One year ago the Italian armies
were streaming westward IRON the
lsonro with a great military disaster
imminent. Today the Italians, with
British and French divisions fighting
with them and with American contln-
gents in reserve. are pouring through
what appears to be a breach in the
Austrian lines east OF the Piaye river.
Valdobbiadene has been captured,
Conegliano has been occupied and
along a line stretching south 10 the
Treviso-Odcrzo railroad the allies arc
moving steadily ahead Prisoners num-
beriug more than 1000 have been TAX
en- during the fighting.
Austrian Resistance Fails.
Reports from the Piaye front eem
to INDICATE that, after TIE first rush
OF theAllies, the Austrian resistance
weakened greatly and there are indi-
cations that along the center OF the linz

The sweep of the allies eastward ap'
pears to have gained momentum during
the past day and it seems probable
that the next few days may see thu
whole Austrian army fronting the Piayt
in retreat toward the Tagliamento.
Not only are the Austrian lines yield

Rome. President Poincare and a
number of ministers received the

the people who swarmed the square
