Three P.rltish -warships bombarded the Turkish forts at Kilid Uahr and Chirnlkll in the Dardanelles last night, according to news from the Dardanelles sphere of operations. The bombardment was resumed after a brief lull at sunset, the dispatch said.

Tho Turkish artillery lire is improving, owinp to the arrival of more trained German artillerymen. CONSTANTINOPI,i: (via lUrlin nnd Amsterdam), March 1 o. Defeat of the A nglo-Trench ileet in the Dardanelles and the sinking of three mine : weepers and a transport belonging to the allies are announced in an official statement issued here today. The statement is a review of the operations of the Anglo-French and UusMan fleets on iMarch 7, U and 10. It follows: '(in March 7 the Pufsian fleet bombarded the harbors of Killmli. Sin Guhlak. Kosiu and Eregli. The Turkish tire in reply was well directed and t-truek a torpedo boat. The enemy v.ithdrew after their shells had tired .Q oi wooden houses. At Urcgll the Kussians sank several ships. Seven persons were injured by the bombardment. "On March f three of the enemy's :irmored cruisers unsuccessfully bombarded our infantry ami the fortilicalions at Fort Sedd-Fd-Hahr. Mine sweepers! of the enemy which attempted to approach the line of mines under over of a mist were driven oil by our batttcries. "On the night of March 10 the en- ( iiiy tried under cover of cruisers and destroyers, to clear the outer mino holds after larger ships had unsueessfully bombarded the searchlights installed by us. The fortresses sank three mine sweepers. The enemy was forced to withdraw.

An all-day 1 onibardment of the Turkish batteries iefending the narrows of tlie Dardanelles was in progress Friday, it is Mated hi dispatches from Athens today. At the same time six warships bombarded the Turkish forts at Smyrna -with satisfactory results, but the Turkish lire, evidently directed by 1 rained German gunners, proved extremely accurate and the battleship Triumph was struck a number of t imes. Six mote warships have joined the international Meet and it was theso ihat bombarded Smyrna. Fa en before these naval rci foreements arrived Hio armada was the greatest and most 3-owerful ever drawn together. A steady rain of shells w:is directed fhorewarii by the ships in the Dardanelles throughout Friday, the canl.onadc being kept up until darkness fell. Most of the projectiles were burled against the batteries upon the Asiatic side. A bridge near Dardanus "was destroyed and the ships were able ad ar.ee u Den v far as Karantlna, Turkish Claims.

British Cruiser Carries Down 190 When Sunk By Submarine

LONDON, March 1,1. Dispatches received here today fixed the loss of life at 190 souls when the British auxiliary cruiser, lViyano, va.s destroyed, presumably by a torpedo from a German submarine, in the Irish sea. Survivors of the Bayano, who were landed at Ayr, Scotland, report that th vessel sank in three minutes and that no warning had been Kiven her. Although the Bayano was sunk on Thursday morninp, while doing patrol duty, it was not until last night that the admiralty announced the fact that it was not until toilay that the details of the disaster were linaliy glvin. Survivors at Ayr told the following story: "Just before daybreak, about 5 o'clock in the morning", the ship was shaken from stem to stern by a severe explosion. She immediately began to go down, bow first, and Capt. Farr gave orders for every man to help himself. Although the ship settled within three minutes, and there was no timo to lower the life boats, thero was no panic on board. Tho TO FALL B Grand Duke Nicholas' Forces Withdraw to Prepared Positions on Sudden Appearance of Reinforcements. PFTUOGRAD. March 13. Fierce attacks by Gen. von Ilindenburg's troops west of the Niemen river have compelled the Russians to retire slightly along tho front and assume the defensive, it was officially admitted at the war ollice today. Grand Duke Nicholas' forces have withdrawn only to their prepared position, According to the war office, and the German claims that they are retreating to Grodno are emphatically denied. The Russian withdrawal was due to tho sudden appearance at Augustowo of heavy German reinforcements. Apprised of their approach by his aeroplano scouts, tho Russian commander fell back from positions that would have been insecure in the face of the numerical superiority. The battle along tho front from Przasnysz to the Narew and Bohr rivers is still raging without any decisive result. The minor successes of the Germans in Poland is more than offset by the gains of the Russians In Galiela, according to the Petrograd military authorities. The towns of Lupkow and Smolnilc, from which the Russians retired three weeks ago, have been recaptured. Take 4,ono rrbvmcrs. Four thousand Austrian prisoners were taken in this lighting and dispatches from Lemberg state that the Russians killed or wounded twice that number. The otlieial Army Messenger, while admitting the strength of tho German attacks in Poland, asserts that there is no reason for anxiety as to the ultimate success of tho Russians. "Faeh collision on the battle front in north Poland." it says, "leaves Russia more confident of the superiority of her soldiers over tho new German army. The rough punishment inilieted upon von Ilindenburg's corps of young conscripts since they left their own frontier has convinced him of the necessity of distributing the broken regiments among his seasoned troops. "Tho idea of cutting the Warsaw. Petrograd railway has apparently been abandoned by tho Germans. The campaign for the courses of the Bobr ami Narew has narrowed down to two raid?, one from th southern Mazurian lakes in the direction of Lomza. the other from Chorzele along the Orzyc toward Pultusk. "lioth these German attacks are bring conducted in great numbers eollceted from columns which aban-j toned other lines of offense. They; are meeting determined Russian re sist a nee and the proprr.sj has definitely checked."

ERGE ATTACKS COMPEL RUSSIANS

' .;.f'r; 1 coolest man of all was the captain, lie mounted tho bridge and was at his post when tho auxiliary cruiser took her final plunge. One young seaman, upon .showing; evidences of fright, was encouraged by Capt, Can, who slapped the youth upon the back, meanwhile, saying: " 'My good lad. save yourself; don't be afraid.' "Some of the men leaped into the cold water and others were thrown into the yea when the ship gave a pitch and disappeared beneath the surface. Tho survivors were in tho icy water for four hours and all were suffering severely when picked up by the Belfast steamer, Balmerino. and by another small steamer which stood by." The Bayano carried a crew of 21 G men and only 2G are known to have been rescued, 18 of these being picked up by the Balmerino. The Bayano was attacked off Corsowall point. Sl;e was a steamship of 5,948 tons and hailed from Portsmouth. She was taken over by the government shortly after tho outbreak of tho war and fitted out as an auxiliary cruiser. U.S. FORWARDS lnsistson Punishment of Zapatistas for Murder of American and Sullying Flag in Mexico City. YBRA CRUZ, March 13. .Sharp demand for the punishment of the Zapatista soldiers who killed John B. MeManus, an American, and dellled tho United States Hag in Mexico City, has been served upon the Zapatista commander at the capital, it is reliably reported here. Advices received at Gen. Carranza's headquarters state that the demand was presented yesterday afternoon to Gen. alazar, the Zapata leader, by a former attache of the United States embassy at the capital, now a member of the Brazilian legation. The note he handed to Gen. Salazar is said to have come directly from Washington and to have been ordered by Pres't Wilson. UKPORT MOB OUTimi'AKS. WASHINGTON, March 1". Reports of mob outbreaks in Mexico City w hich reached Washington today fiom unofficial sources, addd to the uneasiness in government circles created by tho murder of John 15. McManus. an American citizen in Mexico City. The stories of how the Mexican national palace was stormed by a mob which sought to set at liberty the priests imprisoned there for ransom, forcibly brought to mind the grave possibilities in the situation. Tho fact that tho Zapata commander of the city promised promptly to punish tho men responsible for tho death of McManus did not lessen the serious aspects of the case resulting from the shooting down of the man under tho stars and stripes, w hich floated over his house. Ulllciai advices announced that this murder caused crcat alarm among the foreign residents of the Mexican capital that they might be the next to suffer. Theso features of the situation overShadowed to a great extent the encouragement olhcials took from the promise of the Zapatistas to aid in every way to get food into .Mexico City and keep communication open. cec'y Pryan continued his efforts to induce Carranza and Zapata to keep open tho railway from Vera Cruz to the capital and to obtain reparation for McManus death. YTTJjA CIIAIUH'S PLAN'S, i:F P.VSO, Texas. March l b--Gen. Villa has abandoned his plans for a march upon Mexico City as a result 'of the occupation of the capital by Zapatistas and will open his campaign ivgainst Tampico at once, according to a dispatch received cany today irom San Pedro. After taking Tampico he "will advance atrainst era i.ruz and drive Gen. Carranza, out of Mexico. Villa predicted that he would take

Miss Mary Merrick, of Washington, D. C, Founder of Christ Child Society, Receives Honor.

Sunday morning at the services in the university church at Notr? Dame announcement will be made of the intention of the xmiversity to confer the Laetare medal on Miss Mary V. Merrick of Washington. I), r., founder of the Christ Child society. The formal exercise of conferring the medal will be held at a future date to suit tho convenience of the uniersity and the recipient. The lirst Laetaro medal was conferred by Notre Dame ZO years ago on John Gilmary Shea, historian, and each year since that time the school has so honored tho person chosen as being prominent among Catholics. The medal was given last year to Falward Douglas White, chief justice of the supremo court of the United States. The medal takes its name from Laetaro Sunday, which is the midSunday of Lent.. Miss Mary V. Merrick, daughter of I the late Richard T. Merrick, was born in Washington, D. C. At the age of 14 years she received an iniurv that so disabled her that she has since been unable to sit, stand or walk. Practically her entire life hus been spent lying in a rolling chair by which she moves from room to room in her house. She is taken to church in the same manner, and ta.kes her outings day by day totally incapable of locomotion in any other way. It was from this bed of pain that Miss Merrick conceived tho Christ Child society which was organized in 1891. The society was the outgrowth of an old French and German custom, fostered by Miss Merrick, of clothing a child of poverty on Christmas day. She interested others in the plan until in 1900 the work of relieving destitute children had grown to include other work, such as children's libraries, sewing schools, settlement work, etc. The methods of social work employed aro kept as simple as may be consistent with etticient social service. The poorest districts are selected where rooms are rented and a center of activity is organized, according to the needs of the locality. In these "Christ Child Center" which represent to many children a welcome relief in the monotony of their lives, libraries are opened, classes in sewing are held, shirtwaist making, millinery and cmbroidery are taught. Classes in car- ; pentry, basketry and other useful trades are also organized. In Washington. D. C. the headquarters of the Christ Child society, there are about S00 members including many titled ladies from all parts of tho world, whose husbands or fathers are members of the diplomatic corps at the national capital, likewise many who are connected with the army and navy and tho official lifo of Washington. IJranch societies have been established in New York city, -Chicago, Omaha, Indianapolis, Detroit, Worcester, Ellicot City, Davenport ana many other cities.
