Chicago, Sept. 2.-Under the cap

publication on a series of articles
based on alleged war profiteering be-

the allies the war cost the United
States government something like
SIG, 1893, 999, 999 of which about SIS
600, 900 900 was expended in purchas-
es of materials, the first article as
serts.
Life and property, men and NUM-
tons, won the war, the article says.
1t then tells of a lieutenant, worn out
with fighting who during his rest per-
iod back of the lines continued to
make out reports, one of which failed
to report loss Of two rifles. The price
of these rifles was deducted from his
pay. The article declares that officers
at the front sometimes were tempted
to believe that the government re-
garded property as more valuable
than lives.
Treatment accorded fighting men is
compared with that given to rich and
powerful companies at home, which
furnished food. An instance is cited
in which it is charged that several
million cans Of rotten food were sold
to the government for $4,000, 900. The
charges say further that despite a
congressional report that this food
was packed knowingly fer sale TO the
army, the courts have tn S far been
denied the opportunity of deciding the
case. The article asks whether equal
justice was meeted out to the soldiers
and to the food sellers.

to word received here yesterday. The

The ledge on which the strike was
made appears to be continuation
of the Gunsight ledge, the reports
say. Tht property is only a short
distance west of the old Gunsight,
there being but one group of claims
between the properties.
Belief that the ore would run into
the hundreds of ounces of silver to

men: No assay figures yet are avail

close to the surface, Mr.. Sayers said,
