TOWNS Of AUSTRIA
CAPTURED BY ITALY
AUSTRIA STRUCK FIRST WITH
HER NAVY AND AIR CRAFT
ON EAST COAST.
ALYFIRSTACTI0N WITH ARMY
German Commander Gen. Hindenberg
Forces Matters Right From Start
Mondays Battles Were Border
9kirmishes-Towns Taken.

London, May 25.-Austria struck
first with her navy and aircraft along
Italys east coast; Italy promptly coun-
tered by throwing a considerable body
of troops across the northeastern
frontier and occupying a stretch of
Austrian territory along the river Is
ONO. Thus, although Field Marshal
Won Hindenberg, who has a reputation
for forcing matters, is reported to be
in command of the Austro-German
troops along the new front, Italy, in
a sense, has forestalled him.
Rome officially announces that the
Italians have occupied a number of
comparatively important towns and
have compelled the Austrians to re-
treat.
This, in brief, summarizes the first
SO hours of the newest phase of the
overwhelming European conflict,
which, being new, appeals to the pop
ular imagination, rather stated by the
seemingly unending struggle in the
other theaters of the war
Shows Long Preparation.
The rapid stroke of the Italian ar
my would seem to bespeak a long
preparation, bearing out what the
press of the allied countries contend
ed months ago, that Italy would throw
in her lot with the entente and was
only waiting for an opportuen time.
Rome's first bulletin dealing with
the movements of the army indicates
that two movements are under way
one to the northward toward the Car
mic Alps, the other through the region
of Friuli, ostensihly aimed at Triest
and the Istrian peninsula. Cervignano,
one of the Austrian towns Occupied by
the Italians, is only about 10 miles
inland from the Gulf of Triest. Both
thrusts developed severe fighting.
Called Border Skirmishes.
Just as Italy lightly characterized
Mondays Austrian raids along her
coast, so Austria characterizes the
military operations to date as border
skirmishes.
While Tuesdays Rome official com
munication laid stress on the Italian
rush across the border, the official
statement from Vienna ignores it and
gives details of the Austrian swoop
on the Italian coast, enumerating the
damage and emphasizing the slight
Italian resistance
