About this time the Prassnita

First Flying column followed and was
the first to enter after the city had
been taken by the First and Third
Siberian regiments. The sights we
saw cannot be adequately described.
More than 2700 wounded Germans
without having had any care whatever,
were lying or crawling about the
streets, hiding in Easements and out
buildings, evidently hoping that the
Germans would make a counter-attack
and re-enter the city. The bitches
were full Of dead and wounded as
were the open spaces about the city
and the outlying villages. Many of
our own men were scattered among
the German wounded. We found the
work almost beyond our capacity, far
from a railroad and with the troops
always moving on. We formed con-
centration camps at various points and
put students in charge of them In
these camps we collected 1850 wound

word of Klapaschnikoff, "the Ger

After the Germans left Heinoff the
population was destitute and facing
starvation. The Flying Column in the
succeeding days fed there 22,69S per-

MOLYbOENUM A AS
TUNGSTEN SUBSTITUTE
TECHNICAL JOURNAL DISCUSSES
TWO METALS THAT ARE MIN
ED IN NEVADA

One OF the most spectacular advan-
ces in commodity prices occasioned
by the war says the Engineering &
| Mining Journal has been in tungsten
both metal and ore. This has been
due to the extraordinary demand for
tungsten stefan essential consti.
tuent in making high-speed tool steel.
Before the war nigh-speed tool
steel was worth about 20 cents per
pound. tungsten about 60 cents per
pound and tungsten ore about Sc per
unit. At present high speed tool
steel fetches about SO per pound,
tungsten about IS per pound, and
tungsten ore about $50 per unit. Even
at the enhanced prices supplies are
scarce.
The fabulous price for tungsten ore
has stimulated prospecting for it
throughout North and South Ameri-
ca. This ore is not known to occur
in large deposits. The annual pro-
duction of concentrated ore in the
United States previous to the war
was only about 1,400 tons. However,
this ore has now become so valuable
that the discovery of a deposit that
affords a single carload is the finding
OF a fortune. A ton of ore assaying
so per cent tungsten trioxide - the
standard commercial grade - at $50
per unit is worth $4,000; carload of
40 tons would be 100000. So prec-
ious is this ore that the assay offices
are being secured for specimens. Bro
kers do not sneer at trade in one
pound lots. The purchasing agent of
the Crucible Steel company is very
grateful If somebody can give him 100
pounds.
contributory factor in the produc-
ton of this situation was the utter
stupidity Of the British authorities.
They fought the advance from the be-
ginning. When they were offered
some tungsten ore, they came back
with lower bid-trying to dicker in
what was not dickerIng market
and naturally failed to get what they
wanted. Then they practically COM
mandeered the supply of tungsten ore
in the British empire. appointing
official brokers and fixing a price of

war that would have been regarded
as fine price. but the producer in
Australia, Burma, Malaga and else
where does not think very much of
1t when the same grade of ore is
fetching $4,000 or so per ton IN Ameri-
ca.

Dill that there will be little or no com- the railroads is that they did not yield to President Wilson's suggestions in the first place and let the matter go before an impartial tribunal for set clement. Then there could have been no howl at all from the railroad man. agers. They were reluctant to sub init their side of the case to the In terstate Commerce Commission or some other equally as qualified body. Instead, they let the Congress face a dilemma that could have been solved to the national legislature. The four brotherhoods held the nation by the throat. The presidents of the rail roads had 1t in their power to loosen are crying because they must pay the penalty of their foolishness. The rail- road managers already have to sub init to fixing of rates for passenger dllu A1S1S1lI OuSl1eSS Dy lllo IuIoIStdIS Commerce Commission. They should have jumped at the opportunity to get this same commission to settle their labor question.
 It is recalled by old timers that the railroads have been having trouble with their employees for going on for ty years. The four great brother hoods of railroad trainmen enter into the situation only in this fashion,: They are taking care of the men who actually man the trains, passenger brakemen and conductors. The men who work in the round houses, who attend to the gates at railroad cross- ings, who walk the tracks in search of defective rails, who do odd jobs about the shops, have nothing in common with the crews. Nor do the men out side the brotherhoods get the same money or work the same hours. Eventually, these other laborers on the railroads will follow the lead of the trainmen and demand more pay. Then will the railroads be in for a good battle. Had the whole case been submitted to the Interstate Commerce Commission in the first place all hands would have come in for a better ap- portionment of wages a just standard 1zation of the wages for all classes of railroad labor. It knows where the money comes from, how much money the railroads get, and it should be able to tell just how much can be proper 1y expended for labor.

 "The tourists who frequented the monastery in the days before the wal were those who wished to take ad. vantage of its hospitable walls for $ nights lodging in order to be able to get an early start for delightful walk. ing excursions over the wooded slopes of Mont Noir and Mont de Lille or the Belgian frontier.
 "The Trappists are @ f1ourishing or. der of Cistercian monks who derive their name from the monastery of Ia Grande Trappe, at Soligny-la- -Trappc,
 100 miles southwest of Paris, where Armand Jean le B. de Rance insti- tuted sweeping reforms in the middle
 of the 17th century. De Rance, whd
 at the age of 10 had been made com
 mandatory abbot of this 12th-centuIy
 monastery of La Trappe, after being
 converted from a worldly life secured permission from Louis XIV to pension
 the old monks who had ceased to com play with their obligations. He es. tablished new group of Cistercians who adopted the most rigorous rules for fasting, devotional service and silence. The expulsion of the order , during the French Revolution only seemed to stimulate it's growth in it's city of refuge-Val Sainte, Switzer- land. A quarter of a century after
 their flight, the Trappists returned to
 their original home and in the course
 of the century which has intervened between that day and this the order has spread to many parts of the world, including a congregation of 50 Chinese monks, others m Japan, Asia
 Minor, Canada and the United States. Tn Natal the missionary Trappists ares particularly active in trying to civilize and convert the Kaff1rs and among their activities in this part of the

Washington, D. C.. Sept. 9.-"Many American tourists have stopped over night in the Trappist monastery where, according to report recent ly published in a Paris newspaper, the youthful Prince Maximilien died of wounds in the third month of the European war. After nearly two years of mysterious silence concerning the fate of this member of the royal family of Germany. 1t is now said that Hazebrouck Is the place of burial of the Kaiser's nephew. This town is onIy 8 few miles south of the Bel gian border and about IS miles from Ypres where the Germans in their first onward drive toward the sea were definitely checked by a flooding of the lowlands," according to today's war geography bulletin of the Ma tional Geographic society, issued from it's Washington headquarters:
 |. When peace is eventually declared a search will doubtless be made in the humble little cemetery of Haze brouck to recover the body of the royal sub-lieutenant. and carry it back to his mother the youngest sister of the Kaiser.
 'The fighting to the east of Haze brouck was exceptionally severe dur ing the early months of the war. for this French town of 12.000 inhabi tants Is a place of extraordinary strategic value, owing to the fact that it is the junction point of railroads leading to the North Sea port of Dun kirk, 25 miles to the north; to Arras, 70 miles to the south; to Calais. 38 miles to the northwest, and to Lille, 29 miles to the southeast. The Ger man advance never reached as far as Hazebrouck. The battle line now runs north and south between Lille and Hazebrouck, about 5 miles east of the latter.
 "The town of Godewa ersvelde l where Prince Mavimilien is supposed to have received his fatal wound, is the last village before crossing the French border into Belgium on the Hazebrouck-Ypre line. Above the little town towers the Mont des Cats,
