WAR ACTIVITY |S
 RESUMED IN WEST
Artillery and Airmen Especially Busy in France and Italy German Submarine Base at OStend Bomber.

New York, Jan. 20.-On the west ern front in France and Belgium the military operations apparently are in creasing all along the line, as com pared with those of the past few weeks, when little or no fighting, ex- cept artillery duels and minor raids, was carried out.
 Entente allied warships have bombed Germany's submarine base at Ostend, on thenorthern Belgian coast, while around Ypres. between Lens and St. Quentin, on the Chemin des Danes, on the St. Mihiel sector and north of the Rhine Marne canal there has been a notable increase in the operations by the infantry. The probabilities are that, with the return of good weather, the expected big bat ties may take place.
 One indication of the probable ear 1 ly commencement of fighting is the resumption of aerial activity on a large scale, especially on the French front. Saturday the French airmen had good day operating against the Teutons, sending down eight enemy machines in fights in the air. On the Italian front the fighting again has turned to the artillery wings of opposing sides, the infantry keep ing to their trenches, except for small patrol engagements. All along the northern front the artillery duels are of violent character, and at several points along the Paive river a like condition prevails.

After an adventurous career of nearly three and half years in fight ing and raiding operations in the Black Sea, the famous former Ger man cruisers Goeben and Breslau have met their fate. The two cruisers es- capped into Turkish waters shortly after the outbreak of the war and were purchased by the Turks.
 The Breslau and Goeben were in the Mediterranean sea at the outbreak o' the war and fled into the Darda- neles after seeking safety from the British and French warships. Since then their activities in the Darda- nelles, at the Black sea entrance to the Bosphorus, and in the Black sea, along the Turkish Asiatic, the Rus sian and the Roumanian coasts have brought them fame for intrepidity second not even to German sea wolves like the Dresden, Sea Adler and the Karlsruhe.

100000 MEN IN AUSTRIA STRIKE,
 DEMAND PEACE
AllFactOries in Vienna and Neu- stadt Are Shut DOwn-PeO- pie Blame Germany For Try ing to Continue War.

London, Jan,. 20,.-A general strike is on throughout Austria, according to an Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Paris today, which reports 100, 900 men quitting work in Vienna and Neustadt, closing down all the war factories. The strikers are described as openly anti-German, and the move ment is both political and economic and especially aimed at securing peace.
 Public demonstrations, it is added, have been held in many places, at which hostility was voiced toward Berlin for trying to force the Aus trians to continue the war.
 The latest German reports which have come through Amsterdam, to which city they were forwarded by the semi-Official Wolff Burtau, fatly assert that the military party has gained the victory in the territorial policy of Germany, and show what face that country proposed to put on annexations in the past. The guise in which these are presented are that the peoples of these countries already have determined their future status through existing representative bodies and that this determination is ire vocable.
 Whether the German newspapers from which these reports have been taken represent the general feeling or are extracts culled at the censorship ! for circulation abroad, remains to be seen. The Taglische Rundschau of Berlin says:
 "We learn that complete agree ment has been reached in a confer ence between the higher army con- mand and the cvhancellor regarding the settlement of all Eastern ques- tions. These are to be regarded as a united whole, and therefore the Lith- uanian, Courland and Polish ques- tions are to be considered as all con- nected with one another. This posi- tion gives united Austro-German front against Russia. The situation is based on the present representative bodies in Lithuania, Courland and Poland, whose unanimous declara- tions are in our hands These declara- tions can be expanded but not can celled. There is likewise a full under standing that effective safeguards must be created in the West"

Cwritten Specially for The Bulletin.)
 In recent paragraph The Man Who Talks to such Bulletin readers as are not interested solely in base ball or the German made war re- marked that, in view of the almost universal human admiration for pluck, he wondered why we didn't take more interest in the plucky little winter birds.
 A coal shortage which prevents us from warmly heating up all our en- closed and roofed-in houses is a ca lamity over which we make raucous complaint. But, when my thermome- ter was dancing attendance on the twenty -below-zero degree marks, a week or 50 ago. little tots of birds who never feel a touch of artificial warmth and whose only shelter, day and night, is the lee of some tree branch or the knot-hole in some tree trunk, were cheerfully, nay, even gaily, hopping and fiuttering and twittering around my buildings. If they felt the extremes cold they didn't show it. There is always much litter around a farm barn-yard, and the lit tie creatures hopped around in it as busy as bees.
 They would perch for a few min utes on a fence or a roof ridge, in the full sweep of the Arctic cold, then flutter down and pick up some seed which their keen eyes had noted in the litter. A minutes lively scratch ing round to see if another happened to be handy, and tfen back again to some cat-safe vantage to preent them selves and make another reconnois- ance.
