A New Hioh Speed Steel.

Washington, July 51.-A new process
for the manufacture of high speed
steel, in which no tungsten. molybde-
mum, cobalt or vanadium is used, is
described i'll a N report by

was an Indispensable alloy, it's use in
normal times running as high as II to
"a per cent.
1t is said that the ingredients of the
new steel are freely obtainable whcr-
ever steel is manufactured. 1t is also
said to be suitable only for turning.
planning and slotting tools, all of which
can be made by casting. 1t Is not suit
able for twist drills or milling cutters.
/ The tools in which it can be used, how.
ever. take up about 10 per cent of the
entire consumption of steel for machine
tools. Patents in other countries arc
being applied for. and it is proposed
soon to place the process before stee
makers in this country.

Importance. Another claim on which

Nav Chance Navv Uniforms,

Washington, July 31.-The navy de-
partment contemplates changing the
uniform of the enlisted force. with spe-
cial reference to the apparel of landing
parties.
The use of white clothing obviously
furnishes a better target than either
blue or khaki. and naval officers do not
see why the uniform of enlisted men
should not serve as a protection instead
of making them conspicuous as tar
gets. Expert opinion is divided be
tween a shade of blue or olive drab OF
grayish green.

That it was not the intention of the

THE PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

Very little of special importance has
occurred in the European war this week.
There have been no changes on the bat.
tie lines that show up on the maps.
The casualty lists of the British forces,
during the activities of the last three
months, show losses of from 5000 to
1000 daily. On the supposition that
these losses are about the same as suf-
fered by the other armies in the field Of
action. and that Russia, France, Ger
many and Austria have each lost the
same. and that the smaller nations like
Turkey, Bulgaria, Roumania, etc, at
least together equal those of one of the
larger nations, then to get the aggregate
losses of all the fighting foes we must
multiply the losses of the British by six,
which makes the astounding total Of
from 10000 to $4,000 daily. Of course
this is but rough estimate but neces-
sarIly it must be approximate, and goes

sooner or later for want Of men il for no
other reason. Our neighbors across the
line are mourning the loss of very
large number of their sons and brothers
