TURKS

WEIL FORTIFIED

I FOR ALLIED ATTACKS

Only Immaterial Losses and Gains Reported on Gallipoli by Correv, ipondent of Associated Press.

TURKISH HEADQUARTERS ON THE GALLIPOLI, Tuesday Aug. 24, (via LOndon, Aug. 28.)—After Inspecting earlier this week the Turkish front in the new area of hostilities near Sait lake, where the British landed troops this month, the Associated Press correspondent has visited Seddul-Bahr at the tip peninsula on the other end of the line. Conditions at Seddul-Bahr have remained virtually unchanged since the correspondent's last visit in June, with the exception of immaterial losses and gains of ground on both sides. These changes involve about 600 yards of trenches.

In the interval the Turks have greatly improved their earth works and bettered their positions in other respects, and especially by posting artillery, including heavy batteries, in advantageous positions across the straights on the Anatolian shore.

According to information from a trustworthy source, the losses of the allies in the attack simultaneous with the Anafrala landing were very heavy. About 5,000 men were killed.

Ovyipg to the effective fire of the Turkish artillery near Seddul-Bahr, the allies recently were obliged to remove several large camps.

There has been no rain since June. ,Water is exeremely scarce. Since August 21 the acticfli of the allies had been confined to weak artillery Are. Enver Pasha, Turkish minister of war, is here with his staff. He expressed great satisfaction at the position of the Turks.

The announcement Is as follows: "One of our submarines on August 16 destroyed by gun Are the benzole factory with the attached benzole warehouse and coke furnaces near Harrington, England. The statement of the British press that the submarine attacked the open towns of Harrington, Parton and White Haven is inexact. "The same submarine, on August 17, was fired at from a great distance in the Irish sea by a large passenger steamer, probable a royal mail steam packet, but was not hit. "The British admiralty announced on August 27 that a German submarine had been destroyed and sunk off Ostend by a British Zeppelin. This is inexact. The submarine was attacked but not hit, and returned to port undamaged." •I ?.

The first suit is in three paragraphs. Judgment in the sum of 83,000 as per contract yvith the bridge concern, $600 for another part of work done by the plaintiff on a sub-contract from the defendant company, and~$8,600 for still another part of the work, are asked.

The case originally followed the suicide of James M. Doherty, traveling man, and the alleged failure of the defendant company to pay the $5,000 on the policy which Doherty held.

Walsh, chairman of the federal commission on industrial relations, and the labor members of that body will present to congress as a result of the commission's two year investigation into the subject.

The report, embodying the personal findings of Mr. Walsh and concurred in by Commissioners John B. L/ennon, James O'Connell and Austin B. Gkirretson, was made public here today. 'The workers of the nation, through compulsory and oppressive methods, legal and illegal, are denied the full product of their toil," It was declared in the report and the resulting industrial dissatisfaction was Bald to have reached "proportions that already menace the social good will and the peace of the nation."

Responsibility for the condition undep which they live was placed primarily upon the workers themselves, who, "blind to their collective strength and often times deaf to the cries of their followers, have suffered exploitation arrd the invasion of their most sacred rights without resistance

RtJRAL THEATRE SUCCEEDS.

Professor Arnold's Plan Working Otlt .Weli In North Dakota. FARGO, N. D-, Aug. 28.—Farmers- »jl over North Dakota are becoming interested in Professor Alfred G. Arnold's plan of "Little Country Theaters" and a number of towns are enjoying drarriatic productions with home talent. The first thedter or this kind was started at the state agricultural college and the plan has been taken up in/a number of rural places.

The Idea is adaptable to community Centers, where farmers are in the habit of meeting at reguiar intervals, it also works well in connection with moving pictures. It is the purpose to provide dramatic entertainments especially edifying and helpful, to'farming communities, but it is thought, the larger towns may also use the idea to advantage. In a number of towns the small theater plan has. forked well the last winter, and will be made a permanent institution.
