HANDSOME SUIT OF TAUPE VELOUR | OVEMBER G, 1017, WATER SHRINKAGE | BAD FOR ITALY | Water in. the Tagliamento River Lowered Causes Apprehension | Among the Allies Concerned | London, Nov. 6.—The eventuality of an Austro-German crossing of the Tagliamento had been foreseen clearly since the Italian retreat began, ac- cording to a despateh dated late Mon- day from the correspondent of the i Daily Mail at Italian headquarters in northern Italy. He emphasized the seriousness for Italy in the sudden liamento. He writes: ‘“Where so much has gone against Ttaly it would seem that even the Tagliamento has played her false. The enemy, however, has not yet been able to push further than the bridge- head of Pinfano, and it will be ma- terially difficult for him to bring up his invading strength for some time. The fighting around the river has not been on a great scale. If the Aus- trians have crossed it, it has been largely because they had to do Wwith troops desperately fatigued. ‘The situation is changing some- What. The Italians have fiien re- victualled and have had some rest. There are many signs thatf their power of re.istance is rising. THe morale of the men has improved and the arrival of some Allied comrades probably is all that is needed to turn the soldiers again into a stubbornly resisting force.” Reiterating that the eventuality of an enemy crossing of the Tagliamento had been forseen, the correspondent | adds that the holding of the river has not been an essential part of the Italian commander’s plans, MOMENTOUS WEEK " SAYS ERZBERGER Says New Chancelor Delayed Accept- ance Until He Conferreda With ~ Party Leaders. . Berlin, Nov. 6.—“This has been the most momentous week since the founding of the empire,” said Herr Erzberger, in a recital of the incidents leading to the solution of the recent political crisis. “Its achievements rep- resent a permanent, political gain for the German people. In view of the July and October happenings the majority leaders were convinced of the hopelessness of permitting the old system to prevail. Through the chief of t:x;/civll cabinet they imparted their/convictions to the crown, urging the imperative -need of a co-ordinat- ed, cohesive governmental policy in foreign and domes.u. issues and har- monious governmental collaboration with’ the Reichstag, during the war, | at least.” | Herr Erzberger then told how Count | von Hertling reserved his decision to Chicago, Nov. §.—Interest in .the election here today is centered in the ! choice of 12 judges of the superior court and 2 judges of the circuit | court. The republicans and demo- crats united in the nomination of a fusion ticket which is opposed by full socialist and independent tickets. The election will be the first real teSt of the war attitude of Chicago, according to statements by both the tusion forces and the socialists. here today was quiet, the principal fight being on the naming of a mgn to. succeed the late Congressman E. J. Hill. At the present time there are three republicans in Washington, Tilson, Fredman and Glynn, and one democrat, Lonergan. Both demo- crats and republicans are fighting in the Fourth Congressional district to- day to land their candidate, and each side claims a victory. Theodore Roosevelt spoke in Bridgeport in fa- vor of Merritt, the republican nom- inee, although many republicans ob- Jected, saying that Merritt was the machine-made candidate of John T. King.

The boxes will be in plain view and all patriotic citizens will have an oppottunity to show their patriotism by contributing somethng. Such articles as chewing gum, ci- garettes, candy, playing cards and in fact anything maybe contributed and will be appreciated: 6,400 PLEDGES HERE.

There are about thirty people still engaged in the canvass, and from present in- dications the committee will be ready to render its final report Wednesday patriotism by contributing something. So far, the refusals amount to but three-tenths of one per cent. of the signed pledges, which is not an un- favorable showing.

SOCIALIST LEADER Olaims That Party Will Support New Government If It Keeps Its Prom~ ises, Including Equil Rights. Copenhagen, Nov. 6,—In an address on Sunday at Elbing, West Prussia, Philip Scheidmann, the German so- clalist leader, said his party would support the new German government it it kept its promises, Including those for equal rights in Prussia, abo- lition of political censorship and con- cessions to labor. The support of the socialists—also was conditioned, he sald, on the carrylng out by the gov- policy In furtherance of everything compatible with Germany’s honor and future for the attainment of a speedy and lasting peace. Otherwlse, Ite said, the socialists would fight the new government as they fought the Michaelis regime. Once equalgrights in Prussia were granted and control of the Reichstag majority over th® make-up of the government and its policy were es- tablished—developments which were springing into being before their eyes—there would be no excuse, Herr Scheidmann declared, for refusing to negotiate peace with Germany on' the pretext that it was ruled autocrat- ically.

ITALIAN HEADQUARTERS. : Italian Headquartérs in Northesn Italy, Monday, Nov. 5.—The crossing of the Tagliamento at Pinzano by - considerable force of the enemy should not be a surprise as this had 3 been foreseen from the heavy press & sure the Austro-German forces centrated on the Italian left wing. '-fll» 2 river Tagliamento is only one of & serfes of defenses. Its main purpose.i was to retard the enemy advance and to gain time for the Italians to re: habilitate and re-concentrate.
