Paris After battling 120 days for the hilly country between Sethune and Arras, the French forces are in posses sion of all the eminences looking out upon the plain of Flanders. Lille, Douai and Cabrai all are visible from here. Every position along the broad na tional road between Arras and Bethune has been won except Souchez, and last night another quarter-mile of trenches in the Souchez web was torn away. The attack was made under parachute rocket lights, the French burning buiBh white and the Germans greenish white, covering the scene of the des perate conflict with a ghastly glow. The most desperate fighting has-been along the short . 10-mile front from Arras to Aix Noulette, which began March 9 with the taking of a few hun dred yards of trenches on the water shed of Notre Dame de Lorette, where there are the ruins of an old Merovin gian military road. Every day since then some section of - tbe German trenches have been taken, lost or re-' taken. ; " Each side has been employing for midable artillery, both of small and heavy caliber, the French guns being somewhat the more numerous and served with unlimited quantities of high-explosive shels. A correspondent of the Associated Press went through five or six miles of the trenches formerly held by the Ger mans and reconstructed by the French. Upward of 100,000 Germans have fallen or been captured in these trenches, according to the French offi cial count, since the second week of March. The - French losses, the cor respondent was confidentially informed, while serious, have been much smaller than those of the Germans. There are thickets of little crosses made of twigs tied together marking graves between the trenches. Some of these graves have been torn up by the shell fire. Two-cent Rate Causes Railroads to Withdraw Many Public Privileges Chicago W. J. Cannon, assistant general passenger agent of the Chi cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad, continuing his testimony in the west ern passenger rate hearing here, said the two-cent fare laws had wiped out the practice of granting special rates to fairs, conventions and resorts where the hauls are short ones. Experience," he said "has proved that the institution of reductions like tourists fares has generally stimulated travel and as a large percentage is carried on regular trains the railroads can afford to make such reductions. Tourist fares of all characters are open to the public ' and necessarily reduced the average rate per mile. Homeseek- ers' fares, which Bpply to round-trip tickets, have been made for many years to the West, Southwest and Northwest, and the demand continues. The carriers are vitallv interested in inducing settlers to take up or pur chase land. Experience shows that the bargain rate principle of granting such con cessions on certain days is a factor of consequence in accomplishing the de sired result.

German Reply Makes Conditions for Travel Under Own Flag or On Neutral Passenger Ships. - Berlin, via London Germany's offer, embodied in-the reply po the United states' note regarding the sink ing of the Lusitania and submarine warfare, was delivered to James W. Gerard, the American ambassador, Saturday night. Its essential features are: - " First, reiterated assurances that American ships engaged in legitimate, trade will not be interfered with nor the lives of Americans upon neutral ships be endangered. Second, that German submarines will be instructed to allow American passenger ships to pass freely and safely, Germany entertaining in re turn confident hope that the American government will see that these ships do not carry contraband; such ships to be provided with distinguishing marks and their arrival announced a reason able time in advance. The same privilege is extended to a reasonable number of neutral passen ger ships under the American flag and should the number of ships thus avail able for passenger service prove inade quate Germany Is willing to permit America to place four hostile passen ger steamers under the American flag to ply between North America and Europe under the same conditions. German Reply Viewed Here As Quite Likely to Bring Crisis Washington, D. C. Arrival of the press translation of the German note confirmed impressions which have been current m official quarters for several days that Germany would refuse to give the assurances asked for by the United States that the lives of Ameri cans traveling the high seas on un armed ships of any nationality be not endangered. - . The press copy arrived too late to be read by many officials, and those who saw it said they could not comment until the official text from Ambassa dor Gerard had arrived. Assumption of liability for the loss of Americans in the Lusitania tragedy was considered to have been wholly evaded by Germany, and the chief principle for which the United States announced that it would omit "no word or act" to see observed was viewed as having been passed over lightly. The general feeling that the note would be unsatisfactory and bring to a crisis the friendly relations that have existed between the United States and Germany developed more strongly in official quarters. Steamer Minnehaha Arrives in Port ' After Terrific Explosion and Fire Halifax, N. S. A bomb placed aboard the Atlantic transport liner Minnehaha,- probably while she lay at her pier in New, York, caused the ex plosion and fire at sea, in the opinion of the officers of the steamer, which put in here for examination Saturday with the fire still unextinguished. The explosion occurred in No. 8 hold, and was of terrific force, shaking the vessel from stem to stern. Those of the crew who were forward at the time were stunned by the shock and two sailors were hurled Into the air. Flames followed, and for two days and nights the crew battled to save the ship. " There is no doubt in the minds of the officers that Erich Muenter, alias Frank Holt or confederates, were re sponsible for the explosion, which oc curred at 4 :16 o'clock on the afternoon of July 7, the date on which Muenter predicted that some vessel, as to the name of which he appeared uncertain, would be destroyed. ' London's Assent Lacking. Washington, D. C Germany's pro posals of last February for the reopen ing of her cable communications with the United States failed because they were conditioned on the consent of Great Britain and the London foreign office, which never replied to the ne gotiations communicated by the United States. -State ..department officials made this explanation in the light of a published assertion by Herr von Jagow, who laid stress on the lack of cable communication as means of an ex change of views on submarine warfare. Food Is Denied Civilians. Rotterdam, Holland It la reported here the German military authorities in several of the Belgian provinces, in an effort to force the civilians to work for the army of occupation, have with held food supplies sent in by the Com mission for the Relief of Belgium.

NORTHWEST MARKET REPORTS; GENERAL CROP CONDITIONS Liner's Sinking Forecast. Washington, D.

Australia Demands More Butter, The strong California export demand for butter is keeping the Portland mar ket very firm and a higher range of prices for cubes in the near future is probable. The belief prevails in the trade that the 1,500,000 pounds of but ter already shipped from Ssn Francisco to Australia will find its way later to England. It is the understanding here that Australia butter shippers con tracted to supply the British govern ment with a large quantity of butter to make up for the deficiency In Dan ish shipments, and, being unable to complete the contract because of the Australian drouth, they have turned to the Pacific Coast for a supply. What puzzles the trade is why the American butter, if intended for England, iB not sent direct to London instead of by way of Sydney. Egg buying priceB were unchanged with the opening of the week. The poultry and dressed meat markets were quiet and unchanged. Demand for Fruit Is Renewed. That retailers of Portland sold up closely on the holiday nuh was indi cated by the good demand for fruit and vegetables on Front street this week. Watermelons were quoted lower at 11 to Z cents loose and 21 cents crated, Cantaloupes were firm at last week's prices. Oregon peaches were steady at 75 cents to $1 and California peaches at 90 cents to $1. Among the receipts was a mixed car of California apples, peacnes ana plums. There was a good-sized shipment of strawberries from Eastern Washington points, but there was not much demand for them. Raspberries sold readily at $1 to $1.10. Loganberries were quiet at 76 cents. A lot of fancy green corn arrived from the Imperial Valley and was put on sale at 76 cents a dozen. WaterJFamlne Is Feared.' Ellensburg Charles E. Hewitt 'of North ITakima, water, commissioner of Kittitas and Yakima counties, after going over water conditions in the val leys, sounds a general warning for all ranchers to be economical in their use of water. ".The reclamation is releas ing 2,000 acre feet of water every day in an effort to keep the ditches sup plied," said Mr. Hewitt "This is cut ting into the storage at a fast rate and unless there is co-operation among the ranchers there is danger of a critical condition in late summer." London Sets Wool Market Pace. The verdict at London has been ren dered in accordance with general pre dictions and if there were those who prior to the sale, were in any wise skeptical as to the maintenance of prices, the general support accorded to wool sales in London should be ample demonstration to them of the world'a belief in the strong position of wool, says the Boston Commercial Bulletin. Tbe sale in Sydney, Australia,' this week followed the lead of London. In Boston, too, prices are firmer and in some instances higher. . Wheat Not Badly Hurt. ' Eltopia, Wash. The damage Satur day night from a wind of hurricane proportions did not shatter the stand ing wheat as much as was feared. The early grain probably will be damaged from three to five bushels an acre. Turkey red and blues tem and the late sown Fife were not hurt materially. Tbe wind blew down several windmill towers throughout the district and but for prompt action a large grain ware house here would have been leveled. WHY FAMOUS PASTRY cooks USE : M Baking PdwbER The patrons of our first class hotels and restaurants are exact ing they demand the best Women go where the pastry and cakes are noted for their excellence. Men are attracted by hot bread and biscuits when fresh and moist and light , . . - J The pastry cook with a reputation uses K C Baking Powder because he knows that results are certain; every time everything is as good as his best ,;" -; . Then, too, with K C Baking Powder he can mix the various kinds of batter before the rush of the meal begins and bake as. needed so that every order goes to the table fresh and hot, yet the last he bakes are just as good as the nrst . - The reasons behind these reasons is that K C is really a blend of two baking powders. One commences to give off leavening gas as soon as moistened. The other requires both moisture and heat to make it active. Dough or batter will remain in a partially leavened condition for hours, and when put In the oven, will come up as light as if mixed a moment before. For cookies, pancakes, doughnuts and the like, which cannot all be baked at once, K C is indispensa ble. For all-baking thedoubleraise makes doubly certain. Follow th example of the professional ' -' 53 cook and your baking will be equal to hit. ' n . Brooklyn Navy Yard.
