ITALIANS CONTINUE DRIVE
 OVER BAINSIZZA PLATEAU
 DESPITE AUSTR0 RESISTANCE
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

With Monte Santo securely in their possession, the Italians are continuing their drive eastward over the Bain- siZZa plateau, notwithstanding the violent resistance of the Austrians. Italian airmen are lending wonderful aid to General Cadorna's forces. drop ping bombs or using their machine guns with telling effect on troop con- centrations behind the line. The num- Der of prisoners taken by the Italians is mounting, the latest report showing that 500 officers and 23,000 men have been captured. The capture of war stores by the Italians has been enor- nous, including guns of all calibres, and arms, ammunition, horses and mo- tor tractors.
 On both sides of the Mouse in the Verdun sector French troops continue their gains against the Germans, hay ing captured positions over a front of two and one-half miles to a depth of two-thirds of one mile, taking the Posses and Beaumont wood and reach ing the envirOns of the villages of Beaumont and Bethincourt
 The Germans in counter attacks twice have endeavored to retrieve lost ground on the heights of the Mouse, but each time met with repulse and heavy losses.
 Aside from artillery duels, especially severe east of Ypres and in the neigh borhood of Lombaertzyde, there has been little activity on the British front. Field Marshal Haig's men, however, have carried out several small trench raiding enterprises with success and repulsed German counter attacks. Evidently the German advance to- ward Riga, Russia's big port and naval base on the Baltic, has ceased, for neither the German nor Russian off, cial communications mention the Op- l erations in this region. To the south. however the Russian and Russo- 1 Rumanian armies are keeping up their | strong resistance against the Germans. Near Vladimir Volynski German at tacks have been repulsed, while on the
 Rumanian front attempts by the leu | tonic allies to advance have been l frustrated.
 At Moscow has begun the eXtraor- | dinarv council upon which the fate of
 Russia as factor in the war probably depends. Premier Kerensky and other
 members of the government are in at
 tendance. M. Kerensky in his open
 ing address gave warning to those who | are opposed to the government, declar- l ing that all attempts with armed force
 against the peoples power will be | crushed with blood and iron"

 Tt is the intention of the food ad- ministration to adopt measures which will effectually assure that the price agreed upon shall not be exceeded dur ing the coming year even on imported sugar and it is hoped that as soon as the Cuban crop is available the price will be less than $2.25.

American Soldiers Are
 Ll0nlzed By London Folk

tian Association which was thronged to the doors.
 The American soldier is a mystery to the Englishman. Those in London today having just been paid, had their pockets full of money, which they were anxious to spend. They dined at the best hotels. some of them occupying tables adjoining those at which British officers were seated. The only diff culty which they experienced with English money had to do with the value of the coins, to which they are as yet unaccustomed.
 They passed over pound notes in payment for small purchases and took back handful of change without counting it.
 Whats the use of counting it?' said one. "We could count the num- Der of coins. but that's all So we just trust to luck"

Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.- Hearty endorsement of the admin istration's soldiers and sailors in surance bill is given by Theodore Roosevelt in a letter to Julian w. Mack, made public here tonight with letter from Judge Mack to Secretary McAdoo.
 "I have read the bill for com pensating and insuring the soldiers and sailors with the keenest in terest," Colonel Roosevelt wrote. 1t marks great step forward. It puts the United States where it ought to be, as standing in the fo -efront among the nations in doing justice to our defenders.
 "The bill is a real and construc- tive measure. believe it should be passed and should go into effect when the first men of the new national army are called out. know of nothing more important than to lift the fears of men that their families may become objects of charity, and to hearten the wives ana children and parents of this country to respond bravely and gladly to the nations caII.'

Austrians Retreating

ROME, Aug. 26.-The battle between the Italians and the Austrians still rages with the Austrians stubbornly retreating at many points, including the lower Carso. Numerous messages from the front received by ministers. indicate that the Italians are making swift strides toward victory When asked today for an expression of his opinion of the results thus far achieved in the battle Lieutenant General Count Cadorna, commander-in-c chief of the Italian forces, smilingly replied:
 We are doing nicely, thank you"
 The total losses of the Austrians from all causes are reckoned at nearly 100000, the most important which, in the Carso region, have not yet been of ficially announced. It is said that among the losses of the Austrians are many men of the famed Twelfth divi- sion, popularly known as the Iron di- vision
 The Italians have made a further advance on the Isonze front north of Gorizia, closely pursuing the Austrians, the war office announces. Austrian counter attacks on the Cargo were re- pulsed. The number of prisoners has been increased to more than 23,000 in addition to what great amount of booty has been captured.

C. P. R. STRIKE IS SETTLED DEMANDS
 GRANTED TO MEN

Word arrived in Juneau this morning on the steamer Spokane that the deckhands and dock work CTS of the Canadian Pacific Com pany, who have been on strike at Vancouver for the past several weeks have returned to work, the Canadian Pacific Company granting all of their demands.
 The deck hands went out on a strike several weeks ago and since that time the officers of the ships have been handling the freight both into the steamers at Vancouver and out of them at Alaskan ports. The strike also resulted in the cancell- ing of the sailing for Alaska of the Princess Charlotte, which was scheduled to come on this run. The company was unable to secure a crew for the boat.
