r. ONION, May ,2--(Associa-
IL ted Press )--Austria's inter
nal troubles are growing for the
spirit of unrest and dissatisfaction
has reached the army where. it
has taken the form Of dcsertions
showing how tremendously weak
ened is, the morale.
From its correspondent at ltal-
ian headquarters the Daily Mail
has learned that bohemian troops
are leaving the Austrians and are
going over to the Italians to fight
against Austria. Already the first
detachment that came over has
been equipped and is wearing the
Italian uniform.
1t is thought that this diSsatis-
faction among the Bohemian SOL
diers, emphasized by the whole
sale descrtions that are reported,
explains the delay in. the launch
ing OF the expected u Austrian
offensive on the Italian front
which many expected to see start
cd in connection with the German
offensive on the Western front.
There we're several DAYS OF heavy
artillery assaults with some in
