NEW YORK TO HAVE
FOOD AND MARKET
DEPARTMENT SOON
Aldermen to Create Bureau
TueSday-Funds Ready
July 10.

A New York City Department Of
Foods and Markets will be created
by the Board OF Aldermen Tuesday
The Special Market Committee has
reported favorably a bill establishing
such department, and President
Bowling has assured Mayor Mitchell
that II will be passed. The Mayor
has issued the following statement:
"The Aldermen have acted with most
commendable promptness. Following
their action on Tuesday. the Board OF
Estimate on July 10 will make the
transfers OF necessary funds. so that
the head OF the department may be
appointed as soon as possible"
George w. Perkins Is given credit
for having goaded the Board of Alder
men to quick and favorable action on
the department bill, which, before It
could become a law, required the ap-
proval OF both the Board of Estimate
and Aldermen. Mr.. Perkins a week
ago told OF 400 carloads Of potatoes
having been sidetraCked In Jersey
He said last Wednesday that thirty
carloads OF live poultry, also intended
for delivery here, had been held up
for several days across the Hudson.
Mr.. Perkins pointed out that II
would be impossible to facilitate the
delivery OF foodstuffs in the city until
the new Markets Department had
been created with an energetic Com
missioner 10 supervise and direct all
such undertakings, He advised that
the progress" OF the Markets Bill be
watched in the Board OF Aldermen
lest the board adjourn for the sum
mer without taking action.
The new Commissioner OF Markets
will receive an annual salary of 81
500. Cyrus G, Miller. Independent
Democrat and former President OF the
Bronx, is one OF those mentioned for
the Commissionership. He has been
one OF the most active advocates Of
"a Markets Department and food con-
servation legislation.

Germans is increasing in intensity.
There have been short infantry en-
gagements in this region. the official

The text Of the statement follows:
In the direction OF Zlochow there
has been increased artillery activity
on both sides. In the region north
west OF Rybnikl. near Dzikelany, there
were number OF brief, sharp
encounters between our detachments.
The enemy artillery conducted an in
tense fire against our positions east
OF Lipnicadolna. F'usillades were re-
ported on the rest OF the Russian
front.
I'm the region of IIaiestchi, on the
Roumanian front, the Germans dis
played white flags and called upon
our soldiers to fraternize. They were
met by the fire OF our artillery. There
were fusillades on the rest OF this
front"

GERMANS SACRIFICE
YOUTHFUL SOLDIERS
IN 4VA|N ATTACKS
Dash Of French Troops in
Furious Battle Due to Moral
Aid of Americans.

PARIS. July lon the high ground
cast OF Rheims petain's poilus have
straightened out their line again
strengthening their hold on the heights
dominating the German positions
Four times the Germans threw their
troops against the new French posi-
tions and each time in vain, suffer-
ing heavy losses, last nights official
report says.
Artillery activity In the Verdun
sector persists. and on the other side
OF Rheims. west OF the Chemln des
Danes. scene OF some OF the bitter
est fighting Of tho war, artillery ac-
uvity developed marked intensity
near vauKRillon, half way between
Laon and Scissors.
''The day was marked by an In
crease in artillery activity in the sec
tors of Vauxaillon. Laffaux. La
Roysre Farm and Braye-en -Laon-
nofs." tho report states. (Vauxaillon
is two miles west OF Laffaux. eight
miles northwest OF SoisBons. Braye-
en- -Laonnois, on the Chemln- des-
Danes, IL ten miles east OF Vauxall-
lon.)
'Tn Champagne" the report con-
tinues, I'VE have carried out in the
sector OF Mont Haut and to the east
OF Mont Carnillet twelve miles east
Of Rheimsl detailed operations
which enabled us 10 reduce two
small salients and to capture n score
OF prisoners The enemy, who at
tempted four times TO rooapturo the
terrain we had taken, suffered heavy
losses TO no avail.
"On the left bank Of the Meuse the
artillery firing was very violent In the
region OF Hin So4 and lie Mort
Homme."
The Associated Press correspondent
writing from tho French front In the
Chemin des Danes region says the
French commanding officere attribute
the undin,inished dash and vlgor Of
their men, whom the Germans made
their furious attack on Tuesday night
largely TO the moral aid furnished by
the arrival Of American troops in
France and the Russian forward
movement in Galioia.
Many German youths Of the 1913
class. this correspondent says, lie in
front OF the French lines and in the
shell craters with their packs still
strapped to their backs.
THE German Crown Prince had ar
ranged q surpriee party for u.s." the
commanding General told the cor
respondent. "in order TO Offset the
Russian victory in Gallcia, but he
knocked at the wrong door and re-
ceived u disagreeable reception"
Neither on the Somme. at Verdun
nor in the Champagne, this General
said. had he experienced more in
tense artillery bombardment He
could not communicate with his ar
tillery commanders because the wires
had been broken by proJectlles.
He was utterly astonished when no
saw his own artillery, without
awaiting orders, open a barrage fire.
This, and the French rifle FIRE from
the trenches. made IL almost impos-
slble for the Germans to come over
the top.

daybreak. Also at zwyzyn. Brody
(near the border line OF 0alicla and
Russla) and Smorgon (far to the

artillery was very lively at intervals.
I'VE observed preparations by
Roumanian infantry for an attack
against some heights held by us
south of the casinu Valley on the
Roumanian front. These were dis
persed by our destructive iro. On
the Lower Danube the enemy was
more restless than he had been
lately"
The official statement from Austro-

day says:
ITO the south of Casinu Valley
