At the same time aeroplanes attempted to at- tack the arsenal at Venice. Forced to Withdraw. The enemy’s ships after a very short cannonade, were forced by our torpedo boats to withdraw. The enemy’s aeroplanes were fired upon by our anti-air craft artillery and at- tacked by our aeroplanes and by a dirigible fling over the Adriatic, The. aeroplanes attacked Porto L Corsini, which replied immediately and obliged the enemy to retire quick- ly. At Ancona, where the attack Wwas dircted specially against the rail- way line, with the intention of inter- \rupting communication, slight dam- dge was inflicted, which can be re- paired easily, Attack at Barletta, “At Barletta an attack was made by a scout steamer and destroyers, which were put to flight by one of our ships, which was escorted by tor- pedo boats. = Finally, at Gesi the enemy’s aeroplanes attempted = to throw bombs upon the hangar, but without reaching the mark. ““All other news of operations last night has no feundation,” Germany at War With Italy: London,"May 24, 10:42. a. m.—A despatch from Paris to the Exchange Telegraph company says a telegram from Basel states that the Wolft Agency announces Germany has de- clared war against Italy and recalled Tikely | Prince Von Buelow, hér ambassador rat -Rome. * Spain as: Protector, London, May 24, 6 p. m,—The Reu~ ter Telegram company has received a dispatch from its correspondent at Ma- drid who says the German and the Austro- X-lvngarlam representatives at the Italian court and at the Vatican ‘are leaving Rome tonight, having en- trusted the ‘interests of their coun- tries to the Spanish ambassadors in Rome. $20,000,000 Prizes of War, Rame, May 23, via Paris, May 24, 4 & ‘m~The value of Austrian lnd Turnout at Belmont Park Is Proof That Racing Retains Its Popularity able evidence of the sport’s popular- ity.

As he struggled onward at that stage, aided by all the persua- sion in Jockey Turner’s hands and heels, in a killing effort to stay in front of the three-year-old Sharp- | shooter, every man and womun was jumping up and down, clapping hands. slapping each other’s backs, cheering and yelling in frenzied excitement that only a close finish of a horse race can produce. Sharpshooter had jloomed up from *nowhere” and was coming like an express train. Strom- boli was unmistakably dying, but dy-! ing gamely.

Troops vi houses, -chiefly at night, it is said and carry off by force all the men wthin tht prescribed ages. The Austrian authorities are reported to be making an-effort to direct public wrath | agajnst Italy by posting manifestoes affirming that the levy has been made necessary only by the treachery of Italy. The order from the Italian govern- ment calling for a general mobiliza~ tion was greeted with intense enthu- slasm in Venice. It was greeted with a great popular demonstration, crowds marching through the. streets for many hours. Cheer King and Army.
