ITALY GAINS
IN BIG DRIVE
ON TREISTE

Rome, May 29.—The southern
wing of the Austrian line was
being slowly turned today under
tremendous leverage of General
Cadorna's armv. exerted west-
ward on the Hermada plateau
north of Duino.
Duino itself, bounded on one
Bide by the Gulf of Trieste, is
now surrounded on two other
aides by Italian troops and all
but detached from the Austrian
grip.
Capture of Duino is expected
momentarily. With this point
In Italian possession, the way
will be open along tho coast
Itself for advance on Trieste—a
way which is comparatively flat
as opposed to the towering crags
and rocky fastnesses to the
north.
In such an advance the guns
from British monitors in the
gulf will be of great aid.
Vast Number of Dead.
Tho Italian troops are ad-
vancing over battlefields strewn
with hundreds of thousands of
Austrian dead. An estimate of
the number killed is impossible.
According to Au-.riat' piisoners
raptured, entire Austrian divis*
Ions have been completely wiped
out. Vast caverns and dugouts
In which tbe Austrians stored
enormous quantities of war ma-
terials. are falling into tho hands
of the Italian troops.

While the meeting was In

The defense council suggested

believed cloth could be put to
some more needd purposes and
so advised the defense council,
suggesting buttons instead.
“By all means use buttons.”

PLOT REVEALED
By l nilrri Prat.
Washington, May 29. — An-
other startling German plot was
revealed before the house inter-
stata commerce commutes to-
day.
Secretary of State Lanring
disclosed the fact that “Germans
or German officials” attempted
shortly before this nation's war
declaration to Involve the l!. S.
In differences with England and
France thru organization of a
big steamship company that was
deliberately to violate foreign
"trading with the enemy” acts.
Lansing declared that Ger-
many sent an agent hero to or-
ganize tre steamship company.
This agent, he said, loaned
Americans the money to buy
grain and place it aboard ship
in order to raise issue between
this country and one ol the
allies over seizure of American
cargoes.
