that name and this city will become in
name as well as in fact the greatest
city in the state. bar none. AS we are
now. with our prestige outside divided
into parts. we never will amount TO
anything. AS a matter of fact, neither
end of the city is really on the map
and never will be. Indiana Harbor has
no existence as a corporate city and
never can be widely known. East Chi
cago as name is not on train sched-
ules and loses its identity really in
the name itself.
With Indiana as the name of the
city, Indiana Harbor wiz have very
little 10 lose as it's local identity will
inevitably be maintained"

St. Johns, N. F.. July 15.-The Nor weGian American liner Kristianiaftord carrying 1900 passengers from an American port via Halifax to Norway. ran ashore today seven miles west of Cape Race, on the southeastern coast of Newfoundland. It was necessary to remove the passengers, all Of whom landed safely at Portugal Cove. The liner lost her bearings during the night in heavy rainstorm which was ac- companied by fog.
 As there is no accommodation at the landing place for any large num- Der of persons, prompt measures were taken to have the rescued passengers brought to this city by train
 Several steamers from this port and the Canadian government steamer Stanley. which was reached by wire less at sea, have been dispatched 10 the assistance of the stranded liner Wireless dispatches. from the Kris7i- anafjord indicated that she was badly dama ged.

ELIMINATION OF LOSS
 IN MEAT FOOD SUPPLY
Department of Agriculture Asks Co.,
 operation of Meatmen.

Washington, July 15.-To conserve the country's meat food supply. the de- partment of agriculture has asked CO., operation of proprietors and operators of meat establishments Tn the elimina - tion of loss.
 The prevention of loss or misuse is of such importance to the nation that everyone should deem it to be his duty to aid in it's complishment." " says the department. Tt is the pur- pose of the bureau of animal hus- bandry (which has charge of the meat inspection service) to meet it's re- sponsibility but it is not proposed to achieve conservation through a sur render of the purposes for which in- Spection is maintained.
 Perhaps no single item merits more attention than the conservation of fats. In some cattle departments no attempt is made to conserve fat for food pur- poses and in a considera ble number of establishments variable quantities of fats are diverted from possible edible to inedible products.
 Some sources of waste enumeTa ted by the department are the utilization of cattle passed for sterilization for the production of lard only, the rendering of cattle, passed for sterilization into inedible products, the spelling of fresh meats in cure through delayed or mad equate refrigeration and the practice of leaving excess fats attached to dressed meats.
 Announcement is made that here after sound COW udders may be pa>sed for food purposes under certain con ditions.

With the Advantage Resting Mainly With the Forces
 of General Petain
HEAVY FORCES AGAINST FRENCH LINE DEFEATED
French Win All Night Artillery Battle Along the Chemn des Danes and Capture Prisoners-British Successfully Positions Russians Drive Austrians and Turks Are Forced From Their Positions Near Van.

In Flanders at various points the British and Germans continue to car ry out intensive artillery duels and the British to make successful raids on German positions.
 Russians Drive Austrians.
 Although rain and swollen streams are mitigating against the fast prose cution of the Russian offensive in Ga licia, the troops of General Brussiloff nevertheless have driven the AuStrians from positions southwest of Kalusz and taken more than a thousand pris- oners and a number of guns. Appar- ently the Austro German lines are stiffening as the result of the arrival of achievements for Petrograd rec ords the repulse of attacks along the Dobrovdfany-Novica front and says that the enemy has gone on the offen- sive along the LoInnica River near Perehinsko and is stubbornly resisting the Russians on the Slivkiiason sector.
 Turks Driven Out.
 There has been little activity on any of the other fronts, although the Rus sians near Van, in Turkish Armenia have driven out the Turks from sev- eral positions. It Is not improbable that Rumania again may soon become an important theatre in the war as the Berlin official communication an- nounces that an increase in the artiI- lerv activity at various points is mo- ticeable.

THE DRAWING OF LOTS
 UNDER SUBSCRIPTION LAW
May Be Accomplished by the End of
 the Present Week.

Washington, July 15.-When the drawing of lots under the selectiVe conscription law will be carried out re- mained uncertain tonight, but war de- partment officials hoped completion of local exemption machinery throughout the country, on which the great lottery now is waiting, would be accomplish ed by the end of the week. Most of the states have reported their organ iZation complete and in the others only scattered sections remain to be heard from.
 Officials are making their plans in the belief that the drawing will be possibly by next week at the latest.
 All the procedure for determining the order of liability of the ten mil lion registrants has been made pub lie except the method of the actual drawing.
 Reports persisted today that the numbers would be placed in non- transparent capsules and drawn from a glass receptacle by Secretary Baker Or some other war department official. This report, however, was unconfirIned.

TO BE INTRODUCED ON REAs-
 sEMBLING OF REICHSTAG.
FOURTH YEAR OF WAR
Declaration is Made That "Germany Took Up Arms in Defense of Its Lib erty and Independence and for the Integrity of Its Territories"-Reich- stag Labors for Peace and a Nut uaI Understanding and Reconciliation Among the Nations"

Copenhagen, July 15.-The reich stag's proposed peace resolution which, according to the Berlin Tage- blatt, a majority of the block of the center. radicals and socialists decided Friday evening to introduce unchang- ed upon the reassembling of the reich stag. reads as follows:
 AS on August 4. 1914, so on the threshold of the fourth year of the war the German people, stands upon the assurance of the speech from the throne-'We are driven by no lust of conquest
 Germany took up arms in defence of it's liberty and independence and for the integrity of it's territories. The reichstag labors for peace and g mu tual understanding and lasting recon citation among the nations. Forced acquisitions of territory and political. economic and financial violations are incompatible with such a peace
 The reichstag rejects all plans aim ing at all economic blockade and the stirring up of enmity among the peo. the seas must be assured Only an economic peace can prepare the ground for the friendly association of the peoples.
 "The reichstag will energetically promote the creation of international juridical organizations. So long. how ever as the enemy governments do not accept such a peace: so long as they threaten Germany and her allies with conquest and violation, the German people will stand together one man, hold out unshaken and fight until the rights of itself and it's allies to life and developments are secured. The German nation united is unconquerable.
 "The reichstag knows that in this announcement it is at one with the men who are defending the fatherland; in the heroic struggles they are sure of the undying thanks of the whole people,

RUSSIAN SUCCESSES
 NOT EXAGGERATED.
The Army is Better Equipped With
 Heavy Artillery Than Ever.

-Copenha gen. July 15.-While the Austrian and German semi official dis cussions continue to treat the Russian successes south of the Dniester river as unimportant and local, and casually call towns like Halicz hamlets, the Tageblatt's correspondent at Austrian headquarters says it is idle to deny that the offensive has passed the sta ge of initial successes and that the front north of the Dniester is affected by the decisive changes south of the river"
 Neither Lemberg nor KoveI is yet threatened, says the correspondent, but the Russian advance is moving toward the important petroleum fields at Drohobycz, south of Lemberg.
 He adds it is now clear that the revolution has affected the offensive power of the Russian army less than had been believed and that the army is better equipped with heavy artillery than ever before.

DRAWN INTO THE WAR

Zurich, July 15. - The Austrian reichsrat was thrown into an uproar on Saturday when the former Czech minister, Herr Praschek, declared the hate of the entire world was directed not against Austria, but against Ger many, and that Austria should detach herself from her ally, says a Vienna despatch.
 How are de to obtain peace" de- manded Herr Praschek, If we cling to the German side ?' Must we con- tinue to sacrifice our interests to the expansion of Germany? Must we con tinue to submit to the German mili- tarism that has drawn us into this war 9?
 The speaker declared that Czech deputies had been imprisoned for at tempting to bring about an alliance of Austria with Russia and France. and added that if they were to be stigma tized as traitors then all Czachs who believed similarly should be so stigma tiZed.
