tally Now 24.-The battle Of the noun
.asns is raging with unexampled vio-
lence. The Italians again hold the
Monte Tomba and Monte Pertica posi-
lions which they lost Thursday night.
The losses have been very great, but
thu enemys far exceed those Of the
Italians.
on the outcome Of the mountain
sattle depends the result Of the enemy's
-A,reatest effort to break thru the ltal-
ian's lines to the Venetian plain. The
re.apture OF the italian positions on
Monte Tomba was accomplished by
succeasion Of brilliant charges which
Ayed tho snows red and left the ground
pi,e4 within enevy dead. Monte ferdica
was lost and won four times. the
enemy finally being thrown back.
Austro- German Losses Enormous.
Altl1o the losses have been terrible
those OF the enemy are by far the
greater owing to the condition Of the
fiRhting field and and the desperate
heroism OF the Italian troops.
The battle. which had been gather
inE. force in the last few days, broke
IN full fury early Thursday and RACED
thruout the day, the night and FIJI
day. The first blow was struck at
Monte Pertica, where dense masses or
enemy infantry were hurled against
the Italians. The fighting was ex-
tremely violent.
Perdica was lost, then retaken. then
lost again and then retaken again IN
such q whirlwind of enthusiasm as sell
dom las been seen before.
Greatest Blow at Monte Tomba.
But the enemys greatest blow was
aimed at the strategic key Of Monte
Tomba and Monte Monfeneras Here
the full force Of the two divisions one.
German, the other Austrian. was hurled
in a furious attack on the Italian right
wing. in an effort to turn the wing and
cut OF the army from its line Of COM
municaton along the Piove. Now came
one Of the bloodiest struggles OF the
war, which went on all Thursday and
Friday. with steady succession of at
tack and counter attack. What the out
come will be can not be foreseen, but
the Italian arms have again covered
themselves with glory and snatched
back victory when it was hanging in
the balance.
Havoc Fearful, Bravery Great.
A high commanding officer Of the
field has summarized the fury of the
present battles by declaring he could
not say whom to commend for bravery
as the distinction would require
medal orNthe entire force engaged. A
distinctive ribbon for bravery. he said.
would stretch across the Italian front.
The references in these dispatches
to the fearful havoc among regiments,
brigades and divisions should be inter-
preted with the knowledge that Ital-
ian units Of organization are Of such
size that the reduction Of an Italian
regiment to 900 or 400 men means that
upwards Of 1000 have fallen. From an
authoritative source this information Is
given In regard to the Italian units:
A battalion is 1000 men in four COM
panies. A regiment is 5000 men Of three
battalions. A brigade is 5000 men OF
two regiments. A division Is two or
three brigades An army corps Is two
or three divisions.
It Is the regimental formation Of 81
600 men which makes 1t appalling
aghting when only 300 or 400 remain.
