his death.

Formed in Austria to
Stem Rebellion.
ITALIANS DEFEAT AUSTRIANS
By Associated Press

Aside from several sectors In the
region between Scissors and Rheims
and in Champagne near Mont Cor
nillet, little fighting of moment il
taking place. The French, continuing
their smashing tactics against the
Germans, now have retaken the
greater part of the territory lying
northeast of the Noisy farm in the re-
gion of VauXaillon, which the army
of the German crown prince captured
last week in attacks in which they
suffered heavy casualties under the
IRE of the French artillery and in
fantry. To the east in the region of
Furtebise and Craonne the violent
artillery duel continues and the
French guns have put down an at
tempted infantry attack by the Ger
mans.
Enemy Claims Success.
The German war office asserts that
east OF Mont Cornillet in Champagne
the French have been compelled un-
der heavy concentration of artillery
fire to evacuate ground they captured
from the Germans in two attacks last
week
Operations of Sir Douglas Haig's
army against the Germans in France
and Belgium have consisted entirely
in putting down attempted enemy
raids and answering fire of hostile
guns. There still is considerable ar
tillery activity on the part of the
Germans on various sectors in Bel
GUM. especially near Reninghe, Py-
pegaale and LiZerne, and lively hand
grenade fighting between the French
and the Germans near Steenstraete
and the ferryman's house.
There has been no resumption OF
the Italian offensive in the Trentino
region of the Austro-Italian theater,
but on the Asiago plateau. there has
been considerable artillery activity,
apparently with the Austrians the az
gressors. To the northeast the Aus
trians delivered an attack in the Cor
devo!e valley.
Italians Turn Turtle.
The Italians not only stopped the
attack, but themselves took the initi-
ativo and drove back the enemy, in
flicting heavy casualties on him.
The operations in Russia and Cali
cia still have not risen in importance
above patrol engagements and recon
naissances.
Likewise in the Macedonia theater
only small engagements by patrol
parties have been reported. altho east
of Lake Presba the enemy has vio-
lently shelled entente trenches
