Mr.. Claude z. Miller, Of Miller Bros
Auto and Supply House, is on a Western
tour in the interest of his firm. His
itinerary includes, New York. Detroit,
Flint, Mich, the home of the Dort and
Racine, Wis. where the Mitchell factory
is located. He will also stop enroute at
several other. places prominent in the
automobile world.
Bold and striking as were the price re-
ductions of last year, there is no longer
room for doubt that. speaking generally
at least. they cannot be repeated or even
held to during the year to come. Condi-
tons utterly unforeseen in the season of
planning the offerings of 1916 have so
completely altered the complexion of
car manufacture as to render the further
lowering of prices as far as the ordinary
is concerned. thing utter
ly out of the question. Since January
a score of makers have been forced -
raise the prices on their varied products.
and 1t is now plainly to be seen that with
the 1917 disclosures there will be a gen.
eral lifting of prices all along the line.
For this. of course. no other explanation
Is needed than the high and ever higher
cost Of materials and the uncertainties Of
abor. With no relief in sight from
either Of these difficulties the makers
'nly recourse is to share his burden with
he consumsr.

The StoITning of Contalmaison.

With British Army in the Field July 10, 500 p. m., via London, July Il, 4:00 a. m.-In a midsummer af- ternoon in bright sunlight undimmed by deecy clouds and in air as clear as any artillery observer could ask, the possession both sides seem 60 regard as the tactical keystone of the present situation.
 Fragments of walls of an old chateau still standing amid ruins con- stituted the last glimpse the Asso- ciated Press correspondent had of the town before the attack.
 Tn their preparatory bombardment before the attack British 15 inch shell was seen to tear away a, portion of the walls which rose in a cloud of dust. For a given area, the artillery fire was the heaviest of any yet seen on this front. The Germans an- swered the British smelling with an immense volume of their own fire, placing a curtain in front of the town which at times was hidden from the British guns enveloping the town, and also scattering shells near the front line.
 The British fire kept on increasing and spreading until from the Trones Wood another hotly disputed point which already has become branchless end 1eafless trunks to Ovillers and La Boiselle, the artillery duel ragged along the new front.
 At 4:40 o'clock as the British charged there seemed to be peace in Contalmaison, surrounded by walls of shell fire. Soon after the British en- tered the town and after the German infantry was forced out, the German guns took their turn at hammering the ruins and knocking off more sec tions of the walls of the old chateau while the British were tossing the

BRITISH SMASH
 z. THROUGH ENEMY
Literally Blow Their Way Into Contal-
 maison Amid Deluge of Shells --French on Hill Watch PerOnne

London, July II, 11:45 a. m.-With the capture by the French of La Mai sonnette Hill which dominates the 7 valley of the Somme and from which everything that happens in Peronne can be observed, one of the primary objects of the Anglo-F'rench offensive has been achieved.
 The two armies now are engaged in an effort to organize and extend the limits of the ground they have gained and in repelling German coun- ter attacks which are directed parti- cularly against the British to north regaining a footing in the Trones wood. At other points, however, the British have been able to make some progress, although necessarily slow against well fortified positions.
 The Germans. on their part, are heavily shelling the Allied front from Lens to the Belgian coast, but thus far there have been no attempts at infantry actions except for the usual raids in which both sides engaged.
 The Russians continue the advance toward Kovel and now are engaged in a pitched battle along the banks of the Stokhod which they have crossed at some points On the rest of the Eastern front while there is continuous fighting at many places no important change occurred. Both sides are concentrating their foes at Lutsk salient to the east of Kovel.
 In the Caucasus and Mesopotamia the fighting between the Turks and Russians continues with varying re- suits. The weather in the greater part of this region, which is extreme ly hot, precludes any sustained efforts.

County Health Officer w. A. King cf Willimantic, pr. A. A. Chase of this town and Health Officer Clark of Can terbury have the arrangements in chage. Word has been sent to New York city that families who intended to come to this section should remain at home for the present.

69TH REGIMENT IS
 VERGING ON MUTINY
Object to Removal of Favor ite Officers By Major
 General Wood.

Camp Whitman, Green Ha- ven, N. Y, July 11.-Col. Louis D. Conley and Lieut.. Col. John ]. Phelan of the 69th regiment were ordered mustered out of the federal service today just as the regi- ment was entraining here for Pharr, Tex. The order came from Maj, Gen. Leonard Wood. The cause of the action was given as "physical disa- bility."
 The news of the mastering out of these two officers came like a thunderbolt and con- sternation reigned in camp. Major Michael Lynch was or dered to take command tenn porarily until relieved by SO1Ile ueSlgudleu OI1lCeT 10 Oe named later.
 Under provision of federal military law there is no ap- peal from the decision of the Washington authorities.
 It is said that a regular
 
 army officer will be appointed to fill Colonel Conley's place. No information could be ob- tained in regard to Colonel Phelan's vacancy. A report was prevalent that the entire regiment was threatening to mutiny.
