Italian HeadQuar. ers in NortLerr
Italy, June 1.-THE Italian and allied
armies are brav,ly sustaining the
weight OF the Austrian forces which
are attacking along the front of the
Italian theater from the northwest Of
the Asiago plateau eastward 10 the
Piave river and thence along that
stream to whore it joins the head
waters Of the Adriatic sea, . front Of
nearly 100 miles.
The AustrialS, having made extcn
sive preparations for the drive by
bringing up strong achievements in
e and guns, many Of them coming
from the former battle line in Ru'
mania and Galicia as a result of the
debacle in the east, Is using them
without stint in tie effort to debouch
from the mountain passes and cross
the Piave river and gain the Vene-
tian Plains. Everywhere the fighting
is OF an extremely s%anguinary charac-
ter, especially cast of the AsiaSo pla-
teau, in the Brenta valley and on
Monte Grappa.
In the initial struggle the enemy
succeeded in capturing several front
line positions in the mountain region
from the British, and also in crossing
the Piave. Counter attacks, however,
have restored all the positions in the
n,0nntotnc inn1,,dtnU fnrritnrv Tn a
depth of 1000 yards along a $500
yard front captured from the British.
At last accounts the allied troops
everywhere We strongly holding the
enemy and King Victor Emmanuel's
men were gall. ntly striving to throw
back the invaders across the Piave.
The Italians have taken more than
5000 Austrian prisoners, among them
eighty-nine officers.
As yet the Vienna war office has CIV
en- only brief mention to the battle
saying that the Austrian armies had
invade the Settle Comuni plateau, ly-
ing at an altitude Of 3,4O0 feet north
west of Asiago, and that up to noon
Sunday more than 10000 Italian Eng
lish and French soldiers and a consid-
cradle number of guns had been cap
tured.
With the commencement of the long
expected Austrian offensive, the fight
ing in France has simmered down al
most to subnormal, except southwest
of Scissors, where the French have
delivered several violent attacks
against the Germans holding territory
captured last week. Where the enemy
a week ago was throwing thous-
ands upon thousands Of men
against the allied lines between
Montdidier and Noyon, Sunday say
him worn out with his useless efforts
and his forces sadly depleted through
men killed and wounded, unwilling or
unable further to give battle.
In Macedonia the operations daily
increase in importance. Along the
greater part of the front there have
teen heavy reciprocal bombardments
and Bulgarian troops several times
have endeavored to penetrate the al
lied lines. All their efforts, however,
met with i'll success.
