new YORK sun SOLD
TO FRANK A. MUNSEY
Great Newspaper, After %
Years, Becomes Associated
Press Member.

New York, July AFTER % years OF
unsuccessful effort to establish a pro-
prietary news gathering and distrib-
uting organization in opposition to the
cooperative form of the Associated
Press, the New York Sun was sold
yesterday to Frank A. Munsey, a men,
Der of the Associated Press, and be-
ginning Monday next will no longer try
to gather it's own news and will re-
ceive the service of the dominant or
ganization. In announcing the pur-
chase Mr.. Munsey says in today's issue
of the Sun:
THE tremendous advantage to the
Sun can be appreciated only by news
paper men. Through it the Sun Sc
cures a morning membership in the
Associated Press and there is no other
possible way to secure such member
ship except through the purchase of a
newspaper owning one.
Through a miXup that occurred
some years ago, when the Associated
Press was reorganiZed, the Sun did not
associate itself with all the other
morning papers of the town in the re-
organization. Ever since 1t has beer
compelled to gather it's news alone anc
at a vast annual expenditure In excess
Of the cost Of receiving 1t through the
Associated Press.
Moreover. II is not possible for a
single newspaper to compete in news
gathering with the Associated Press
which is the peerless news gathering
organization of all the world. With
the Associated Press membership
which the Sun secures through this
merger it will be equipped for bettet
work so far as concerns its news SER
vice than at any time in Its history
better than in the old days when 1t was
a member Of a press association, be-
cause the Associated Press Of today IL
incomparably better and bigger thar
any previous news gathering organi'
cation"
The price Of the Sun will be reduced
to ! cent.

Great Artillery Bombardment.

Great Artillery bomparoment'
The artillery bombardment Of the
last few days was concentrated this
morning with a degree of fury, and a
number of guns which were unprece-
denied in the region Of Albert and the
Somme, with the French cooperating
to the south.
At 1880 o'clock through clouds Of
smoke and dust, which hung over the
whole field as far as the eye could see,
the infantry sprang from the trenches
for an assault over a front of 20 miles.
Already 1t has gained possession of the
first line trenches and the advance Is
continuing.
The new British trench mortars,
which fire 35 shots a minue, played a
great part, cutting wire entanglements
and destroying trenches.
Large numbers Of prisoners have
been taken.
No Food For Five Days.
Some Of the prisoners say the British
curtains of fire prevented them from
getting food for the last five days.
A British stan officer, who witnessed
the advance at the junction of the
French and British lines, said the at
tack was launched as though the men
were on parade.
Under a pail Of shell smoke with the
unbroken roar Of artillery, the struggle
over the longest line Of any offensive
yet undertaken on the western front,
which began at 1880 o'clock this morn
ing, Is continuing at this hour.
From hill the Associated Press cor
respondent watched the beginning OF
the battle.
Thousands in Reserve.
Notwithstanding the fact that troops
have been moved to the front In i'm
mense numbers for the attack, there
are still remaining billets in the rear
which are apparently unnecessary in
working out the present plans.
With deliberate and methodtcal pre-
cision the gathering Of human and
mechanical material proceeded The
whole line was included in the prelim-
mary bombardment for the purpose OF
