Crichton-Browne. who stands in the
forefront of English authorities on
mental and nervous diseases, says
that one of the saddest results of
the war will be a great increase in
the number of lunatics. Addressing
the annual meeting of the asylum

CONDITIONS IN
ORC PROMISING
MANAGER THOMAS r. MANNING
OPTIMISTIC AS TO ITS
FUTURE

Were it not for the fact that the
Orc is one of the older properties,
conditions there at present would at
tract unusual attention" said Gen.
eral Manager Thomas F. Manning in
speaking of results at present being
obtained in the exploratory work at
depth. Taking all conditions into
consideration" continued Manager
Manning, 81 am highly pleased with
the outlook for the property"
Mr.. Manning expressed himself as
particularly impressed with the show
ing revealed by the lateral work on
the 500 level. In the great quartz
mass that has been revealed by recent
a southwest drift has been
started from the west crosscut off the
main north drift at a point about 65
feet from the shaft. The new drift
is advancing along the shale forma-
ton Immediately beneath the quartz
mass, in which seams of mixed quartz
and tale, assaying as high as $40
per ton, have been disclosed.
The main south drift from the
shaft on the anne level, which is out
100 feet, is revealing interesting con-
ditions. In the west crosscut on the
700 level, work is going ahead, but
only slow progress is being made on
account of heavy ground which ne
cessitates close timbering. At a
point $50 feet from the shaft, the
crosscut is exposing a highly miner
allied territory.

British Defeated in Fierce Battle.
Eleventh Hour Attempt to lnAu-

Rotterdam. Sept. 2S.-The German press
already Is alleging a heavy defeat for the
English and is minimizing the allies
gains. There is no mention made of the
Germans having lost any guns except
mine throwers.
A German commander in the west. how
ever. told the correspondent of kolnische
Zeitung it was a tremendous attack and
was carried out in extreme force, sup
ported by artillery fire such the Ger
mans never before had experienced There
would, however. be no decisive result to
the allied offensive, he said.
According to German wounded and
soldiers, who just have been relieved,
the hand-to-hand fighting in the trenches
was marked by extraordinary fury.
These men declare they will never SET
through"
Der Montag attempts to prove that
nothing serious has happened. 1t says:
The result of the first two days
fighting doubtless was in our favor. Near
Ypres the English were driven back with
great loss without having obtained any
advantage. That they were beaten is
proven by the number of guns captured
by us
The Vossicne Zeitung says:
The hope of the allies was to impress
