ITALIANS SILENCING THE ENEMY'S FORTS.
STRONG AUSTRIAN POSITIONS IN FRIULI. (Received Ma; 31. 11.35 p.m.) Rome May 31. on the eastern frontier of the Trentino, consist chiefly of artillery duels. The Austrians occupy the best positions, but the Italians are silencing one after another, the enemy's forts dominating the valley near Settecomuru, also the Adige and Sugan* valleys, leading to Trent. The Austrians on the Friuli frontier have long been strengthening v nth numerous guns the position on the left bank of the Isonzo, commanding the forts, and also strongly hold several points on the right bank covering the torn of Corizia. Heavy rains have transformed the rivers into raging torrents.
