There must be $4,000 wounded

"The percentage OF dead will ex-
ceed that of the Champagne offensive

there is no lull. and no chance to

Thousands OF dead and wounded
men lay In the open on the plain

the dead left to rot, while the killing
continues.
On the plain north OF Douaumont
the slaughter is frightful.
Surgeons reported that some regi-
ments on both sides had almost dis
appeared. so awful Is the battling.
All agree that never before has there
been known a cannonade comparable
to that by the Germans.
Though the tragedy of verdun Is
written on the faces Of the Partisan
men and women. they are neverthe-
less cheered by the latest advices in
dicating that the French left holds
the Pepper heights" while the CEN

from the ruins OF Douaumont.
Officers assert that the French have
accumulated so strong a reserve Of
ammunition for just such an Often

soon will be so great that the often

OF them coming from the east. Two
cars, carrying structural steel, have
LETT Minneapolis, and are coming
through on schedule time, having

Minneapolis will total Is cars. The
sugar-making machinery will come
from Alabama. Pennsylvania, and
Ohio makers. and 30 cars have been
listed for shipment as they are or
dered out by the factory builders.
From Pennsylvania will come two
cars Of pumps used in pumping the
beet Juice through the factory. and
five cars Of piping win be required.
The boilers will fill eight cars, and
the engines two cars. A certain
grade of fire brick needed will be OBJ
tanned in Pueblo, Colorado, seven
cars of which will come.
Much Of the material for the fac
tory will be obtained here, including
the timbers, while quantities of

to the alleged secret British orders,
found on the British steamer Wood

tack submarines. Surely by those
