SAYS AUSTRIANS
QUIT TOLMINO
A Correspondent Reports
IsonzO Town in Ital-
ian Hands.

Paris. July l2.-According 70 dis
rs,eh 20 the journal from the Italian
front the AuStrisnS appear 70 have
evacuated Tolmino, on the lsonzo front.
The correspondent says that the
sctivity Of the Austrisns in that region
is felt less and less.
The Italians advanced yesterday in
the Adige Valley and won back part OF
the positions on Monte Corno lost 70
the Austrisns on Monday.
The Italian official statement says:
Yesterday in the region of the
north Of the Sierra Valley and in the
region Of Malga Zugna. On the slopes
north Of the Pasubio We partially re-
occupied positions on Monte Corno
which we lost on July 10.
In the Tofana region we exploded a
mine which destroyed the enemy's de-
fences east Of Col de .3ois.
"On the lsonzo front our batteries
set IRE 20 encampments of the enemy
on the Iavercek. broke up an enemy
column in the ldria Valley and caused
explosions near the Church of Santa
Maria in Tolmino.
Hostile aircraft dropped bombs on
Latisans. causing a fire, which was ex-
,insushed quickly. Our air squadrons
on July 10 bombarded Tione, in
Giudicsria Valley, and on July IL the
enemys camps at Monte Rover. north
east Of Lavarone. Our aeroplanes re-
turned safely"
To-day's Austrian communication
reads:
"On the Italian front we repulsed
strong attack on Monte Rasto, south
Of the Sugana Valley"

Germans Too Busy
TO Describe Fight

Berlin, July l2.-Battling Of the moS
desperate nature is going on along the
front in Picardy, but the only news
available here is that contained in the
German Official bulletins. The German
correspondents at headquarters are
studying the bulletins as industrIously
as the neutral correspondents IN Berlin
and are producing about as little inde-
pendent news of the big offensive.
Members of General Won Falken-
hayn's staff arriving directly from
headquarters could give only a general
idea of the furious nature OF the nght-
ing. con6ru. ng the English press re-

vichi was granted, and heavy fighting
has not yet been resumed.
A dispatch from Berlin tells Of the
astonishing use of Russian cavalry on
the front south Of the Pinsk swamps
Masses Of horsemen have been used
against the trenches and unbroken
infantry under conditions which would
make these tactics appear the height
OF madness.
An explanation Of this has been re-
ceived in Berlin, showing that there is
certain amount of method in this
madness and that the Russians have
devised new tactics, which are employ
ed, not to press home an assault, but
to advance a line Of skirmishers rap
idly across the danger zone before the
actual charge is started.
The role Of the cavalry is played
when the infantry lines reach a point
some 500 yards from the Austro- Ger
man trenches. A swarm of cavalry in
widely extended lines is then flung for
ward through the intervals Of the in
fantry lines. The horsemen dart for
ward at headlong speed. Soon they
fling themselves to the ground and open
rapid fire against the enemy.
The Cossack horses are trained to
participate in this manpuvre and lie
down at the word Of command and form
a living breastwork for the riders. Un-
der cover of the heavy fire from the
dismounted horsemen, the infantry
lines advance across the intervening
country.
Horses Maddened In Charge.
Men or horses, maddened BY excite
ment, often refuse to halt at the des-
tined position, but tear on against the
trenches and entanglements in an un-
premeditated charge.
The Cossacks are being largely used
in attempts TO force slightly guarded
river crossings, though the Russian
pioneers have devised a new scheme
for the crossing of the infantry. where
more resistance is looked for. Long
slender RATS are moored along the
banks of the narrow rivers with which
this swamp country is intersected.
concealed by overhanging bushes. At
the proper moment the upstream end
Of each raft is released and the cur
rent swings il across the river, forming
a series Of narrow bridges for storm
ing parties.
To-night's Russian official statement
says
"Our artillery dispersed Germans
who were attempting to bring artillery
against the Ikakul works. In the sec
tor of the Tsyherkassy farm, south of
Krevo, the Germans, supported by a
violent artillery fire, took the offensive
but were repulsed by our counter at
tack.
"On the Stokhod there were artil-
lery duels. In the region Of the village
of Kochovka the enemy attempted to
approach the Stokhod, but was repulsed
by our fire.
An earlier announcement reads:
"On the whole front, from Riga 70
Polessie there was intermittent artil-
lery and rife fire. German aviators
dropped bombs on the station of Zami-
rie and the town of Niesvij. where
several houses were set on fire.

on River.

London, July 1.-THE situation on
the Eastern front has shown little
change since yesterday. The battle
continues along the Stokhod River
with the same determination to win
animating the opposing forces. The
Germans are reported TO be bringing
up all possible reinforcements and
guns in an endeavor to save Kovel,
against which the Russians are ad-
vsncing along two railway lines.
Russian detachments failed in an
attempt to establish themselves on the
left bank of the river near Janowka.
German forces were driven back over
the stream after crossing it near
Grouehivka.
In this sector the Teutons have
taken 2.7oo prisoners in the last two
days. while the Russians bagged 76o
OF the enemy's troops on Monday.
Big Blow Expected.
The heavy fighting along the Stok-
hod apparently is merely an earnest

persistent and desperate campaign OF
General Brussilof to reach this I'M

Of losses.
The retirement. according to advices
from Austrian headquarters, was LOT

old position, and if material and units
were to be saved the retirement over

London. July I2.-The fotlotcn,G
official statement Wds issued to
night:
The day was marked by sharp local
fehting in certain areas in Mametl
Wood. We captured all the ground lost
last night and now hold the whole
wood.
We also made some progress in
Trones Wood. The very large number
~ German dead in this vicinity shows
the costliness of their attack last
night.
Two heavy German attacks against
Contalmaison completely broke down
under our fire.

soldiers.
"On the Baltic our torpedo boat de-
stroyers during operations In the Gulf

The German statement follows:
"An attempt TO cross the Dvina,
made by weak Russian forces west OF
Friedrichstadt and attacks south OF
Narocz Lake were frustrated.
Russian Charge Repulsed.
"On the Stokhod front the position
generally is unchanged. Russian de-
tachments which attempted to estab'
lish themselves on the left bank OF the
river near Janowka were attacked. Not
a single man of these detachments got
away from the Southern bank. At this
point and on the KovelRovno Railroad

oners.

Wood, in both of which localities the
Germans regained some ground, all
these attacks were beaten off with loss
to the enemy. -,
Between the main battlefield and the
sea we have been actively engaged IN
bombarding the enemy's positions and
raiding his front line. Southeast OF
Loos q party of Royal Irish Fusiliers
penetrated the enemy's trenches at
point where they were strongly held,
and remained there for twenty minutes,
during which time heavy fighting took
place in the trenches. Many Germans
were killed. Our casualties were
slight.
Opposite the Hohenzollern redoubt
two companies of Seaforth Highland
ers forced their way into another por-
ton of the enemy's trenches after a
stiff fight Many Germans were killed
or wounded. hostile machine gun
was destroyed. Several dugouts
crowded with the enemy were success
fully bombed and some prisoners were
taken.
Several combats in the air took place
on July 10, as a result of which we
destroyed one German machine, while
one of our own machines was brought
down by the enemy's gunhre.
New-York tribune., 1916-07-13

The bombardment continued with great
violence in the whole region of Sou
vile, Chenois and La Laufee.
"In Lorraine an attempt against one
of our trenches east of Badony .llers
was completely repulsed."
An earlier French statement read:
"In the Champagne district we capt

under our fire.
"On the right bank Of the river a

pulsed completely. :,
"An English biplane was compelled
to land within our lines near Athies

plane fell to earth near Soyecourt. An
other was brought down by our anti
aircraft guns near Chattancourt. In
