London, Aug. 23.-The great often

Tolmino TO the head of the Adriatic
sea is progressing despite the stub
born resistance of the Austrlans and
the difficulty of the terrain.
Meanwhile, the British and French
forces in Belgium and on the sectors
of Lens and Verdun in France again
have made progress against the Ger
mans and also have held. notwith-
standing most violent counter-attacks
all the ground they won in recent
fighting.
On the eastern front, near the i'm

Baltic, the Germans have started
what possibly may turn out to be an
other big offensive and also are at
| tacking the Russian lines to the
southeast, in the vicinity of Dvinsk,
and further south, near Brody and

Already the Italian offensive has

made all along the line. Italian war

at the head, of, the gulf of Trieste
have switched their guns from the
battle line and showered shells upon
Trieste. the biz Austrian port which
is the objective of the Italians.
The Vienna war Office admits
