SULLIVAN BANK Bun,bma . by international ELABORATE SYSTEM OF ENTRENCHMENT Prepared by Austrians Along the Isonzo River Rome, June 15, via Paris, June 16, 5:55 a. m.—An elaborate system of entrenchments has been prepared LY the Austrians along the Isonzo river according to an ~official statement signed by Gen. Cadorna, issued at the war office tonight. At some points htere. are several lines of trenches, some of which are built of masonry and concrete. These trénches are guarded by many mines and batteries. The communication which declares repeated Austrian attacks in Carnia were repulsed, was as follows: Occupying Dominant Points. “On the Tyrol-Trentino-Cadore front we gradually are occupying dominating points except for distant artillery fire and new but unsuccess- ful attacks on June 13 against the summit of. Vellone, in the upper valley of the Piave (Carno Alps), our ad- versary has not shown in this region any particular sign of activity. . “More intense attacks have been made repeatedly by the enemy in Carnia, either near the defiles of Val Sesis, which still is strongly held by us, or especially against the rear line of Mont Avovanis, to the defile of Monte Croce. Here on the ‘morning of June 14 the enemy made a vigor- ous attack preceded by.an intense ar- tillery fire which began in the night and became very violent at daybreak. The énémy was repulsed and pur- sued at the point of the bayonet. Artillery Actions Occar. “Long distance artillery actions oc- cured also in the zone of Monte Nefo on the Selem Mazli front and on the Kozliak. “Along the Isonzo on the line froj Podgora to Montforton and to the in- tersection of the Monfalcone canal, reconnaissances showed 'the’ precise quality of the defensive works pre- pared by the enemy on the Isonzo front.) They include ‘entrenchment some times: in several lines and often in ‘masonry or concrete reinforced by metallic sheeting, protected by a net- work of mines or batterles often placed below theiearth. N Active Night Surveilance. '* “A very active night 'surveillance 'is exercised by the enemy, aided by searchlights and rockets with tele- graphic and telephonic communica- tion, “An examination of some of our wounded shows that the enemy is using explosive projectiles. An in- spection of the remnants of projectiles where there has been fighting also shows: that the enemy has been em- ploying devices explicitly condemned conventions. A Spirits of Italians High. “Heavy rains yesterday afternoon and last night have disturbed living conditions in our camps, but haye tempered the heat of the last few days. The health of our troops con- tinues excellent and their :pirlts ar- ways are high.' STATEMENT OF FACTS ON LONDON RAIDS British Ambassador Formally Presents Matter to United States Through Acting Secretary Lansing. ‘Washington, June 16.—terman at- tempts to bombard London frfom air- craft were brought formally to the attention of the Dnited States goy- ernment yesterday by Sir Cecil Spring- Rice, the British ambassador, No request for a protest to Germany was made. The ambassador merely called al the state department and submitted to Secretary Lansing a statement of the facts from the British viewpoint. After referring to the growing fre- quency of raids in sections of London by hostile aeronaits. Sir Cecil de- ciared that the grea® city practically was unfortified; absolutely so far as the residential sections were con- cerned. Millions of people were crowded .in congested quarters, he said, and it would be impossible for British artillery men to defend these sgections against aeroplane or Zeppe- lin attacks, because any shells sent into the sky towards aircraft almost certainly would work great restruc- tion of life when their fragments re- turned to earth in the crowded city. The ambagsador also pomnted out that a large number of Americans and other non-English people are residents in London and that located there are the foreign embassies and legations and many hospitals and charitable in- stitutions, all of which are greatly en- dangered by the Zeppelin attacks. As airships usually operate in thiek weather, at night or above the clouds, Mr. Lansing was reminded that their commanders can only approximate in the most general way the landing place of the bombs they drop. TO PAY AMERICAN CLAIMS, ‘Washington, June 16.—Notice was given by the British embassy yester- day that authority had been granted for the settlement and payment at the embassy here and at the consu- late-general in, New York of the claims of American exporters on a- count of -detentions and approprian# tions of cotton.
