New York.-The State Dairymen's 8
League throttled the New York City
milk distributors. They succeeded in
cutting the supply to 80 per cent Of
the normal, while the great distribut-
ing companies made frantic efforts to
bring milk from the western states
and Canada.
As result, thousands of New York
families are without milk and the
supply allowed others throughout the
metropolitan district is curtailed. Hos
pitals and homes in which there are
sick children will be cared for first
it Is said, and for the present these
places will get the full supply needed

and more advances may come when
the league wins.
From various towns and villages in
the milk producing sections OF New

received showing that farmers who

roads and at turnpikes leading to the
milk stations controlled by the milk
distributing companies have learned
the tricks OF their striking brothers

COMPLIES TAKEN BY THE ALLIES.

London.-The Allies won spectacu-
lar successes in the Somme region.
Two vital strongholds were captured,
and at a third point the British took
a village which puts them mile
closer to Bapaume.
Combles fell to the French and Brit
ish troops, who entered 1t together,
each cleaning out half Of the town
whose capture had come to be re-
garded as Of the greatest significance.
The British also took Thiepval, the
Hohenzollern redoubt and the high
ridge east of it. The importance OF
this advance surpasses in military
advantage even the taking of Combles.
Thiepval had been fortified with an
elaborate system OF heavily wired
trenches. The Germans regarded it
as impregnable, and their desperate
resistance at Thiepval had held up
the British left wing for months
ever since the Somme offensive be-
gan. The village marked the north
ernmost limit Of the Allies gains.
The British also took Gueudecourt,
in he centre of their line Gueude-
court is three miles from Bapaume.
Combles fell easily. 1t could not
hold out after the capture of Fregi-
court and Morval and al the high
ground commanding it. SO well was
this recognized that the Allies artil-
lery did not even fire upon the village
itself Then the khaki clad British
and the French in blue fray entered
the town together, each attending
strictly to it, own sectio,. The Brit.
ish cleaned out the part on the left
of the railroad, while he French took
the section on the right OF the line.
The work was accomplished within
few hours.
There has been fierce fighting north
east OF Thiepval, in the course OF
which our troops stormed and now
hold an enemy work known as the
Stuff Redoubt, on the main ridge 1000
yards northeast of the village.

GREEK KING TO
AGREE TO WAR
Constantine, in Fear of Los
~ ing Throne. Decides to
Join Allies.
TO ORDER BULGARS OUT

London.-War against Bulgaria has
been decided on by Kins Constantine
and the Greek Cabinet. An ultimatum
will be sent demanding that Bulgaria
evacuate Immediately the parts OF
Greek Macedonia she now occupies.
Mobilization OF the whole Greek army
will begin without loss OF time.
This is the news in dispatches re-
ceived from Athens. Premier Kaloger-
opoulos said before a hastily sum-
moned Cabinet meeting that an ulti-
matum would be sent to Bulgaria.
An Athens despatch says:
The King called a conference OF
Premier Kalogeropoulos, Gen. Moscho-
poulos, the Chief of Staff; Rear Ad.
mral Damianos, the Minister OF Ma
rine and Nicholas Strathos. ex-Minis-
ter OF Marine, at the Palace to discuss
the action to be taken in view of the
silence OF the Entente Powers respect
ing Greece's proposal to join the
Allies, made through the Greek Min
listers at the Entente capitals ten days
ago"
This Is the first news that the formal
proposal for action by Greece on the
side of the Allies was made by King
COnstantine's Government. 1t is be-
lieved that the King was induced to
take this step by the growth OF the
national revolt and fear OF the loss
of his throne unless he acceded to
the desires OF the Greek people.
In a despatch from Athens Reuters
correspondent says a telegram has
been received there from Canea Civ
ing the summary OF the proclamation
OF a provisional Government by for
mer Premier Venizelos and Admiral
Condour!otis. The main points OF the
document, says the correspondent, con-
stitute a comparison Of the Greece
OF today with the Greece OF 1928.

ALLIES GUN lNOE SUM NJ ( DNlVC
London.-Giving the Germans no
rest, the victorious British and French
troops are driving forward on the
Somme front. Both armies won more
victories along the same front where
they made their important progress.
Every German attempt to turn the
tide failed, all counter attacks being
beaten back.
The British pushed home their cap
ture OF Thiepval and placed them
selves firmly on the main ridge north
east of the village. They stormed the
German work called the Stuff Redoubt,
1000 yards from Thiepval Five miles
east they pushed forward north of
Flers, taking German trenches on a
1000 yard front and threatening Eau
court rAbbaye.
The French swept the Germans still
further back from Rancourt an1 pene-
trated the large st. Pierre Vaast
Wood, directly east of Rancourt. They
also captured a fortified wood east of
Vermandovillers, south OF the Somme.
French positions at BouchavCsnes
again, but the French dashed out to
meet the attackers, threw them back
broken and took 25O prisoners and
eight machine guns.
The French also got much booty.
A British statement estimates the
number OF prisoners in the last fort
night at 10000, while dispatches from
the front say that upward OF 5000
of these have been taken in the last
two days, when Comble., Thiepval,
Gueudecourt, Morval, Lesboeufs and
other places fell. In Combles the Brit
ish captured 1900 rifles, four liquid
flame throwers and much ammunition.
More than 1,S00 rifles, four fam.
menwerfer and many thousand rounds
of artillery ammunition and grenades
were taken in Combles, where our
Allies also made large captures OF
material.

London.-The Allies are making
further gains on the Eastern and
Western fronts, the Russians forcing
back the Teutons in another great
offensive directed towards Lemberg; (;
the French and British taking new
ground in the Somme region.
Another Zeppelin is reported to have
been shot down during a raid, over

a number Of hostile airships crossed
the east coast between o'clock and
midnight. A few bombs were drop
ped near the coast. An airship 10
reported brought down in flames north
OF London
The Rumanian army evidently IS
not in as desperate plight as the first
German accounts OF the victories four
days ago seemed TO indicate. South
of the Red Tower pass, which the
Bavarians captured. the Rumanians
have reorgan.zed and are making
strong attacks on the heights com
manding the pass west OF Caineni, the
Rumanian frontier post.
The two-prOnged avance OF the
Russians on Lemberg is again gather
ing such headway that the Austro-Ger-
man armies OF Prince Leopold OF Ba-
varia and Archduke Karl have been
pushed back. Both northeast and
Routheast Of the Galician capital the
Russians have registered advances,
capturing. according 10 the official re-
port issued in Petrograd, more than
1000 prisoners. Russian gains were
admitted by Berlin.
The two main actions are being wag-
ed in the region OF the BrodyKrasne
railway, about 30 miles northeast OF
Lemberg, and in the Brozosany sector
on the Zlota Lipa river, fifty miles
southeast Of the city.
In the former district, the Russians
have pressed forward against heavy
resistance, taking about 1000 prison
ers. A Teuton Lpa was carried on
the southeastern prov Of the advance.
A war office report from Vienna
says that four Russian officers and
532 men, together with eight machine
guns were captured in the Ludova
