LONDON. Oct 4^—American, British and Italian warships have destroyed the Austrian naval base at Durazzo, Albania. This sensational exploit, which was carried out on Wednesday, seems to have reduced the Austrlans to one large naval center in the Adriatic, that of Pola, although the port of Flume may be tlsed for this purpose.

in dire straits after losing their support lines eastward through Macedonia, appears to be significant. Italian troops launched an offensive there on Tuesday, It suggests that perhaps military operations may be begun along the Albanian coast in the rear of the retreating Austrlans, and the situation holds large possibilities.
