WALLINGFORD HONORS
 MEMORY OF LUFBERY
Town MOurns Loss of In- trepid Flying Ace, Killed
 in France.

New Haven, May 30.-Observance of Memorial Day throughout Connec- ticut not only had in it all elements of previous occasions of this nature but underlying it was the sentiment of patriotism brought into evidence by street parades of consider ble proportions, gatherings in public places, such as have marked only the national holiday in years gone by and exceptional attention paid to adorning the graves of Civil War Revolutionary war and Spanish war veterans.
 Of the gatherings, that at Walling- ford; which was a memorial service to Major Raoul Lufbery, the American aviator recently killed on the western front, was of particular interest It was a joint meeting participated in by clergy, officers and the people of the town. To it Governor Holcomb had
 been invited but as he could not at tend he sent a letter which was read
 by the Rev. Arthur P. Greenleaf as follows: Dear MT. Greenleaf:
 Your invitation of this day to at tend the memorial for Major Lufbery on Memorial Day is received. I re- ! gret that prior engagements will ap-
 parently preclude my presence in 1 Wallingford.
 ''It would be pleasn to me if I could thus recognize the supreme sac
 rifice of Major Lufbery. I had the flag on our state capitol displayed at half mast in his honor on Wednesday 1 of this week and again on Thursday
 in honor of Lieut.. James Pallache of 1 Pennington. Our best are sacrificing 1 their lives for the country and their
 deeds will be matter of history. They l have kept the faith and given their all. No man can do more.
 sincerely yours, M. H. HOLCOMB"

German Hammering at Point of Contact Between
 British and French Be- lieved to Be Bearing Fruit.

London, May 29.-The news from the front tonight is regarded here with utmost gravity. With Soissons In the hands of the enemy and Rheims closely threatened, the ques- ton whether the enemy's original in tention was to make the thrust on the Aisne front his main operation hardly arises. Yesterday the situation seemed to be more hopeful, from the fact that the two wings of the Allied line were holding firmly but the enemy has developed attacks of such strength on both the right and left that this is no longer the case.
 The salient created at the outset is being widened swiftly and, as one correspondent describes it, "the new battle is flooding over the ground of the Marne battle.' The Germans are in possession of Fishes, an i'm portant railway and highway junction. They claim 25,00o prisoners, although thus far they have said nothing about the number of guns captured.
 Dispatches from the front speak or fine cooperation between the French and British in the retirement. Con- siderable comment has been caused by the fact that Field Marshal Haig, who in the opening phase of the Aisne operations reported their progress, has ceased since yesterdays evening announcement to make any reference to them.
