Monthly earnings of the corporation for the second quarter show steady decline compared with those of the first three months. June. for instance amounted to only s32,027,30O as against $44.S77,399 in March. This ap- parent reversal is accounted for, how ever, by the attitude adopted by the corporation. which rejected much net business to meet possible demands of the home government.
 The extent to which the corporation is preparing for all eventualities is disclosed in the statement that dur ing the first six months of the current year $43,000,000 was expended for new constructions and additions to it's many subsidiaries.
 On the bases of taxation already set aside, the Steel corporation expects to turn over to the government during the present year approximately $200,- 000,000. This exceeds total earnings of almost any year prior to 1916 but leaves balance. at the present rate, of almost 50 per cent applicable to the common stock
 The usual dividends of 1% per cent on the preferred stock and 1A per cent on the common were declared, with an "extra" 3 per cent on the com mon. as in the previous quarter.

and the certificates are payable on November 15. next. indicating that the second installment of the liberty loan will have been floated in the first half of November.
 Although the treasury has remained silent on that subject. the general i'm pression here Is that the loan will be offered in September and that 1t will be for a total of s3.000,000.
 The certificates are expected to play an important part in the financing of the second installment of the loan as they did in the case of the first tn- stallment
 When the first liberty bonds were offered $S6S. 100000 in certificates were outstanding. and when the fiscal year closed on June 30 total of $626,000,00G of this amount had been redeemed through the method of accepting the certificates at par value in exchange for bonds. This method has been pre- ferred by treasury officials because it puts a large part of the cash involved in bond payments actually into the treasury long before hand and min imizes the strain on the money mar ket at the time of final settlement.
 The new certificates are made ac- ceptable at par like the preceding is sues in payment for any United States bonds "issued and allotted hereafter and before the maturity of the cer- tificates" The fact that certificates are to bear interest at 3h per cent is taken to mean that the second install ment of the liberay loan. like the first. will be issued at that rate.
 Payments for the certificates will be made on August g. two days after the subscriptions close. The offering will be made through the reserve banks and in denominations of from $10G0 to s100.000.

Crown Prince Rupprecht: In Flanders the artillery again increased in the evening to the most extreme violence.

The infantry battle in Flanders has thus opened.
 Army group of the German Grown Prince: On the Chemin Des Danes the French attacked to the southeast of F1lain on a -kilometre front. At most points the thrust broke down before our defence. Two small points, where the enemy broke into our posi- tions are still in his possession.
 "In a strong assault German chas- seurs broke through Russian rear guard positions near Visnitz. The enemy was thereby forced to evacuate the Chere- mosh line, and retired toward tEe east Also in the wooded Carpathians in the course of the southern Sereth and on both sides of the Moldova and the Suczawa we gained ground in an at- tack toward the east Under pressure of this success, the Russians abandoned their first line positions in the Feste Canesce sector.

The River Zbrocz was crossed at many points by German and Austro- Hungarian divisions from above Husiatyn to south of Skala on front of 50 kilometres (31 miles) in spite of the bitter resistance of the enemy.

 GERMANS CONCENTRATING
 The entente allies are facing a large concentration of German artillery and fresh groups of men which were rushed up as soon as it became apparent some time ago that offensive was contem- plated in this region. In the last few days Grown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria has replaced many of his old divisions With fresh troops and others are being held in reserve.
 The entente allies, however, have great preponderance in artillery which is the vital factor Another thing most important to the British and French Is that they recently have established com plete superiority in aerial service, upon which the artillery work is dependent
 The British naturally have made great concentrations of guns and men for this offensive, and the French troops are CO., operating with them with their usual valor It Is known that the morale of the German troops along this front is not up to the old standard, but they still are strong and desperate battle is eXpected

GAME PRESERVE NEAR TULSA
Ideal Location Has Been Found in
Usage Hills; Seek Land Title.

One of the game preserves for
which appropriation was made by the
last legislature will be located some
where In the vicinity Of Tulsa, George
A. Smith, state game warden, who was
in Tulsa yesterday, said.
An ideal location for the farm, ui'
which would be built fish hatchery,
and where the propagation of gamu
birds would be carried out. is in the
Usage hills. Mr.. Smith said, but this
has not been definitely decided on.
The difficulty with such location is
In getting title to suitable tract OF
lend.
The sixth legislature appropriated
$4,000 to establish four or more pre-
serves. McCurtain county has been
mentioned as the location for one and
Il is probable that this will be de-
cided upon. The Spavinaw hills. in
Delaware or Mayes counties, is beins
considered as the location for another.
Both the new fish hatcheries at
Armstrong and Medicine Park are
