Italian situation and Prospect Of

London, Oct. 3i.-Confidence Is
felt here that General Cadorna Will
be able to hold his own on the Isonzo
front. He Is bending every effort to
retard the forceful Austro- German
advance on the Isonzo front while
he effects a retirement to the strong
line OF the TaglIamento river. His
cavalry is reported today in close
touch with the enemy. who has been
further hampered In this forward
movement by the strong resistance
OF the italian rear guards and the
destruction OF the bridges over the
Isonso.
The capture by the Teutons OF
Udins. a city of $4,000. and former
Italian headquarters. has caused no
surprise. as the city was evacuated
some days ago. The Teuton drive Is
considered as much political a. mill
tary.
The italian lines have been bonn
barded for weeks past with bombs
filled with leaflets urging soldiers
to follow Russia's example and re-
treat. so a separate peace could be
mads.

Teuton troops are driving through
the plains Of venstia toward the

army is endeavoring to brsek
through the Italian defenses in the
Carnic Alps. attempting to outflank
the Tagliamento line.
The Italian cavalry is harsssing
the Teuton advance guard between
udine and Tagliament. Cadorna's
rear guards are doing notable work
in their AYorts to slow up the ad-
vance Of the Teuton troops. and are
making numerous stands, forcing
the Teutons to halt while the Ital-
ian cavalry harasses the advancing
columns.
The Berlin announcement says
the campaign is being developed In

General Cadorna has apparentsly

occupied positions south Of Tolmino.

Washington. Oct. 31.--The italian
situation and the prospect OF Ameri-
can aid was discussed at a confer
ence held today between Italian Am
bassador Count Cellere and Secre-
tary Lansing.
The Italian situation was discuss
ed at length by President Wilson
and his advisers at today's cabinet
meeting. discussion touching imme-
diate military aspects and the exten-
sion OF aid by the allies. Furnishing
OF supplies. especially coal. badly
needed for Italian munition factor
les, .s said to be regarded as this
country's particular work
While the administration shares
concern over initial success Of the
Teutonic drive, officials are said to
reject the opinion advanced In some
quarters. that even defeat for Italy
can shake the determination OF the
entente to persevere to victory.
It is felt that setbacks in Italy will
act as a spur rather than discour-
agement to the Italian government
and to the allies. There Is no opln-
ion that Italy viii break down In ad-
herence to the common cause.
Further advices concerning the re-
treat are anxiously awaited in off,
cial and diplomatic quarters. Army
officers as well as officials of the
Italian embassy appear to be entirely
confident that General Cadorna will
be able to hold the Teutonic forces
IN check on the new line at which
ne had prepared for a stand.
