BERMUDA HIGH IS ABOUT DONE FOR

Canadian Air Invasion Brings Relief to Northern States—Worst Heat Wave In Fifteen Years. Washington, July 31.—A Canadian high pressure area, bringing down cool dry air from the Canadian northwest, swept along the whole of northern United States today and afforded some lelief from the hedt wave, which has been the worst in fifteen years. Roughly, the new high pressure area brought a drop in temperature everywhere north of a line due west from New York. Below this line its effects were felt in some districts with a change of a few degrees.
