ROME, Sunday.—Three Austrian
aeroplanes flew over Verona this
morning and dropped fifteen bombs
on various parts of the city.
Nearly all the bombs exploded,
killing twenty-eight people, serious
ly wounding thirty-one and slightly
wounding eleven.
Most of the bombs fell on Piazza

The
Verona, capital of the province of
Verona, and, next to Venice, the most
important town of Venetia, is situated
on both banks of the Adige and is dis
tinguished by its striking mediaeval
palaces, many of whose fagades are
adorned with sculptures and frescoes,
now more or less effaced. It possesses
also a splendid cathedral, rebuilt in the
twelfth century, and a number of other
ancient churches.
The picturesque piazza delle Erbe, the
ancient Forum, is the principal square
of the city, and is situated on the right
bank of the river.
The death toll of the air raid on
Verona is heavier than in any attack
from hostile aircraft over England with
the exception of the last two Zeppelin
raids, on September 8, when 20 persons
were killed and 86 wounded, and on
October 13, when 56 were killed and 114
wounded.
Progress Near Gorizia.
General Oadorna yesterday issued the
following communique from Italian
Headquarters: —
In the Ledro Valley hostile artillery,
from the slopes of the Nozzolo, Monte
Pari Cimadoro, and Rochetta, opened
an intense fire against our positions,
and also fired incendiary shells upon
Bezzecca and Pieve di Ledro, without
however succeeding in damaging our
solid defences.
On the Tyrol-Trentino front and in
Carnia there has been no important
event.
On the Isonzo our action continued
yesterday. We progressed toward Ja-
voreck, in the Plezzo basin, and on
the heights north-west of Gorizia.
On. the Carso we took a strong en
trenchment known as Delle Frasche,
south-west of San Martino.
Our aeroplanes on Thursday, despite
unfavorable atmospheric conditions, ac
complished successful incursions upon
the Carso. They bombarded the sta
tions of Reigenberg, San Baniele,
Skope, Dollogliano, and long trains
which were in these stations.
Two hostile machines, an Albatross
and an Aviatik, encountered on the
way, were put to flight by the fire of
their machine-guns. Our aeroplanes
returned unscathed.

Despatches from Rome announce that
ten Americans are known to have
perished on board the Italian liner An
cona, torpedoed off Tunis on Tuesday.
The Italian Minister of Foreign Af
fairs has sent a Note to all neutral
Powers protesting against the sinking
of the Ancona. Never, says the Note,
in all the attacks on Italian shipping,
has Austro-German piracy reached such
a degree of cruelty as in this case, and
nothing could justify in any way the at
tack on a ship so manifestly carrying
no contraband of war nor soldiers in the
service of a belligerent nation; nor
could any of the excuses offered on
former occasions—necessity of war or
measures of reprisals—be put forward in
the case of the Ancona. ^
Th^ “Corriere della Sera, of Milan,

where troops were also reviewed, the
Tsar congratulating them on their gal
lant service and wishing them victory.

Austro-German Mission to Athens Fails, Despite Bait in
Shape of Proffered Support of Loan—Fall of
Veles Is Imminent.
Athens, Saturday.—The famous Aus
tro-German mission has been presented
officially to King Constantine by M.
Quaft and M. Szilassy, Ministers of Ger
many and Austria-Hungary. M. Scou-
loudis assisted at the audience.
The delegates have formulated very
clearly the demands of the Central
Powers on the subject of the disembar
kation of the Anglo-French forces at
Salonica and their passage through
Greek territory. They added that Ger
many was disposed to cover the loan of
forty millions asked of France and Eng
land. They expressed the hope that
Greece in compensation would stop the
disembarkation without delay, even by
force.
The King has renewed the declaration
of neutrality already made by his Gov
ernment, adding that this neutrality im
plied the respect of the rights of the na
tion by the Allies. Salonica, he said, is
a free town; consequently the passage of
the Allies’ troops did not affect the in
dependence of the country.
The mission has provisionally pro
longed its sojourn at Athens, with a
view probably of extending its action.
The arrival is awaited here of important
political personalities, among whom are
two former Ministers of State.—Temps.
SERVIANS MAKE DESPERATE
STAND AT KATCHANIK.
Anglo-French Reinforcements Are
Sorely Needed.
(SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.)
London, Sunday.—-The Exchange Tele
graph Company learns in official quar
ters that a despatch received to-day
from the Servian Headquarters Staff
states that a fierce battle is now pro
ceeding at Katchanik, which commands
an important defile in the mountains
from the north.
The Servians are making a desperate
stand against a large force of Austro-
German and Bulgarian troops equipped
with long-range guns.
The Servians are offering not only a
stubborn, hut an effective, resistance to
the forces of the Central Powers. _At the
same time, the message states, it is clear
that the Servians are not likely to be
able to hold out indefinitely, as the ene
my, having opened communications from
the north, is in a position to bring up
l enforcements.
The struggle at the mouth of the de
file is of great importance. There is a
strong demand for a decisive push to the
north by the Anglo-French troops oper
ating in the vicinity of Veles.
The battle in the Katchanik regions
has developed into a struggle between
time and the ability of the Austro-Ger
man commanders to bring men and guns
in overwhelming numbers from the
north. A speedy advance through Veles
and Uskub would frustrate this portion
of the Bulgarian scheme of campaign
and enable the Servian commanders to
extricate their forces intact.
to the contrary are entirely devoid of
foundation.
SERBS RETIRE IN GOOD ORDER.
FALL OF VELES IMMINENT.
Eranco-British Troops Closely Press
ing Bulgars Near This Town.
The Servian Legation in Paris yes
terday issued the following Note :
Veles is not yet in the hands of the
Franco-Brithsh troops, but the Bul
garians are closely pressed, and the
fall of the town is imminent. In the
region of Veles, the Bulgarians have
had in fact, enormous losses and
have asked for an armistice in order
to bury their dead.
•News arriving here this morning
otates that the Servian Government is
urooeeding to install itself at Mitro-
vitza, toward which town the Servian
troops are carrying out their retreat in
o-ood order, without discouragement or
loss of material. The Bulgarian reports
Enemy Is Constantly Harrassed and
Often Defeated.
The following Servian communique
was issued on Thursday : —
On the northern front, after desperate
fighting, our troops retired in good
order before the numerically superior
enemy.
There is no change on the Troglav-
Maglitch-Alexandrovatz-Yastobatz line of
positions near Ivagnitza.
Along the whole of the eastern front
all the enemy’s attacks have been re
pulsed. The eastern front comprises the
left bank of the southern Morava, of the
Binachka-Morava and the northern en
trance of the Katchanik defile.
The folloiving is the Servian communi
que issued on Friday : —-
In the region of Ivagnitza and in the
Ibar Valley, in the direction of Alexan-
drovatz, fighting is proceeding without
any marked change.
In the region of Krujevatz-Yankova-
Klissura, there is nothing to report.
In the valley of the Pusta-Reka our
troops attacked the enemy yesterday
and repulsed him. The enemy was also
repulsed in the valley of the Kriva-
Reka-—the Leskovitza—and in that of
the Binachka-Morava.
Toward Tetovo-Skoplie our troops have
repulsed the enemy.
On the Babuna our troops and those
of the Allies occupy, the village of Rou-
yen-Shuhovo (?) and the station of
Gradsko.

ITALIAN CRUISER SHELLS
PORT OF DEDEAGACH.
The Piemonte, Despite Submarine
Attack, Inflicts Much Damage.
Salonica, Sunday.—The Italian crui
ser Piemonte, which had left Mudros for
Dedeagach, arrived off that port on
Thursday afternoon. After cruising
about for a time it opened a very pre
cise fire on the station and on two
trains, destroying eighty wagons and all
that remained standing since the pre
vious bombardment.
An enemy submarine also made its
appearance and tried twice to torpedo
the Piemonte, which, skilfully manoeu
vred, succeeded in evading the torpe
does, and opened fire on the craft. It is
not yet known if the submarine was
sunk. The railway station is complete
ly gutted. The bombardment lasted an
hour.
The Piemonte then steamed to Salo
nica, where she remained for a time.—

ALBANIAN RELIEF FUND
SCHOONER AT GALLIPOLI.
(SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.)

of its owner, Mr. William Willard How

(BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.)
New York, Sunday. — The crisp, in
vigorating weather which has been pre
vailing, with brilliant sunshine day after
day and light frosts nightly, made con
ditions just right for football, and yes
terday afternoon found an enormous
crowd filling the massive Yale Bowl at
New Haven to overflowing for the am
nual gridiron battle between those an
cient rivals, Yale and. Princeton.
The betting favored Princeton at odds
of 2 to 1, and sporting men—exclusive
of those having any connection with the
Blue, of course—were generally of the
opinion that the Bulldog was due to be
come the prey of the Tiger. This belief
was strengthened by past perrormances,
for the Crimson game was the only blot
on Princeton’s record, whereas Yale had
dropped three contests to Virginia,
Washington-and- Jefferson and Colgate
respectively.
The game began with Princeton re
sorting to a muzzling series of tandem
plays interspersed with some wide-open
shifts. The bulk of the Princeton attack
was directed against the opposing tac
kles. Captain Wilson’s team gave early
evidences of its being on its mettle, and
bj 7 the middle of the first quarter the
adherents of the Blue were jubilant, for
the eleven was putting up one of those
famous uphill struggles that brought
back memories of the days of the peerless
“Ted” Coy.
Uncovering a trip-hammer attack, the
Orange and Black worked its way up the
field and crashed through for a touch
down. The goal was kicked.
Tho Yale cheering section exploded
with a 42-centimetre roar when the Blue
crossed the Princeton goal-line. The
goal was missed. The former cheering,
however, was dwarfed into infantile pro
portions when the fighting sons of old
Eli pounded their way through the pug
nacious Tigers for a second touchdown
and kicked the goal therefrom, giving
Yale a 13-7 triumph and incidentally
boosting their chances as regards tlie
outcome of the approaching all-impor
tant game with Harvard.

Cheers Words of

(SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.)
London, Sunday.—Proof of how all
classes in Great Britain are rallying to
support the country during the war was
supplied this afternoon when the Duke
of Rutland, presiding at a lecture by
Mr. Ben Tillett, at the Haymarket
Theatre, lauded the work of Mr. Tillett
with whom he acknowledged he had
been unable to see eye to eye on many
questions before the outbreak of hos
tilities, and said the workers of Eng
land, in their inspiring rally in support
of King and country had displayed the
highest type of patriotism.
Mr. Tillett, delivering a message from
the trenches to those at home, said many
more men were needed to fill the gaps
in the army in order to conquer the
Germans, wffio, despite the fact that they
were fighting to destroy democracy, were
as brave as any soldiers in the world.
The audience, made up largely of lea
ders in English society, heartily ap
plauded the vigorous Labor leader, who
asserted that until Germany was beaten
and normal life in Great Britain re
stored, the Union Jack was the union
under which all organized workers must
enroll.
While Mr. Tillett was speaking to the dis
tinguished audience in the Haymarket,
Cardinal Bourne, escorted by General
Parsons and his staff, inspected and ad
dressed the men of the Irish Brigade at
Aldershot, saying that, in joining the
army of freedom to fight for Ireland, the
Empire and the King, they were ani
mated by the same sublime spirit as that
of their countrymen at the front, who
had destroyed the hope of Germany that
the war would make Ireland the centre
of political and domestic dissensions and
were adding fresh pages to the glorious
history of Irish soldiers on the battle
field.
At the conclusion of the address the
whole brigade, officers and men, knelt to
receive the cardinal’s blessing.

The
Verona, capital of the province of
Verona, and, next to Venice, the most
important town of Venetia, is situated
on both banks of the Adige and is dis
tinguished by its striking mediaeval
palaces, many of whose fagades are
adorned with sculptures and frescoes,
now more or less effaced. It possesses
also a splendid cathedral, rebuilt in the
twelfth century, and a number of other
ancient churches.
The picturesque piazza delle Erbe, the
ancient Forum, is the principal square
of the city, and is situated on the right
bank of the river.
The death toll of the air raid on
Verona is heavier than in any attack
from hostile aircraft over England with
the exception of the last two Zeppelin
raids, on September 8, when 20 persons
were killed and 86 wounded, and on
October 13, when 56 were killed and 114
wounded.
Progress Near Gorizia.
General Oadorna yesterday issued the
following communique from Italian
Headquarters: —
In the Ledro Valley hostile artillery,
from the slopes of the Nozzolo, Monte
Pari Cimadoro, and Rochetta, opened
an intense fire against our positions,
and also fired incendiary shells upon
Bezzecca and Pieve di Ledro, without
however succeeding in damaging our
solid defences.
On the Tyrol-Trentino front and in
Carnia there has been no important
event.
On the Isonzo our action continued
yesterday. We progressed toward Ja-
voreck, in the Plezzo basin, and on
the heights north-west of Gorizia.
On. the Carso we took a strong en
trenchment known as Delle Frasche,
south-west of San Martino.
Our aeroplanes on Thursday, despite
unfavorable atmospheric conditions, ac
complished successful incursions upon
the Carso. They bombarded the sta
tions of Reigenberg, San Baniele,
Skope, Dollogliano, and long trains
which were in these stations.
Two hostile machines, an Albatross
and an Aviatik, encountered on the
way, were put to flight by the fire of
their machine-guns. Our aeroplanes
returned unscathed.

Despatches from Rome announce that
ten Americans are known to have
perished on board the Italian liner An

The Italian Minister of Foreign Af
fairs has sent a Note to all neutral
Powers protesting against the sinking
of the Ancona. Never, says the Note,
in all the attacks on Italian shipping,
has Austro-German piracy reached such
a degree of cruelty as in this case, and
nothing could justify in any way the at
tack on a ship so manifestly carrying
no contraband of war nor soldiers in the
service of a belligerent nation; nor
could any of the excuses offered on
former occasions—necessity of war or
measures of reprisals—be put forward in
the case of the Ancona. ^

Austro-German Mission to Athens Fails, Despite Bait in
Shape of Proffered Support of Loan—Fall of
Veles Is Imminent.
Athens, Saturday.—The famous Aus
tro-German mission has been presented
officially to King Constantine by M.
Quaft and M. Szilassy, Ministers of Ger
many and Austria-Hungary. M. Scou-
loudis assisted at the audience.
The delegates have formulated very
clearly the demands of the Central
Powers on the subject of the disembar
kation of the Anglo-French forces at
Salonica and their passage through
Greek territory. They added that Ger
many was disposed to cover the loan of
forty millions asked of France and Eng
land. They expressed the hope that
Greece in compensation would stop the
disembarkation without delay, even by
force.
The King has renewed the declaration
of neutrality already made by his Gov
ernment, adding that this neutrality im
plied the respect of the rights of the na
tion by the Allies. Salonica, he said, is
a free town; consequently the passage of
the Allies’ troops did not affect the in
dependence of the country.
The mission has provisionally pro
longed its sojourn at Athens, with a
view probably of extending its action.
The arrival is awaited here of important
political personalities, among whom are
two former Ministers of State.—Temps.
SERVIANS MAKE DESPERATE
STAND AT KATCHANIK.
Anglo-French Reinforcements Are
Sorely Needed.
(SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.)
London, Sunday.—-The Exchange Tele
graph Company learns in official quar
ters that a despatch received to-day
from the Servian Headquarters Staff
states that a fierce battle is now pro
ceeding at Katchanik, which commands
an important defile in the mountains
from the north.
The Servians are making a desperate
stand against a large force of Austro-
German and Bulgarian troops equipped
with long-range guns.
The Servians are offering not only a
stubborn, hut an effective, resistance to
the forces of the Central Powers. _At the
same time, the message states, it is clear
that the Servians are not likely to be
able to hold out indefinitely, as the ene
my, having opened communications from
the north, is in a position to bring up
l enforcements.
The struggle at the mouth of the de
file is of great importance. There is a
strong demand for a decisive push to the
north by the Anglo-French troops oper
ating in the vicinity of Veles.
The battle in the Katchanik regions
has developed into a struggle between
time and the ability of the Austro-Ger
man commanders to bring men and guns
in overwhelming numbers from the
north. A speedy advance through Veles
and Uskub would frustrate this portion
of the Bulgarian scheme of campaign
and enable the Servian commanders to
extricate their forces intact.
to the contrary are entirely devoid of
foundation.
SERBS RETIRE IN GOOD ORDER.
FALL OF VELES IMMINENT.
Eranco-British Troops Closely Press
ing Bulgars Near This Town.
The Servian Legation in Paris yes
terday issued the following Note :
Veles is not yet in the hands of the
Franco-Brithsh troops, but the Bul
garians are closely pressed, and the
fall of the town is imminent. In the
region of Veles, the Bulgarians have
had in fact, enormous losses and
have asked for an armistice in order
to bury their dead.
•News arriving here this morning
otates that the Servian Government is
urooeeding to install itself at Mitro-
vitza, toward which town the Servian
troops are carrying out their retreat in
o-ood order, without discouragement or
loss of material. The Bulgarian reports
Enemy Is Constantly Harrassed and
Often Defeated.
The following Servian communique
was issued on Thursday : —
On the northern front, after desperate
fighting, our troops retired in good
order before the numerically superior
enemy.
There is no change on the Troglav-
Maglitch-Alexandrovatz-Yastobatz line of
positions near Ivagnitza.
Along the whole of the eastern front
all the enemy’s attacks have been re
pulsed. The eastern front comprises the
left bank of the southern Morava, of the
Binachka-Morava and the northern en
trance of the Katchanik defile.
The folloiving is the Servian communi
que issued on Friday : —-
In the region of Ivagnitza and in the
Ibar Valley, in the direction of Alexan-
drovatz, fighting is proceeding without
any marked change.
In the region of Krujevatz-Yankova-
Klissura, there is nothing to report.
In the valley of the Pusta-Reka our
troops attacked the enemy yesterday
and repulsed him. The enemy was also
repulsed in the valley of the Kriva-
Reka-—the Leskovitza—and in that of
the Binachka-Morava.
Toward Tetovo-Skoplie our troops have
repulsed the enemy.
On the Babuna our troops and those
of the Allies occupy, the village of Rou-
yen-Shuhovo (?) and the station of
Gradsko.

ITALIAN CRUISER SHELLS
PORT OF DEDEAGACH.
The Piemonte, Despite Submarine
Attack, Inflicts Much Damage.
Salonica, Sunday.—The Italian crui
ser Piemonte, which had left Mudros for
Dedeagach, arrived off that port on
Thursday afternoon. After cruising
about for a time it opened a very pre
cise fire on the station and on two
trains, destroying eighty wagons and all
that remained standing since the pre
vious bombardment.
An enemy submarine also made its
appearance and tried twice to torpedo
the Piemonte, which, skilfully manoeu
vred, succeeded in evading the torpe
does, and opened fire on the craft. It is
not yet known if the submarine was
sunk. The railway station is complete
ly gutted. The bombardment lasted an
hour.
The Piemonte then steamed to Salo
nica, where she remained for a time.—

(BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.)
New York, Sunday. — The crisp, in
vigorating weather which has been pre
vailing, with brilliant sunshine day after
day and light frosts nightly, made con
ditions just right for football, and yes
terday afternoon found an enormous
crowd filling the massive Yale Bowl at
New Haven to overflowing for the am
nual gridiron battle between those an
cient rivals, Yale and. Princeton.
The betting favored Princeton at odds
of 2 to 1, and sporting men—exclusive
of those having any connection with the
Blue, of course—were generally of the
opinion that the Bulldog was due to be
come the prey of the Tiger. This belief
was strengthened by past perrormances,
for the Crimson game was the only blot
on Princeton’s record, whereas Yale had
dropped three contests to Virginia,
Washington-and- Jefferson and Colgate
respectively.
The game began with Princeton re
sorting to a muzzling series of tandem
plays interspersed with some wide-open
shifts. The bulk of the Princeton attack
was directed against the opposing tac
kles. Captain Wilson’s team gave early
evidences of its being on its mettle, and
bj 7 the middle of the first quarter the
adherents of the Blue were jubilant, for
the eleven was putting up one of those
famous uphill struggles that brought
back memories of the days of the peerless
“Ted” Coy.
Uncovering a trip-hammer attack, the
Orange and Black worked its way up the
field and crashed through for a touch
down. The goal was kicked.
Tho Yale cheering section exploded
with a 42-centimetre roar when the Blue
crossed the Princeton goal-line. The
goal was missed. The former cheering,
however, was dwarfed into infantile pro
portions when the fighting sons of old
Eli pounded their way through the pug
nacious Tigers for a second touchdown
and kicked the goal therefrom, giving
Yale a 13-7 triumph and incidentally
boosting their chances as regards tlie
outcome of the approaching all-impor
tant game with Harvard.
British Society
Cheers Words of
Mr. Ben Tillett
Duke of Rutland and Labor Leader,
on Same Platform, Show England’s
Solidarity in War.
(SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.)
London, Sunday.—Proof of how all
classes in Great Britain are rallying to
support the country during the war was
supplied this afternoon when the Duke
of Rutland, presiding at a lecture by
Mr. Ben Tillett, at the Haymarket
Theatre, lauded the work of Mr. Tillett
with whom he acknowledged he had
been unable to see eye to eye on many
questions before the outbreak of hos
tilities, and said the workers of Eng
land, in their inspiring rally in support
of King and country had displayed the
highest type of patriotism.
Mr. Tillett, delivering a message from
the trenches to those at home, said many
more men were needed to fill the gaps
in the army in order to conquer the
Germans, wffio, despite the fact that they
were fighting to destroy democracy, were
as brave as any soldiers in the world.
The audience, made up largely of lea
ders in English society, heartily ap
plauded the vigorous Labor leader, who
asserted that until Germany was beaten
and normal life in Great Britain re
stored, the Union Jack was the union
under which all organized workers must
enroll.
While Mr. Tillett was speaking to the dis
tinguished audience in the Haymarket,
Cardinal Bourne, escorted by General
Parsons and his staff, inspected and ad
dressed the men of the Irish Brigade at
Aldershot, saying that, in joining the
army of freedom to fight for Ireland, the
Empire and the King, they were ani
mated by the same sublime spirit as that
of their countrymen at the front, who
had destroyed the hope of Germany that
the war would make Ireland the centre
of political and domestic dissensions and
were adding fresh pages to the glorious
history of Irish soldiers on the battle
field.
At the conclusion of the address the
whole brigade, officers and men, knelt to
receive the cardinal’s blessing.
