THE ITALIAN FRONT.
An Italian official says: We entered trenches fronting Mont Divalbella. We set en fir©, shelters and blew up a large ammunition dump in the Toule region. There is somewhat intense artillery activity from the As'tico to the Piavo. A British party south of the Asoa River, in a successful coup-de-main, inflicted considerable losses and brought back prisoners. Attempted enemy attacks at Vallaras and the Atsico Valley were arrested by fire. Official advices from Rome indicate that an Austro-German offensive against Italy will begin in a few days. More than 60 divisions are concentrated on three distinct lines. The enemy aro bringing up their best troops in pionaration for ambitious objectives, but the Italian morale is splendid, and the leaders aro confident.
