A despatch from Rome says: At-
tacks in force were renewed on Wed-
nesday by the enemy upon the Italian
lines east of the Brenta, the War Of-
fice announced on Thursday. The at-
tacks continued the entire afteruoon,
but joecause of lois heavy losses the en-
emy at night, abandoned his effort,
Finding that the efforts of the Aus-
trians to break through and debouch
out upon the plain of Venetia were
futile, the German troops under Gen-
eral Von Buelow, reinforced their al-
lies, and with them delivered the new,
powerful assault. At only one point
