ROME, March 15.--vila Chlasso.
Switzerland. March IC )- Political
pressure upon Italy tQ pledge Its fu
ture course either to the empires of
central Europe or the Alika has- been
augmenting tor some time and is to
day beliewd to- hav^ about reached
its clima*.
According to thoroughly reliable
sources, Prince von Buelow, German
ambassador, lus given formal as
surances''thai Germany will be able
.to overcome Austria's resistance and
induce Vienna to concede to Italy's
territorial concessions demanded
together; with a ?reo hand in . south
ern Albania. In addition, the central
empires would further Italy's am
bitions In tho eastern Mediterranean.
The German also pointed out that
the marine supremacy of Great Bri
tain and Prance would have the ef
fect of crushing Italy.
Representatives' of the Allies have
presented- the matter lu quite a dif
ferent light. They have declared that
' the defeat of Germany and Austria
Hungary was inevitable, even with
out .thc .participation of Italy. In
case Italy refrained from taking part
she would receive nothing from thc
Allies when settlements are mndc
They advance tho further argument
that with thc conclusion of peace, pi
?uv*? -^*e- separation ot
Hungary Trorn Austria was' to bo 0.
pected. This would lead to the ab
sorption ot the . Austrian provinces
of . German nationality by Germany
and thc consequent extension of
German dominion to Trieste, which
thus would forever be lost to Italy.
In addition Italy would be forced
to abandon Avmla and the Aegean
Islands.
What is believed in high quartern
ta be an authoritative outline ol
Italy's territorial demands 'and Aus
tria's position regarding them was
obtained today. The difference of
views, as thus indicated, appears to
be so great that wei) informed per
sons can see no likelihood of an ad
justment.
Roughly speaking, Italy wants >
sweep of territory north and oast t
which would extend* her boundary
around the northern end of the
Adriatic Sea as far south as Flume,
on the eastern coast. That would
include the Austrian naval base at
Pola, and the provinces of Trent and
Trieste. Concessions which Austria
is believed 10 be willing to make are |
insignificant, as compared with th?
demands.
Ic is regarded as probable that,
under pressure from Germany, the
negotiations: may be extended; and
Austria -may be induced to grunt
larger concessions, but the belief In
reatmosRde quarters" ls that tho ex
tremo Austria? concessions we^id
he insufficient to satisfy Italy.
Italy's demands as outlined today,
arc set forth, ne follows: lo thc
north,, she .desires tko entire province
of Tren?vbringing her frontier to
Yenoete, Passlrie snd Bre?la, Includ
es the districts of Reverto Trent,

LONDON, March 16. -With the in
creasing activities, til the british.
Kreuch v/x Belgian armies, the reap
pearance on the coast of Belgium of
British and French warships, and the
time drawing' near for a big effort in
the west, the British public is follow
ing with renewed interest the daily
reports of operations.
The Belgians, supported by the al
lies' warships, have consolidated the
ground they have won in the last few
(lays, while the British have done
likewise with thc strip of territory
taken from thc Germans near Neuve
Chapelle, and have recovered niost, if
not all, of the trenches lost in tho
region of St. Eloi.
Simultaneously there has been
heavy fighting north of Arras, in
Champagne ic the Argonne, and in the
Vosges, in which both Kreuch and
Germans claim successes.
All these operations are believed
here to be preliminary to the general
offensive the allies will undertake
when the ground dries.
The Russians are even more active
than their western allies. The Ger
man offensive against Przasyss hav
ing failed to materialize, probably
owing to the thaw, the Russians' have
undertaken the offensive, and, accord
ing to their own account, are advanc
ing successfully along both banks ot
the Orzyc River and haye occupied
the village of Stegoa, on one of the
main roads leading to Przasnysz
from the northeast. At this point they
repulsed n determined counter attack.
rae Germans . however, ssy . the
Russian attacks have ben repelled and
that they captured 2,000 Russians.
]/ the Carpatblana and in eastern
Galicia, the Russians report a series
of successes against the Auatro-Ger- I
man armies, which, despite deep I
snow, nave kept up aimot continuous
attacks in the Baligrod region and in
some of the central passes, in the
trope of relieving Przemysl. The Rus
sians are closing around the forf"ess
and their infantrymen are w hin
rifle shot of the northern forts.
From unofficial sources it is learned
that the Russians have resumed the
offensive in Bukowina, and a battle
ie in progress near the Bukowina
frontier along the Stanlslau-Kolomea
railway. '.
In the Caucasus, too/ the Russians
again are on the move and, according -
to Petrograd accounts, are pushing
the Turks back along the .coast of the
Black Sea and are threatening the
Turkish array at Oltl, cn the Russo
Turklsh' border.
The allied fleet continues its opera
tions In the Dardanelles and- oft :
Smyrna, but no oflldal report of its
progress has been made for some
days. An Athens report says the
British cruiser Amethyst uss pene
trated the straits as far as Nagara.
The cruiser ls said-'to have been hit

(By StKMirtwl FrwO
LONDON. March 17.-(3:10 a. '
m.)-Edgar Crammond, the financial
writer, in n paper read yesterday be
fore the Royal Statistical Society, '
ssid that in his opinion the war mar*
end in July through the exhaustion ,
of some of the belligerents.
Mr. Crtmmond estimates the total '
cost of tho war to the end of July '
as $16,990.000.000. and the total eco- ;
norn lc loss through damage to pro
perty and other direct and indirect 1
losses at $45,740,000,000* He estl- !
mat?s that Great Britain alo^e will 1
spend up to the end of July $3,540,
OOd.OOO.
The Times, commenting lu Mr.
Grammond's figures, thinks he takes
sn exaggerated view, dlthougH he j
possessen facts which entitle .his (
opinion to respect. The Times points
out that Premier Asquith's estimate .
of Great Britain's expenditure dur
leg the same' period was only $2.- (
500.000, but adr<4: . ?
"This certainly now appears too
low. e?en If Mr. Crammond's esti

WORLD'S BIGGEST
FIGHTING SHIP:
UNITED STATES SUPER
DREADNOUGHT PENNSYL
VANIA LAUNCHED
PRAYER FOLLOWS
HER INTO WATER
Sec. Daniels Says There Never I
Was a Time When the Navy
Was So Powerful as Now
(By Aw?ociatp\l PnM.) I
NEW PO FT NEWS,. Va., March
IC.-The largest fighting ship In the
world, the I'nlted States Beper
drcadnought Pennsylva/afci, was
launched herc today. A prayer that
she might prove a messenger of
peace rather than an engine of de-,
struction went with her as she glid
ed down the inclined ways In the
waters of Jumes River.
As the triggers were sprung at a
signal from Secretary of the Navy
Daniels and the. 15,000 tons red hull
was released. Miss Elizabeth Kolb,
Pn., named the ship for her native
State by crcashlng a bottle of wine
against thc steel prow. When the
hulk plunged Into the water, it creat
ed a swell which rocked the ship of
a nation now at war. the German
converted cruiser Prinz Eitel Fried
rich, moored to a pier les3 than a
hundred yards away.
A launching luncheon followed -il
Old Point Comfort. Secretary
Daniels was the principal speaker,
declaring, in answer to crltlcls of
the unpi eparedness of the American
na.'y. tha: never before In Its his
tory wa.i the navy In better shape
to fight.
"There never was u time," said
Secretary Daniels" when the navy
was so powerful, so ready, so effi
cient., as now. Nor ban there been
a year when the Heel han ' gTfeif So
much time to target practice, man
euvers, war games and practices as
j the present year. The motto of the
navy of today is 'Training. Training
I and More Training; Practice and
j More Practice.' Nothing else keeps
j ships and ment fit. Today they are
fit and ready."
Secretary Daniels reviewed the '
progress of building battleships and
said the launching of the Pennsyl
vania was one of many concrete
proofs of the strength, effectiveness
and steady development of the navy
of 1915. He praised congress for
providing recently for an increase in
the navy, saying lt showed UH wis
dom of the value of submarines
when lt authorized a big increase o(
that craft. .
"No nation," he said, "has placed
auch substantial faith in the deadly
power of this undersea craft. With- j
in u comparatively short time, when
our mighty fleet lies In Hampton
Roads, ready to traverse the ocean,?
it will be accompanied by sui. '
marines which can made twent*
knots and send hurtling through the
water torpedoes capable of sinking .
the levlthlan ships any nation cami
construct."
Secretary Daniels said he hld been
directed by President Wilson to say I
for th0 president thai he was proud |
of the new Pennsylvania, but hoped
it never would'bo called on in war
to demonstrate its prowess.
The hope was expressed by the
secretary that as the Pennsylvania
goes forth aa thn symbol of Ameri
can justice and power, ber mission
would be to help forward a lasting
peace of thc world. "For." he ad
ded, "she ls the embodiment in effec
tiveness of this powerful nation
which believes In peace, but also be- 1
lleves with Hosea Bigelow
"Ef you want peace, tho thing you've
got to du
"Is Jes* ?o Bbo wyou're up to fight in'
.too.*
"But thougn 'up to fighting' if nee- '
essary there never was a time when
it waa so Important for our coun
try to set tho warning world an 6x
aoipta of peace." ,
The secretary said the country
was fortunate in that the muutie of ,
patience snd peace of tho martyred
Lincoln had fallen upon the should
ers of President Wilson to guide ,
tho ship of state in tho present plr
lod of peril and stress.
