The Gennnna last night shifted thotr at

land delivered several violent attacks, pro
leaded by liquid fire between Avoucourt and
2X111 304. the War omce announced.
Alt these attacks were repulsed, the
'nemy suffering frightful tosses, ibut eaBt
let Hill 304 tho Oertnans carried tho first
line of ft fortified work. In which nit the
JS-ehch occupants had been burled. The
Jfrcnch recaptured the work by a most bril
liant counter-attack.
The Germans bceamo active yesterday
Ions tho Belgian front, but a German nt-
artillery, supporting tho Belgian lines, dis
persed three enemy reconnolssance parties.
The text of tho ofllclal communique fol
!Jows: In Belgium yesterday, otter 23 hours
of artillery preparations, the Germans
attacked a salient of our lines on tho
Uleuport-Lombardtzydo highway. Our
counter-attack Immediately ejected tho
nemy from a trench element which ho
had entered,
Between Chaulnes and Royo a strong
reconnolterlng force of tho enemy was
dispersed by our flro before It could
approach our trenches.
Between the Olse and tho Alsne two
other enemy patrols attempted to sor
tie, ono at Quennevlcros and tho other
northeast of Vlngro. They were Imme
diately checked.
In Champagne a small grenado at
tack by the enemy upon one of our ad
vanced posts west of Butto des Mesnll
-was easily repulsed.
On the left bank of tho Mouse the
Germans made numerous night attacks
On our positions beyond Avocourt wood
and east of Hill 304. In the latter place
' they launched terrific attacks against
our salients, preceded by violent bom
bardments and accompanied by liquid
Are. Between Avocourt wood nnd 23111
304 all theso attacks wore checked by
our curtains of flro. East of Hill 304,
after, a series of violent assaults, the
enemy succeeded In gaining a foothold
In a fortified work In our first line.
The garrison was enveloped by the
terrific bombardmont. At 4 o'clock this
morning a brilliant counter attack by
our troops enabled us to regnln the
position and to drive tho Germans out.
On tho right bank the bombardment
was very violent in the sectors north of
Souvllle, Tavannea, and Chenols, with
out any Infantry action."

TEUTONS POUND RUSSIAN
LINES ON THE DVINA
.TEUTONS GROW RESTIVE
UNDER CONTINUOUS FIRE
AND ATTACKS OF BRITISH
LONDON', June 30.
According to the Paris Petit Journal, the
Germans are compelling the civil population
lo evacuate the three French cities of Lille,
Zteubalx and Tourcolng, which He just be
liind the German linos In the west along
the front where, as last night's ofllclal bul
letin announces, the British artillery and
Infantry aro manifesting steadily Increas
ing activity.
The Petit Journal says Premier Brland
is preparing a formal protest to all neutral
rations against this action of the German
military authorities on the ground that It
is contrary to The Hague conventions.
Last night's official bulletin Indicates
that the raids Into the German lines, which
have been going on Incessantly for the last
four days, have not only been Increasing
In number, but have been carried out on a
steadily wider scale and with more and
more considerable results In tho way of
German prisoners, i
At the same time the British artillery
has never for ono momunt let up in Its
steady, relentless pounding of the German
lines. Dispatches from headquarters say
the results of the tremendous artillery Are
are becoming more and more evident In tho
destruction of the German fortifications.
The test of tho official statement of the
British War Office followu:
During tho last 24 hours a large
number of our reconnolterlng and raid
ing parties entered the enemy's trenches
at various points along tho entire front
of the British army.
AH these enterprises were success
ful In achieving their object. Inflicting
heavy casualties on the Germans and
capturing prisoners and war stores.
In several Instances our troops re
mained for a considerable period in the
German lines, repulsing counter-attacks
.cross the open.
One of these enterprises took place
after the discharge of gas. Our troops,
entering the German trenches, found
a. considerable number of dead. Our
casualties were Insignificant.
The artillery of both sides has been
active along the front. Hostile trenches
were much damaged In many places.
Tho intermittent discharge of Binoko
and gas has aroused the activities of
the enemy's guns and caused him to
disclose his battery positions.
A dispatch last night from British head
Quarters says this German return Are has
bean generally Ineffective although In places
the German guns have been very active.
They have used a large number of lachry
matory (tear-produclng) shells.
The Incessant British raids, this dispatch
ays, striking thotGerman lines now here,
now' there, has had the effect of keeping the
Germans on the alert everywhere, and
there are Indications that they are becoming
nervous under the constant strain. The
Australian troops, the Highland Light In
fantry, the Lancashler Fusiliers and the
Llverpools are mentioned as regiments
which have been particularly active and
uccessful in raiding parties.
Continued from Vnte One
the doom of the Austro-IIungarlan army
now rotreatlng toward tho Trnnsylvanlun
passes, as the lattei would then bo deprived
of all hope of rejoining tho northern Aus
trian wing. Moreover, the Ilusslan success.
If followed up by n further advance, will
straighten out General HrusllolT's lino so
as to consolidate his centre and right wing,
ntltomatlcaly forcing tho Gcrmnns to fall
back In Volynla and abandon Kovol.
TKUTONS ADMIT ItirmKAT.
Vienna admitted last night that "enst of
Kolomca" tho ItusslatiH mndo "massed at
tacks" on n front of 2S miles nnd that "at
numerous points" the nttnekers succeeded
In advancing. In tho evening, however, it
Is asserted, tho lltmslans wero forced to
evacuato "a portion" of ttio AUBtro-Ilun-garlan
front near Kolomca and southward.
Tho statement refers to hnnd-to-hnnd con
flicts nnd says "desperate- fighting" la In
progress.
Tho Austrian War Ofllco declares Rus
sian attacks on tho Dniester lino wero re
pulsed north of Obertyn, which Is 13 miles
northeast of Kolomca. In Volhynla tho
situation Is asserted to bo quiet.
Tho total of the Czar's captives Is now
estimated at not fewer than 205,000 men,
an army which would stand tho Teutonic
Allies in good stead at this time, when
Allied offensives on three fronts are prom
ised. Of far greater significance, however. Is
tho new dent forced Into tho defenders'
lines In Gulicia. Kovel nnd Lembcrg aro
tho two objectives of tho Ilusslan drive.
Their capture means retreat of tho Ger
mans to tho lino of tho Bug In Poland nnd
tho loss of a largo part of Gnllcin to the
Czar's armies.
THE STItUGGLD FOB. KOVEL.
On tho Kovel front tho Buesluns are not
advancing. Berlin claims that the Ger
mans aro slowly forcing the enemy back
around Sokul. But In this sector a salient
has been driven Into tho Teuton trenches.
Husslan strategy Is, of courso, not to force
an advance until such an attempt Is frco
from danger of an enveloping counter
movement. Before General Bruslloff begins n new
drive to clear the ten miles to noel, ho
must straighten his lino to tho south in
Gnlicla. It Is hero that tho Russians must
again break through Austrian lines lines
which have always crumpled before Ilus
slan attacks. In Volhynla Germans block
the way and German lines hnvo always
stood firm against tholr Eastern enemy.
Thus the Czar's generals aro hammering
at tho Austrian lines and forging through
them. Lcmberg will be won not by an at
tack from the north, but by a flanking
movement from the south, through Koto
rata. When Kolomea falls control of the
railway to Lemberg will be laid oDen tn
tho Invaders, with this road wrested from
tho Austrlans tho latter would bo compelled
to fall back to tho Styr-Lemberg line, and
tho fall of the Gallclan capital would bo
assured. Then tho path would bo open for
a new sweep over tho Carpathians.
In Bukowlna, too, the Russians are ad
vancing, Tho occupation of Klmpolung,
on the border railroads, opens all routes Into
Hungary. Thus the Rumanian frontier of
Bukowlna Is completely In control of the
invader. Bucharest cannot look with in
difference on these Important successes, nnd
tho long-expected advent of Rumania into
tho war on the side of the Entente Allies
may soon be brought to pass.

PLAN FOR MUCH BUSINESS
Milliners End Excellent Season; Trade
Generally Good, Says Dun's Review
Manufacturers of bovs' nml mpn'n rinth.
Ing aro making extensive preparations for
much business during the autumn and win
ter acusuna, accoraing to the weekly ro
vlew of trade of It. Q. Dun & Co. The rc
viow also says that milliners are closing a
very successful spring season and other
business generally Is good.
It Is, In part, as follows:
"Conditions In the cotton yarn trade re
main about tho same as for tho last few
weeks. Tho wool market Is still firm and
prices show an upward tendency. Those
holding stocks do not appear anxious to
sell, except at full prices. Manufacturers
are disposed to operate with care at pres.
ent prices, but as they need more or less
wool a fair business is being dono at full
prices.
"Manufacturers of men's and boys' cloth
ing say prospects are good for fall and
winter business and prices remain firm.
Itaw materials continue to advance. Job
bers of hosiery, underwear and notions re
port the season a satisfactory one, although
In some lines it has been difficult to supply
the demand made upon them.
"The Iron and steel market shows a fall
ing off to some extent as regards new bus!
ness, but production of orders In hand con
tinues large, and furnaces and plants are
operating to full capacity. Cxport trade
continues heavy and the falling oft appears
chiefly In domestic orders,
"dood orders are In hand for locomotives
from foreign sources and ship yards con
tinue busy.
"The leather market continues active and
prices are firm and high, aimed kid deal
ers and manufacturers report trade active
and a good demand for all grades. Shoe
dealers report a moderate trade, but prices
continue firm. Millinery dealers are closing
the spring season and report a fairly satis
factory volume of business.
"In the lumber market conditions have
not changed materially; prices have de
clined, which has caused cancellation of or
ders. The embargo tn New York remains
about the same, while locally conditions
have Improved In this respect, although the
yards are still experiencing difficulty re
garding labor,
"In the coat market the anthracite line
remains quiet and no change has been
noticed. In the bituminous line,, conditions
are Improving and the demand Is greater
than the ability to supply and sales have
been restricted, Contract tonnage Is out
of the question, owing to high prices.
The large cigar manufacturers report
a fair trade from out of the city and local
business is said to be In good condition.
"Collections are still reported a little slow.
Wholesalers and jobbers n groceries report
business in their line satisfactory; collec
tions, however, are Inclined to be somewhat
tiff."

LONDON, Juno 30. The Italians have
oegun a Btrohg offensive nlong tho lsonzo,
whero there has been comparative quiet for
soverat months. In conjunction with tho
now operations on this front below Qorltz
the Italians also have maintained their
counter-offonslvo between tho Vnl Sugann
nnd tho Val Lngarlnn on tho Trontlno front.
The reoponlug of tho campaign for the
possession or uoriza was preceded by n
violent bombardment of various parts of
tho Austrian front on tho Doberto plateau,
n cannonade which Incrcnped In power In
tho evening, when heavy guns wero concen
trated ngnlnst Monte San Mlchclr, on tho
northern edge of the plateau, nnd tho San
Martlno region, Just to tho south of tho
height. Finally this heavy bombardment
Was extended until It covered tho wliolo
front on tho plateau and was followed by
nn Infantry attack.
In describing theso operations tho Aus
trlan War Ofllco Bays that nil tho nttneks
wero repulsed, but thnt violent lighting Is
still In progress on tho Monto Snn Mlchele
San Martlno front and to tho enst of Ver
megllano, on tho southwestern edgo of the
plateau.
At the same time tho Italians launched
an attack ngalnst tho Bouthotn part of tho
Podgorn. positions nt tho Gorizia bridge
head. Tho Austrian statement says that
tho Itnllnns penetrated tho Austrian posi
tions here but were drhen out again.
Tho Italian nttack was made, the Aus
trian report says, nfter n "terrific artillery
engagement," nnd big battles developed on
the Carso Plateau near Motile San Mlchele
San Martlno nnd east of VermeRllano (A
lino from San Mlchelo to Vcrmcgllnno
would cover the entire width of the
Carso Plateau from north to south, a dis
tance of nbotit the miles San Martlno
would bo near the centre of tho line.)
Theso battles continue. It Im explained,
but the Italian nttnclts are being "partially"
repulsed by countor-uttnclcs.
Tho Italian report on this battle on tho
Carso (which lying as It does In a bend of
tho lsonzo just south of Ooerltz, ImH been
the scene of tho terrific lighting In every
Italian offence attempt) unys merely:
"On the f'nrao Plateau our Infantry huc
ceeded In penctrutlng and occupying some
of the enemy's trenches. During .lime 23
wo captured GCG prlioncrs. Including 21
olllccrs, nnd also took four machine guns
nnd arms, ammunition and material."
