London, Dec. 10.-In northern
Italy the Austro-German efforts to
penetrate the Italian mountain bar
rier have been suspended, but appar-
emily the attempt to break the italian
line is being renewed along the Piave.
Berlin reports a success near the
mouth of the river, in which the
bridgehead of Sile. at the edge of the
inundated district about eight miles
from the Adriatie and three miles
west of the main river bed, was cap
tured.
Reports from the Italian front
have minimized the danger OF any
movement by the Austro-German in
vaders along this section of the river.
and apparently the Italian force at
this point was not an important one
as the capture of only 200 prisoners
is claimed by the German staff.e
