Paris, June 20.—Standing firmly be- 1
fore the war-stricken city of Rhelms,
the French have chocked a new Ger
man drive, launched Tuesday night,
five days after the offensive on the j
Montdidier-Noyon line came to a halt
In the fighting the active battle front
has. been extended to a point five
miles southeast of the cathedral city.
The German artillery Tuesday eve
ning began a heavy bombardment be
tween Vrigny, west of Rhelms, to the
village of La Pompelle, on the north
bank of the Vesle river east of that
city. Three hours later the Teutonic
infantry stormed out of their trenches
to begin the assault. According to
the official statement issued at Paris,
the Germans were nowhere successful
in their attempts to enter the French
lines, being repulsed with heavy
losses.
With the Italian Armies in the Field,
June 20.—The enemy has failed to
make any impression on the mountain
front, and the fighting is centered at
Montello and along the Piave.
The Austrians are constantly throw
ing in reinforcements and are fighting
hard to pierce the Italian river lines.
The Italians counter immediately
after every enemy attack. On the

the Austrian stormers lie dead before
their original trenches. The Italians
repulsed nine assaults with fresh
troops on the heights of Mount

consulates there by invading Turkish
troops was reported to the State De
partment by the American minister at

Age Limits of 18 to 45 to Put 5,000,000
Men in Field.
Washington.—The draft age limits
will be extended probably to 18 and 45.
Secretary of War Baker has been per
suaded that this step is necessary. He
announced that he will approve any
change in the selective service act nec
‘essary to raise an army of the re
quired size. y
American and allied military lead
ers now are convinced that the United
States must place an army of at least
5,000,000 in the field If victory is to be
won. This will be possible with the
proposed extension of the age limit.
Eearly reports on the results of the
reclassification of men by local boards
indicate that more than 250,000 men
will be added to class one by this
means, as against the original estimate
of 200.000.

Italian Army Headquarters, June 19.
—Approximately 1,000,000 Austrians
have been burled against the Italian
front. Losses which are described as
frightful have been inflicted upon the
Austrians in the areas where the prin
cipal fighting has taken place. But
the Austrian pincers are not closing
upon Italy with the precision of last
October, when they forced back the
Italian armies of Gep. Cadorna from
tjie Julian Alps to the Piave river,
and from the northern mountain re
gions almost to the plains of Venotia.
In fact, they do not seem to bo clos
ing at all. The upper Jaw In the Ve
netian Alps is stalled under the re
sistance of the British, French and
Italian forces, and the nether one
seems to lack the force necessary to
bring it across tbe Piave river and
push back the Italian troops which
are clogging its path.
In the Alps the Austrians have been
unable further to advance their lines
sioce their Initial onslaught last week.
Elsewhere from the ABiago plateau
sector eastward to the Piave river all
their attacks have quickly been re
pulsed by the allied troops, who, in
their turn, have delivered counter at
tacks, regained lost terrain, inflicted
heavy casualties on ths enemy and
taken a considerable number of pris
oners.
All along the Piave river from the
mountain passes fierce fighting is go
ing on, especially on the Montello pla
teau, in the region of the famous Zen
son loop and further south from Foj
salta to the marsh country around
Capo Slle, some twenty miles east of
Venice.
The Italian war office announces
that the enemy everywhere is being
held along the Piave. In the crucial
sector of the Montello plateau, which
bars the way from the northeast to
the Venetian plains, the Italians have
strengthened their positions on the
northern edge of the plateau and re
pulsed two enemy attacks to advance
on the northern border. Likewise to
the south, near Maaerda and Candelul,
attempts by the Austrians to effect
new crossings of the Piave were frus
trated with heavy losses.
The Austrian war office says the
number of prisoners taken In the fight
ing has increased to 30,000, and that
120 guns, in addition to mine throwers,
machine guns and war material, have
been captured.
The prisoners taken by the Italians
Monday at one point amounted to 1,-
550, which would bring their total and
those of the allies well in the neigh
borhood of 5,000.
Unofficial advices are to the effect
that the Austrians have thrown four
teen bridges across the Piave along a
front of about fourteen and a half
miles, between the Zenson loop and
the Conegilano railway bridge, but that
the Italians are heavily engaging the
enemy at all points and have the pon
toons under their gunfire.
Admiralty Salvages 407 Ships.
London. —From January, 1915, to
the end of May, 1918, 407 ships sunk
by the Germans in British waters
have been salvaged, according to de
tails of the work of the admiralty
salvage department. Up to Decem
ber, 1917, 260 ships were recovered.
In the present year to the end of
May 147 have been salvaged, the in
crease being due to improved meth
ods and not to the greater activity
of U-boats.
Increase Navy to 131,485 Men.
Washington.—As a result of the urg
ent representations of Admirals Pal
mer and Benson that the American
navy, particularly forces abroad, is un
dermanned and insufficiently officered
for battle service, the House of Repre
sentatives agreed to the Senate amend
ment increasing the navy personnel to
131,485 officers and enlisted men.

ITALIANS HOLD LINES
AGAINST GIANT NEW OFFENSIVE
LAUNCHED BY AUSTRIA
Emanuel’s Troops Backed Up by
British and French, Resist At
tack Magnificently.
Italian Headquarters in Northern
Italy, June 17. —The Italian and allied
armies are bravely sustaining the
weight of tho Austrian forces which
are attacking alonv the front of the
Italian theater from the northwest of
the Asl&go plateau oastward to the
Piave river and thcuce along that
stream to where it joins the head
waters of the Adriatic sea, a front of
nearly 100 miles.
Tho Austrians, having made -exten
sive preparations for the drive by ;
bringing up strong reinforcements in I
men and guns, many of them coming ;
from the former battlo line In Ru- j
mania and Galicia as a result of the
debacle in tbe east, is using them
without stint in tLo effort to debouch
from the mountain paoses and cross
the Piave rlvor and gain the Vene
tian Plains. Everywlioro the fighting
!s of an extremely sanguinary charac
ter, especially cast of the Asiago pla
teau. in the Brenta valley and on
Monte Grappa.
In the initial struggle the enemy
succeeded in capturing several front
line positions in the mountain region
from the British, and also in crossing
the Piave. Countor attacks, however,
have restored all the positions in the
mountains, including territory to a
depth of 1,000 yards along a 2,500-
yard front capt ’red trom the British.
At last accounts the allied troops
everywhere w- e strongly holding the
enemy and King Victor Emmanuel's
men were gall, ntly striving to throw
back the invaders across the Piave.
The Italians have taken more than
3,000 Austrian prisoners, among them
eighty-nine officers.
As yet the Vienna war office has giv
en only brief mentlod to the battle
saying that the Austrian armies had
Invade the Sette Comuni plateau, ly
ing at an altitude of 3,400 feet north
west of Asiago, and that up to noon
Sunday more than 10,000 Italian Eng
lish and French soldiers and a consid
erable number of guns had been cap
tured.
With the commencement of the long
expected Austrian offensive, the fight
ing In Franco has simmered down al
most to subnormal, except southwest
of Soissons, where the French have
delivered several violent attacks
against the Germans holding territory
captured last week. Where the enemy
a week ago was throwing thous
ands upon thousands of men
against the allied lines between
Montdidier and Noyon, Sunday saw
him worn out with his useless efforts
and his forces sadly depleted through
men killed and wounded, unwilling or
unable further to give battle.
In Macedonia the operations daily
Increase in importance. Along the
greater part of the front there have
been heavy reciprocal bombardments
and Bulgarian troops several times
have endeavored to penetrate the al
lied lines. All their efforts, however,
met with ill success.

June 17. —About 600 German shock
troops raided the American first-line !
positions at the village of Xivray, in
the Toul sector, early Sunday morn
ing. Some of the enemy got Into Xiv
ray, but were soon driven out. At oth
er points the Germans were badly
beaten. The attack began at 3 o'clock
in the morning after an extremely vio
lent bombardment. The Germans ad
vanced swiftly to tbe attack but were
met by a heavy fire. Those who pene
trated Xivray were forced speedily to
withdraw and elsewhere the enemy
was completely repulsed in hard fight
ing lasting more than two hours.
Several attempts by the Germans to
penetrate the American lines In the
Marne sector have been smashed by
the American machine gun fire.
While the gigantic Austrian attempt
to break through to the plains of Italy
has occupied the center of the stage,
•vents of importance may he taking
shape in the Somme battlefield. Hawy
firing by the German artillery in the
Ancre valley and northward to Serre
is reported by the British. It is on this

prelude of a resumption of the enemy’s
offensive in France
With the American Army in France.
June 18. —A German raiding party
took a few American prisoners on the
| Lunevllle front Monday morning. The
' enemy raid followed a patrol fight,
•in which the Americans penetrated
■ the enemy trenches, killing one Gor
man and wounding another.
The Germans Monday began using !
gas to a greater extent along this j
front thtfn they have done heretofore.
With the Italian Army, Juno 18.—Aus- ;
trlan troops which forced the Piave |
river have been driven back. The
fighting along the river is most in
tense. Nowhere else along the front
of attack has the struggle been so se
vere as on the Piave rtrer.
One of the most brilliant of the Ital
ian actions was the defense of the
Monte Moschin salient protecting the
important Brenta position. Here' the
Austrians suffered heavy losses, many
of their machine guns being captured.
The prisoners are ragged and 111-fed.
Many of tnem are undersized youths.
One of tnem remarked to the corre
spondent that he had not Interest In
the war. #
Not alone are the Italians and their
British and French comrades in arms
holding in check the Austrian offen
sive along the greater part of the 100-
mlle battle front from the region of
Trent to the Adriatic sea, but they
have turned aggressors on some of
the more important sectors, especially
in the mountain regions.
London, June 18. —On the front in
France the fighting activity has been
limited to local German attacks at Iso
lated points. Against the French along
the Matz river the enemy failed. The
same result attended a strong effort
to penetrate the American lines at
Xivray, east of St. Mlhlel. The Amer
ican artillery fire broke up the enemy
| attack with heavy losses and only a
if mall force reached Xivray, where it
I was wiped out by the Americans. An
| attempt to raid the new American sec
tor in Alsace Sunday was broken up
by machine gun and rifle fire.
The Lys salient in Flanders is being
j subjected to a heavy German artillery
