VITH FEW
AGAINST AUSTRIA
Initial Rush Netted Few Gains to Ecen Although Piave
River Was Crossed In Several Plac -Italian Counter
Attacks Won Back Most of Ground Loi Austrians Have
Sixty Divisions Engaged Along Hundred Mile Front But
1 . Have Not Succeeded In Gaining Any Material Advantage
- Up to Preent Time
With the Italian Armies in the Field, June 17.The
Austrian pressure is continuing strjngly on the whole
new battle front between the Asiago and the sea, vith the
greatest force exerted on both sides of the Brenta.
It is still possible that the line will flow backward and
forward, but the situation seems assuring.
- The enemy, with sixty divisions (720,000 men) has not
fcucceeded in passing the advanced areas south of Mont
tllo, where they succeeded in crossing the Piave in consid
erable numbers. There they are being gradually pushed
backward toward the river.
The Italian reaction on the lower Piave came more
quickly. The Austrians who crossed the river at several
points between Candela, Senson and San Dona Di Piave,
were counter attacked and driven back almost im
mediately. ; -The Austrians have been carefully trained for. the
drive. They are attacking with light equipment, then
opening out in storming formations, protected by arti
ficial fog. One of their objectives, it has been learned is
to reach, the plains southward of the mountains. They
also intended to reach Treviso the first day, an advance
of fifteen kilometers (about ten miles.)
London, June 17. "The Austrians
lost five men to our one," the war of
fice said today in' a report on the
Italian front operations.
"The enemy used 29 divisions (348,
000 men) 'between the Asiago plateau
and the Piave, f the 58 divisions
(690,000 men) employed on the whole
battle front.
"British airmen-havo destroyed sev
en bridgos. "
The twenty mile front from the Asi
ago plateau to the Piave river is held
jointly ty Pritish, French and Italian
forces. The British apparently occupy
most of the plateau region, while tho
French are in the Mont Grappa region
to the eastward. Italian troops evident
ly hold sectors between the plateau
ud the mountain, and Ibe-twecn the
mountain and fixe river.
Tho drive, which followed an intense
boimbardment between the Lngarjna
valley and the Adriatic sea, a distance
of about 100 miles, waa begun on the
seventy mile front between the Asiago
piateau and the sea. The line extends
eastward from the plateau to the Piave
liver in, the .vicinity of Snhusino then
follows the river southeastward to its
month. f - -
The Austrians succeeded in forcing
a crossing cf the Piave at Ncrvesa, 15
utiles southeast of Segusino and ten
miles north of Treviiso and at Fagaro
and imuslle, yespefctive!y, ten an
twenty miles from the sea.
Counter attacks initiated by Italian,
French and British troops all along
4he front Inter restored most' of the
ground yielded under the first shock.

AMERICA WILL AID
ITALY WITH TROOPS
Pledges Made by President
and Secretary to Italy Will
Be Redeemed
Washington, June 17. American
troop aid for Italy will bo forthcoming
soon. .-
With the Austrian offensive under
way, this fact developed today. In line
with the pledges of President Wilson
and Secretary Baker, United States
forces will take their places along with
the Italians and other allies. They will
not be vast in numbers, their purposl
is to show Italy, concretely, that the
United States is backing her. Ameri
can aviators and forces of other kinds
have been in Italy for some time, but
there has notheen any announcement
cf United States soldiers in the Italian
trenches.
The initial stages cif the offensive
caused no uiiitue alarm here today.
The Italian embassy's first messages
indicated that while the Austrians bad
made some progress, the counter at
tacks had developed quickly and satis
factorily. The unmistakably reassuring thing
about the struggle thus far was the
splendid resistance of 'Italians and
British. There will be no great yielding
such as- accompanied the previous Teu
ton smash, it is felt.
The Italian morale is satisfactory.
Infusion of British and French aid
the promise of earlj American troop
participation have had stimulating ef
fects. Military men gay that the Teuton
directors of this new 'offensive un
doubtedly are striving to cause .di
version from the -western front.
Italy, however, has sufficient mas
power, it is said, so that more troops
are not needed new.

DESPERATE TFFORT
Hindenhurg Would Force Italy
Out of War Before Amer
ican Pressure Is Great
By J. W. T. Mason
(United Press War Expert)
New York, June 17. Austro-Hun-
earv's offensive against Italy undoubt
edly- has been ordered 'by Utiidenburg
as a final despairing effort to weaken.
the allies through forcing Italy to with
draw from the war before America's
forthcoming offensive can b,e started,
Hindenburg has taken a blind chance
at his new blood spilling. To compel
Austro-Hungariaiis to slaughter them
selves in what Will almost certainly
prove a futile-adventure, is deliberate
ly to stimulate disastrous domestic con
ditions within the dual monarchy. For
the practically negligible possibility of
compelling Italy to sign a separate
peace Hindeiiburg is risking an upris
ing in Austria-Hungary against Ger
man militaristic rule. So great a gam
ble as this demonstrates that Hinden
burg realizes that time is fatally against
him and that Germany must win by
autumn or not at all.
The allies have been given splendid
opportunity to increase dissensions in
Austria-Hungary by holding fast along
the Italian front.
A slight gain of territory by the Aus-tro-Hungarians,
with the capture of a
few thousand prisoners, will never oo
accepted by Emperor Kail's subjects as
sufficient justification for a heavy
slaughter of Hapsburg troops. Tfc? Aus -
tio-Hungarian offensive apparently has
for Its immediate main object the cap
ture of Venice. The two railway lines
nearest to Venice, from ths Piave river
are being strongly held by the Italians
against powerful assaults. Venice is 15
to 20 miles away from the main enemy
attacks along the Piave. If the Austro-
Hungarians can cross the I iave in force
it will require stiffened fighting by the
Italians to save Venice, but for the
present ln08t "'0 enemy ale being
held on the eastern bank of th,, rivr.
Th capture of Venice, in itself, would
be without military value to the Aus-tro-Hungarians,
because nobody in Aus
ti'O-Hiiugary believes it would he retain
ed after the war.

TWELVE THOUSAND
PRISONERS TAKEN
IERNA REPORT
Capture of Caposile Also Re
ported Pushing Toward
City of Venice
Vienna, via London, June 17. The
Austrians have taken 12,000 prisoners
lii the Italian offensize, the Vienna war
offico declared today.
The capturo of Caposile, on the west
bank of the Sile river was reported.
" est of can Dona, on the lower
Piave, we have wrested more ground
from the enemy, capturing Caposile,''
the statement said.
"Our prisoners now total 12,000.
""On the mountain top fighting was
limited considerably owing to the misty
weather.
"West of the Brenta we maintained
the positions we had carried the prev
ious day."
San Dona Di Piave is ten miles from
tha mouth of the Piave. The railway
running southwestward to Venice
crosses the river at this point. Caposile
is four miles directly south.
The nave and Sue rtvcrB flow in a
more or less parallel course into the
Adriatic. They aro connected by
stream between San Dona and Caposile.
Below this there is marshy territory
extended southward, to tho coast.
After crossing the Piave at San
Dona, the Austrians evidently pushed
westward and flanked Caposile. The
latter town is only 14 myes northwest
of Venic. via airline.
In addition to the crossing at San
Dona, two other railways cross the
Piave and converge upon Venice. These
are made at San Andre and east of
Nervesa. The enemy crossed tho rivet
in the vicinity of these two places and
evidently is trying to push these rail
ways toward Venice. .
