Berlin, July 13, via London, 4:35 p. m.—German troops under com- mand of Gen. Count Von Bothmer by an encircling counter attack have driven back the Russian forces which had pushed forward in the region northwest of Buczacz, in Galicia, says the German officlal statement lssued today. The Germans took 400 Russian prisoners. Russia Surprises the World. London, July 13.—The recovery of the Russian armies since their defeats of last year and the apparently inex- haustible supplies of guns and ammu- nition with which they are provided continues to be a source of wonder to military writers. At least six great armies are engaged against the Aus- trians and Germans on Russia’s west- ern front. All of them are using great quantities of ammunition, even those not definitely on the offensive. The forces under Grand Duke Nich- olas in Armenia and Persia have been fighting vigorously against the Turks for months. A few weeks ago parts of these forces, particularly those west of Erzerum were compelled to fall back in the face of a stronger Turkish army. Early this week the grand duke resumed the offensive in this region and recaptured Mamakhatum, fifty miles west of Erzerum, so that the Turks have fallen back some twenty- five miles from the furthest point reached in their counter offensive.

North of the Pinsk marshes the fighting at present is largely with ar- tillery. In Galicia the Russian armies are re-forming for continuation of the offensive. Seventh Attack on Verdun.

The Germans have made a slight gain but mpparently this has not lessened the eonfidence of the French in thelr abil- ity to hold fast.

The British are still engaged in clearing the Germans from the fortl- fled positions which must be taken before the general offensive can be re- newed. TO TELL: HUGHES JULY 31.

SENATE TACHLES BILL FOR A BIGGER NAVY Takes Up Report Favoring Expenditures of $588,180, 575 in Three Years. Washington, July 13.—The naval appropriation bill was taken up by the senate today to be kept before it until a final vote is taken. The meas- ure as reported by the naval com- mittee substitutes eight capital ships the coming year for the house five and specifies completion of the navy board’s five year building program within three years. As it passed the house the bill pro- vides for five battle cruisers and no battleships and contains no provision for a building policy extending into the future. The program of four battleships and four battle cruisers for the coming year and completion of the flve year program of sixteen capital ships two years earlier than intended was decided on by the wen- ate naval committee after conference with Secretary Daniels, who voiced the president’s desire that construc- tion be speeded as much as possible The three year program calls for an expenditure of $588,180,57 of which $315,836,943 1s appropriated for 1917. New construction in 1917 would cost $116,726,000. The house bill called for a total expenditure of $269,900,000 in 1817. The general board's program pro- vides for this construction: Ten dreadnoughts (four this six battle cruisers (four this ten scout cruisers (four this five fleet submarines (none this fifty destroyers (ten this year eight coast submarines (twenty-seven this year); one repair ship, one hos- this year) three oil fuel ships (one pital ship, one transport; two destroy- er tenders (one this year); one fleet submarine tender; two ammunition ships (one this year); two gunboats (one this year). The house bill would bring the to- tal enlisted strength of the navy up to 65,000 but the senate committee inserted a provision to provide for a peace strength of $74,700 and to give the president power to recruit the navy’s full strength to 87,000 in an emergency. WORKINGMAN PROSPEROUS Many Employers Increase Wages During Past Year—Iron and Steel Industries Give Greatest Raises. Washington, July 13.—Many of the country’s leading manufacturing industries have made substantial in- creases in their wage scales within the last year. An inquiry completed today by the department of labor shows the iron and steel industry made the biggest increases. Most plants raised wages last May, and for many this was the second raise within a year. Total increases | amounted to from five to thirty per cent. In the boot and shoe mdustries in- | creases were not general, although | many individual factorles raised | wages. Northern cotton manufactur- lers generally increased the pay of their men, while southern mills gen- | erally did not. Silk and woolen tablishments made raises, but hosier manufacturing concerns made few. | There were no increases in the | ready-made clothing industry and | none in cigar manufacturing. and Jury to Investigate Demons tion Against Religious Speaker.

Reeks Expects to Bring Mother to Court. With over sixty visiting New York children under observation by the board of health and others arriving at the rate of fifteen a day, New Britain has no small problem on its hands in struggling against an out- break of infantile paralysis. Board of health inspectors, following the policy adopted early in the week when reports from the metropolis became alarming, are meeting every New York express at Berlin station and obtaining from the conductors in- formation regarding passengers bound for the Hardware In this man- ner it has been possible to keep track of visitors fleeing from the plague which has taken such a heavy death toll among the juvenile popula- tion of the great city. The information thus obtained has resulted in a practical quarantine of all strangers arriving with children. But despite the health board's vig- ilance and the strict orders to remain within restricted territory, one of the board’s inspectors discovered yester- day that the rules were not being ob- served. A nurse visiting the restrict- ed area discovered when approach- ing a house in the northern secti of the city, where a family of New Yorkers are endeavorng to escape the dread disease, that the children had left the premises and were mingling freely with neighborhood children. The mother of the children saw the nurse and endeavored to drag her offspring into the house. The case was immediately reported to Health Superintendent ReeKs and | today he announced that the party in question would be brought into court, charged with violation of the health board's orders, provided suffi- clent evidence was obtained to war- rant a prosecution. Superintendent Reeks said this morning that his de- rtment determined to use most id methods in kecping the city free from the discase thus far had succeeded. Those under observation will be kept under quasi-quarantine until it is certain they have not brought the deadly germ into the city. is and i Fighting to Restrict Diseasc. New York, July York City health officers said today that they were doing thelr best to prevent the spread of infantile paralysis from this city to other com- raunities. Residents of infected dis- iricts here have been warned that they will encounter stern quarantine measures if they leave the city. Out of tawn health authorities have been asked to report any persons arriving trom Infected areas in New York City, To enable other towns and cities to do this the local board of health is distributing broadcast lists of dis- tricts where cases of the disease have bheen found here. Sixty Cases 13.—New in New Jersey. The New Jer: state health de- partment last night reported that the total number of cases in the state as sixty, with eleven new cases for the day. The state health department has announced that it wauld not de- clare a quarantine against New York City but would leave that to the local boards. From the office of the at- torney general of New Jersey came ga cpinion that the state cannot keep out children under 14 years of age if they are health Many of the New Jersey towns nearest New York, however, have not hesitated to turn back children, not cnly those who come from New York but those from other places.

At 7 o'clock this morning with the sun boring through the mists and the mercury registering close to the 0 mark the temperature rose on an a- erage a full degree every half hour until 12:30 when it struck the 83 mark. With this hitherto unreached figure promise of a thunderstorm was offered and in the next hour tha mercury dropped four degrees. /This was accompanied by a gradual“zath- ering of storm clouds and the rumb- lings of thunder in the distance. Shortly before 2 o'clock it became evident that a heavy shower was ap- proaching. The thunder became heavier and the flashes of lightning more frequent. Then came dashes ¢f rain followed by a heavy downpour, noticeably cooling the atmosphere. That it was easily the hottest day of the year was early attested when foundrymen at the Union Works and Russell & Erwin’s quit work. To a certain extent every foundry in the city was affected by the heeat, work- ers unable to stand the heat of the combined with the intense heat of the furnaces giving way. the founderies were forced to stick to the job, having prepared early heats, but in the brass foundri where blast furnaces are used the heat was so intense that the workmen were forced to quit early in the day Both ‘the local hospital and the milk station reported an Increase of sick babies owing to the excessive heat Infants suffering with bowel troubles were reported at both piaces and nurses declared that unless decided check in temperature curred soon the increase in sickness would be marked. At 2 o'clock with the advent of the storm, the mercury had dropped in half an hour from 93 to 70 degrees and the fall was accompanied with a | torrential downpour. Like a tropical storm. the rain fell and in a few mo- ments the gutters were swimming with water. Thy sky darkened so that it was necessary to resort to artificial light in stores and business offices. Just as the storm broke shortly be- fore 2 o’clock this afternoon lightning struck the chimney on the house owned by David Beloin at 22 Seymour street and an alarm was sent in from Box 412, but it was not necessary to put a stream on as the chimney alone was shattered.

Proposes First Line Flect of ¥ Superdreadnoughts. Tokio, July 13.—Despatches sent to America stating that Japan has au- thorized the construction of four su- perdreadnoughts are untrue and mis- Jeading. According to press reports, which are contradictory, the navy has submitted to the finance department a repletion program to be introdnced in the Japanese diet involving the ex- penditure of about 250,000,000 yen in seven years. This program calls for the construction of three superdread- noughts, two battle cruisers, numer- ous light cruisers, destroyers and sub- marines.

PENS CAMPAIGN ON GERMS Emplogs Boy Scouts to Distribute 5,000 Circulars Containing Advice | NO NEED TE BE ON SICK LIST ‘Wholesome Suggestions, Which, If Followed, Will Have ESect of In- creasing Your Happiness During Hot Summer Months. Through the medium of the Boy Scouts, the local board of health has | begun distribution of 5,000 copies of health hints, which are specially rec- ommended during these superheated July days. Avoid disease by germ proof and germ free, is the cs- sence of the advice given. Following are a number of the most important hints offered: Before going on your summer va- cation be sure you are typhoid fever proof. Such immunity may be obtained by having your physician vaccinate you against this disease. The drinking water which you find at summer resorts may contain the typhoid germ. We do not catch typhoid fever, we swallow it! Remember this when you are on your vacation. Vacation Hints. Dress according to the weather, not according to season. If there be any questions as to the purity of drinking water—boil it. Don't go on your vacation and re- turn with typhoid. Get vaccinated against typhoid fev- er before you go away. Have an absolute change of every- thing so that you can get full ben- efit of your vacation. Prejudice. Any prejudice against typhoid vac- cine has been very largely dispelled by wide military experience with the raccine during the present war. There is no doubt that typhoid vac- | cine gives a very deflnite protection against typhoild fever. The protec- tion is good for two years and prob- ably falls off rather slowly after that time. Uncooked Vegetables. Don't forget that typhoid etables usually eaten in the raw natural state. Carefully wash all fruits usually eaten in the raw state, with pure, clean, runing water. How Typhoid is Contracted. Tt is contracted in one way only and that is by swallowing the typhoid bac- cillus contalned in the excretions (feces or urine) of some individual who has the disease or is a carrler. This is done by ways of water, food, fingers and flies. Don’t stand for conditions make the transfer of typhoid infection possible. vegetables and Preventgrams. Pour oil on any stagnant water and prevent mosquitoes from breeding. Screen against the fly and mosquito. | It is easier to protect against the enemy than to fight him after he has a foothold. Keep the quarantine card on door and keep the crepe off neighbor’s. Better keep your sick child in the house than put your neighbor's in the grave. Always wash your meals. your your hands before Q. When is the best time to expose a child to measles so that he may have it and be through with it? A. The day after you permit him to play with a razor or permit him to build bonfires on the parlor floor. Shun Patent Medicines, They are dangerous. We despise and pity the drunkard for becoming a slave to liquor, but there are many people who become slaves to patent medicines in the same way—Dby using them. Patent medicine drunkenness is just as bad as any other form of drunkenness, and oft- en it is more dangerous. Consult your physician every case of illn. It will pay you in every way. The patent medicine is a delusion, a snare and a danger The fakir's object is not to cure but to get rich quick. Pointed Facts.

J., July 13.— One of the houses of the Dupont pow- der works, near here, blew up today, shaking the surrounding country. It was reported that four had been killed and three injured. So terrific was the blast that scarce- | 1y a brick in the building was left standing on another and the victims were crushed under tons of debris. A passing trolley car escaped the aval- anche of bricks but a dozen passen- gers aboard the car were injured, | some by shock and others by fiying | elass ana debris. The known dead were Martin Schmidt, owner of the shop: two clerks, the cashier, who was a woman, and a delivery boy. A girl whose tather says she was on her way to the store and who cannat be found, is thought also to have perished. The police belleve that others, pas- sersby, may have been buried under the falling walls which crashed through the sidewalk and street. Only a huge plle of debris and wreck- age marks the spot where the build- ing stood. Ry HAS TWENTY-FOUR MEN ABOARD Steamer Ramos Sinking 310 Miles From Watling’s Island. New York, July 13.—Richard A.
