 Count Michael Karolyi, the leading spirit in the organization of the new Hungarian government. has sent a telegram to the Berlin Tageblatt say ing that a successful revolution has taken place in Budapest and that the Hungarian National Council has taken over the government.
 ''The military and police acknowi- edge the National Council complete ly," said Count Karlyi's message. "The inhabitants are rejoicing"
 A dispatch from London says that a German wireless dispatch picked up by the British Admiralty says that according to an imperial proclama- tion the Austro-Hungarian navy has been handed over to the South Slav National Council sitting in Agram
 In the decree the Austro-Hungarian authorities make an express reserve about the ownership of the fleet, but say until the international question is settled there is no objection to the employment of national emblems by the side of the war flag after the trans fer to the council.
 In the transfer of the Danube flo- tilla to the Hungarian government the f1otilla commandant is instructed to release non-Hungarian members of the crew.
