Quiet Prevails From Baltic to
Black Sea- British in Sue
cessful Raids.
SUMMARY OF THE NEWS
London Reports the Destruc-
ton and Defeat Of Six
More Airplanes.

Comparative calm continues to pre-
vail on all the battle fronts. Nowhere
has there been an engagement which
has arisen above the proportion of a
small encounter.
From the Baltic to the Black sea,
along the Russian and Rumanian
fronts, quiet prevails, except south
west of Riga, while in Macedonia,
only sporadic clashes have occurred.
Bombardments and small infantry
attacks at various points continue on
the front in France and Belgium. No
mention is made in the latest French
official communication of hostilities in
the region of Hill 304 in the Verdun
sector, wherefore it may be assumed
that the French have ceased, for the
moment at least, their attempts to re-
capture the trenches recently taken
from them by the Germans.
Between Scissors and Rheims and
south of Met Sas in Belgium, the Ger
mans have attempted advances by
means Of surprise attacks, but in both
instances were compelled to desist
under the fire respectively Of the
French and Belgian guns.
On the Somme front the British
have carried successful night raids
near the Butte de Warlencourt in
which German dugouts were shatter.
ed with bombs, and east OF Souchez,
where German works were damaged.
Considerable aerial activity contin-
ues over the lines in France, London
reports the destruction of three Ger
man machines and the driving down
damaged of three others.

In Suit For Alleged Breach
of Contract For To-
bacco Crop.
NEEDED TO FILL ORDERS
Tobacco and Not Money Is
What Snuff Company
Needs.

In bringing suit against John Isom
and r. M. Isom, farmers of North
Christian, and F. R. Dryer, tobacco
dealer of this city, the American
Snuff Co., raises a new point on
broken contracts. The Isoms after
an alleged sale to plaintiff are
charged with having sold the same
tobacco to Dryer at a higher price.
Heretofore in similar suits damages
for the difference in price has been
claimed but in these suits the Ameri-
can Snuff company bases its petition
on the grounds that il manufactures
snuff in large quantities which is sold
over wide territory. 1t is claimed
that orders for this snuff are taken
largely in advance and purchases of
tobacco are made to counterbalance
these future orders and take care of
natural business demands. To sup
ply this demand the plant here was
instructed to buy certain quantities
and grades Of tobacco which was
done.
L is therefore claialed that the ac-
tual delivery of the two crops in ques-
ton is essential to filling the demands
upon the company and that even il
monetary damages to the amount Of
the differences in the purchase price
and present market price were
awarded it would be insufficient tC
reimburse the American Snuff com.
pany for the loss of the tobacco from
their manufacturing business. Hence
they pray for court order forcing
the lsoms to deliver the tobacco to
their plant in Hopkinsville and to pre-.
vent Mr., Dryer from receiving it.
A temporary injunction has beer
granted in thscase and it will prob
ably be tried on its merits at the ap
preaching term of circuit court.
Mr.. Dryer is made a party to the
suit for this reason. In each case tht
lamount OF tobacco contracted for i.
said to have been estimated at S,50t
pounds and the contract price wa!
