ROME, April 23 (Via London)-The official communication issued today reads as follows:
 In the Tonale Zone Saturday night the enemy attempted three successive attacks against our lines and works defending the pass. He was every where repulsed with heavy losses
 Artillery activity and enemy movements have been marked be- tween the Lagarina and Sugana val leys In the upper Cordevole, enemy batteries of all calibres concentrated their fire on Col. Di Lana without effect.
 Along the upper and middle Ison- 20 bad weather has hampered the ac- tion of our artillery.
 "On the Carso east of Selz, our in fantry yesterday afternoon supported by the artillery occupied, despite fierce resistance, strong trenches 360 metres in length. The enemy, having received endorsements made a vii olent counter attack during the night and on the second occasion succeeded in retaking part of the lost trenches
 After deadly hand to- hand strug- gle, in which the enemy suffered heavy losses, we drove him out, capturing 133 prisoners of whom six were of ficers. We also took two machine guns 200 rifles, several flame pro- jectors and numerous cases of am munition and bombs."

COLUMBUS, O., April 23.-At the first presidential preference primary election next Tuesday, Ohio Republi- cans and Democrats will select dele gates and alternates to their national and state conventions, and designate their respective choices for the pres idential and vice presidential nomina- tiOns.
 The distinctive feature of the cleo tions is the contest between the four so-called regular candidates for delegates large on the Republican ticket and three candidates who hope to break the slate. Most opposition to the regular slate appears to be centered on Gov. Frank B. Willis, whose political opponents are trying 10 make his showing in the primaries weak for the sake of hampering him in his campaign for reelection next fall.
 Contests on the Democratic ballot are few and of little importance. President Wilson is expected to have practically no opposition for renom- ination.
 All candidates for delegates and al- ternates to the Republican national convention have declared themselves for former Senator Theodore E. Bur ton of Ohio for president. The pres idential preference ticket bears only his name and that of William Grant Webster, Chicago attorney. The lat ter had meant to be a candidate fol vice president, but a technical errOl threw him into competition with MT Burton.
 Roosevelt sentiment in the state will not be reflected on the surface in the April 25 elections. The Pro gressive state central committee i' expected to name delegates large to it's convention and this plan vii be followed by the party likewise il

SAN ANTONIO, April 23.-General Hugh L. Scott. chief of staff. declared today that he saw mo prospect of the withdrawaT' of the American troops. Although he had intended to General Scott was still here tonight and said he did not know now when be would depart. T,e added that he already had made his report to Sec retary Baker. It is not his intention. he said, to go to Fl Paso, or Colum- bus. and he conveyed the impression that he would deport soon.
 Press dispatches telling of the ap- proval by Secretary Baker of a re- disposition of troops along lines rec commended by General Funston. were read to Generals scott and Funston and they admitted the information had been officially received, but neither would comment on the na- ture of the proposed redistribution It was indicated. however, that thi. did not mean radical action involving changes of base and of main lines O. communication.
 It was pointed out that the force General Pershing has in Mexico is il need Of recuperation and Genera Scott intimated that about ali tha would be done now would be to talk such steps as would increase the ef ficiency of the organization. Tn sixth cavalry from the district nea Brownsville, Texas, passed throug here today on it's way to Columbu where it will remain with the remain der of the e3O0 men General Funsto ordered there last week to be use by General Pershing if he requeste them.

department.
 The new military plan leaves the pursuit of Villa at standstill but frees General Funston's hands to make the position of the forces in Mexico secure by grouping them in posts of such strength as to protect them from attack. It will also serve as a plain warning to General Ca rrauza that he must bend every effort toward securing complete control of the territory south of 1he most ad- vanced American post if he hopes to have the troops recalled.
 Consular reports from Guadalajara said that American employees of the Cinco mining company, about whose safety inquiry has been made, had not been molested.
 Previous unofficial reports from the border said that Americans in that vicinity were in a precarious situa- ton.
 Advices from Manzanillo said fif- teen Americans from the Guadala- iara district had arrived at that port and were awaiting transportation to the United States.

degree. he made it clear that he had not recommended the withdrawal or the troops, and that in their retention in Mexico for the present, he was in thorough accord with the secretary of war
 The only reports received at head quarters today from General Pershing or the base at Columbus. deal with the routine of the expedition. No ac- tive aggression has been made against the fcrces at any point nor was any offensive move made by the Americans.
 This state of affairs may continue it was indicated at headquarters, for many days. There was no disposi- tion to deny that the pursuit of Villa is at a standstill.
 The official admission has been made that General Pershing has con- | centrated his force, drawing back on the main column the detached cav ! airy forces that were for time whipping the country in the vicinity Of Parral.
 Army officers generally expressed the opinion that failure to withdraw the troops now or very soon greatly | increases the danger of clashes with l Carranza's forces and on such a scale that operations might be made neces- sary over a much greater scope than l was contemplated in the chase for l Villa. Reliable reports that anti American sentiment is growing rap idly south of the border have been
 known at headquarters and no se-
 eret is made that credence is placed
 in these reports.
 It was suggested that the presence
 here of General Scott might result
 in General Funston going to Persh-
 ing's base and possibly on into Mex
 ico to confer with him. but no con-
 firmation was available either iron
 General Funston or General Scott.
