Rome Rejoiced by News.

ROME, August 6. via Paris. $50 am
The announcement by the war Office of
the Italian victory in the Monfalcone
sector is received everywhere in Italy
with rejoicing, although the war is being
directed with such secrecy that the pub
lie at large knows little about it.
In view of the difficult nature of the
ground and the exceptionally favorable
positions held by the Austrians. the TAX

long step in advance. The troops which
SO distinguished themselves are from
Leghorn and Turin. They carried out an
enveioping movement which made pos
sible the gathering in of prisoners in
large numbers.
