Several German patrols which -attempted last night to approach the American lines in the Marne sector were smashed by the accuracy of the American machine gun fire. One German patrol was almost wiped out. Two German prisoners, who, after escaping from a de tention camp 100 miles to the rear of the American front six days ago, wandered through woods and bushes and swam rivers in the night time, were captured last night in the American lines. The prisoners said they had traveled with comparative ease until they approached American territory where it became so hot they could not cross to the German lines.

The Austrian pincers are not closing upon Italy with the precision of last Oc tober when they forced hack the Itnlian armies of (ieneral Cadorna from the Julian Alps to the Piave river and from the northern mountain regione almost to the plains of Vcnetia. In fact, they do not seem to be closing at all.

British Throw Enemy Back on Their Sector, While The French Hold Their Lines Intact. Austrian Offensive is Checked by the Allies ! " Italian Army Headquarters. June 18. (By the Asso- j ! ciated Press.) The Italians, with their French and British allies, are successfully resisting the Austrian onslaught and are counter attacking vigorously everywhere. In addition, there is acute watchfulness for all enemy movements either in the Bretna river area, the mountains or toward the plains. Whether the enemy effort upon Montello plateau is an attempt to move toward the rear of the famous Monte Grappa key to the Italian mountain positions, or else to menace the Venetian plains and the city of Venice, it is certain that the Austrians are fighting desperately to hold what they have so far attained. The Italian command feels that while the first great at tempt to advance has been blocked, each day will bring new efforts and with each effort the fighting will be more arduous.

French Break Up Massed Assaults. Paris, June 18. (Havas Agency.) After violently bom barding the French positions on the Asiago sector of the Italian front, telegraphs the Havas correspondent at the Italian headquarters, the Austro-Hungarians attacked today in mass formation. The French everywhere broke up the as saults and completely maintained their line. Prisoners were taken, important material was captured and considerable losses were inflicted on the enemy.

The failure of the Aus trian offensive in the mountains, the most critical sector, is shown in Italian official statements. It is believed that the Italians have every prospect of restoring the positions on the Piave, where alone the enemy scored some success. The British hold the post of honor in the mountains, and how well they rose to the occasion is proved by the remark of a correspondent "that the results of the enemy attack sug gests that it was the British who carried out the most suc-i cessful offensive." The Austrians undoubtedly hoped to sweep into the plains and crush Italy, but the latter's achievement in resist ing the first onslaught is assurance that she is capable of de fending her position.
