w PROGRESS OF THE WAR Summary of Developments as They Appeared in London Yesterday. , London, May 24.?Little or no time has been allowed to elapse between the declaration of war ,/und actual lighting between Austria and Italy. Austrian aeroplanes, destroyers and torpedo boats early today descended r on the Italian coast of the Adriatic and bombarded several towns, including Venice; while in the Tyrol and on the eastern frontier Italian and Austrian advance guards have fired the first shots. The plan of campaign has not yet been disclosed, but it is generally believed attempts to inflict a quick and decisive aereai, or ai least, one mat. will discourage the Italians, will be undertaken, largely by the Germans under Field Marshal von Hindenburg. It is said the German troops, with heavy guns, aeroplanes and Zeppelins, already are passing through the valley of the r'ver Adige in the direction k of Verona, and that rapid and fierce blows will be delivered almost immediately at the Italian center. This, the German doubtless believe, would serve to hold off an Italian advance from the province of Venice, where the flat nature of the country would give the Italians a greater chance of success. Throughout Austria and Germany there is bitter denunciation of Italy which for the moment has replaced England as the most hated enemy. In the allied countries on the other hand, Italian intervention is hailed with delight and in the Italian quarters of Eondon and Paris there have been enthusiastic demonstrations and cheering farewells to the Italians leaving to join the colors. Koumania, Greece and Bulgaria have made no move. The government of Bulgaria has reiterated that it will continue neutral as long as Bulgarian interests are not directly affected, and it sees no reason why |^B they should be. The opposition, however, is voicing the opinion that Bulgaria should seize the opportunity to join with the allies. Bulgaria may be drawn in through a question which has arisen with Turkey over the seizure by Turkey k of a number of Bulgarian railway cars loaded with goods. Sofia has lodged a protest against this action. Koumania may be affected by a change of fortune in the battles in middle Galacia. Russia here is delivering a strong counter-offensive and has regained some ground along the San north of Jaroslau. The most important battle, however, is that raging southeast of Przemysl, where the Austrians and Germans are making repeated attacks in an endeavor to break the Russian line and thus relieve the pressure the Russians are bringing to bear on the Germans who crossed the San. Fighting also is in progress in Courland, along the East Prussian frontier and in central Poland, where the Germans have attempted an offensive along the Rawka river. None of these actions apparently has been decisive, although heavy losses have been suffered on both sides. Russia expresses satisfaction with the situation along her front. Heavy fighting has been resumed in the west from Arras to the sea and both Germans and French claim the advantage. It is evident that the allies do not intend to relax their efforts on this tront, although a big general move?vet hppn undertaken. II1C111 iiao Aivt, jv% ? the present operations having as their object improvement in their positions and forcing the Germans to counterattacks. The allies have landed additional troops on the Gallipoli peninsula and, although progress there must continue slow, there is every confidence here that the resistance of the Turks will before long be broken. The loss to the allies is heavy, as is shown by the casualty lists, but it is asserted that the Turks are suffering much more severely, as they are under cross-fire from the ships.

N. Y.. Saturday. Case of the Riggs Bank.?The Riggs National bank evidently failed to make out a case of persecution by the treasury officials. Not only did the bank lose its contention, but came in for a lecture by the presiding judge that was about as bad as a penalty. Secretary McAdoo at all times appeared sure of his ground in the Riggs case, and it is possible that the bank was too quick to see political influence in Comptroller Williams' connection with the affair. It had appeared to this paper that the bank officials had displayed an undue amount of temper, and bad temper is generally an indication of bad judgment. The banking atmosphere at the national capital has been considerably clarified as a result of the trial, yet at the same time it would have been better for all concerned had they approached each other in a spirit that might have tended to a settlement on a friendly basis.?Charlotte Observer. ?
