AUSTRIANS PUSHED
4 MILES FURTHER
AWAYFROM VENICE

WITH THE ITALIAN ARMIES IN
THE FIELD, July S.-The latest
italian victory which pushed the Aus
TRANS back four miles farther from
Venice, was the result OF one of the
most stubbornly fought actions OF the
war, in the wet triangle of dykes and
mud-filled canals on the lower Piave.
The Austrians had strongly forth
fled every house, mill, and infrequent
dry spot in this region. Italian artil-
lery materially aided in the victory
by preventing the enemy bringing up
food from the mainland.
Thousands OF soldiers fought in
water up to their waists. often losing
their weapons and battling like print
tive men. with their hands and teeth
In many instances, Italian soldiers
with vaulting poles, leaped over the
wire entanglements in front OF ma
chine guns and knitted the Austrian
gUnners-
So far, more than 1900 machine
guns and six trench mortars have
been captured.
