Cimone mountains who had Surren- dered and laid down their arms, were shot down by q machine gun of the 9th Battalion of the 14th Regiment of Austrian infantry. The few sur vivors of this butchery were thrown from a preCipiCe.
 Ears, cut from the heads of Italian wounded and threaded on strings, adorned the breasts of Bosnian in fantrymen. One of them, who had a string of fifteen ears, was highly praised by the captain of the 17th Regiment of Austrian infantry.
 Driven to desperation by hunger and goadcd into battle by their officers 1t is safe to say that the Austrian troops are no less inhuman now than they were when these facts were rec orded. It Is highly important that the American public understand that the Allies on the Italian front are combating the same kind of German kulture that has mortified the world In the case of Belgium and Northern France"

BELGIAN WOMEN IN
 CLUTCHES OF HUNS
"Tell Allies Not to Make Bad
 Peace" Their Message

Paris, July 6.-'"reu the Allies not to make a bad peace. Tell them to fight on until we are safe.''
 An aged Belgian woman serving a fifteen year sentence in German prison, sent this message out by the Belgian Countess Goblet dAvriella.
 The countess has been a prisoner herself until last month when she
 was exchanged for an important Ger man prisoner. Her account of life as d prisoner of the Germans in Brussels
 was told to American friends at the Hotel Petrograd-the '. w C. A. Hostess House of Paris.
 '"Thirty Belgian women are shot by the Germans every month--an aver age of one a day., said the countess. We are punished for everything. The heaviest penalty falls upon those who aid the men to escape from the Ger mans"
 The most trivial offenses of pris- oners bring awful punishments. One
 thing for which we are continually under severe penalty is trying to communicate with the men in our own army. Many and many a woman is serving from one to fifteen years in a German prisOn-and prisons in Ger
 many are unspeakable--for sending a letter to her man. Multitudes of our women have not heard from their men since the war began-they do not know whether they still live, whether
 they were killed years ago, or are
 prisoners. The men know nothing about their wives. daughters and
 mothers left behind.
 ''Wc BelSianS are very tired of war. But Americas help has cheered us i more than you can know. We have lived so long in the sound of cannon that when it dies down we miss it;
 VIC say Are the Allies forgetting us? When the noise is the greatest, we know that the bombardment is heavy and here we say: The Allies are fighting for us. Perhaps they will come today Do not feel that it is
 all tragedy in Belgium. Our courage and hope have never wavered ! We are very tired. We do want | peace. We want our homes again and men baCk--so much. But more than i all we want to be a free people. We
 beg you not to stop until we are again 1 in possession of our own land"

Rear Admiral Aaron Ward, |. S. N.
 Sunk One of spanish Fleet in Cuba-NaS Legion of Honor Man.

New York; June 6.--Rcar-Admiral Aaron Ward, U. $. N., retired, died of heart disease in his home at Ros- Iyn, l.. l., yesterday. after a short ill ness Following d brilliant career in the Navy marked especially by his services in the Spanish War, Admiral Ward retired from active service nine years ago tu devote all his time to the cultivation of roses, d hobby which he and his wife had shared from the time he Wus d cadet at Annapolis.

AIJSTRIANS VIOLATE
 TREATIES OF PEACE
BarbariC Methods Employed Dur
 ing Italian Campaign

New York. July 6.---The decision of the American Red Cross and the 1- M. c. A to extend their activities In Italy has been greeted with expres- sions of keen appreciation by the Italian press, according to Dr. Felrce Terrero, director of the Italian Bureau of Information. The good work which these agencies will do, is not the only basis for this attitude of the Italian newspapers italians know that now for the first time, the American public will be given the true picture of Austrian barbarity in waging war and in dealing with civil Ian populations.
 "The world at large has not realized heretofore the systematic Attractions of the rules of civilized warfare, as embodied in the treaties of Geneva ana the Hague, practised by the Aus trian army" said pr. Ferrero. 'The Italian battle ground was relatively distant and the noise of the battle in France, the cries of the oppressed peoples of Belgium and Northern France, downed the faint echoes from the southeast. Means were lacking to spread in the English and the Ameri- gan press, the protests of the Italians against the inhuman conduct of the Austrian troops.
 "Although Austria was one of the gfgners of then Geneva Convention, thousands of cases of gross violations of the Red Cross emblem can be prven with documentary evidence. Spiked clubs to finish off, the wound ed were, from the first, part of the armame ent of Austrian soldiers. In their victorious advance into BanSizZa, the Italian troops gathered 370OO of these inhuman weapons.
 "On the other hand, we have the statement of q well known English man, MT. A. Trevelyan of the British Red Cross, who spent many months on the Italian front to prove that in spite of all provocation from the Aus tr-German troops, the Italians have not retaliated."
 Traced to its source. the apparent impression on the part of the Brit lsh and American press that Austrian troops are less barbarous than their German allies seems to be the result of subtle Austrian method. The statements of prisoners according to Dr. Ferrero. indicate that high Aus Ero-Hungarian officers have ordered LIlC lIOOpS IlS llIilIS ttSsIlllSI bAiC | Sil1i n and British to refrain from barbar- ous acts committed against Italians. Austria apparently knew the far reaching power of the English press on both sides of the Atlantic and thus skillfully obstructcd the efforts of Italy to present the facts to the people of the Western nations.
 Professionally, however English newspaper correspondents have seen the situation as it really was and pre- Bented 1t to their papers," said Dr. Ferrero. Richard Begot, cores pondent of the London Times, said that tho statement. frequently reitcr- ated, that the Austrians were more humane than the Germans, was based on an entirely erroneous impression. . The case was quite the contrary, as he himself could bear witness. The Austrian troops had been ordered to take as few prisoners as possible. Accordingly. 1,600 Italians surrounded on the brink of precipice of the
