Geneva, June 1S.-The enthus-

offensive has passed and a feeling
of profound detection reigns among
the Germans, according to a La
Suisse interview with a neutral
diplomat, who has just arrived in
Geneva from Berlin. The people at
home expected a quick victory from
the early reports in Official bulle-

The principal question asked in
Berlin last week was:
Have We entered Paris ,"
The economic situation in the in
terror of Germany, the diplomat de-
clared is becoming more and more
serious.
Germans now realize and virtual
ly admit that the constant arrival
of fresh American troops will turn
the tide of the war.
The diplomat concluded his inter

recent secret sitting of the reich
stag the question or autonomy for
Alsace-Lorraine was discussed Of
ficially for the first time since the

WAR SUMMARY

Anstria'S offensive against
Italy has been checked for the
moment ii not completely.
Fighting has stopped in the
Lake Garda region. where the
allied forces broke up the first
enemy blows.
Bitter fighting is in progress
along the PiaVe river. where
the Italians and allies are in
flicting heavy losses on the
AdStrlanS.
Counter attacks on large
scale are being made by the
Italians along the PiaVe. aud
the Austrians have been unab g
10 advance from the western
bank of the river.
Despite long preparation the
AustrO attacks in the north on
the AlsagO plateau and between
the Brenta and PiaVe river, col
Iapsed almost completely aS
soon as II met the firm Italian
and allied defense.
Elsewhere along the front all
efforts OF the AustrianS TO en-
large on the early gains of their
drive have met with failure.
Emperor Charles Is reported
at the front directing the drive
and thousands of troops are be-
ing sent into the TrentinO.
Further Austrian efforts may
be expected.
Activity on the front in
France continues on minor
scale.
American positions on the
Marne front are being bonn
barded heavily with gas shells
and there are signs that the en-

Yankees from the Belleau wood
and other ground recently
gained.
