emy Fail. to Make Any Impression on
Mountain Front Against Strong
Italian Defense.
|NE ASSAULTS ARE REPULsEO
Has Failed and Mourn Great
Losses.

While the greatest strategic danger
to the Italians lay in the assault on
their mountain defenses as major
Austrian success there would compel
withdrawal of the armies along the
Piave and probably evacuation OF
Venice and Treviso, the combined
British, French and Italian forces
have stopped the enemy in their
tracks.
The Huns, therefore, have shifted
their efforts to acquisition of II Mon
tello, the crest guarding the northern
end of the Piave line, and to the
marsh land along the lower Piave.
In both these areas the Austrians,
who are employing close to q million
men in the entire drive, have register
ed their greatest gains. They have
advanced "a maximum OF three miles
over II Monte1lo, occupying two-th1rds
OF the high land On the fifteen mile
front between Fossalta and the sea
they have penetrated four miles, reach
ing the Fossetta canal at a point
about midway between the Piave ana
Sile rivers.
Allied troops in the mountain re-
gion occupied Razea Pizzo, the helshts
southeast of Sasso and the spur OF
Costalunga, taking several hundred
prisoners.
Along the Piave attacks and coun-
ter attacks constantly alternated.
The latest Austrian claim is ao'VoV
prisoners and 120 guns.
