Petrograd, July 3-Prisoners exceed
ing 10000 and the capture of the vii
lage of Koniuchy and strongly fortified
positions southwest of Brzezany are
the first fruits of the new offensive
movement Of the Russian forces in
Eastern Galicia. North of Koniuchy
the Russians have attacked and fresh
battles are in progress.
The Russian artillery, long inactive
from lack of shells, played an import
ant part in the defeat of the Austro-
Germans at koniuchy. For two days
a rain Of iron was thrown into the
German positions, and Berlin says Of
icially that they were turned into a
crater field. The Russians not only
carried three lines of German tren-
ches and Koniuchy, which was strongly
fortified, but also advanced to the
Koniuchy stream south of the village,
which is on the Zlota Lipa river.
Around Brzezany the fighting was
most bitter and Berlin claims that six
teen Russian divisions were thrown
forward The Russians carried the
fortified Teuton positions in face of a
desperate resistance by Austrian,
German and Turkish troops.
Minister of War Kerensky personally
led the Russian revolutionary army in
its forward movement and says that
the offensive proved to Russia and
the entire world its fidelity to the
revolution and its love of liberty and
country. The premier has authorized
Minister Kerensky to give the regi.
ments which participated in the fight.

THE COAL SITUATION
Little Likelihood of Much Change from
Present Prices.

Many people in Bennington have
been mislead by the announcement
that the coal miner operators had an
nounced reduction of prices at the
mines. This announcement applies to
soft coal only and so far there has
boen no change in the situation as re-
CARDS anthracite or hard coal sucn as
is used for heating in houses,
Following the announcement some of
the patrons of the Bennington coal
dealers cancelled their orders for their
winter supplies of coal in the ex-
pectation of a drop in prices.
The local dealers are of the opin-
ion that there will not be much if any
change in the prices for hard coal dur
ing the summer. 1t Is possible tnat
there may be slight advance from
present quotations but unless some
thing unforeseen happens there is not
much chance for a decrease.
In the opinion of the dealers Ben
nington people who put in their wnt.
er's supply of coal during the next
two months will be playing safe.
