| THE TRENTINO SITUATION. AUSTRIAN OFFENSIVE IMPROBABLE. Received Jan 24, 7.5 p.m. Rome, Jan. 23. Austrian prisoners captured in the Alpine regions state that tho great activity the Anstrians displayed on the Trentino was entirely of a defensive character. General Corsi, in an exhaustive rc•viow of the military situation, said he firmly believes there is little probability of an Austrian offensive in the Tren- ' tino, as there is only a single railway from the Tyrol, and it is quite inade- ■ quite to supply a big amy. The Austrian offensive in 191(5 failed, owing co ' insufficient railway?. Austria will requiro at least a million men to reach the Italian plains, and even then Italy can successfully oppose the enemy.
