At var ious points the allies have placed iu Jeopardy thy enc mjr'i tt nure of cer tain parts or the line and have ex tended their "control over, wide sec tors of the front. This was the notable result of the attack near Helleau Wood on the Marne front, by the Americans on Wednesday. . They did not seek to break through. the German line.' but wanted, to reach high ground which wonld command the villages of Torcy and Rouresches. This ground is now securely in their possession. The French attacking -oulhwest of Sois-ops. on the Aisnc front, had the same object in view. Herman counter-attacks against the new French positions have been repulsed with heavy losses to the enemy. The liritfeh. on the Lys salient of the Flanders front, cut into the Ger man lines on Thursday and succeed ed In shoving the enemy from his po sitions on several little ridges of land to lowwr levels. There is reason for believing that preparations are now nearly com plete for a resumption of the Ger man drive. Jtist where the blow will fall is not known, but it is ex pected to eclipse the ferocity of the attacks of Cambrai and Aisne. An epidemic of influenza in the German armv it rerwvrtAr! anil thf together with the prevalence of typhoid, dys-l entery and other disease may delay the onset for a time. A week ago the Austrian began their flight across the Piave river from the western bank where they had received a sanguinary check at the bands of th Italians. It is pos sible now' to view the vent In Its true perspective and estimate the vic tory of the Italians as a great defen sive triumph. General Dial, the Italian commander la chieT, has not pursued the Austrians further than the Piave. except for the setting up of strong bridgeheads on the eastern banks of the river. y There is still danger of 'another at tack being launcher against Italy, this time from the mountain front and with German forces leading their allies in their attempt to force their path down into the Italian plains. For this reason, apparently. Genera.! Diaz is content to hold the Piave strongly and to wait, for the moment at least, any farther attacks against his vital mountain positions. The situation in Russia is obscure. While there are indications that the sway of the Bolshevik! may be near its end, there is no confirmation of J tne reports that tne government or Lenine end Trotzkv has ben over- thown. The same situation obtains ts to Silierla. where the llolshevlkl and the German and Austrian pris oners of war are- fighting againft the Oxrcho-SIovaks on the west and General Semenoffa army on the east. The emperor of Austria has re fused to accept the resignation of Premier von Seydler's cabinet ani he has called on parliament to meet on July 16. It has been said in re cent dispatches that the program to be laid before the Austrian parlia ment will he quite limited In scope. Mritisli and German torpedoboat fleets rft the Itelglan Toast had a brief encounter on Thursday evening bnl.when the Germans received re inforcments the British withdrew, without loss apparently having been Inflicted by either side.
