The next process is turning the

has to be built up IN such a way
that the grains VIII he uniform

San FranciscO.-The war in Europe
has been fought over on a reduced
though bloody scale in the streets of
Picking, according to G. A. Jauregui, a
young millionaire from the Argentine,
arriving here with his bride after a
wedding journey through the Orient
The conflict was staged, said Jauregui,
who obtained his information from the
Spanish ambassador at Picking, whes,
the legation guards of the Austrian
and Italian legations, marching
through the streets met.
The commands came to an abrupt
halt, and then, before their officers
could stop the men, a battle occurred
in which rifles, swords and bayonets
were used. The combatants were fin
ally parted by their officers after
many had been wounded.
AS a result of the battle, the en-
bassies agreed to set apart certain
DAYS of the week on which the troops
of one of the belligerents may go out
into the streets, while the other side
stays within the embassy walls.

VERY SHORT, GERMANY ADMITS.

have been added to the German rolling
stock.
AS the war has gone on the condi-
ton of this rolling stock has deterior-
ated steadily, and scarcely any Of 1t
has been replaced. A shortage of oils
has not allowed the proper care Of
what cars there are; hot boxes on both
passenger and freight cars are every
day occurrences. The engines have
now to draw such heavy loads that
they are going to pieces faster than
they used to.
Feed and fodder conditions for Ger
man live stock improved somewhat
through last years harvests, but only
somewhat. The cattle are still thin
and Scraggly. The mich cattle give
less than ever, and there is little milk
that can be spared for cheese. The cat
tie, when slaughtered, give less meat
than they used to, and so horse meat
has had to be resorted to in a degree
that is unprecedented.
The available supply of swine has
never recovered from the original Ger
man mistake of 1914 and 1915, when
millions of pigs were slaughtered to
save the food that they devOured, only
thereby reducing the supply of fat to
dangerous point. The Germans have
never forgiven themselves for that
shortsightedness.
The same in a measure holds true
of sugar. There had been an oversup-
ply in 1914, and solemn warnings went
out not to plant so much land to sugar
beets and more to grain. The peas
antry followed the advice too literally,
and Germany awOke to find that she
had hardly more than enough sugar
for purposes other than food. So the
big cities are in part living on saccha-
rine now, and there isn't enough
of that.
The Understanding process began
