ITALIAN GIANTS,
IN BAYONET RUSH,
CARRYJRENCHES
Cheered Men with Cry, "Re
member, the Sardinian Bri
gade Never Withdrew!"
MILAN, June 29.—The Corriere
della Sera prints an account of a
charge by an Italian force, a brigade
of grenadiers, comprising the tallest
men in the army, at the time of the
occupation of the Corso Heights
northeast of 31onfalcone. The grena
diers, says the newspaper, approach- j
Ed to within fifty yards of the in
trenched enemy, when with the cry of
"Savoy" they sprang with fixed bay
onets on the Austrian*, who broke
and fled.
A shower of artillery obliged the
grenadiers to change their position to
protect themselves. The Austrians,
evidently believing the Italians had
retired, advanced to reoecupy the lost
intrenehment, whereupon the col
lossal Major Manfredi, taking the
colors in hand, cried: "Grenadiers,
remember, the Sardinian brigade
never withdrew."
The grenadiers, the newspaper
adds, flung themselves upon the ad
vancing troops, driving them back,
but shrapnel carried away the left
leg of 3lajor Manfredi, who shortly
afterward died from loss of blood,
his last words being, "Goodby, my
brave boys; long live Italy."
In seventy communes organized by
the Supreme Commandant of Aus
trian territory occupied by the Ital
ians life has again become normal.
Business is being resumed, the mar
kets are going on regularly and
physicians are proceeding with the
work of disinfection. The author
ities make daily distribution of food
to the population.
The Italian Government has grant
ed the families of those mobilized
into the Austrian racks a continuation
of the subsidies the Austrian Govern
ment had paid.
