THE AUSTRO-ITALIAN WAR
AUSTRIANS DISINCLINATION TO ATTACK. DRIVING THEM TO ACTION WITH GRENADES. Received May 24, 12 15 a.m. Rome, May 215, The Daily Telegraph’s correspondent states that throughout Tuesday the Austrians fought with elan, their own artillery driving them forward. Austrian grenades were plainly seen in one sector exploding amongst the Austrian rear tiles, who seemed disinclined to advance. The unfavourable results of the German offensive at Verdun are reacting on the spirits of the Austrians. Moreover, Italian artillery has seriously damaged the Ca ruio 1 e-Tren tiu o rai 1 w ay. The Italians continue to advance in the western Trentiuo, whither the enemy has despatched reinforcements, fearing the Italians’ progress may close the return route of nineteen Austrian divisions.
