London, March 21 (10:30 p.. m.)

The relations hetween Ituly and Aus

tria are helieved to have reached an

acute Mage. A dispatch from Hume

says Austrian and Herman suhjects

have" heen udvlstil hy their consuls

to leave Italy In the shortest possi

ble time anil that n number of (ier

mahs who t-econtly arrived in Italy

tire belnK watched because of the

suspicion that they mo military

spies.

There have been reports for some

days that !eriiiiiny's efforts to secure

the continued neutrality of Italy by

Inducing; Austria to cede Trent and

other territory to her were nut meet

ing with success. Italy, it was said,

was deinaiidins,' that the territory be

handed over to her at once, but the

Teutonic allies desired lo make the

transfer after the war.

KollowiiiK (his came reports that

Austria had commenced .sU'enwthen

in her southern frontier, and ac

cording to a dispatch received in

1'aris from Home today, Italian offic

ers of all arms hehuiKinii to the tlrst

they would not be called unless the

situation was serious. No Austrian

news on the subject is available in

London, the censor in that country

having, it is said, prohibited any

comments.

Greece Also In Heady.

There also are reports that I recce

is preparing to adopt a more active

altitude. Following a series of pro

longed cabinet meetings at Athens

the Creek minister of marine is quot

ed as having said that the Creek

government had received all guaran

tees and to have indicated that the

country was about to engage in some

enterprise.

As the chief objection lo former

I'remier Venizelos' policy of helping

the allies against j Turkey w as de

clared to have been that Hreece had

no guarantees that she would re

ceive adequate compensation, this

statement of the minister of marine

Is considered in high circles in Lon

don as an Intimation that the new

Creek government is now satisfied

with the allies' guarantees.

To Renew Attacks Torts.

The a Hi d fleet is preparing for a

renewal of the attack on the Darda

nelles, which has been delayed by

unfavorable weather. At a council of

the admirals aboard the French bat

tleship SulTren, it is reported that a

decision was reached to make a new

general attack in which all the war

ships will take part.

Heverting to their policy of last

fall, the Germans early this morn

ing made an attack on T'nris with air

"aft. Four Zeppelins starled for the

city, hut 'only two reached it. These

dropped bombs, injuring a number

nf persons and setting fire to build

ings. The French . airmen whos

duty it Is to guard the city, set out

In pursuit of the Hermans, but owing

to the mist they were unable to over

take the airships.

Russians Cain Slowly.
