During the week just ending there were 126 deaths, 105 of this number in Brooklyn. More than 800 cases were reported. The falling off in the number of fa talities and new cases during the last three days, although only slight is re garded as favorably by health experts. There were 24 deaths during the 24 hours ending at 10 o'clock Thursday morning, 22 on Friday and 18 to-day. Assistant Surgeon General W. C. Rucker, of the Federal Public Health Service, who reached New York to-< day from Washington to participate in conference here regarding means of preventing a general spread of the disease, was in consultation with Health Commissioner Emerson and other health officials and experts dur ing the greater part of the morning.

M. —To-day's news from the west ern front throws little light on the fighting during the last twenty-four hours, but the advices show that the fighting in the period immediately pre ceding was most intense at three points—at Thiepval, around Hem and the region eight to ten miles south of the Somme river In the Thiepval sector there was a succession of bitter attacks and coun ter attacks. The British several times succeeded by violent assaults in ob taining a foothold in Thiepval, but each time were ejected from the ruins of the village. Their losses are de scribed as "extraordinarily heavy." The only British success, and this is declared to be unimportant, was the capture of a salient of German trenches east of La Boisselle, only a short distance east of the original Ger man line. From Boisselle south ward the fighting was of a local char ade r. The Germans have thrown a strong dam around the British flood wave and isolated attempts to break the dam have been unsuccessful. Sweep Back and Forward The capture of the village of Hem was accomplished by the French only after three desperate attempts. The fighting at Estroes and Belloy-en-San terre also was of a house-to-house and hand- to-hand character. The losses, as lo be expected in this sort Qf fighting, were very heavy. The French finally remained masters of Belloy. Teutons Seem Unable to Get Reinforcements to Bolster Lutsk Front London. July 8. "Fighting on the Lutsk front continues day and night with little variation," says a dispatch from that city to the Times. "It is true, however, that the heavy guns of the Germans create great losses and and enable them frequently to take Russian positions, which are virtually without exception retaken by Russian counter attacks," the correspondent continues. "Probably the heaviest fighting has been near Rojltche, where the Ger mans had 80 heavy guns so placed as to bear on any point of the Russian line. The battles here continue with out intermission, heaping up German dead daily, but having no effect on our lines. There are indications that the enemy is unable to support this sector heavily with reinforcements, and he shows a tendency to rely in creasingly on his artillery superiority without which we should probably sweep him back rapidly. "The Germans appear to maintain an extraordinary morale in spite of their losses. One sees extremely few prisoners and the Germans fight until the last. "Austrian prisoners are unanimous in statements that Austria Is finished and that the entire nation is united in demanding peace at the earliest possi ble moment." Jellicoe's Report of German Losses Denied By Associated Press London, July S.—A Reuter dispatch from Amsterdam says that an official f-tatement issued in Berlin compares the estimate of German losses in the Shakerrak naval battle as contained in Admiral Jellicoe'e report with a report of the British admiralty on June 4 and declares: "In tact, the total losses of the German high seas forces during the fighting of May 31, June 1 and subsequently were only one battle cruiser, one older ship of the line, four small cruisers and ftvt torpedoboats." Negro Strikes Ticket Agent on Head With Hammer; Gets $26.25 By Associated Press Philadelphia, July 8. After dis abling Charles Morgan, night ticket agent in Broad street station of the Pennsylvania railroad, with a hammer early to-day a negro took $26.2 5 from a heap of $2,200 and fled. The thief was arrayed in the regu lation uniform worn by the station porters. All the porters were march ec'. before Morgan, but he was- unable to identify his assailant. Detectives believe that the robber was a dis charged employe. Morgan was counting the receipts when the man entered, saying he wished to clean up the office. While the agent was counting the money he was hit with the hammer. He* tried to reach a buzzer connecting with the police headquarters in the station, but the device was put out of order earlier In the day. Morgan was not seriously hurt by the attack. His wounds were treated by a physician.

This effort on the part of the British has led to the most furious righting. The Hower of the German army has been brought forward to oppose them. According to reports from Holland, Belgium has been denuded of German soldiers to meet the Anglo-French offensive, and the railway stations, even in the larger towns, are guarded by the older rerervists. In London the reports of Sir Doug las Haig are awaited eagerly, and al though the arrival of wounded tells the price which is being paid for the advance, the news of the small gains is being received with quiet satisfac tion. » Notwithstanding the enormous call 175 SHRINERS TO GO TO BUFFALO Zembo Patrol, Band, Members and Ladies Leave Monday Zembo patrol, Zembo band and members and ladies of the temple will leave Monday morning for Buffalo to attend the annual gathering of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine for North America, including Canada and Hawaii.

Xcaring Railway Junction In the east the Russians are making progress in their drives against the important railway Junctions at Dela tyn in Galicia, Kovel in Volhynia, and Baranovichi, north of Pripel marshes. In Galicia and Volhynia the Teutons admit the withdrawal of their line, the retirements having been forced by the rapid advance of the Russians in Galicia. According to unofficial re ports, Delatyn is surrounded on three sides, and the Russians, having cut the easternmost lines of retreat across the Carpathians, are on the flank of the Austrians' new defensive lines running through Stanislou and Halicz. General \on Bothmer may be compelled to fall back even farther before he reaches safety. Advancing all along the line of the Lutsk salient, the Russians are now threatening Kovel from three points.

Dr. Balliet was discussing the elect ive system. Following his remark about the Constitution he said: "Most of our political problems rest on a sociological and economic basis. Hence all high school pupils should lie required to study economics and so ciology as a fit for citizenship. Yet these subjects arc always elective and are rarely taught in high schools. All high school pupils should be required to study the problems of public health and other city problems and to take a course in ethics."
