London March 4. The allied fleet

ment this morning and ten big war-
ships participated.
A British naval officer reported !
"only two Turkish forts remain in-
tact" Allied landing parties found the
charred remains of soldiers In the
damaged forte. Indicating the Turks
burned their dead before evacuating.
The only craft which either British
or French authorities report as com-
pelled to withdraw from the Darda-
nelles is the British torpedo boat de-
stroyer Zephyr built twenty years
ago.
It was reported that certain big
Krupp guna recently sent to the Dar-
danelles remain unmounted and the
allies' aeroplanes In reconnoisance of
the Dardanellea last night seem to
confirm this.

perate Russian attacks In the Carpa-
thians. Sinking of Submarine Confirmed.
By Associated Tress.
London March 4. The statement
of the collier Thordls that she rammed
and sank a German submnrlne off
Reach Heads appears so well substan-
tiated that her crew will probably re

marine. The dry dock showed the
Thordls' propeller Hide torn off and
her keel badly damaged from ram-
ming. Germans Line Up Big Guns.

ITALY'S RESERVE
mm
CALLED
7000 Already in Readiness Declared
Minister of War in Speech
in Rome.
Br Associated Press
Rome March 4. Generul Zupelll I
Minister of War speaking yesterday j
In the Chamber of Deputies in favor
of the bill authorizing the recall of
teserve officers said that at the end
of this month 7000 of these officers J
have been summoned to the colors.
"All classes in the Nation." he said
"are asking to enter the army."
The War Minister declared those
who had offered their services as vol- j
unteera furnished an inspiration to j
the public to meet "new needs for the
defense of the Fatherland."
A bill presented by Premier Salan-
dra to prevent espionage provides se
vere penalties for any attemrt to ob-
tain military Information. Any one
without authority entering a place
where such Information is obtainable
Is liable to imprisonment for from
one to thirty months and a maximum
One of $fi00.
The Salandra bill authorizes the
government under certain conditions
to prohibit absolutely the publication
of military news providing a penalty
of one year in prison or a fine of $1-
000. If news of this character is sup-
plied to foreign country the penalty
will be doubled. Provision Is made
for the government to take over con-
trol of every industry connected with
the defense of the country Including
wireless telegraphy and aviation.
The press of Italy Is practically
unanimous In arguing that with Ger-
cany attempting to blockade England
and Great Britnln retaliating with re-
prisals Intended to cut off all supplies
from Germany those who suffer most'
are the neutral Nations where condi-
tions dally are becoming more serious
especially In those whose economic
life depends chiefly on maritime commerce.
The Rome Tribitna urges neutrals
to unite and affirm their rights
"against the excesses of belligerents
by maintaining the validity of Inter
national conventions.
