Counter Offensive

There are hints of a counter Of
iensive in reports from Italy The
success of the Italians two weeks
ago in the mountainous country to
the west of Lake Garda and the evil
dent concern of the Austrian COM
mand over an advance there may in
dicate, that if the Italians strike
back it may be along this part Of
the front. A success there would
isolate the Austrian forces fighting
east of Lake Garda, and turn the
right flank Of the enemy armies.
While the gigantic Austrian at
tempt to break through to the plains
of Italy, has occupied the center OF
the stage, events Of Importance may
be taking shape in the Somme bat

German progress along the Disc
river is being counterbalanced oy
French gains on the western wing
Of the battle front, which now has
been extended to northeast Of VII
lers- Cotterets. The heaviest fight
inc is taking place along the line
from Rubescourt 70 the juncture OF
the Matz and the Oise, with the
French, having the advantage on most
Of the sector.
Although tho enemy keeps up bis
desperate struggle west Of the Oise
he has been unable to gain except
at the juncture Of the Disc and the
Matz, where he has crossed to the
southern bank Of the Matz and &C.
cupied Melicocq, about five miles
north Of Compiegne. In the center
around Anthuil, al German attempts
have been broken up. On the left
the French have gained additional
ground, despite strong German coun-
ter attacks, between Belloy and st:
Maur. and have taken 400 additional
prisoners. The fighting along this
front continues to be of the most
sanguinary character.
No engagements have yet develop:
ed along the new French line east OF
the Disc. The French retirement was
made necessary because the German
gums dominated the forests south and
east of the Disc. The French line
now lies in front of the forest OF
Laieue. which is Immediately north
of the forest Of Compiegne.

On both occasions the Americans re-

the Aisne, although closely related,
have not been connected.
Allied airmen continue to harass
the area behind the German lines in
the Montdidier-Noyon region. Many
thousands of bombs have been drop

a score of enemy machines were prot

have made incursions into Germany.

Allied strategy and tenacity in
combat again have checkmated blows
by massed bodies of German troops
and the German Crown Prince has
given up his second offensive within
a month without either of them hav-
ing affected seriously the general sit
uation on the western front. Except
for artillery duels q lull has come to
the fighting sectors but new enemy
assault is expected soon.
In the offensive which began last
Sunday the Germans used large mass
es of troops on a short front. For
three days they gained ground and
were rapidly forcing their way south
ward along the Aisne. French re-
sistance stiffened and then the French
took the offensive. German efforts to
strike south of the Aisne and reach
the Disc south of Compiegne also fail
ed after slight gain.
South of the Somme and between
the Aisne and the Marne the artil-
lery fire has been above normal, but
there are no indications that the
Germans are prepared to renew their
offensive on either sector. Some mil
itary observers expect that the heav-
lest blow will come soon on the
Picardy field with the enemy again
attempting to separate the French
and the British and reach the coast.
Berlin reports the number of guns
captured isnce May 27 by the Crown
Prince as 1905. In the latest offen-
sive the Germans gained 1870 square
miles of territory, and captured 49,
900 prisoners, and $50 guns, the poor
est showing in any of the four major
movements since March 21.

forcing a passage between the VII
lers- -Cotterets forest and the Com
pieqne forest, and thus overcoming
the French resistance east of the O,se.
The German offensive west OF the
Disc is now in it's sixth day and the
enemy has made slower progress IN
the present movement than in any
of the other three he has carried out
since March 21. French resistance
has been growing stronger as the
days have passed and Thursday the
&C mans, despite heavy attacks
against the high positions around
Merry, were unable to gain and sui
fered severe losses from the French
fire. Along the Oise he has been
thrown back across the Matz and his
efforts to regain the south Of the
river have been unavailing.
South of the Aisne on front OF
three miles the Germans have pushed
back the French about one mile in
two days. Bitter fighting continues
in this region and the French resist
ance at Levarsine, Corey and Coeuvres
was powerful enough to prevent the
enemy from advancing further west:

in Levarsine, but have been unable to
complete the occupation of the vii

While attempting to outfank the
formidable natural barrier of the
Compiegne forest the Germans have
shown no desire to try frontal at
tack against the new French line
