rain and Auto
 Collide in Storm
TWO PEOPLE ARE KILLED AS TRAIN THROWS AUTO
 FROM TRACK.

BOHEMIAN, Mont, Sept 1O.- As the result of a collision of a train and an automobile at Gordon Siding, near here, to- day, two people are dead and another is so seriously injured that it is believed that death is only a matter of short time. All three of the people were passengers on the automobile, which was thrown from the track and splintered into a shape less mass by the force of the i'm pact. The train was the North Coast Limited on the Northern Pacific and was west bound.
 The collision occurred during the binding snow storm which prevails here today. The train was running at a good rate of speed, and the statement of the engineer is to the effect that he was keeping a sharp lookout ahead It is probable, however, that the roar of the OnCOming train was not heard by the peo- pie who were in the automo- bile on account of the high wind which was blowing. The bodies of the dead have been brought here

Bridge May Not Be
 Built This Season

R. J. Sommers, local superinten- dent of the Alaska Road commis sion, is in receipt of information to the effect that it is possible that the structural iron work for the bridge across the Cinema river here will not reach Fairbanks this fall In which event, of course, the bridge will not be constructed this winter Nor will it be constructed next summer, as the road commission will take no chance of having the false work washed away by fresh ct while the bridge is under con struction.
 The latest information about the bridge iron work is that it is com ing to Fairbanks via Skagway and the White Pass route. It is sup posed to have left Seattle for Skag- way It has been in the hands of arrival in Seattle, several weeks ago, and was originally supposed to have been shipped north about August 25. It can therefore readily be seen that the fault for it's non shipment does not lie with the road commission. And it is also prob able that the fault is not the trans portation company's, on account of the fact that the dock strike in Seattle this summer has kept all transportation plans from being fol lowed out.
 In wire received a few days ago by Mir Sommers, Col w. P. Richardson suggested that the bridge matter be turned over to the Fair banks Commercial club for investi- gation. This has been done, and Mr Sommers expresses himself as confident that the structural iron will reach Fairbanks yet this fall, or in time for the bridge to be con structed this winter

ALLIES ADVANCING ON WESTERN FRONT.

LONDON. Sept. 10.-In his re ports to the war office, General Sir Douglas Haig, who is in command of all of the British troops on the western front. says that the ad- vance of his army continues. Yes terday afternoon the British pushed their lines forward for a distance of three miles, forcing the Ger mans to evacuate Ginchy, and the advance continues.
 The fall of Combles is also immi nent. It is now being bombarded on three sides by the British artil- leTy, and it is expected that the de lending German forces will shortly beat a retreat.
 The British troops have occupied all of the ground between Highwood and Leuse, distance of about one mile. Six hundred yards of German trenches northeast of Pozierres have also been taken by the British.
 It is reported here from Paris that the French took 5000 German prisoners during the past week. Most of the prisoners were captured dur ing the terrific German counter at tacks which are being made almost hourly in an attempt to stem the tide of Anglo-French victory.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept 10.- The reply of Great Britain to the note sent some time ago relative to the British blacklist of a num- Der of American business firms, is due this month, according to state ments made in the state depart ment. And in the statement the procrastination policy of the British government is flayed, on account of Great Britain's refusal to meet Am erican demands because American merchants and business men have been acting concertedly with the allies, giving the British govern ment a reason for delaying it's re- ply to the note.
 It is stated at the state depart ment that no policy has yet been decided upon for dealing with Great Britain but congressional retaliatory legislation. It is stated, however, that American action will surely fol low unless England modifies the il- legal orders made in council

LABOR QUT FQR THE PRESIDENT:
 POLICY LAUDED
AMERICAN FEDERATION OPEL CIALLY ANNOUNCES STAND
 FOR PRESIDENT WILSON,

NEW YORK. Sept, 1O.-The Am erican Federation of Labor officially recognized the service the Wilson | administration has done for labor in it's official magazine of 1916, which has just been issued. Many reasons are given for what practi cally amounts to an endorsement of President Wilson and his poli- cies, among which are the follow ing:
 First-Under the Clayton law in- dustrial workers cease to be classi- fled as a commodity and the labor organizations are taken from under the control of the antitrust law.
 Second The legislation enacted prevents the abuse of injunction acts during labor disputes and the department of justice Is thuSwi5e prevented and prohibited from Us ing antitrust funds to prosecute ! labor.
 Third Increased appropriations for the children's bureau of the depart ment of labor,
 Fourth-The child labor law and the workmans compensation acts.
 Fifth-The Income tax
 Sixth-The eight-hour law for wo- men and children workers in the district of Columbia
 Seventh-The eight-hour law pass ed for employees under the Alaska Coal Lands act
 Eighth-Public construction of the Alaska railroad.
 Ninth-Industrial education of fa and ntharS 1iyrinfr in, districts.
 Tenth-The passage of the sea mans law, abolishing servitude
 Eleventh-The public construction of battleships.
 licensed officers. masters and pilots of ships to quit work and be pro tected when making reports to the government on the defects of yes sels.
 Thirteenth-The strengthening of the bureau of mines by providing for ten new experimental stations
 Fourteenth-The senatorial inves- tigation of industrial disputes in the West Virginia coal fields; the res. toration of peace there; the ad- vancement of wages of the coal miners and the securing of an eight hour day for them,
 It is felt in political circles here that the endorsement of the official magazine of the American Fedora tion of Labor practically amounts to the endorsement of President Wilson as the labor candidate for the presidency. The Democrats are jubilant over the announced policy of the publication. while the Re publican leaders are assailing it by trying to point out defects in the policy of the Democratic ad- ministratiOn.

 The Teutonic forces, composed chiefly of Germans and Turks, have retreated from the west bank of the Dniester river. Before they de parted they dynamited the remain ing notifications and the bridge across the Dniester at Halicz. Rus sian artillery which has just been established on the west bank of the Dniester is now shelling the retir- ing columns of Germans and Turks, and scouts report that the retreat ing army is losing thousands of men in this manner, as the army is ab- soMtcly unprotected and is power less to prevent the bombardment or to find shelter for the troops.

APPLE CROP
OF Australia Goes to Waste as
There Are No Ships to
Transport the Same.

MELBOURNE, Australia, May 81
The Australian apple crop which is
unusually big this year is seriously af-
fected because Of the dearth OF ships
for export. In the two chief apple
producing states. Tasmania and Vic
toria, nearly 100000 cases OF apples
have been harvested, but not more
than a million cases can be exported
There will thus be left nearly 100000
cases OF apples from these states
alone, and Australia must either eat
them or see them go to waste. There
being some 100000 people in the
every man, woman
and child in the country will have to
eat an apple day regularly for FIVE
months II the whole unexportable har-
vest is consumed.

climate, but in general We divide it
into two great classes; winter or soft
wheat. sown in the fall and harvested
during the hot summer months, and
spring, or hard wheat, sown early in
the spring and harvested late in the
summer
A grain OF wheat is composed Of four
parts: the husk, which consists of
five distinct layers Of bran; the cereal
layer, thin membrane inclosing the
starch cells, and the germ. During
the milling process the bran coats and
the germs are removed.
Graham -four is made by grinding
the entire grain to moderate grade
Of fineness. Entire wheat flour Is
made by grinding the grain and re-
moving the three outer coats. If the
germ we're not removed from the -four
the color and the keeping qualities
would be affected.
There are twenty-four steps in the
milling process, from the time the
wheat is weighed until 1t is sold as
-four The by-products, bran and mid
dlIngs are sold to the farmers for the
feeding of cattle.
There are over fifty varieties Of -four
made, but We must classify il chiefly
according to the kind Of wheat.
Flour made from spring wheat Is
commonly known as bread -four.
Bread -four is rich in gluten. Gluten
has the power of expansion after the
addition OF moisture and heat, and
flour rich in gluten, as bread flour is.
will produce light loaf of bread.
Flour made from winter wheat is
commonly known as pastry flour. Pas
try flour contains less gluten and more
starch than bread flour.
Bread and pastry flour may be readi-
" distinguished from each other.
Bread flour is creamy in color and
granular to the touch. Pastry flour
is white in color and smooth like corn

SLOWLY DYING

Death will come from starvation and
not from the disease from which he

entire stomach. closing up tho neck
OF the stomach and preventing food
from passing through. He is also
suffering from enlargement of tho ar

confined to his bed nt his home. When
first taken III Wallenbrock weighed
about 1G0 pounds. Since then he has
lost about thirty-Hve pounds and now
is losing weight at the rate OF two
pounds day,
Both day and night Wallonbrock
Graves food. but there Is no way in
which It can be gotten Into his stom-
