Enemy Artillery B atters American Trenches in Toul Sector in Repayment for Casing Operation
AUSTRIANS FAILING
Additional Ground Recap tured From Invaders in Hill Section; German and Aus trian People Desperate

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, June 20, (By the As sociated Press).-At dawn this morning American troops stormed German trenches and machine gun nests in front of Cantigny, in the Montdidier sector. Those of the German garrison who remained to fight and carry out their orders to hold the positions were killed by rifle fire and machine gun fire and bayonet.
 The Americans also took prison CTS.
 The enemy artillery has been more active on the Foul sector since the heavy gassing to which the Americans subjected them yes terday. The infantry action has been confined, however, to an st- tempted raid, in which only sixty men took part, in spite of the Ger man official statement, which said they had penetrated the American lines at Seicheprey.
 The Germans have thrown about 5000 shells along the Amer ican front in the WOeyre.
 The American artillery put down a heavy box barrage on the rear of the enemy positions. A few minutes later the infantry swarm ed over the top and rushed the trenches. Some of the Germans had tried to escape through the barrage, crossing to their rear, but few of them got through, for num- erous German dead were found later.
 Prisoners captured declare that they had orders to hold on at all costs, and this was apparent by the desperate manner in which they fought. The battle was short but deadly, for the enemy posi- tions were swept clean of Ger mans. The official report says that a great many Germans were killed.
 One machine gun nest contain ing eight men which had been sprinkling Cantigny for some days, was blown up by a direct hit from a trench mortar bomb.

O'LEARY TRIES

Overworked Insanity Plea is Brought to Fore in Effort to Save Editor of Sim Fein Paper ]
By Review Leased Wire)

NEW YORK, June 2O-While shield ing his brother, John J. O'Leary, from charges of criminally aiding his escape from trial last month for alleged viola tion of the espionage act, Jeremiah A. O'Leary. the Sim Fein leader pictured himself as on the verge of nervous collapse when he fled to the west May '. He was laboring under the Obses- sion. he indicated. that government agents had entered into a conspiracy to have him sent to prison.
 Deserted by his counsel, Henry A. Wise, who had been advised by gov ernment agents, the Sim Feiner as- serted, not to connec; himself with the case as it might jeopardize his professional reputation, Jeremiah A. O'Leary said he became convinced he could not obtain other advisors who could defend him properly and that this so preyed on his mind that he became thoroughly disorganiZed."
 Against the advice of his brother. the witness said, he left New York with Arthur Lyons, an employe of his law office, for St. Louis and there de- cided that he would not return ito he puDliC hou been so "poisoned' through ''prej- udiced" newspapers, he declared that his trial, had he returned, would have been political hippodrome for the newspaper fiends."
 Throughout long cross eXamina- tion, OLeary reiterated his statement that there had been no colusion be- tween himself, his brother and Lyons relative to his flight. He declard John was givn the impression that his broth CT had gone to Newburgh, N Y., to fish, rest and recuperate and that he intended returning for trial.
 An hour or so before train time, O'Leary declared, he was persuaded by Lyons not to go to Newburgh. but to accompany Lyons to Reno, New, instead.
 He had arranged, O'Leary testified, that Lyons should represent him in the trial of a divorce action at Reno and this was the object of his assistants trip. Lyons took the bull by the horns OLeary said, bought two tick cts for St Louis without consulting him and then prevailed upon him to go west
 The defense laid much emphasis on testimony tending to show that O'Leary, since his return from Sara, Wash, Tuesday in custody of federal officers had no opportunity of confer ring with his brother, his counsel or others interested in his behalf relative to the testimony he would give today. Then Earl B. Barnes. the assistant dis trict attorney prosecuting the case, elicted from the Sim Feiner a state ment that he had read in this morn ing's New York American in an inter- view with T. B.

To all outward appearances the Au- strian offensive in the Italian theater thus far has met with failure all along the front from the Venetian Alps to the Adriatic sea.
 In the hill region additional ground has been recaptured from the invaders, while along the Piave river, where intensive fighting is in progress, at some points with fluctuating results, the balance seems to sway in favor of the Italians.
 Southan d east of Asiago the French and Italians have retaken Pennar, Bertigo and Costalunga, past which the Austrians had hoped to push their front and gain the Astiago river val ley which leads to Vicenza on the plains below.
