ITALIAN? XONE OP WAR, tin® ^|16,— The good news from the battle vj front has brought a very visible efyjfect in relieving- anxiety and briglitenIjlllkff the spirits of the Italian people. 3j: The heroic resistance of the whole fijArmjr rightly be felt to have fttot^it®d out the episode^of Caporetto, even the brilliant naval exploits of Com.^Jinander.s Marian Pellegrini and Iuigri

Rizzo cancoled the smarting sense o defeat that lingered ever since the ill .. .' fitted sea fight at Lissa. :«j It is confidently believed that the -f, 1 'worst phase of the Austrian onslaught y Lis now over. Each racoeeding dispatch j, from headquarters tends to show that

|n»e situation is becoming criticaL Jt Neither at San Dona "»M»r Mustle,

Where the struggle assumed tremenll#Mls Intensity, nor anywhere else JjUoaff the Piave has the enemy been y* able to enlarge his bridgeheads. The £•1 deepest point of penetration from the right bank of the river is restricted to o and one-half miles. i, The enemy's advantages gained Jn rltoe .vicinity of Montello have not cnly been arrested, but also reduced, for the Italian line between Ciano and

Andrea has been pushed forward past Casa Serena, Ave miles eaevward. On the Alpine tableland, Rafea peak -1 Md Costa Lunga ridge, east of AsiagO, (has been wrested from Von Hoetbenr[ 1 doiTs grasp, our allied contingents i sjweeptng the heights right and left of

by the raging current of the improbridges, boats and rafts. Large Bumbers were also killed in the act 4t crossing or shortly aftei' reaching '•the Italian side by the pitiless Are from the interallied aircraft to which their exposed or cooped u^, positions were tendered frightfully vulnerable. Two I Hungarian battalions landed just as

[two Italian battalions were ready for a f' connter attack. A clash of forces ensued, finishing fit a series of hand-to-hand duels to death. w

Dressed Like Itaflene.

The Italian general commanding on

fthe Montello sector told me the enemy p- had been trying to push forward detaehments in Italian uniforms to mix

With the Italian troops. The same thing occurred on the i k»w«tr Piave, where a number of Austrian spies in civilian clothes trying to pass themselves oft as Italian peasants had been caught and shot.

AH the wounded agreed that explosive bullets had been freely used by the enemy*. Many of the ghastly Injuries to hands and legs which one saw brought in could be due to no other cause. One wounded Italian even had a story of Austrians screening their machine guns by sending men ahead pretending to be deserters.

CATHOLIC ARCHBISHOP HOT A PROHIBITION SYMPATHIZER

Denies Use of Churches In Milwaukee Diocese For Prohibition Meetings.

MILWAUKEE, Wis., June M.-^Tn a letter sent to all pastors in the Milwaukee Roman Catholic arch diocese and made public here 'today, Archtoyshop S| G. Messmer forbids priests under his jurisdiction assisting in prohibition movements and denies to prohibitionists use of church property for holding meetings. The letter follows In part:

"It becomes more evident from day to day that there is a strong sectarian power back of the present prohibition movement. We may not deny that many Catholics, priests among them, are actuated by good motives and acting in good faith in this matter, but they fail to see the absolutely- false principle underlying the movement and the sinister work of the enemies of the Catholic church trying to profit by this opportunity of attacking her in the most sacred ministry entrusted to her. "For this reason I hereby positively forbid all pastors of parishes in this arch diocese from allowing any prohibition speeches to be given on any premises, be it the church, the school or a hall.. "On the other hand this is a most opportune time to preach on the Catholic vir^ie of temperance^ exhorting every one to practice true moderation in eating and drinking and even total abstinence from intoxicating drinks. "Prohibition fg

Italian resistance which held the enemy on the western bank and was gradually forcing him back to the river. It says the order to withdraw was glvi?n last Thursday and leaves the impression that the retreat was carried out unobserved by the Italians.

v Gwinmy Is Warned.

It has been reported that Baron Burian, the Austro-Hungarian foreign minister, told the German command that grave events, possibly revolution, would follow in the dual monarchy if an Austrian attack, which Germany insisted upon, was repulsed. There have ben no reports that the disorders and unrest within the Hapsburg empire have ceased. In fact, late news dispatches give scant intelliganca the state of affairs in Austria,

If the Austrian offensive was expected by the German command to relieve th© situation on the western frqnt, the Teuton strategists have had a bitter disappointment. Austria probably will be unable to take up a new forward movement on the piave for days at least. In fact th® Piave front appears to be stronger now than at the beginning of the present battle. Operations on the mountain front are still at a standstill and if Emperor Charles still desires to push his offensive against Italy, the next enemy attacks may come from this front unless the Italians continue their advance eastward from the Piave of which however, there are no indications at present.

Await Second Blow.

Along the front from the North sea to Switzerland the allied armies are awaiting another blow from the Germans. Premier JJoyd George has told the British house of commons that another gigantic enemy effort is coming within a few days, possibly within a few hours. The allies are ready to combat it
