Austria Is Sending Large Bodies
of Men to the italian Front
For An Offensive.
EMPEROR IS PRESENT
Charles Is Accompanied BY His Chief
of Staff and High German and Aus
trian Army Officers-Western
Front Fairly Quiet.

In the mountainous region of north
ern Italy and along the Piave river
where the Allied forces have been
holding fast since last November after
the great Italian retreat from the
Isonzo, there is increased tension and
the long threatened blow may be
launched at any time.
Assembling Armies for Weeks.
For many weeks the Austrians have
been assembling the legions with.
drawn from the Russian and Ruman-
ian front for a drive at the Italian
armies, and it is believed it will not
ba long before the Central powers
will make another attempt to reach
the plains of Venetia, break through
the Allies lines and seek to bring
about a decisive combat in that the.
atre of the war.
Emperor Reaches Front. >e
Emperor Charles of Austria, accom-
panied by his chief of staff and high
German and Austrian army officers, is
at the Italian front, and the great
movement of troops in Tyrol and
Trentalo would seem to indicate vast
bodies of men are being taken from
other fronts to be hurled at the Ital-
ian positions.
The blow. it is generally believed,
will fall somewhere in the mountain
Gus section of the front, probably in
ti1e Lagarina and Astico valleys.
These sectors face the north, and
If broken, would permit the foe to
penetrate into the lower foothills of
the mountains, or even reach the
plains. If this should occur, the ar
mics along the Piave river would be
compelled to fall back, probably as
far as the .Adigo river. This would
entail the loss of Venice and vast
expanse Of country to the enemy.
Hope to Quiet Austrian Unrest.
The decision to launch an offensive
of grand proportions in Italy was
doubtless forced by political and eco
nomic conditions prevailing in Aus
tria. An offensive campaign that
yields gains of ground might serve
to still the elements seething through
out the dual empire, and would post
pone the day of reckoning that seems
in store for the rulers of Austria.
German domination of Austria is
becoming more complete as time goes
on. Tyrol and Bohemia have been
annexed for food administration pur-
poses, to Germany, but this move is
the grea: game of statecraft has
served only to deepen the chasm be-
tween the racial factions of Austria.
Fronts In France Fairly Quiet.
Bohemian troops have deserted
from the Austrian armies and have
Joined the Italians, and, if an often
sive is not launched, decentralization
of the Austrian forces may come
sooner than the outside world ex-
poets. ....
In the meantime, the situation on
the front in France ana Flanders has
remained fairly quiet. There have
been local attacks by the Germans
here and there along the line, but
nothing approaching general battle
have been reported. The Allies are
improving their lines and are waiting
for the Germans to make the next
move.
