 PETROGRAD, July 10.-The Ameri- | can commission headed by Elihu Root has completed a months survey of all phases of the Russian situation and is confident in the belief that the nation will successfully emerge from it's in ternal difficulties and be able to re- direct it's forces toward the energetic pursuance of the war.
 The optimistic conclusions of the commission are not derived alone from consultations with the governmental heads but are based more largely upon the spirit and determination of the people which has been encountered in public organizations, political and in dustrial councils and in all the delega- tions properly representative of the temper of the nation as a whole.
 The members of the commission eX- press the opinion that beneath the fe- verish conflict of words and ambiguity of terms which are the natural result of the newly acquired free speech, lies a patriotic purpose not essentially diff ferent from the other democracieS at war with autocratic ideas. There is, however, no disposition on the part of the commission to minimize either the dangers threatened by the widespread German propaganda and pacifiSt agi ldllOn OT tlle ulI1lCuItleS III the way of transportation and the re- organization of Russia's economic life.
 The question of the food supply is, in the opinion of the commission, the most important problem confronting the country and unless some means is immediately taken to improve trans port, fall and winter will see famine in many places. MT. Root has made the following statement to the Associated Press:
 The mission has accomplished what it came here to do, and we are greatly encouraged. We found no organic or incurable malady in the Russian de- mocracy. Democracies are always in trouble and we have seen days just as dark in the progress of our own.
 We must remember that people in whom all constructive effort has been suppressed for so long cannot irnme- diately develop a genius for quick ac- tion. The first stage is necessarily one of debate. The solid, admirable traits in the Russian character will pull the nation through the present crisis. Ma tural love of law and order and capac- ity for local government have been demonstrated every day since the revo- lution. The country's most serious lack is money and adequate transportation We shall do what we can to help Rus sia in both.'

from these very causes the price of wheat has begun to drop, and if the farmer is to sell his wheat, either the speculator must return to the market to buy and carry on not only the normal flow from the farmer in eX- cess of domestic and foreign require ments but also the glut due to the re- striction upon the outlet to the latter. He must necessarily charge his toll to the producer and the consumer and this latter probably upon a more eX- tensive scale than last year. as his risks will be greater.
 Practically the export buyer must fix his own price for export wheat from the sole outlook of his own eli ents and and in execution of his duty he will in all Aormal circumstances fol- low the market down by buying only his time to- time requirements as he cannot be expected to carry the load of our domestic accumulation.
 Or, on the other hand, the govern ment must buy the surptus wheat at some reasonable minimum price, al lowing the normal domestic trade of the country to proceed with proper safeguard against speculation. Nor would the services of the speculator be necessary for the government should be able to stabilize the price of wheat without his assistance and can control the price and quantity of export wheat We are practically helpless to safe guard either the farmer or the con- sumner until the pending legislation is passed.

nor I hold this view. because l con- slider that the stimulation to produc- tion. if no other reason, is in the long run in the interest of the allies. There is however. a limit to price which so trespasses upon the rights of the con sumner as to defeat it's own opJecl through strikes, raises in wages, and social disturbances in the country. II is with the view to finding a solutloh to these problems, filled With the great est dangers to both our producers ana consumers that legislation has been nroposed and pressed for speedy en- actment.
 "6-The proposed food administra- tion has conferred with many hundred natriotic men. engaged in production and distribution and has investigated the condition of the consumers in many centers as we'll Many plans have been tentatively put forward and abandoned and others have developed, but ln any case none has or can be settled untii legislation has been completed. Ihree facts stand out plainly enough rom our Investigations.
 .First-That in this situation, the farmer will need protection as 10 the price of wheat; and second, that large masses of people in the consuming centers are being actually under-nour ished today, due to the exhorbltant cost of living; and that these conol- tions, unless some remedy be found' are likely to repeat themselves Tn even more vicious form at this time next year; third, the speculator, legltimate or vicious, has taken a large part or the money now being paid by the con sumer.
 "7-It seems td be overlooked Tn some quarters that the marketing Of this years wheat is surrounded with circumstances new to history and that the old distributing safeguards are torn awaf by isolotion from the recip- rocal markets abroad and the eXtinc- ton of a free export market and free export transportation.

to this Mayor Cain only smiled.
 Afterward he remarked Jerome citi Zens have demonstrated that they know how to deal effectively with an unde- sirable element
 Not a single member of the Industrial
 Workers of the World who had been identified with their recent activities, union leaders said, remained in town at noon today. Search was being con-
 tinued, however in all quarters of the town.
 The wholesale deportation was at tributed by leaders of the armed forces to the picketing of copper mines here and taunts of "scab" shouted at mem bers of the International Union of Mine. Mill and Shelter Workers, who
 voted against consideration of a strike
 jointly with the Industrial Workers of ,, the World organized here into the Metal Miners Industrial Union, No
 800.
 The strike was called Friday by the Metal miners and pickets were estab lished The international union voted against submitting the question of strike to its members. The metal
 miners were credited with a member
 ship of about 250. Their activity, union leaders said, caused many union men to remain away from work pend ing some settlement of the trouble. This crippled many smaller mines and | resulted in several closing down oper ations.
 Officials of the United Verde and l United Verde Extension mines reported | their properties were being operated tonight with full force for the first | time since the Industrial Workers of
 the Worlds strike became effective. A
 number of smaller properties. which 1 had been closed down as a result of the walkout, resumed operations to- 1 night and others were expected to re- open tomorrow.

to that buyers judgment and is with out voice.
 Furthermore, in normal circum- stances, United States and Canadian wheat is moved to Europe largely in the fall months, such shipments aver aging about forty million bushels per month and relieving a corresponding flow from the farms into the interior terminals. This year, owing to the shortage of shipping, the allied sup plies much proceed over a large period of the year and will not, during the fall months apparently average over 100000 to 25,000,000 bushels per month.
 We must, therefore, expect a glut Tn our interior terminals during a con siderable period. The financial re- sources of the grain trade are probably insufficient to carry this extra load without the help of spectators and moreover, the consolidation of foreign buying in the hands of allied buyers has further tended to diminish the re- sources of capital available by putting number of firms out of business, and limits the financial capital available
 In export trade.
 "The net result of this situation is that unless some strong and efficient government action is immediately set tied and brought into play, the Ameri- can producer will face slump in wheat and in any event the price of export wheat will be decided by a single agency and the American con- sumer will be faced with the situation that large part of the essential bread =
 stuff has passed into the hands of spectators; for some one must buy and hold not only the normal fiOW
 from the farmer but this probable glut.
 With great reduction in the con- sumption of wheat bread now frequent ly in progress, the employment of our
 mills must be greatly diminished and with the reduction of domestic flour
 production, our daily feed from wheat will be greatly curtailed. Therefore, we must induce foreign buyers to ac- cept flour instead of wheat
 5-In order to do justice to the pro- ducers who have shown great patri-
 otism in a special effort to increase
 production in 1917 and to further stim- ulate the efforts of 1918, it is abso- luteiy vital that we shall protect the farmer from a slump in price this year, due to a. glut as above or from the uncontrolled decisions of any one buyer. I am informed that most of
 the allied countries have fixed the
 price of wheat to the farmer at $1.S0 per bushel and many of their pro- ducers believe that as allies it is our duty to furnish wheat at prices which delivered to them, will not exceed their domestic price, in other words, about $1.50 per bushel, Chicago.

nations of working men, was had to- night when an implied threat was made that, unless the demands of the I. w. W. were met here and elsewhere in the metal mining districts, a sym pathetic strike would be called to tie up all freight going into the affected districts. It was also reported tonight that the 1900 cars of freight, fuel oil and coal which had been consigned to the mining companies of this and other strike districts might be delayed with out the necessity of calling a strike as a sympathetic move on the part of the railroad men and freight handlers.
 A conference was held late today be- tween federal mediator Judge John Mcbride and c. E. Mills, general man. ager of the Inspiration Copper company. This conference was arranged earlier in the day and was informal in it's na- ture MT. Mills coming down from Miami and conferring with the medi- ator in his hotel room. It was under stood tonight that MT Mills reiter- ated the position of his company in regard to the strike and said the orig inal reply to the demands of the strik- CTS covered the situation at the pres ent time. No further conferences have yet been scheduld although it is pos Sible the mediators may meet with the other general managers soon and pos sibly with the joint committee of the Mine, Mill and Shelter Workers. Little hope of settlement was held out.
 Governor Thomas Campbell. accom- panied by his secretary. left hurriedly in an automobile tonight for Phoenix on what was said here to be important business.
 Before his departure. Governor Campbell instructed Sheriff Tom Ar mer that the miners who were picket ing the mine properties were acting within their constitutional rights and were not to be molested as long as they kept the peace.
 This was the sequel to an order giv- en today by Sheriff Armer and en- forced by Chief Deputy Sheriff Bud Armer that but one picket could be stationed within a quarter of a mile of each other. The deputy sheriff was accompanied by 20 mounted depu- ties who appeared for the first time on the streets of Globe today. No ar rests were made and no disturbances occurred, although the pickets belong ing to the Mine, Mill and Shelter Workers union protested to Governor Campbell against this action. It was feared a clash might occur, but Gov ernor Campbell avoided this by his prompt action.

 CHICAGO. July 10.-Colonel Edward H. R. Green, son of the late Hetty Green, was married quietly today to Miss Mabel E. Harlow of Highland Park.
 Miss Harlow is Al years old and has been prominent in charity work here Colonel Green is AS years old and as he expresses it, now has something his millions could not buy-the content of a home.
 It was not the fault of many thou sand girls in the United States that Miss Harlow is now Mrs. Green, for during the last few years the Colonel has been proposed to by letter 5000 times. He vouches for the exact count. Just to show that there was one girl who hoped for a change of heart at the last moment, the colonel brought proposal 9001, delivered to him by mail this morning at breakfast, and made 1t one of his gifts to the bride. His other gifts, however, were more lavish, said to total $625,000 of which $500,000 was in cash and S125,00 in liberty bonds.

formidable nature in which the Ger mans sustained shocking losses without obtaining more than a temporary foot hold in these constantly contested pO- sitionS. The sector in question com prises the Pantheon farm astride the Chemin des Danes, and is menaced at all times because of the domination of it by the ancient fort De Malmaison, which is in the hands of the Germans. Early this morning the Germans open ed a most intense bombardment of the French lines and while the hurricane of shells was still falling, a German force comprising from ten to twelve infantry battalions, made sudden rush into the French position
 A brigade of the famous Chasseurs- a-Pied had occupied the sector and was holding the line firmly. The F'renchmen, however, were forced to fall back before the overwhelming num- bers which followed on the heels of the German shock units brought es- pecially from other points of the line to lead the attack.
 The Germans apparently considered their success certain as they brought with them quantities of barbed wire, trench mortars. boxes of grenades and
 
 s4ry to the rapid organization of the captured position, which, if held, would give them command of a large section of the Chemin des Danes. They failed, however, to take the French spirit into their reckoning. Immedi- ately after slight recoil the French chasseurs, aided by engineers and re servists emp .oyed in road making in the rear organized counter attacks and despite the most desperate resis- tance elected or killed most of the Ger man interlopers, capturing large quan- titles of their material and re-estab- fishing the line almost entirely. Hand to hand fighting with grenades and bayonets was still proceeding when the correspondent left this evening, while the shell craters and communi- cation trenches were encountered with many dead. Many of their wounded were engulfed in the waste deep mud caused by the recent extremely heavy rain. The French losses were severe, but nothing compared with those sus- tained by the Germans
 Six Frenchmen who were captured and taken to the second German line attacked the sentry who was guarding them and returned to the French lines after their escape. In the course of the fighting a young German who had raised his arms in token of surrender i threw two grenades, which he had hid den in the palms of his hands, among | his would be captors as they approach ed him.
 In general the figi.ting was so des- perate throughout the action that few prisoners were taken by either side.

of :. hours more than dozen enemy battery positions were put out of ac- tion. Many direct hits on gun pits were noted and virtually every shell fired, fell we'll within fifty yards of an enemy gun, although these guns were four to six miles distant and completely out of sight of the gunners.
