WASHINGTON". March . Renewed
possibilities of a new Austria-Hungarian
drive on the Italian front are
Indicated in Italian official dispatches
received here today.
important movements of enemy
troops were effected during February.
Formation by the enemy of a new
tactical group similar to that adopted
for the offensive of November last, has
been detected by the Italians.
l-ong columns of troops are still
making toward Valdastlco, Laraglna
and Giudicarla and there Is an in
creasing concentration back of the
enemy lines of artillery from the Rus
sian fronts.
The best Austrian army leaders have
been sent to the Italian front and It
appears that General Koevess. who dis
tingulshed himself In the Balkans and
enjoys the confidence of General von
Hindenburg. Is at present in the Ksl-
augana sector. General Conrad is
acting as advisor to the high command.
Many Gemsaaa Desert-
Refugee Italian soldiers and peasants
from the territory occupied by the
enemy say that In the face of the
stiff resistance of the Italian army, the
morale of the enemy was greatly
shaken and many German soldiers de
serted and sought refuge In the moun
tains. Several thousand ot the desert
ers were rounded up.
WITH THE AMERICAN TROOPS IN
FRANCE. March t. (By the Associated
Press.) American troops at still an
other place on the French front have
been raided by Germans, who were re
pulsid with losses.
This is the first time permission is
given to mention this engagement. The
American forces entered the battle line
In a certain place in Iorralne. Trie
French commander congratulated the
Americans on their behavior.
The foregoing is confirmation of the
French official statement of March 5,
which said that a German attack on
trenches hold by American forces in
Iorralne on the night of March 4 was
repulsed.
I.ONDON. March t. The Germans are
still adding to the number of their
divisions on the western front. General
F. H Maurice, chief director of mili
tary operations at the War Office, de
clared In his weekly talk with the As
soclatcd Tress today.
Allies Namerleally Mroager.
The Germans now have 16 divisions
more than the allies In the west, he
said, but this did not mean that they
were In superior strength, as the allied
divisions were numerically larger.
General Maurice raid the entente
forces still held the superiority In
rifles, guns and aircraft, but that this
superiority was diminishing.
"I have said heretofore that a Ger
man offensive was not immediately
likely because the Germans required
time to prepare new troops." said Gen
eral Maurice, but these major pre
parations are now more or less com
plete and the enemy can attack when
ever he completes his local prepara
tions.
"It Is now to these local preparations
we must look for Indications of an ap
proaching attack. These indications an
not always easy to gauge. we nave
now reached a stage when you cannot
prophesy. If the enemy wishes to at
tack there is nothing to prevent."
PARIS. Tuesday. March S. Tho Ger
mans persist in declaring that they are
not aware of the presence of American
troops on the western front, writes
the correspondent of the Temps with
the British army in France. This, he
says, may be pretense or the result of
what they have -been taught, but all
prisoners, officers and privates, taken
the last minor operations when asked
about the Americans invariably reply:
Yes, we know there is a division in
France and there never will be more.
That is not enough to scare as."
