RY ED L. KEEN.


London, Nov. 5.-General Won Mac
kensen has successfully resumed his
great drive into Italy, according to
both Rome and Berlin statements to-
day. He has crossed the Tagliamento
river north OF Pinzano, taken 5000
prisoners (according to the Berlin ver-
sion) and in the belief Of military ex-
perts here is beginning his pretentious
operation of attempting to flank the
Italians on the right, or east bank of
the waterway.
MOVE EXPECTED.
The German success of today is the
first move in what had been expected
all along by the Italian strategists.
The right wing of the German invading
army early in the great drive attained
greater momentum than the other sec
tions of the front and was consequently
in an admirable position to strike in
one of Mackensen's favorite maneu-
vers-the thanking plan.
North of Pinzano," as mentioned In
the Italian official report, means the
German Austrian forces crossed some-
where in the comparatively broken
country. The foothills of the Carnic
Alps flatten away into the Fruili plains
at Pinzano and here the Tagliamento
to it's usual course Of sluggish water
way dotted with islands, is confined to
single rather narrow channel. Pi-
zano is 16 miles distant from Udine.
There is bridge at this point.
