Austrian forces on Wednesday of last week crossed the Italian fron tier for the first time since Italy threw in her fortunes with the En tente and began her battle for "Italia Irredentia.” In the most am bitious offensive undertaken by Aus trian arms since the beginning of Hm» war and the first distinctly offensive operation on the southern front, the dual monarchy is attempting to force n definite decision with the particu lar adversary. The military policy of the central powers has not changed since the days before August 1, 1014. On the Costabella and flew their flags for the first time over an Italian town. Costabella, twenty-two miles from Verona and-about the same distance f^om Vicenza, may be expected to constitute the advance has for one column, which will seek to push southward, and, falling to carry tha great fortified works which protect the two cities, at least cut the rail way 1 that connects them and has an important part in the support of the entire Italian line as far as the Isonzo. While the Austrian guna were tearing a way across the Lavarone plateau, held udder the fire of the frontier fortresses, and blasting a path over the Magglo ridge and down the Tarragnolo the Italians In the: famous Val Sugana were brought Into a desperate engagement. The Italians had reached up this valley from the frontier at Prlmo- lana as fa> as Borgo the first four months of the war and from Borgo they had undertaken during the autumn to seize the heights which rise from 5,000 to 8,000 feet on both sides of the valley. Desperate battles occurred for months above the cloud line and heroes were acclaimed day after day. Ho intense was the Austrian artillery uowtrary, (ircumstaiices have acoen-f-fire last week, however, and so dev i.iiiaigwfl iwsmdaa sumswwIkA*.,** la a 11* nu#m#lvk<» 4#n 4K*ne 4m 4 tuated the inate soundness of it. All the tactical and strategic plans of Berlin and Vienna took into con sideration the probability that in any war in which they might be engaged they would be forced to fight superior numbers and conduct their warfare on two fronts at once. This compelled them to plan for the concentration of their energies on one point at a time and by the expenditure of their -maxipium ef fort at that point deal with their opponents In detail. Their position on the inner lines of transport not only gave a great advantage to them in this respect, but vastly increased their chances of success. TliaS suo reiM has not come to them U not the fault of their strategy, but rather it is due to the une*pe<-tcd strength by which they were opposed. The main virtue of the policy is found in the pmmibllily that by cen tering their efforts otf tins Idrersary they might be able to eliminate him as a oontender L and hr repeating the process against their other foes com pel the disintegration of any coali tion formed against them. The idan waa tried first with Rranre, thru with Uussla. It fail ed both Umea. The Mow at Ver dun waa a second bid to eliminate Krnncc. Its failure is followed by an Austrian attack against Italy which hears all the marks of a carefully planned, thoroughly or- gani/ed and substantially hacked attempt to break the ring of Allies at which is generally regarded as Che weakest link. There is no doubt thet ons factor in tho situation which haa Induced „ the Teutonic general staff to strike hard at Italy ia the very general be lief in Germany and Austria that Italy la tired of the war, that her economic condition is aerioue and tfcat tha people of the country would be glad to be safely out of a losing struggle. The same feeling prevails in regard to France. That the Im pression U a false one no one in the Entente countries doubt, but the very fact that It exists must be taken Into consideration in any discussion of Germanic alms. From the Germanic viewpoint s successful offensive jigulnst Italy— one which would permit an invasion ef some consequence, with tha occu pation of the northern strongholds —would break the spirit of Italian opposition and speedily bring the Quirlnal to the point of peace par leys. Arguing from this point, e new effort would be made against Prance, which would be accompanied by material concessions as an Induce ment for the republic to desert her remaining allies, thus leaving only Britain and Russia to continue the iwar. The first indication that the of fensive against Italy was taking form came a week a£0 in a great increase in the artillery fire from the Trentino all along the line to the Sea. Ho quietly had the Austrian preparations been made, however, - that even the shrewdest military ob servers failed to see in this violent bombardment the beginning of a major operation. A week ago the storm broke with unexampled fury along a front from I^ike Garda to the Carnic Alps, and no longer was there doubt that one of the most Irttportant struggles of tho war had commenced. Bit by bit news of the extent-of tho movement came across tho Swiss frontier. Belated reports of tremendous artillery concentra tions in tho Innsbruck region; of big troop movements down into the Trent district^ of reinforced garrisons J in the mountain fort resses and unceasing trains of shells and supplies on the Alpine railw'ays told the whole story of Austrian hopes. The first assault came with a twenty-four-hour bombardment of the heights from the Adige Valley in < the Val Sugana, which was followed by an Infantry advance In force. The Italians, taken by surprise and super- astating its effect that in three days the Italians were compelled to give np practically ail their ground on the north side of the valley and Sat urday’s reports made It doubtful if they could retain their hold on Borgo. Thus far, while tpe artillery has maintained a general bombardment on the entire front extending from the mountains to the sea little in fantry action has developed east of the Dolomites. Col do Lana, the capture of which by the Italians In April, marked one of the most bril liant feats of Italians arms, Is under heavy attack and the Austrians seem determined to recover it for the rea son that It dominates the country be yond Helluna and as such is the most vital observation post and point of suport in the Eastern Trentino. The purpose of the Austrian drive two b7ief attacks by Russia, one against Cxernowits and one in Galtpia, neither of which necessitated a call on the reserves or her conscript class of last autumn, Kumla is contemplating an pffensive or that the Knasian front has been weakened to provide fur the attack on Italy. ; It is difficult to tell with accuracy Just what new strength can be brought to bear, but basing' an esti mate on the normal conscript figures and deducting for civil and industrial needs it seems probable the two kingdoms of Austria and Hungary will have added this spring at least 025,000 rifles to the line. Tills would make a net increase in the size of the army of approximately 100,000 effectives since the first of the year. While the army has been imit state of comparative inaction the Austrian arsenals and munitions plants, in cluding the great Skoda works, have been working at high pressure lay ing up guns and shells against the great need of an offensive, and vir tually the entire output for the last six months is available to the army now. And it is with these reserve resources of meu and munitions that the offensive against Italy is begun Naturally the first question army, stands a living menace Galicia and Bukowina. Thus the normal course would be ret for the field either this month next. Austria is holding the east< front with the same strength she I maintained shjee autumn, with I addition of a "perceptible Increase her artillery trains. Her dr levies. Against this force Italy ran ep pose her mobile army of 800,00( .u ... wen * n< l reserves totaling arounc, .200,0*0. additional the Sugana and the Tleri di Primiura routes (the later giving out In the —. were placed on furlough and now I^l.lMfiA„accLflr..^aiL Lheacft.

The first noticeable effect of the Austrian attack was a widening of the loop the Italians gradually had placed about Rovereto. Piazza and Moschore were occupied In turn on Monday, the Tarragnole Valley waa Reared, Mori and Marco were occu- ‘ "iy Thursday, and the advance r to Tho east -toward the of thf Upper Aatico and the Lavt- m- Hwii H ee<4—>i mm Me »a of the Italian armies. A drive into the Vicenza plain would mean the isolation of the northern and Isonzo groups and an Inevitable disruption of the entire defensive organization. There is little fear in London, however, thet the Austrians will be anle to progress so far. Italy has tKkfff the same precaution for the protection of her frontier as Austria has taken. Modern forte guard every available entrance to the northern plains. The frontier heights bristle with permanent fortifications and In addition the ritiea In the danger zone are proteeted by intrirate systems of fortified works. Verona In reality is an entrench ed camp. Seven separate forte eon.- nected with entrenchments end bringing crossfire to beer on the passes guard the exits from the Lav- erone planteau and stand as senti nels before Vivenza, Bassano and Azlago. Ho that the Austrians may clear their territory up to the fron tier and advance Onto Italian soil for distances of from five to ten miles before they meet the line of resist ance decided on by the Italian engi neering staff as that on which the main defence against invasion shall be made. The week's fighting re sulted in an A ns trla n advance of from three to ten miles. There is no disposition now, how ever. to underestimate the ability of Austria-Hungary to engage In n major campaign. The early failures of the army, Its almost complete col lapse in the early months of the war, UlA patent criminal incapacity of Its leaders, gave to the entire organiza tion a reputation for utter impo- tency. Russia literally had walked ovet It. It had met disaster twlco at the hands of the Serbs. Despite the lib eral and substantial character of Its physical factors, it seemed on the very point of disintegration. IU for tunes went from had to worse, until (he German leaders were forced to take cognizance of it. Then a radical reorganization took place. Generals were reduced In rank or removed. German units were placed in tho Austrian corps to stiffen up the Hue. The promotion of younger men to places of com mand—men who had distinguished themselves even in the defeats that bail followed one after another— tended to greatly increase the morale of. the rank and file. At the same time, there was brought about some degree of cohesion among Lhe di vers.© nationalities that go to make up the army organization. The first evidence of the effect of these measures was the battle of the Carpathians a year ago last Feb ruary. The Russian legions were pouring through tho passes of the mountains and at two points had de bouched on the plains of Hungary. Nothing, it seemed, could prevent a collosal sweep to Budapest and the dismemberment of the Austro-Hun garian empire. Then, in the fastnesses about Uskub pass the new spirit began to assert itself. The Russians were stopped. Gradually they were forced hack.
